I’m not even joking this MAP brought me to tears. The concept of Jayfeather being Rock was outstanding and it worked so well, and the thought of the constant loop broke my heart. The seeking of vengeance from both sides bringing on the loop was such good storytelling, and the animators did so damn well portraying every emotion and scene. Well done CheetehZ, and well done to the participants, this was gorgeous, and I won’t be forgetting this.
One thing I didn't notice in the first time is the fact of the start of the MAP is actually an auternative final where Fallenleafs doesn't save Rock and leaves him to die in the mud, my mind is 🤯🤯🤯 now
Damnnn I didn't watch the whole storyboard nor read the script and BRO Jayfeather being Rock just caught me SO off-guard, that was the plot twist of the century holy shit
That caught me so off guard too, I was speechless :O BUT it makes so much sense?? He had the stick, he was blind, he was connected to the past and to the tunnels... honestly, Warriors did a missed opportunity here!
Most AU maps are extremely hard to follow without reading paragraphs of context. This one is absolutely fantastic though, made sense all the way through and was gorgeous on top of it~
I just rewatched it a few times and I understood. I really love writing and I've seen many stories like this, but this one is really well written and pretty genius.
It's kinda crazy because I feel people forget that time travel was actually a thing in the series (not something made up with the whole Time Machine AU maps) And yes, it would have been cool to see more of it in the canon, but I suppose Jayfeather being able to go back in time was because he had the stars in his paws, he was an important cat of a prophecy.
@@jazzycat1309 hes still blind! the reason he looks around or even directly looks at fallenleaves in some scenes is because he hears fallenleaves. also blind people can look around lol
Ending the cycle, healing, hurting, revenge, the five stages of grief, everything about this map puts the greatest aspects of a cinematic masterpiece into a 2 minute work of art and I’m here for it
This is actually gorgeous. The animation, the smooth storytelling, and the way it portrayed Jayfeather’s panic/anger at Rock for not letting him risk himself for Fallenleaves was amazing. The fact Jayfeather’s blind and the frustration he must have felt to not be able to see Fallenleaves in the water, of how he must have dreaded him being so close to grab yet he literally couldn’t find him. And how he might have been able to save him had he not been dragged back up himself and the possible guilt, i can’t describe it but that part nearly brought me to tears. This MAP is definitely one of the best in Warriors animations.
I have traveled so long.. trying to find a masterpiece.. looks like i finally found it! I honestly cant believe my eyes, this looks AMAZING! I have seen some of the parts and WOW, they all are so unique! Everyone should be proud of themselves
This ain't a map- No, this was a MOVIE This was actually amazing, Ik a lot of people already said this but the idea of Jayfeather actually being Rock was amazing, and each and every part was amazing! Each part of this MAP was just great!
I'm at a loss for words, every single part is just gorgeous and the editing and backgrounds AND LIGHTING AND ATMOSPHERE,, yet another masterpiece!!!!!!!!!!! All of these maps belong in warrior cat history
The fallenleaves/flametail and jayfeather/rock is a really creative idea!! I absolutely love this MAP, the Valentines Day map thingie is so great. Your maps are my favorite!! This is my new favorite song C:
ONE OF MY FAVOURITE MAPS EVER!! Seriously the plot is so well thought out, all the sets and character designs are gorgeous... who knew that the battle cats could be this interesting?? Thanks so much for having me Cheetz!
Was an HONOUR to participate in this MAP, I am SO SO EXCITED to see it all put together, I already knows its going to look flippin beautiful! That thumbnail too oh WoW ?!
I don't know if I have ever seen a Warriors MAP so creative and thought out, it actually made me think and analyze what was happening, and it was just an absolute gorgeous thing to watch. Thank you for all the talented animators who did so well to make this, and again kudos to Cheeteh for just making these stellar pieces of art. I hope to join one of these MAPs one day, but until then, keep up the great work!!
I’m generally most of a ghost follower but I couldn’t just watch this map and say nothing about it. It is one of the most beautiful and breathtaking map I’ve ever seen. All the animators did an incredible work, I can’t even express the emotions it brought me, and the host always has so great ideas, we can never be disappointed. Seeing this project take form and ending up so amazing was a real pleasure. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to watch this incredible work of art ! 😍
Wow. This might just be the best warrior cats map I’ve ever seen! The parts flow along so smoothly,,, the story was amazing and I wasn’t expecting that since I didn’t read the script for it. I don’t even need to now, this map perfectly portrays what’s going on and I don’t even need to read anything. You can tell how hard the hosts worked on this map and all the other participants too!! Outstanding job to everyone to participated in this map!!
