A message to Lunepools, thank you, I can't say it enough but thank you for giving me this map to rehost, I've learned so much in the time that I had hosting it and I just can't thank you enough, your ideas are always so wonderful and I really hope you're happy with the final result, I wanted to be sure to stick to your original ideas as close as possible and I hope I succeeded in that regard. I send my best wishes to you and I hope you're doing well.

This is to VirtualAntlers, you (Chillyweathers) and all the artists you all did an amazing job with this idea, and it is, to date, one of my favourite MAP's. I've never been so excited to see a project complete, and I've never been so impressed by the final product. I hope Virtualantlers is doing well, and I hope they see this and know people care about them! :D Thank you again Chilly for rehosting this, and turning a good project into something great!
@@Xaurii I know I was so happy when I saw the first map call, since then it has been years, been rehosted, been forgotten about I’m so happy it is finally complete! This is an extremely iconic MAP AND it will be one of the great warriors maps
This MAP introduced me to this song, as well as so many of my favorite animators- I cannot thank the map host and participants enough, it is AMAZING Tl;dr YES YUMMY
Yeah, Ashfur had total emotional issues. I feel bad for him and even though it doesn’t excuse what he attempted to do i can still get what he felt from a human perspective
@@rinafae I'm mostly just sick of every other villain being depicted as murder edgelords and whatnot, like emo murder edgeboy scourge or psychotic 'nice guy' edgeboy AshFur. I don't remotely condone what he did but I feel like he could have been a good character if he wasn't written so poorly. To me it *really* feels like the Erins realized "Wait we need BrambleClaw to be the good guy" so they decided to make AshFur a psycho to counter Bramble's abuse to make him seem like a better option
@@rinafae they could have added a bit more to Ashfur's and Squirrel's story, fleshed it out more. Slowly let the attachment issues come out. I mean, he did lose his mom or sister early as far as I remember. So they could have used that as him being attached more, obsessively more.
I WAS ON THE VERGE OF TEARS THE WHOLE TIMEEE THIS is a gorgeous work of art and everyone did so incredibly well !!!! I can’t wait to watch this over and over for years to come
Truly a masterpiece to watch! Everyone did beyond incredible, the artistic direction was gorgeous and the hosts did amazing to bring it to life at last!
“Why don’t you love me back?” The words struck into SquirrelFlight’s heart like claws into a vole. His piercing blue eyes seemed to shoot daggers into hers, yet soft tears lined his cheeks. In his eyes, she saw her own, frightened and heartbroken. The question was simple, yet laced with so many emotions it was hard to control her own tears. Her ears flattened.
@@Moonwolf573 the previous comment was that if cats even knew what daggers were, which my response was do cats REALLY know how to form a hierarchy system, develop prophecies, and heal other cats???? didn’t think so
SOOO WHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY No but seriously this map is so amazing everyone did such an amazing job and it flows so well!! I’m so glad to be apart of this project, I’ve loved seeing all the parts get finished over the years and to now see it completely finished is just so cool!
Ashfur has allot of content, there’s no denying that. But this map, this was something that managed to feel so different from the others while still being about the same character. Congrats to the hosts, the animators, and thank you for this BEAUTIFUL work of art.
@@crisadence3707 honestly I think that's due to Ashfur being one of the few actually realistic/recognizably human character arcs that the series has to offer. Especially for a villan
That ending was really bone chilling - watching the blood start to form in the water as Hollyleaf flees the scene. To think that the murder happened during the credits is insane. It's such a nice detail. This turned out amazing! Everybody did so great.
I’m so obsessed with it because of how well the artist did at capturing all the characters involved’s emotions through their eyes. It was beautifully executed and so powerful
When he screams at SquirrelFlight so why don’t you love me back and then goes into a teary expression, I feel like I can feel how he’s feeling, it makes me feel sorry for him. ESPECIALLY with the bagpipes 😢
He didn’t purposely start the fire, but he did assist in an attempt to kill squif’s father and then was prepared to let her three kids burn alive because they dated for two weeks and then broke up three years ago. So yeah, I think t h i n k that might be why she doesn’t like you Ashfur.
okay umm--- I already know this will be a long comment, I have multiple things I need to say, so bear that in mind,, words can barely express what I thought watching this. First of all, I love how Brambleclaw was genuinely sad and remorseful when they found and treated to Ashfur's body. I have never seen anyone else do this before, but I just really love it! It shows how in this, anyway, he never really held any hard grudges against him. Second, I love how somebody finally showcased Ashfur as more desperate and spiteful, rather than just fueled by pure revenge. Like, you gotta admit, most depictions of the ol' fire scene, while good, mainly just show him more as just out for revenge. But I love how dramatic he got in this. Third, how he died in general in this. I haven't read PoT in years, but I swear wasn't one of the details of his death was that his body had floated a ways away and ended up where it was? So I like that detail, along with Hollyleaf cleaning the blood off immediately afterward in the water. just,, kudos to all the amazing artists in this, they did a spectacular job!
