ThunderCats Episode 21 "Birth of the Blades" Preview/Speculation Thread (UPDATED WITH PREVIEWS!)

He has some long hair.

Yeah it does look exactly like one of the 3 we saw in legacy forging the SoO. Shame they didn’t take the oppertunity to make the sword forgers white tigers huh? that would have been a nice nod to Bengali’s ancestory and heritage.
If only I was a cartoon story writer…

Perhaps it senses the presence of MumRa as being nearby. Or the Sword of Plun-darr being forged from a star (possibly having gone supernova) has it’s own power and does not require a stone to power it as happens with the Sword of Omens. I tend to think if the Sword of Plun-darr has any of the stones added to it, that stone will enhance the Sword’s power further.
Or the crystals are in the mine are powering it up etc.

Yeas and the blacksmith forging the SoO is supposed to use the same enchanted alloy that SoPlandarr was made. Also, i hope we get to learn Leo’s female friend name. She is a cool character

I kept wondering if Mummra by saying the ‘The death of a Star’ meant that the Eye of Thundera or better the war stone that Tygus gets in Legacy is actually placed in the Star of Plandarr!!

To make matters worse, Leo has mentioned that Mumm-ra initially has used the Book of Omens to help pinpoint the Eye of Thundera!
Which means Tcats served Mamm-ra for way too long and were under his strict orders

I kind of thought her name was Panthera… :confused:

Her name is Panthera, but they never mentioned it in the show. We had to get that information from the crew.

Hey Balgus thanks for the update!
Could you please enlighten me a bit more with this info?? Who has officially leaked her name?

The crew told us last year during one of the chats they announced on Tumblr. But since I don’t have a transcript of the conversation you’ll have to make due with the fact that Dan Norton also called her that in his concept art. :slight_smile:

Thank a lot man, i really didn’t remember that! Pantera, it fits her!

I thought the name panthera had been known since the last flashback? Or am I getting confused?
Merged Post:
Wilykatfan, is it just me or does lionos hair look a bit longer in that screenshot u have? A bit less spiky and a little more like its heading toward the OS?

So far she has appeared only in Episode Legacy, where there is no mentioning of her name. Unless shown on the Cartoon it isn’t canon and we can’t take it for granted. But i presume in the next episode we will finally hear her name being called

Ah that is where I was getting confused, it was known but not cannon. Thanks.

Thanks Balgus and Lordore. I read a lot around and sometimes it’s difficult to remember what was learned where!

It seems the NS will turn from “The Lion-o Show” to “The Lion-o and Pumyra Hour”.

Too bad it’s not an hour. I wish it was!

I’m okay with it too. I love Pumyra in the NS so much! this seems like a good episode for them to develop something.

Forum completely infested by the Pumyra fanboys. Watch out for them!

We’re like ****roaches. We never die, just breed and hide in the cracks and when the apocalypse happens we shall inherit the earth.

I’m (sadly) one of them. I guess you should watch out for me now. You can’t deny she is a very interesting cat, though.