This MAP was very, very well done! Everyone who took part from the thumbnails to the animation, and the overall final product did a marvelous job and it is very impressive to see it all come together. To end off, I just wanted to give my congratulations to all who participated and say they should all be very proud of themselves and the work they have done. Never stop doing what you love cause your skills can contribute to more masterpieces such as this!!
I seriously can not get over the cute interaction in the beginning, it was just too great! I just can't get over the creativity of this story! It's such a nice twist on things, that has both it's ups and downs! This was just so emotional, and it's truly hard to not shed a tear at the end! Amazing map everyone!
CHEEETZ it was such a great time being apart of this map and seeing everyone work on it and the progress has been so nice to see and seeing people work together is jsut a a a a athank you again for having me in the map
I have no words. The amount of effort, passion & love put into this is amazing! the story kind of reminds me of a post by captain-lovelace that goes: A time loop story takes the fact that any story can be reread, rewatched, relistened to forever without ever changing the end, and makes that a literal function of the story, the infinite repeatability becoming the driving factor. And then the story says "but what if the infinite repeating cycles did change? What if it was possible to get it right, to break the loop, to free yourself from the narrative? What if the universe (the reader, the author) wants you to get it right, no matter the cost?" i'm happy they got it right in the end
this map was such a joy to be a part of, everyone was so supportive and it was amazing to see it come together under such a short span of time!! thank you for having me among this amazing group of artists!
Lemme just say this. This is the most gorgeous Warriors MAP i have ever seen - and I've seen a few. It has probably the most creative and moving concept - focusing on Jayfeather/Rock and Fallen Leaves' relationship, and the neverending loop of revenge and death,,, it has stunned me to words. The fact that Jay is Rock is such an intricate concept that really should be explored more in the books. The whole aesthetic, the designs, the pace, the animation,, just so fluid and beautiful. I can't wait to watch this over and over again
the time loop concept is absolutely ingenious and it's pulled off SO well by everyone!! I can't think of another MAP with as much wonderful & deep storytelling. A masterpiece!! 💖👏👏👏
5:41 I love how in this part it can look like they're both trying to reach each other on either side of their deaths. (Jayfeather trying to reach fallenleaves while he's drowning, but can also look like him falling from the cliff to the fire.)
dude, it's so beautiful.. all the authors are in this map.. simply.. in general, it's just a MASTERPIECE!!! I already cried out of sentimentality at the end
im so honored to have helped out with this wonderful project!! everyone put so much hard work into their parts and it truly paid off, the final piece is absolutely stunning! i'm so proud of everyone!!! and thank you so much for having me
@@MimiDoesntRespondWait really? I thought of Flametail because he's the cat who fell through the ice in the books, but he does kind of look like Fallen Leaves.
GOD THIS MAP WAS SO STUNNING AND GAVE ME LITERAL CHILLS NO JOKE The emotion was so well achieved by the animators and everyone did such an incredible job. The relationship between these two shown is incredible and the concept of jayfeather being rock is so interesting!!! This is probably one of my personal favorites I’m so excited to see the next project!!
This map is beautiful, everyone did such a good job. The plot is easy to follow and just so emotional. I absolutely love the repeated scenes but every time it's shown there's a slight difference to it, it's amazing!!!
THIS WAS SO HEARTBREAKING AND HEARTWARMINGGGGG, THE FRIENDSHIP GOING ON IN THIS IS ADORABLE! THE IDEA IS SO ORIGINAL AND I LOVE IT! THIS MAP WAS SO COOL!!!!! YOU NEVER FAIL TO I PRESS US WITH YOUR MAPS CHEETAH ❤️
Little details that, the cats, even when alive dont end up "paw-touching" each other, fallenleaves try to help jayfeather up, by giving him his paw, jayfeather takes it away. jayfeather tries to touch his paw, fallenleaves takes it away. this map honestly made me cry, by how they were stuck on this forever and ever loop untill one decides to make a change, ending it and taking them out of the loop.
