Crow x Feather. Always.
I was so heartbroken when she died and Crowpaw changed suddenly so much. He turned dark again and grief never abandoned him, also making him neglect his new family.

Re: Leaf x crow or crow x feather
100% Crow x Feather
1) You can tell how shook to the core Crowfeather is once Feathertail died; to the point where he’s still grief ridden to this day (or at least, the newest book), as @Wingnettle mentioned.
2) Leaf x Crow felt terribly forced, and it seemed like a plot device for StarClan to just… act all jerky about it? Not only that, but it gave room for more Bramble x Squirrel abuse, which we hate to see. Like, seriously, StarClan lied about Squirrel being unable to bare children.. and like… the whole event just put way too many things in to motion.
And i know my arguments are lacking but im only up to the second arc so :’)

But yeah, 100% Feather x Crow
I think that Feathertail's death was so important that suddenly he fell in love with Leafpool to replace that loss with something very similar. The fact that this didn't work made Crowfeather even more frustrated because he realized that he would never be able to fill the void in his heart. At last he decided to commit himself entirely to his clan, so he chooses probably the first queen that falls in love with him and has kits with her; maybe to make up for his past mistakes (having abandoned Windclan for a Thunderclan cat, especially during a very hard time - the badger attack). However it's certain that the relationships within his family are broken and don't work.
(I've read everything to Dawn of the Clans, except for Crowfeather's trial. Please don't spoiler me!)

Also leafpool first went to crowfeather because she had a message from feathertail ;/
Late-ish reply but I think Crowfeather is great the way he is now (single), however I think i'm more partial to Crowfeather and Leafpool because he's had more experiences with her.
I think Crowpaw and Feathertail is definitely more "reciprocated" and an uncomplicated romance, but I feel like we didn't see enough of their development for me to prefer it (development as in them actually being ACTUAL mates instead of just being affectionate and leading that way)
Though he'll probably date Feathertail in starclan, I cant really imagine otherwise LOL.
Not sure if this is really a spoiler, but putting it here in case.
I'm more for the ship of Crow x leaf in Crowfeather's trial when they had a little cute moment when Leaf gave him some advice on Nightcloud. Other than that I would lean more towards him just being alone before that moment.
