I think that Whistlepaw deserves to be a mc too or just having a PoV. In that way we are also gonna get the first PoV from a WindClan cat. More than that, is gonna be a PoV from all original 4 clans. Judging by how the books are most likely gonna be named after all clans, it's even more fitting to have pov from every clan (this counts StarClan too tho, but I don't want Firestar back).
Overall, do you think Whistlepaw would be a good mc?

Three protagonists are more than enough. A WindClan cat could be a pov character in arc 9 (if arc 9 is gonna happen). Whistlepaw can still be relevant, even if she's not a protagonist.

Well Im tired of the same trope with 3 PoVs. OotS was the only arc by far with more then 3 povs

I would love to have Whistlepaw as a main character. We urgently need a WindClan POV in the main series.

Maybe she could be a supporting character, but I think four PoVs is too much. Just because something would be breaking a trend doesn't necessarily mean it's a good thing. You have to be really skilled to handle four PoVs and I don't think the Erins have it in them to balance it out, or at least not in a good way, as seen in OotS, never mind Flametail's unnecessary fifth PoV.

I really hope there will never be four or more PoVs in one arc ever again since it was shown to be quite crowded while happening from Fading Echoes on in OotS and did not get written well enough to give all four characters enough time to shine in in my opinion. And don't get me started on Flametail's unnecessary perspective in Night Whispers. They focused way too many chapters on two seperate love drama scenarios (TigerDoveBumble and LionCinder) so there would be a danger of this getting repeated if too many PoVs are involved which could thus result in more filler than actual plot progression. I'm very certain there will be at least one new important romance taking place in ASC involving either a protagonist or major character as this has been happening in literally every arc so far except PoT.
I'm sure that Whistlepaw will get some scenes anyways since her and Frostpaw are medicine cat apprentices together. Perhaps they might even become friends although I kind of want Frostpaw to be a bit like Jayfeather in this regard and only interact with the other healers on surface level.

As much as I don't mind Sunbeam as a character in general, I don't think she should have been an option for the new protags, I'm tired of ShadowClan and their bs. They had 2 povs in AVoS, and then another in TBC, do they really need yet another one in ASC?? I don't like WindClan much, but even I agree that they desperately need a POV, and should have gotten one alongside RiverClan for the next arc. ShadowClan at this point is becoming the second default for POV's next to ThunderClan, which is annoying since they're just "edgier TC" anyways.

if it were up to me, the POV's would be frostpaw (riverclan), whistlepaw (windclan), and one of the new kits from skyclan. im sick of thunderclan and shadowclan getting stuff every single time...also flamepaw and sunbeam's premises sound boring and lame.

I wish that WindClan could have gotten a POV instead of ThunderClan, but I think that four POVs would be too much. I do hope that Whistlepaw does get to be a supporting character at least though.

I'd swap Flamepaw with Whistlepaw, but two medicine cat protagonists might be a bit redundant considering that they meet up every half-moon and update each other on their lives and Clans.
I'm happy with Frostpaw and Sunbeam from what we know about them, and am tentatively excited for Flamepaw. His apparent conflict of "needing to live up to Firestar" is what gives me pause, as he's pretty far removed from his grandfather; if anything, Sparkpelt should have been the one with this character beat. But who knows - maybe he'll end up surprising me.