@Rose Skywalker The Weirdo yeah, I will never justify, or even understand some choices he made, but I thoroughly stand by looking in any fictional character's perspective that you can. Not always sympathizing or understanding a character's actions, but still understanding where they're coming from, is my personal number 1 rule for reading. So basically with Ashfur I'm always like, "ya got dumped, and are forced to live and look at her every day, but damn dude, don't attempt murder on most of her family!?"
let’s GOOOO guys! this was such a wild ride, tysm for rehosting this so the project wouldn’t be wasted! i’m sure that this is gonna be in my favorite maps of all time :)
I love the part at 0:32-0:47 when Squirrelflight showed up like "What's going on? What happened?" then Brambleclaw nudged Ashfur gently and turned with an "He is gone." expression and Squirrelflight shook her head with disbelief and regret and helped carry Ashfur.
this map doesn’t paint him like villains like tigerstar or mapleshade, but a lovesick cat, it kinda makes you feel bad for him even more especially when he gets murdered and his death is lied about. I can see why he came back in the broken code more clearer now not for just squirrel but mainly for injustice aswell, like this actually showed his emotions and not him being some weird yandere. This was beautiful and well done.
I think it portrays him as more of a crazy, obsessed cat who really needs to sort stuff out. The map makes it clear that Ashfur was incredibly sad, but the map also makes it obvious that Ashfur was NOT in the right to try and kill a bunch of cats.
@@indigopaws6203 yes yes I agree completely ashfur actions are not justified in anyway but you still can’t help but feel bad for him a bit but he was still a weird yandere
It's nice to see a map about Ashfur that focuses on his emotions during the arc in a kind of different light, mostly it's all "He was super angry" or "He was super violent" when this MAP says "Yeah he was angry and violent but he was also really sad about it and his emotions all came out in this one scene" The animators did an amazing job portraying his moods and emotions, good job to all of them!
IT IS SUCH AN HONOR TO BE A PART OF THIS MAP!! It came out so beautifully and I know it’s going to inspire and impact the community in a huge way, thank you Chilly, Lunepools, and the rest of my fellow animators for all the hardwork and patience in making such a beautiful product.
Watching Ferncloud in tears and Ashfur drowning makes me realize... *the background characters REALLY deserve better.* Drama can be necessary to a story, but Ashfur’s story and life has been pretty dang unfortunate and for what tho??? He was never my favorite cat and he never will be, yet only the *wonderful artists* that made this map possible can drag sympathy from me to one of the most *infamous* characters.
17 years old and haven't touched a Warriors book in years. I'm very sick today and I've decided to sit down and start rereading the series. Wish me luck. This map is amazing guys ❤❤
OMG, I WAS SINGING THIS YESTERDAY, IVE SEEN THE PARTS AND HAVE WANTED THIS TO COME OUT FOR WHAT FEELS LIKE FOREVER, IM SO HAPPY, IM GONNA CRYYYYYYYYYY❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️♥️❤️
This is one of, if not the best MAP that I’ve ever seen. There’s so much raw emotion that stings you when you listen to the lyrics; almost everyone can relate to that feeling of rejection, and that really shines through here. Kudos to all the animators and people who helped put this together, you did a fantastic job!
In some ways, I can relate to Ashfur. Obviously not the.. trying to burn children alive part, but I have my own Squirrelflight. I can understand his anger, but obviously I don't support his actions. However, This song hits hard, especially put into Ashfurs story, since I can put myself into his shoes sometimes. Everyone did wonderful on this map, and I'm not sure how my replay button isn't broken.
@@user-ws9ko1pu1y an animator! she does mainly dream smp animations, and she’s really good! she has either 1m or 2m subs, idk pretty much all the dsmp members know about her and she’s the most popular dsmp artist
HOLY FUCK. THIS WAS SO GOOD??? EVERY SINGLE PART WAS GORGEOUS AND LOOKED WONDERFUL WHEN PUT TOGETHER AA,, I STILL CAN'T GET OVER THE AESTHETIC AND COMPOSING OF THIS MAP ToT this is definitely one of my favorite maps of all time!!
