Hi ya'll! Recently I've noticed parts of this MAP being reuploaded, both in edits and in its entirety. Many of the edits tag me as the creator and, while I appreciate the effort, I would much rather you reach out to and tag the specific animators who contributed each specific part. As for full reuploads, I'd rather that didn't happen. I don't make any revenue from this video, BUT most of the reuploads don't properly credit the animators and furthermore, those animators didn't consent to their work being shared on other channels. I really appreciate people respecting these requests and hope you continue to support the amazing artists that helped make this project possible. Thanks so much for the support and excitement around this project! I'm so happy people are enjoying it.
I REMEMBER WHEN THIS MAP DROPPED AND THE SCRIPT AND MUSIC TOUCHED ME SO........IM SO HAPPY TO BE APART OF IT AND SEE IT COMPLETELY DONE!!! GOOD JOB EVERYONE!!! 💖💖💖🥺
3:55 I love the detail with Longtail at the background.He remembers that she was one of the Swiftpaw's friends, his dead apprentice, and he looks so proud of her!
i have been following this map since i was in middle school, and now being a freshman in college. going from a meer spectator to an animator in the project has been such a long journey and i am so damn proud of each and every one of you for how long this has been!! hope all of yall enjoy the map as much as we have
Brightheart is a light that shines for Warriors fans with disabilities. I love maps that portray her and other disabled Warriors in a positive light. Her story is one of triumph and I can’t wait to see the hard work that everyone put into this beautiful project.
Fr... I have a blind left eye so she means so much to me and she has nothing we can hate on her... She may not be my fav but definitely the most special ❤️
I really like this part, 2:42 not sure if it was intentional but I like the way how Cloudtail and Brightheart each open one eye, and together they make a pair.
Some people think that Bright heart was being dramatic and here's what I think. What if one day everyone you loved gave you weird looks and never treated you the same ad you used to be. I think that when she went to meet princess (fire stars sister) and princess gave a concerning look at Lost face she felt hurt and when she went to go look in a puddle just to find out what caused it she felt even more hurt JUST BY LOOKING AT HERSELF. That's no way to live and I think that she thinks Swift paw would think the same even though deep inside there's more people that love her. Bright heart teaches us all a lesson when it comes to looks. No laser what you look like or where you've been you should always get treated the same as everyone else.
this map is so inspiring and heartwarming. i find myself watching people’s parts when i need my spirits lifted. so excited that it’s finally complete! congrats to everyone
It's rare to see maps with actual messages. Here, the message of "never give up" through the eye of Brightheart is heart warming and something we needed. I also see this map as a message of "don't be afraid to ask people for help" as Brightheart has cats around her who wants to help her, like Cinderpelt and Cloudtail. This map is so sweet with a adorable message and every participant really make this project alive with their parts. This was worth the wait 💕💕💕
words can't quite capture the feelings I have watching this. Everyone did such a great job, it was awesome to see the amount of teamwork and dedication as everyone rallied to finish, and the final product is very fulfilling to see. I love Brightheart and lept at a chance to animate her in a project, and I am so glad to see it to completion. The amount of emotion everyone was able to bring out in their parts really hits home, and getting to see Brightheart accept herself is the payoff she deserves. Puts this one up on my warrior animation hall of fame shelf where it belongs.
I stopped reading Warriors a long time ago, but I still like keeping up with these multi-animator projects because all of the artists involved are so incredibly talented, and it's such a pleasure to watch them come together.
BRUH I REMEMBER THE DAY THE MAP CALL DROPPED 😭 the way the song choice and the story had just hit me this story just tugs at your heart strings. 💖💞✨️ I had thought the map was canceled and yet here it is completed right infront of my face. Thank you to all the animators and the map co-ordinators for all your hard work, this is absolutely stunning and im so happy this probject could be completed after 4 long years, everyone did fantastic!!! Ill be playing this on repeat now 😭💞💖✨️
I remember seeing this MAP call and parts before I even started animating, and now to have had the chance to help with finishing the project and watch it ride into completion was such- an amazing opportunity and I'm SO excited to see the complete project!!
