I also made a thread about the 2022 version of this book last year, which is viewable here. So, I decided to buy the 2023 version a few weeks ago as well since this will likely be the last one for now considering that it relies on James L. Barry's comic art for the Warriors series and he stepped back from doing those this year (once again wishing him all the best on his future endeavours). This year only includes four of the short comics: the one for Squirrelflight's Hope, Graystripe's Vow, Leopardstar's Honor and Onestar's Confession, the latter of which hasn't gotten released yet in Germany (will be in March of next year). So this would be an exclusive first look for those German fans who don't read the books in English (which I'm not one of them, but I will confess to still not having read the book despite having a copy of it and making a thread a little while ago lol). Cover and Card: Winning Contest and Warrior Assessment intro page (featuring the Onestar's Confession theme): Going to explain how this calendar book works in the SqH section (or the 2022 thread on the previous calendar book can be read too but hey, this one has pictures lol). Squirrelflight's Hope section (December 1st to December 6th): The next page after each cover intro for all four sections features a basic character bio on one page and then a text titled 'What defines *insert character*' on the other one. Then it goes on to feature one double page spread of a part in the comic where people can put in their own text titled 'Your Mini Adventure' although the main tag line is always "Maybe the cats are just telling a joke?" lol. And finally, each finished comic section ends with a warrior assessment where putting the correct answers into the spaces asking about the contents of each comic will result in the letters inside the numbered spaces becoming a full sentence that can be put together in the contest section at the start of the book and then be shared on the German instagram page in order to possibly win a prize. Graystripe's Vow section (December 7th to December 12th): Leopardstar's Honor section (December 13th to December 18th): Onestar's Confession section (December 19th to December 24th):

For those who were curious, I translated the intro and some of the calendar using google translate, and a very limited knowledge of the German language. Note this is rough and I am using an unreliable source, but it should get the gist of what the book means: (edit: accidental keyboard smashes from wiping laptop) (also a work in progress) Intro: 24 days of Christmas can be quite a long time. But not with the Warrior Cats!
In the next few weeks, you can expect games, puzzles, and information about the heroes from four different Special Adventures (Super Editions). Get creative and think of your own manga and answer questions about those behind the doors (I'm guessing about the characters featured?).
And a very special novelty awaits you: even before the Special Adventure Onestar's Confession is published, you will find the cover and the manga in this advent calendar.
Purr-tastic, right?! (yes it is)
This year there will be warrior tests (assessments) again, in which you have to answer questions about the manga and enter them in the boxes provided. For each Special Adventure, you will find a warrior test. A Tip: don't be a mouse-brain, and pay close attention when reading and watching (looking at) the mangas, because you will answer all the questions with a purr.
Many of the boxes contain numbers. Simply enter the corresponding letters here. Once you have solved the puzzle and passed the test, you have the chance to win a fantastic prize! (had to monkey around with this sentence to make sense in English here).
The prize is a copy of Onestar's Confession, which is set to release in March 2024.
Squirrelflight infobox: Clan: ThunderClan
Appearance: Pelt: Dark orange with the colour of flames Eyes: Forest green Special features: A torn eartip
Parents: Mother: Sandstorm Father: Firestar
What Squirrelflight is all about: As daughter of Firestar, she didn't just inherit his coat colour, but also his outgoing nature. When she meets a group of strays, the Sisters, who live not at all according to the warrior's laws (the warrior code), but according to their own rules, she doesn't reject them. Instead, the Sisters become allies of the Clans. Quite the dad! l

Honestly 𝕱𝖑𝖚𝖙𝖙𝖊𝖗𝖋𝖆𝖑𝖑? I don't mean to be weird about it, but your willingness to share your honest thoughts and photos on warriors and warriors products always impresses me. You're so thorough, and you find the coolest things! Also, a warrior cat advent calendar is so cool in the most nerdy way possible.

Thank you, and don't worry, you're not being weird at all <3 In fact, I'm usually the one who's been called weird for taking so many pictures of merch lol. And yeah, it truly is. Sadly though, I've got a feeling this'll be the last one for a while due to James L. Barry no longer drawing the original short comics as of this year. But perhaps the German team will come up with another calendar format for next year, who knows.