The raw emotion put into this animation is some of the best I've seen out of any Warriors MAP. It matches perfectly with the vocalist's scratchy, sometimes too loud, sometimes too quiet, desperate singing. The variety of styles and absolutely stellar facial expressions lift this to such a high level, and the atmosphere of all of the story beats having their own color palette takes it even higher. I've waited years to see this complete and I'm just stunned by the result. Well done to all of the animators and artists.
There wasn't a single second in this MAP that wasn't incredibly satisfying to watch. Every participant did such a lovely job and it turned out beautifully! Stunning work you guys!
THIS MAP WAS ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!! the fire scenes and palettes and emotions are GOD TIER,, much respect for lunepools and hope they’re doing well, and thanks so much chilly for rehosting! you guys did such an awesome job, props to all you guys
This map actually means a lot to me. I’ve been rewatching most of these parts many times before the MAP was completed. Seeing the feelings and emotions of Ashfur really helped me to understand my own ones and to deal with them. Thank you all.
YOOOOOO I'M SO HAPPY TO FINALLY SEE THE RESULT, I WANNA CRY IT WAS WORTH THE WAIT, really, good job everyone!! 💞💫 I'm really thankful to Lunepools who let me participate in this project
@foxsnax did such a good job in the part they animated, showing so much emotion in the shapes and sizes of the eyes and head movements, to me was honestly a highlight of the whole M.A.P.
the reason why this is such a good map is because of the colours. it goes from grey to a bluish grey to a sudden orange/yellow/green pallete and then a purple/grey/blue with some pops of green, then suddenly very red and a lot of fire and stuff then purple then grey again its so gooooooooddddd
Me when I get my cat into my lap and she just runs away seconds later: SO WHYYYYY DONT U LOVE ME BACK :’((((((((( Really nice work everyone. It turned out amazing!
My cat constantly wants to go outside on the porch no matter the weather or time. He just sits at the door for hours and hours screaming his head off. And I’m almost certain that he’s said SOOOO WHYYYYY DOONNNNT YOUU LOVE MEEE BAAAACCCCKKK! Every single time. Or I’m crazy and just hearing voices again.
This song gives me all the feels and I can't- I found myself lipsyncing, just screaming with tears freaking in my eyes. The emotion in this is just so raw and powerful and I can't express how much I love this.
This was the first map I ever stuck with waiting for, watching the parts before it was released, waiting for it, and now rewatching it a year later. It is still absolutely stunning even after all these years, and I love all the parts! You can see clearly how much effort was put into this and it defiantly payed off
Favorite Ashfur map by far!! easily now one of my favorite maps!! Y'all caught everything perfectly, from the emotions that Squirrel flight felt, to how Ashfur and Hollyleaf felt. The only thing I wish I would have seen is when Holly comes back, Bramblestar claims he saw Hollyleaf and Ashfur fight. I think it would have been a nice touch to see Bramble hiding in the bushes and hiding his foster daughters secret.
Definetly just saw my number 1 favorite map. This project was SO much fun and I am so proud to be a part of It! I am glad you rehosted the map! Absolutely stunning, huge congrats to all the other animators. All parts are so beautiful!
The MAP is beautiful. It's one of the MAPs that has BEST ANIMATED EXPRESSIONS. BET this needs to be one of those popular MAPs. The concept and story line is soooo goooood!!!! Congrats to everyone that participated! This is a Masterpiece
I haven't felt this much emotion for Ashfur since I was a middle schooler reading the books for the first time and fully believing that he was, in fact, a good man (yikes; here's to growing out of that phase!) This map is one for the record books, for sure. An absolute masterpiece. Everyone involved should be super proud of themselves!!
Ahh after seeing all the work you put into rehosting this MAP and watching it come together, it’s surreal to see it finished!! I’m excited to see everyone’s reactions 😄.
After years of waiting, this was the most beautiful map I've seen. Its what inspired me to work on my own maps and join others. Thank you Lunepools and Chilly and all the animators in this for giving me the inspiration to start. Im so happy to see it done and it was just as exciting and amazing as I hoped it would turn out to be. Thank you everyone, and im so excited to see what else this community does :3
it was so awesome to be a part of this!!! everything about this project is just MWAH and i don't know if i have enough words for it thank you so much chilly weathers and lunepools, and every one of my fellow animators!!, for making this project a reality!
This is absolutely amazing! If I had to pay $50 to see it at a cinema, I would pay it and not regret my decision. So many talented people worked together to make this masterpiece and all of them deserve to be thanked and congratulated. So, thank you and congratulations! I hope everyone has a good day / night and stays safe!