Cheetah, I am very happy to have participated in this MAP! It was such an honor to have been in this MAP with many great artists through and through! To see the finished result really captured my heart and I'm thankful to have helped!! I definitely look forward to joining your future MAPs!!
i honestly would LOVE a movie like this, the fact that so many emotions are packed into such a short video is incredible, everyone did so well!! the story is AWESOME :0
The dedication required to get this map working really paid off. Everyone’s parts came through awesome in all the key points of the story and was Brought together by an amazing map artist cheetz. A seriously good work to be proud of.
This perfectly describes Jayfeather and flametail, even though in the map it was fallen leaves. Jayfeather didn’t mean to let flametail drown. He tried sav8mh him but he couldn’t. I love your edit keep it up!
Dang, I almost didnt think this would get done!! But goly this is such a massive project, it's incredible how quickly everyone has worked!! This is going to be amazing
I've grown up with Warrior cats fan made animation for years (I was 6 when I watched the first one, and now I'm 25 ) and I have to say, I've never been emotionally impacted this hard. I don't even know any of these characters, and yet I can feel tears coming by the end of this MAP. The choice of song, the animation, the story telling, everything is just perfect ! I'm so happy this MAP exists
5:24 oh god the portals growing hands ALSO THE PARTICIPANTS YALL ARE WAY TOO GOOD LIKE WTH The parts are so smooth/flow so well together and also the backgrounds are SO good Now like I’m just gonna watch this like 100 more times
Really amazing work from everyone who worked on this! I adore how the community can make such interesting stories with pre-existing characters come to life! it takes an incredible amount of talent and hard work! great job to everyone!
The fact that I wasn’t given the notification for this on my old account is very upsetting to me but the fact that I found it again at all makes up for it. I haven’t had a warriors-related story bring out this much emotion in me since DOTC. Well done to everyone who worked on this. It’s a story that people can actually get attached to, which can’t be said for canon warriors as much as it used to be. This brings out the potential this part of the canon had if it were just a little different and was given just a bit more time. This is probably my favorite MAP of all time and I don’t plan on that changing any time soon. This is legitimately amazing and the art is so beautiful and everything looks amazing it’s all beyond what words can describe honestly. Good job, again, everyone who took part in this.
God I love this map, the concept behind it is amazing and the whole thing is gorgeous. Cheeteh z has never made a bad map, everything is so touching and beautiful I love it! The concept of Jay being Rock is so so cool and I'm in love with it, amazing work! All of the animators came together to create something amazing guided by one of the most creative and cool members of this community. Stunning work.
the wqay hes pissed when he gets knocked over untill he realises its fallleaves and blushes 😭😭 also wanted to add that this is so amazing it makes me cry everytime i rewatch it 💗💗
Everything about this is legendary!! Atmospheric, breathtaking and emotional, easily one my favorite maps. Even the credits are beautiful. Fantastic work!!
There is SO MUCH in this MAP! The story is so enthralling, and each part tells it beautifully. Everyone involved (especially the host) clearly put a lot of time, thought, and talent into this. Cheers, this is awesome!
This MAP is absolutely stunning! I've never seen anything quite like it before, especially with Warriors. All of the animators did amazing and I loved every moment of it! The thumbnails are beautiful and the post-credit meme is golden.
I'm in love with Jay's fur! right under his eyes, it's so amazing. This whole story is so beautiful. The scene at 1:44 where Jay is looking at the portal (made by Turnip Studios) is so incredible! We need that in a movie!
This is my favorite MAP of the community so far. The fact that the loop kept happening despite their efforts, the plot twist with one of them turning into a different character and the fact that they both vanished by the end reminded me of my favorite show, Dark, and if you had that influence for the MAP, then that makes me extremely happy. However, if you have not watched that show, I'm still extremely happy that you thought of those concepts. I really like the storytelling in this aswell! I could follow well, and I usually have a really hard time understanding MAP storylines. This one was presented very well and in a really effective way! Oh, and of course, the animation is stunning; everyone did a great job!
Woahhh! This is genuinely one of the best maps I’ve ever seen! I love the idea of flametail trying to get revenge on jayfeather and then jay getting revenge for that and so on, this is so creative! -Sun
The storytelling is strong with this one Seriously, this was good, the constant revenge loop, the idea, the execution, it was all gorgeous, this was def one of my favorite maps ever!
oh man , cheetz rocks up to the party with their insane concepts and then the warriors animators are quick to follow to bring something so incredible to life, everyone should be so proud , all the little details shown in each part is just , mind blowing!! can we talk about how cool those credits are aswell ? it’s wicked !!
