RANDOM THING ABOUT "PUSS IN BOOTS: THE LAST WISH"--; In the song "Fearless Hero" There is a line that goes, "Who's never been touched by a blade/ Puss in Boots is never afraid,"
During his initial encounter with Death, Puss is cocky and lighthearted... until he gets that tiny cut on his forehead. That's when things changed. He had never been struck before.
But now that he's been touched by a blade...
Puss in Boots is afraid.