Scenes with fire hit... More than I thought. Ashfurs expression in that ones is something, that is really a Masterpiece. Everyone has done a tremendous, immeasurably great job, and I'm happy that I was finally able, after years, to finally see the final work. 🤲💛
i’ve never felt so emotional🥺 Ashfur has always been my favourite canon character. i related to his hurt and how much he was in pain, the person i loved didn’t love me back. he was almost the only character i drew often back in my big warrior cat phase...i really loved this and it made me literally cry💔 especially when he began to sync the screams and cries, even if this was all drawn and animated i seen so much emotion in Ashfur’s face and eyes😭🥺❤️ thank you to all the animators yo worked together to make this amazing map of our beloved Ashfur!!!!!!!
I just LOVE this map. This is my number 1 favorite, it makes me love Ashfur more and everytime I watch this video, I cry from the inside. This is a well made map, and I now my favorite songs is Rory.
OHHHHH THIS IS ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL, FROM THE SCRIPT TO THE ARTISTS, RIGHT DOWN TO THE CREDITS THEMSEVES!!!! ever since i heard this song from the map's first casting, i immediately fell in love with it, and seeing it come to life here was so wonderful. will be watching this until the day i die
So excited for this project! I haven’t watched most of the parts because I’m so excited and want to see the true beauty for itself all together, but from what I’ve seen, everybody has done really great!! This MAP in particular means a lot to me even before it’s released because I ended up, technically, naming myself after this MAP! Of course I chose Rory because it just fit, but this MAP is what led me to really become attached to that name and to realize that’s what I wanted to be called, so thank you for that! So hyped to see the final product!
Are you KIDDING ME? this is INSANE. I was blown away by every second. The amount of work that everyone put in is crazy. Everyone COMPLETELY achieved the tone and feeling of the map. AND THAT CREDIT SCENE WITH HOLLY RUNNING AWAY? INSANITY. This is probably one of the top MAPs ever made. I’m so happy I got to see this for free. Great job everyone.
The finished MAP is absolutely amazing!! Everyone did such a good job portraying the emotions of the characters and the frame width changing for different times/scenes is so cool. You can really tell how much time and effort has gone into this thing over the years and it was absolutely worth it!! If I could make one small suggestion, could you add (starting?) timestamps to the names in the description? Since the parts themselves aren't watermarked and they aren't repeated in the credits it's difficult to tell who made what part just from a list of names, adding the timestamps should make them appear as separate sections in the progress bar on the video! o:
I kept seeing a lot of fanart for this map on twitter, so I had to come see for myself what all the fuss was about. And OH MY GOD yall did not disappoint. The emotion portrayed in this map is just amazing. The animators did such a good job there really wasn't a part of this map that I didn't like. This MAP was truly amazing and i would love to see more from the animators in the future for sure!
!!! IM SO EXCITED !!! this map is going to be absolutely BALLER, every single part knocks it out of the water without fail!!! :D !!!! easily this map is in the top 3, for my personal favorite maps.... and it hasnt even premiered yet!!!! GOOD GRAVY!!!!!!!! yall are too powerful- im so hyped to see the final :DD 💖✨
This is my absolute favorite Ashfur map, I love how everyone shows the feelings Ashfur feels when he's struggling with is problems, just GOD ITS SO GOOD
This and the amen crookedstar map are the only maps that I’ve ever cried to. I would bet money that Ive seen 90% of the maps ever made. BUT OMG I LOVED THIS, THE SAD SIDE OF HIM UNDER ALL THAT ANGER GENIUS
This is amazing!! Like seriously I’m blown away! I think everyone can agree this’ll go down in map history!! Congrats to everyone!! Congrats to lunepools and chilly! You all did awesome! 💖
It's finally finished :') I remember when Lunepools first uploaded the call, and since then I've been waiting for this! Everyone did absolutely amazing, and the end result was worth the wait!!
I've watched this so many times its freaking incredible. It seems like everyone who worked on this didnt just do their parts beautifully but closely communicated with eachother in order to make the transitions seamless and the vibrant colors of Ashfurs blue eyes and the fire match each part. Either that or someone edited them all to match at the end, either way bravo
Great StarClan, this maps was AMAZIIIING, I love every detail in every part and how every escene have it own color, when bramble discover ash body, is all in a grey-blue palette, when ash fur try’s to kill firestar with hawkfrost, is in a green-grey palette, when is the escene of: they’re not my kits* everything is red,and when holly leaf kills ash fur, all is purple... just for ending again in grey, with ash furs body in the water, is just amazing, (I literally talked about this map with my mom and she looked me like *what happens with this girl*)
while I love all the other parts, 1:17 hits hard too because of the last shot of ashfur on the ground. it's realistic it almost looks like a real (dead) cat, which makes it so much sadder. really well made map here
I've been waiting for this MAP to come out for what feels like an age. Rory has easily become one of my favorite songs in the meantime, and this has been one of my favorite projects to watch. Everything about this is flawless-- the scripting, the animation, the amount of emotion captured for sure. Thank you for seeing this through to the end, and thank you to all the lovely animators that took place.