This got me legitimately crying as soon as I saw Jayfeather getting out of the rocks and understood. Very well done, everyone put so much emotion into this. Thank you, you broke me
I’ve been avoiding watching the individual parts for this MAP and it was so worth it (gonna watch them now tho so I can support the creators). Watching them all now, put together, really made it so much better. The story, animation, emotion, all amazing. I’m in love with this AU as well. Great work to all the artists and host for bringing this to life!
This MAP turn out amazingly!!! Watching the progress of everyones parts and now seeing everything all put together,,, just so magical. Thank you so much for letting me be apart of it :D!!
This was the first Warriors MAP from Cheeteh Z I ever watched, and the parts blended in so well together that the first time watching I didn't even realize it was made up of multiple parts. This MAP is my personal favorite, everything fits together so well! Good job Cheeteh Z and all the other animators who contributed in this project!
I was specifically avoiding the part playlist for this just to see everything together on the premiere and oh man was it worth it. This was honestly such a mind-blowing and intricate project to have been a part of, it's been an honour to see this map come together over the past few weeks! Congrats to all the participants again
This was a really cool MAP! Congratulations to all the animators who worked on this, and congrats to you Cheeteh for making such a wonderful story! With essentially three years of hard work this MAP shows everyone’s dedication and your love for it. I love the colors and when they both finally went to Starclan….gotta say I cried a little. It was really beautiful, and I cannot express how amazing you all did!
GOD!! this map came out so great! I've been trying to keep track of it's progress for so long and I'm so happy with all the talent and effort put into each part! The backgrounds are spectacular, each character moved so fluently as well!! The parts mix together beautifully well!! wonderful job everyone!
oh my god i had to watch it twice to understand the story and GOD when darkleaf and rock started fading away i actually started tearing up 😭 this was so beautiful !!!! i think this is the most peoplve ive seen work on a MAP project and everyone did fantastic with the sets and colors and just everything!!!
Omg.... This is... AMAZING this is so creative and cool, the best way to change the story, and I absolutely love this time loop, its amazing! And the end cradits were so cool too! Perfectly synchronized with the music! And the pictures are cool too! I love it when people who host MAPs include those at the end, this is so cool! Watch after credits pls, omg i laughed out loud! 6:46
This map has got me in TEARS. Every part is executed so well the visuals perfectly explain what's going on even if you didn't know the story. Bravo not only to the animators but to the storyboarder and scripter, as without a planned out storyboard this wouldn't work out so amazingly!
Okay... yeah... y-you got me tearing up a little there... even though the only character here I could recognize was Jayfeather. Well done dear. Well done. Now if you’ll excuse me I’m gonna take this box of tissues, this plate of cookies, and this plush and go cry in that little corner over there.
This map is flipping beautiful, it left me genuinely feeling sad at the end, it’s definitely become one of my top favorite maps, everyone did so flipping amazing! Definitely one of the top warriors maps
This is AMAZING!! The way you show the cat's perspective in each transition shows a lot of the concept in the book. I honestly feel like Rock should've let JayFeather grab FlameTail and then drag him out but the decision is already made...
I swear your maps are going to become nostalgic one day. All your map plots are so creative and you put effort into making a whole storyboard for them too!
Last school year I was opted out of standardized testing, and i kept rewatching this map during that time. I cried every single time, and this is why I love your work. It really REALLY hits you in the feels.
This. This is ART!! The color motif of ice blue and fiery orange just seeps into every part of the art direction, it truly feels so... complete. And intertwined. Just like the fates of Jayfeather and Fallenleaves in this. Everyone did an incredible job - such inspiring animation!
I love how all of these are different and the smooth animation! And how the talking matches the song. This was one of the smoothest animations I have ever seen!
I consider this a masterpiece. Such as the Mona Lisa. This is because it is a piece of art. All MAPs, all animations, I consider art. It’s just that this one specifically just *feels* like it’s art, this is absolutely beautiful
I have been waiting for this! Oh,and the waiting was worth it...CheetZ,your maps are always so gorgeous and perfect! Your such a big inspiration for me and for this comunity! Thank you for everything!

Same here!