IM SO MOVED YALL DID SO WELL. I’ve waited forever for this map to be completed bc I absolutely love Foxing’s music and Ashfur fits sooo well with it. This was well worth all the wait
I can never get enough of this MAP it's by far my favorite warriors map. The song just fits with Ashfur really well and all of the animators did amazing jobs

I love the part at 0:32-0:47 when Squirrelflight showed up like "What's going on? What happened?" then Brambleclaw nudged Ashfur gently and turned with an "He is gone." expression and Squirrelflight shook her head with disbelief and regret and helped carry Ashfur.
this map doesn’t paint him like villains like tigerstar or mapleshade, but a lovesick cat, it kinda makes you feel bad for him even more especially when he gets murdered and his death is lied about. I can see why he came back in the broken code more clearer now not for just squirrel but mainly for injustice aswell, like this actually showed his emotions and not him being some weird yandere. This was beautiful and well done.
But he is a villain for sure.
Hm..
I think it portrays him as more of a crazy, obsessed cat who really needs to sort stuff out. The map makes it clear that Ashfur was incredibly sad, but the map also makes it obvious that Ashfur was NOT in the right to try and kill a bunch of cats.
@@indigopaws6203 yes yes I agree completely ashfur actions are not justified in anyway but you still can’t help but feel bad for him a bit but he was still a weird yandere
@@Cloud-mf6bb he tried to kill off her entire bloodline because she didn't wanna be his mate. He deserves zero sympathy- he was crazy.
I’m not going to be able to make it because I have to work but I hope everyone else can enjoy this awesome MAP!
It's nice to see a map about Ashfur that focuses on his emotions during the arc in a kind of different light, mostly it's all "He was super angry" or "He was super violent" when this MAP says "Yeah he was angry and violent but he was also really sad about it and his emotions all came out in this one scene"
The animators did an amazing job portraying his moods and emotions, good job to all of them!
Yes!!!! I've seen the parts and I just love how raw all the emotion in this map and the song is, it's so atmospheric
I remember how Ashfur was when he was younger, I almost cried when I saw how he is now, I feel bad for him.
FR he was such a good apprentice and NOW…
IT IS SUCH AN HONOR TO BE A PART OF THIS MAP!! It came out so beautifully and I know it’s going to inspire and impact the community in a huge way, thank you Chilly, Lunepools, and the rest of my fellow animators for all the hardwork and patience in making such a beautiful product.
Watching Ferncloud in tears and Ashfur drowning makes me realize... *the background characters REALLY deserve better.*
Drama can be necessary to a story, but Ashfur’s story and life has been pretty dang unfortunate and for what tho???
He was never my favorite cat and he never will be, yet only the *wonderful artists* that made this map possible can drag sympathy from me to one of the most *infamous* characters.
ITS DONE?!!! I’ve been waiting to see this masterpiece for years
Sameeeeeeeeeee. Also hello there 👀
Hoi you'all
@@Rowananimations hey bro what's up
Same here-😩
1:28 The transition of HawkFrost is so good bruh. Props to the person who did that it gives me chills
tysm to everyone who participated!!!! this was amazing and immediately so memorable!!!!
17 years old and haven't touched a Warriors book in years. I'm very sick today and I've decided to sit down and start rereading the series. Wish me luck. This map is amazing guys ❤❤
OMG, I WAS SINGING THIS YESTERDAY, IVE SEEN THE PARTS AND HAVE WANTED THIS TO COME OUT FOR WHAT FEELS LIKE FOREVER, IM SO HAPPY, IM GONNA CRYYYYYYYYYY❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️♥️❤️
This is one of, if not the best MAP that I’ve ever seen. There’s so much raw emotion that stings you when you listen to the lyrics; almost everyone can relate to that feeling of rejection, and that really shines through here. Kudos to all the animators and people who helped put this together, you did a fantastic job!
the joint slay of everyone who helped to make this project ❤️
In some ways, I can relate to Ashfur. Obviously not the.. trying to burn children alive part, but I have my own Squirrelflight. I can understand his anger, but obviously I don't support his actions. However, This song hits hard, especially put into Ashfurs story, since I can put myself into his shoes sometimes. Everyone did wonderful on this map, and I'm not sure how my replay button isn't broken.