One thing I didn't notice in the first time is the fact of the start of the MAP is actually an auternative final where Fallenleafs doesn't save Rock and leaves him to die in the mud, my mind is 🤯🤯🤯 now
That's probably the change mentioned in the desc. :3
I think it's meant to be flametail
@@Cloudywarrior1
It’s Fallen leafs, read the description
Oh yeah, so it’s like Fallenleafs is trapped in Flametail’s body and the same with Rock and Jayfeather?
I don’t think it’s supposed to be an “alternative” it’s just set up to show us fallens spirit
Damnnn I didn't watch the whole storyboard nor read the script and BRO Jayfeather being Rock just caught me SO off-guard, that was the plot twist of the century holy shit
The was honestly what caught me off-guard aswell. In the middle of it I was like "Oh my god, they are killing eachother over and over again".
Oh hi bloodmoon
That caught me so off guard too, I was speechless :O BUT it makes so much sense?? He had the stick, he was blind, he was connected to the past and to the tunnels... honestly, Warriors did a missed opportunity here!
@@HiHi-lt1cb TOTALLY!! Plus, they implied that Rock became hairless through the passage of time and still had patches of grey fur!
Same bro
Most AU maps are extremely hard to follow without reading paragraphs of context. This one is absolutely fantastic though, made sense all the way through and was gorgeous on top of it~
I think that Cheeteh is great at it in general
I just rewatched it a few times and I understood. I really love writing and I've seen many stories like this, but this one is really well written and pretty genius.

I didnt even notice that! I thought he was looking around for help.

THIS WAS SO HEARTBREAKING AND HEARTWARMINGGGGG, THE FRIENDSHIP GOING ON IN THIS IS ADORABLE! THE IDEA IS SO ORIGINAL AND I LOVE IT! THIS MAP WAS SO COOL!!!!! YOU NEVER FAIL TO I PRESS US WITH YOUR MAPS CHEETAH ❤️
Little details that, the cats, even when alive dont end up "paw-touching" each other, fallenleaves try to help jayfeather up, by giving him his paw, jayfeather takes it away. jayfeather tries to touch his paw, fallenleaves takes it away. this map honestly made me cry, by how they were stuck on this forever and ever loop untill one decides to make a change, ending it and taking them out of the loop.
Cheetah, I am very happy to have participated in this MAP! It was such an honor to have been in this MAP with many great artists through and through! To see the finished result really captured my heart and I'm thankful to have helped!! I definitely look forward to joining your future MAPs!!
No words, just awe and tears!!! 💖 "Windmills of Your Mind" was the perfect cherry! 👏
I can't wait! I've been looking at everybody's map parts, I'm very excited for the complete map! :D
i honestly would LOVE a movie like this, the fact that so many emotions are packed into such a short video is incredible, everyone did so well!! the story is AWESOME :0
2:20 is my favourite.. goes so well with the music the timing so good... love it!!
actually, this is one of the most beautiful and meaningful maps i’ve ever seen. the message in it is amazing.
The dedication required to get this map working really paid off. Everyone’s parts came through awesome in all the key points of the story and was Brought together by an amazing map artist cheetz. A seriously good work to be proud of.
This perfectly describes Jayfeather and flametail, even though in the map it was fallen leaves.
Jayfeather didn’t mean to let flametail drown. He tried sav8mh him but he couldn’t. I love your edit keep it up!
Dang, I almost didnt think this would get done!! But goly this is such a massive project, it's incredible how quickly everyone has worked!!
This is going to be amazing
I've grown up with Warrior cats fan made animation for years (I was 6 when I watched the first one, and now I'm 25 ) and I have to say, I've never been emotionally impacted this hard. I don't even know any of these characters, and yet I can feel tears coming by the end of this MAP. The choice of song, the animation, the story telling, everything is just perfect ! I'm so happy this MAP exists
5:24 oh god the portals growing hands
ALSO THE PARTICIPANTS YALL ARE WAY TOO GOOD LIKE WTH
The parts are so smooth/flow so well together and also the backgrounds are SO good
Now like I’m just gonna watch this like 100 more times
This will definitely go down in Warrior Cat history. Mark my word, this is amazing! Everyone did an amazing job!
Really amazing work from everyone who worked on this! I adore how the community can make such interesting stories with pre-existing characters come to life! it takes an incredible amount of talent and hard work! great job to everyone!
The fact that I wasn’t given the notification for this on my old account is very upsetting to me but the fact that I found it again at all makes up for it.
I haven’t had a warriors-related story bring out this much emotion in me since DOTC. Well done to everyone who worked on this. It’s a story that people can actually get attached to, which can’t be said for canon warriors as much as it used to be. This brings out the potential this part of the canon had if it were just a little different and was given just a bit more time. This is probably my favorite MAP of all time and I don’t plan on that changing any time soon. This is legitimately amazing and the art is so beautiful and everything looks amazing it’s all beyond what words can describe honestly. Good job, again, everyone who took part in this.
God I love this map, the concept behind it is amazing and the whole thing is gorgeous. Cheeteh z has never made a bad map, everything is so touching and beautiful I love it! The concept of Jay being Rock is so so cool and I'm in love with it, amazing work! All of the animators came together to create something amazing guided by one of the most creative and cool members of this community. Stunning work.
the wqay hes pissed when he gets knocked over untill he realises its fallleaves and blushes 😭😭 also wanted to add that this is so amazing it makes me cry everytime i rewatch it 💗💗
Everything about this is legendary!! Atmospheric, breathtaking and emotional, easily one my favorite maps. Even the credits are beautiful. Fantastic work!!
There is SO MUCH in this MAP! The story is so enthralling, and each part tells it beautifully. Everyone involved (especially the host) clearly put a lot of time, thought, and talent into this. Cheers, this is awesome!
This MAP is absolutely stunning! I've never seen anything quite like it before, especially with Warriors. All of the animators did amazing and I loved every moment of it! The thumbnails are beautiful and the post-credit meme is golden.
This is one of the prettiest MAPs I’ve ever seen. Amazing work to everyone.
The fading scene was so sad, but so well animated.
I'm in love with Jay's fur! right under his eyes, it's so amazing. This whole story is so beautiful. The scene at 1:44 where Jay is looking at the portal (made by Turnip Studios) is so incredible! We need that in a movie!
This is my favorite MAP of the community so far. The fact that the loop kept happening despite their efforts, the plot twist with one of them turning into a different character and the fact that they both vanished by the end reminded me of my favorite show, Dark, and if you had that influence for the MAP, then that makes me extremely happy. However, if you have not watched that show, I'm still extremely happy that you thought of those concepts.
I really like the storytelling in this aswell! I could follow well, and I usually have a really hard time understanding MAP storylines. This one was presented very well and in a really effective way! Oh, and of course, the animation is stunning; everyone did a great job!
Woahhh! This is genuinely one of the best maps I’ve ever seen! I love the idea of flametail trying to get revenge on jayfeather and then jay getting revenge for that and so on, this is so creative! -Sun
The storytelling is strong with this one
Seriously, this was good, the constant revenge loop, the idea, the execution, it was all gorgeous, this was def one of my favorite maps ever!
This is a masterpiece! The outcome is spectacular, the plot and the animation is amazing. The animators and you have put a lot of hard work into this.
0:54 really has a lot of emotion to it, the fear and imidiate response
oh man , cheetz rocks up to the party with their insane concepts and then the warriors animators are quick to follow to bring something so incredible to life, everyone should be so proud , all the little details shown in each part is just , mind blowing!!
can we talk about how cool those credits are aswell ? it’s wicked !!
This got me legitimately crying as soon as I saw Jayfeather getting out of the rocks and understood. Very well done, everyone put so much emotion into this. Thank you, you broke me
so exciting to be apart of such a big project with such rad people!!! so cool watching it all come together
I’ve been avoiding watching the individual parts for this MAP and it was so worth it (gonna watch them now tho so I can support the creators). Watching them all now, put together, really made it so much better. The story, animation, emotion, all amazing. I’m in love with this AU as well. Great work to all the artists and host for bringing this to life!
This MAP turn out amazingly!!! Watching the progress of everyones parts and now seeing everything all put together,,, just so magical.
Thank you so much for letting me be apart of it :D!!