Guys I am literally gonna cry, you came out with this map, Sadist came out with the other one, dude I just-
Sad-ist came out with a map??
Ikr, so many good stuff at the same time :D ! (Warrior cats/dsmp fan my beloved)
who is sadist?
@@user-ws9ko1pu1y an animator! she does mainly dream smp animations, and she’s really good! she has either 1m or 2m subs, idk
pretty much all the dsmp members know about her and she’s the most popular dsmp artist
I think they're talking about the passerine animatic
“SO WHYYYY DON’T YOU LOVE ME BACK!!!!!????”
-he screamed, while burning down the forest and trying to kill her children
lmao--
Not her children lol leafpools actually
HOLY FUCK. THIS WAS SO GOOD??? EVERY SINGLE PART WAS GORGEOUS AND LOOKED WONDERFUL WHEN PUT TOGETHER AA,, I STILL CAN'T GET OVER THE AESTHETIC AND COMPOSING OF THIS MAP ToT this is definitely one of my favorite maps of all time!!
AGREED-
BET this will be one of THOSE popular MAPs. One of the BEST we had ever seen.

Hola buenas xd
The raw emotion put into this animation is some of the best I've seen out of any Warriors MAP. It matches perfectly with the vocalist's scratchy, sometimes too loud, sometimes too quiet, desperate singing. The variety of styles and absolutely stellar facial expressions lift this to such a high level, and the atmosphere of all of the story beats having their own color palette takes it even higher. I've waited years to see this complete and I'm just stunned by the result. Well done to all of the animators and artists.
There wasn't a single second in this MAP that wasn't incredibly satisfying to watch. Every participant did such a lovely job and it turned out beautifully! Stunning work you guys!
Can't believe it's been 2 years already.
I was so hypes when this map came out...
YOOO ITS FINALLY HERE!!!!!1!1!1! MUA THIS IS GONNA BE A MASTERPIECE
2:34 OMFG I'M OBSESSED WITH THIS PART 💅💅💅
All of us over here are so ready for this.
At 2:30, i loved the animators emotion so much it made me cry, everyone else had me on the verge of it but overall this was amazing!
THIS MAP WAS ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!! the fire scenes and palettes and emotions are GOD TIER,, much respect for lunepools and hope they’re doing well, and thanks so much chilly for rehosting! you guys did such an awesome job, props to all you guys
This map actually means a lot to me. I’ve been rewatching most of these parts many times before the MAP was completed. Seeing the feelings and emotions of Ashfur really helped me to understand my own ones and to deal with them. Thank you all.
YOOOOOO I'M SO HAPPY TO FINALLY SEE THE RESULT, I WANNA CRY
IT WAS WORTH THE WAIT, really, good job everyone!! 💞💫
I'm really thankful to Lunepools who let me participate in this project
@foxsnax did such a good job in the part they animated, showing so much emotion in the shapes and sizes of the eyes and head movements, to me was honestly a highlight of the whole M.A.P.
the reason why this is such a good map is because of the colours.
it goes from grey to a bluish grey to a sudden orange/yellow/green pallete and then a purple/grey/blue with some pops of green, then suddenly very red and a lot of fire and stuff then purple then grey again its so gooooooooddddd
2:12 oh the feels, a masterpiece 😻
Me when I get my cat into my lap and she just runs away seconds later:
SO WHYYYYY DONT U LOVE ME BACK :’(((((((((
Really nice work everyone. It turned out amazing!
My cat constantly wants to go outside on the porch no matter the weather or time. He just sits at the door for hours and hours screaming his head off. And I’m almost certain that he’s said SOOOO WHYYYYY DOONNNNT YOUU LOVE MEEE BAAAACCCCKKK! Every single time. Or I’m crazy and just hearing voices again.
2:06 omg love the flash and then the scene after is filled with SO MUCH EMOTION IT'S SO FUCKING GOOD
This song gives me all the feels and I can't- I found myself lipsyncing, just screaming with tears freaking in my eyes. The emotion in this is just so raw and powerful and I can't express how much I love this.