This was the first Warriors MAP from Cheeteh Z I ever watched, and the parts blended in so well together that the first time watching I didn't even realize it was made up of multiple parts. This MAP is my personal favorite, everything fits together so well! Good job Cheeteh Z and all the other animators who contributed in this project!
this is so cool :o!! the colors were so pretty and everyone’s styles looked great together! these new maps are so creative,,,
I was specifically avoiding the part playlist for this just to see everything together on the premiere and oh man was it worth it. This was honestly such a mind-blowing and intricate project to have been a part of, it's been an honour to see this map come together over the past few weeks! Congrats to all the participants again
This was a really cool MAP! Congratulations to all the animators who worked on this, and congrats to you Cheeteh for making such a wonderful story! With essentially three years of hard work this MAP shows everyone’s dedication and your love for it. I love the colors and when they both finally went to Starclan….gotta say I cried a little. It was really beautiful, and I cannot express how amazing you all did!
GOD!! this map came out so great! I've been trying to keep track of it's progress for so long and I'm so happy with all the talent and effort put into each part! The backgrounds are spectacular, each character moved so fluently as well!! The parts mix together beautifully well!! wonderful job everyone!
oh my god i had to watch it twice to understand the story and GOD when darkleaf and rock started fading away i actually started tearing up 😭 this was so beautiful !!!! i think this is the most peoplve ive seen work on a MAP project and everyone did fantastic with the sets and colors and just everything!!!
WAAAAHHH THIS CAME OUT SO GOOD! Thank you so much for letting me be apart of this! truly an honor :)
Omg....
This is... AMAZING this is so creative and cool, the best way to change the story, and I absolutely love this time loop, its amazing! And the end cradits were so cool too! Perfectly synchronized with the music! And the pictures are cool too! I love it when people who host MAPs include those at the end, this is so cool!
Watch after credits pls, omg i laughed out loud!
6:46
Oh man this was a pleasant surprise to see in my recommendation this morning!! Wonderful job everyone!! This was 101% worth the wait!
FAVORITE MAP BY FAR!!! Everyones part were amazing and beautiful, the choice of music and storyboard just tied it all together
This map has got me in TEARS. Every part is executed so well the visuals perfectly explain what's going on even if you didn't know the story. Bravo not only to the animators but to the storyboarder and scripter, as without a planned out storyboard this wouldn't work out so amazingly!
OMG I CAN'T WAIT! AAAAA THIS IS GONNA BE AMAZING!
Okay... yeah... y-you got me tearing up a little there... even though the only character here I could recognize was Jayfeather. Well done dear. Well done. Now if you’ll excuse me I’m gonna take this box of tissues, this plate of cookies, and this plush and go cry in that little corner over there.
This map is flipping beautiful, it left me genuinely feeling sad at the end, it’s definitely become one of my top favorite maps, everyone did so flipping amazing! Definitely one of the top warriors maps
This is AMAZING!! The way you show the cat's perspective in each transition shows a lot of the concept in the book. I honestly feel like Rock should've let JayFeather grab FlameTail and then drag him out but the decision is already made...
Soo excited omggg!
I swear your maps are going to become nostalgic one day. All your map plots are so creative and you put effort into making a whole storyboard for them too!
WELP IM SOBBING NOW. The idea that Rock is jayfeather- the ending, the fading away??? It was all so so good. Emotionally confusing and- just beautiful
Last school year I was opted out of standardized testing, and i kept rewatching this map during that time. I cried every single time, and this is why I love your work. It really REALLY hits you in the feels.
SO SO READY FOR THIS ONE!!! AAAAA
HOLY HELL!!!! AMAZING!!
This. This is ART!! The color motif of ice blue and fiery orange just seeps into every part of the art direction, it truly feels so... complete. And intertwined. Just like the fates of Jayfeather and Fallenleaves in this. Everyone did an incredible job - such inspiring animation!
This is a masterpiece! All the animators did an incredible job, and you did an amazing job too, with the story, and the song fits perfectly!!
I love how all of these are different and the smooth animation! And how the talking matches the song. This was one of the smoothest animations I have ever seen!
I consider this a masterpiece. Such as the Mona Lisa. This is because it is a piece of art.
All MAPs, all animations, I consider art. It’s just that this one specifically just *feels* like it’s art, this is absolutely beautiful
I’m so glad this beautifully map exists! When i was reading PoT and Oots I was really expecting rock to be jay.
I have been waiting for this!
Oh,and the waiting was worth it...CheetZ,your maps are always so gorgeous and perfect! Your such a big inspiration for me and for this comunity!
Thank you for everything!
Wow. Everyone involved did amazing! You guys should all be proud. Especially the storyline, way more intriguing than the books!!