Ashfur: why don't you love me back
Squirrelflight: this mans is blinder than jayfeather
Underrated
This was the first map I ever stuck with waiting for, watching the parts before it was released, waiting for it, and now rewatching it a year later. It is still absolutely stunning even after all these years, and I love all the parts! You can see clearly how much effort was put into this and it defiantly payed off
Favorite Ashfur map by far!! easily now one of my favorite maps!! Y'all caught everything perfectly, from the emotions that Squirrel flight felt, to how Ashfur and Hollyleaf felt. The only thing I wish I would have seen is when Holly comes back, Bramblestar claims he saw Hollyleaf and Ashfur fight. I think it would have been a nice touch to see Bramble hiding in the bushes and hiding his foster daughters secret.
THIS LOOKS SO COOL OH MY GOD AWESOME JOB EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Definetly just saw my number 1 favorite map. This project was SO much fun and I am so proud to be a part of It! I am glad you rehosted the map! Absolutely stunning, huge congrats to all the other animators. All parts are so beautiful!
The MAP is beautiful. It's one of the MAPs that has BEST ANIMATED EXPRESSIONS.
BET this needs to be one of those popular MAPs.
The concept and story line is soooo goooood!!!!
Congrats to everyone that participated!
This is a Masterpiece
I haven't felt this much emotion for Ashfur since I was a middle schooler reading the books for the first time and fully believing that he was, in fact, a good man (yikes; here's to growing out of that phase!)
This map is one for the record books, for sure. An absolute masterpiece. Everyone involved should be super proud of themselves!!
Ahh after seeing all the work you put into rehosting this MAP and watching it come together, it’s surreal to see it finished!! I’m excited to see everyone’s reactions 😄.
God this turned about absolutely stunning. Everyone did such an incredible job!
After years of waiting, this was the most beautiful map I've seen. Its what inspired me to work on my own maps and join others. Thank you Lunepools and Chilly and all the animators in this for giving me the inspiration to start. Im so happy to see it done and it was just as exciting and amazing as I hoped it would turn out to be. Thank you everyone, and im so excited to see what else this community does :3
it was so awesome to be a part of this!!! everything about this project is just MWAH and i don't know if i have enough words for it
thank you so much chilly weathers and lunepools, and every one of my fellow animators!!, for making this project a reality!
This is absolutely amazing! If I had to pay $50 to see it at a cinema, I would pay it and not regret my decision. So many talented people worked together to make this masterpiece and all of them deserve to be thanked and congratulated. So, thank you and congratulations! I hope everyone has a good day / night and stays safe!
Scenes with fire hit... More than I thought.
Ashfurs expression in that ones is something, that is really a Masterpiece.
Everyone has done a tremendous, immeasurably great job, and I'm happy that I was finally able, after years, to finally see the final work. 🤲💛
i’ve never felt so emotional🥺 Ashfur has always been my favourite canon character. i related to his hurt and how much he was in pain, the person i loved didn’t love me back. he was almost the only character i drew often back in my big warrior cat phase...i really loved this and it made me literally cry💔 especially when he began to sync the screams and cries, even if this was all drawn and animated i seen so much emotion in Ashfur’s face and eyes😭🥺❤️
thank you to all the animators yo worked together to make this amazing map of our beloved Ashfur!!!!!!!
I just LOVE this map. This is my number 1 favorite, it makes me love Ashfur more and everytime I watch this video, I cry from the inside. This is a well made map, and I now my favorite songs is Rory.
OHHHHH THIS IS ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL, FROM THE SCRIPT TO THE ARTISTS, RIGHT DOWN TO THE CREDITS THEMSEVES!!!!
ever since i heard this song from the map's first casting, i immediately fell in love with it, and seeing it come to life here was so wonderful. will be watching this until the day i die
I especially loved 2:30 for some reason but you all did amazing!! 🤩
trust me, owlspark is just great
god the yelling part always gets me its so prefect, you all did such a good freakin job
SAME
This is probably my favourite ashfur map its just so heartbreaking I kept replaying it 😢
So excited for this project! I haven’t watched most of the parts because I’m so excited and want to see the true beauty for itself all together, but from what I’ve seen, everybody has done really great!!
This MAP in particular means a lot to me even before it’s released because I ended up, technically, naming myself after this MAP! Of course I chose Rory because it just fit, but this MAP is what led me to really become attached to that name and to realize that’s what I wanted to be called, so thank you for that! So hyped to see the final product!
The warrior cats maps are getting better and better everytime.
OOOOOOO SO EXCITING!! I remember look at MAP parts for this and now to get to see the whole thing is excitinggggg
Are you KIDDING ME? this is INSANE. I was blown away by every second. The amount of work that everyone put in is crazy. Everyone COMPLETELY achieved the tone and feeling of the map. AND THAT CREDIT SCENE WITH HOLLY RUNNING AWAY? INSANITY. This is probably one of the top MAPs ever made. I’m so happy I got to see this for free. Great job everyone.
I DIDNT EVEN KNOW RHIS WAS COMPLETED IVE WAITED YEARS AND YEARS OMG IT IS SO BEAUTIFUL MORE THAN I EVER IMAGINED
BRO THIS HAS GOT TO BE ONE OF THE BEST FREAKIN MAPS IVE EVER SEEN IT WAS SO WORTH THE WAIT HSHDJHSH
The finished MAP is absolutely amazing!! Everyone did such a good job portraying the emotions of the characters and the frame width changing for different times/scenes is so cool. You can really tell how much time and effort has gone into this thing over the years and it was absolutely worth it!!
If I could make one small suggestion, could you add (starting?) timestamps to the names in the description? Since the parts themselves aren't watermarked and they aren't repeated in the credits it's difficult to tell who made what part just from a list of names, adding the timestamps should make them appear as separate sections in the progress bar on the video! o:
I kept seeing a lot of fanart for this map on twitter, so I had to come see for myself what all the fuss was about. And OH MY GOD yall did not disappoint. The emotion portrayed in this map is just amazing. The animators did such a good job there really wasn't a part of this map that I didn't like. This MAP was truly amazing and i would love to see more from the animators in the future for sure!
!!! IM SO EXCITED !!! this map is going to be absolutely BALLER, every single part knocks it out of the water without fail!!! :D !!!!
easily this map is in the top 3, for my personal favorite maps.... and it hasnt even premiered yet!!!! GOOD GRAVY!!!!!!!! yall are too powerful- im so hyped to see the final :DD 💖✨
This is my absolute favorite Ashfur map, I love how everyone shows the feelings Ashfur feels when he's struggling with is problems, just GOD ITS SO GOOD
DUDE THIS MAP IS SO GOOD,,,, Everyone did such a good job and it is such an honor to be a part of it :'D! Thank you Chilly and Lunepools!!
This and the amen crookedstar map are the only maps that I’ve ever cried to. I would bet money that Ive seen 90% of the maps ever made. BUT OMG I LOVED THIS, THE SAD SIDE OF HIM UNDER ALL THAT ANGER GENIUS
This is just a beautiful map! All of the artists are so talented! ( Ah Ashfur, your voice is so beautiful 2:11 )
This is amazing!! Like seriously I’m blown away! I think everyone can agree this’ll go down in map history!! Congrats to everyone!! Congrats to lunepools and chilly! You all did awesome! 💖
HOLY SHIT IM SO HYPED- IVE WAITED FOR THIS MAP FOR SO LONG
It's finally finished :')
I remember when Lunepools first uploaded the call, and since then I've been waiting for this! Everyone did absolutely amazing, and the end result was worth the wait!!
I've watched this so many times its freaking incredible. It seems like everyone who worked on this didnt just do their parts beautifully but closely communicated with eachother in order to make the transitions seamless and the vibrant colors of Ashfurs blue eyes and the fire match each part. Either that or someone edited them all to match at the end, either way bravo
Great StarClan, this maps was AMAZIIIING, I love every detail in every part and how every escene have it own color, when bramble discover ash body, is all in a grey-blue palette, when ash fur try’s to kill firestar with hawkfrost, is in a green-grey palette, when is the escene of: they’re not my kits* everything is red,and when holly leaf kills ash fur, all is purple... just for ending again in grey, with ash furs body in the water, is just amazing, (I literally talked about this map with my mom and she looked me like *what happens with this girl*)
while I love all the other parts, 1:17 hits hard too because of the last shot of ashfur on the ground. it's realistic it almost looks like a real (dead) cat, which makes it so much sadder. really well made map here
I've been waiting for this MAP to come out for what feels like an age. Rory has easily become one of my favorite songs in the meantime, and this has been one of my favorite projects to watch. Everything about this is flawless-- the scripting, the animation, the amount of emotion captured for sure. Thank you for seeing this through to the end, and thank you to all the lovely animators that took place.
IM SO MOVED YALL DID SO WELL. I’ve waited forever for this map to be completed bc I absolutely love Foxing’s music and Ashfur fits sooo well with it. This was well worth all the wait
This map gave me the chills, my god, is this good
This map has been out for about two weeks and I still can't stop rewatching it. I'm so glad this map was finished.
I can never get enough of this MAP it's by far my favorite warriors map. The song just fits with Ashfur really well and all of the animators did amazing jobs