Thanks so much for watching! I'm so glad people have enjoyed this MAP and have appreciated all the artists' hard work! I wanted to answer a few questions that keep popping up: *Why's she missing an ear? Why is there no scar/hole where her ear would have been?* These designs are very stylized, both because that's simply how I enjoy drawing, but also to make animation easier for the artists. Details are simplified and omitted, while still staying true to the essence of the character. I know it may not be "canon", but that's the fun part about fanart--different artists have different interpretation. *Can I put this in an edit/on TikTok?* I'd really prefer you didn't, as this is a project comprised of many people's work. If you would like to use elements from this video, please reach out to each individual artist (they're linked in the description, as well as listed in the video both on each individual part and in the end credits). I understand people enjoy making edits and do them mostly for fun, but taking and reuploading people's art without permission and credit is very disrespectful and just not right. Please respect the artists and their work by reaching out to them personally for permission. (And please respect their answer, even if they say no.) Thanks again for all your support and please go and support the animators!
I think I can say without a doubt, this has become one of my favorite MAPs ever. From the colour script, to every single participant, everything was so well put together. The way you presented Brightheart’s character and the message behind the map is truly inspiring. Thanks for creating this
I love this brightheart design. The size of her scar isn’t necessarily realistic, but it’s easy to draw, maybe more animator friendly, and the severity of her injury is represented through the lack of fluff and ear on that side. Very nice. And the other scars on her body ofc. ALSO THE TRANSITION BETWEEN PARTS 4 AND 5? THAT’S SO GOOD OH MY GOD
agreed! i did expect the scar to be bigger but this is definitely easier to animate! considering there’s a lot of movement and animation i think it was better to draw the scar in the way they did!
Wow, I actually can't believe that this is finally finished... So many old map calls from years ago are forgotten and don't get finished despite the hype for them, and this map is one of those where you think for a while the project has slowed down and isn't worked on anymore, but rises from the ashes and suprises everyone with it's completion. Just goes to show the devotion to art this community has, and I'm so glad to see this finished and see so many great artists come together to make this beautiful piece of art. Brightheart herself has risen from her own ashes. Her story about overcoming her trauma and finding her own worth despite those around her having doubts about her abilities has always touched alot of folks in the fandom who have a similar story to tell. The inclusion of Cinderpelt in this project has always touched me aswell. So many forget that they're actually sisters, and I think it's a wonderful relationship to explore. Thank you, Beffalumps and the animators who made this completed map a reality, your dedication and creativity inspires me and everyone else here witnessing the premiere. Let's all continue to spread positivity and overcome our Insecurities and fears! ❤
DON'T YOU GIVE UP!! I've followed this map since the call was uploaded, from backup to participant to cohost! the whole journey has meant so much to me and I loved meeting and working with so many talented and passionate people along the way, and getting the opportunity to help create such a beautiful and heartwarming map!! the final thing made me SOB, there really is nothing else quite like this project. thank you so much Beth, for everything!!!
Unbelievably honored to have been a part of this project! Thank you so much to everyone, especially to the artists who shared a part with me, for their amazing work 🧡
I became disabled shortly after this MAP call first dropped. Seeing it complete now after so many years after seeing myself change in those years is just amazing …. As a disabled person this character and song touch me deeply and I feel so privileged that so many talented artists worked to bring such a heartwarming project to life. Fab job everyone
every time the MAP gets to the final chorus, i get literal CHILLS! i can't express how it warms my heart and literally makes me want to CRY. the slow transition from "i'll climb and i'll climb" to "oh but don't you give up on me", AAHHH MY HEART
I was extremely honered when I got accepted into this map as a kid, and super excited to work alongside many animators I looked up to! 🥺 I'm still super proud of my part, thank you for creating this project 💕
I gotta say this is one of the best Brightheart Multi Animated Projects I've ever seen in my life! I think it might be my favorite one, it's so well done, everyone seems to have put forth their best effort and it all flows together smoothly! I must say, if anyone ever deserved to lead Thunderclan it was Brightheart. Brightheart is literally the heart and soul of Thunderclan and she deserved so much better than she got from the Erins.
Absolutely MARVELOUS. JAWDROPPING. I cannot describe through words how much I love this project. Everyone did an immaculate job, from the hosts to the backups. I adore how much life and effort was put into this. The intuition and passion behind each animator is SO clear!! I sobbed sm, Brightheart I love u
i have no doubt this map will help countless disabled children and adults who feel ostracized from the world around them. the way brightheart's story of love, loss, and healing told within just a few minutes is outstanding. there's no romanticism nor is there any implication that brightheart is lesser after the accident; the only one holding her back in the beginning was herself. every single animator brought her to life in a way ive hardly ever seen before. congratulations and a phenomenal job, the wait was beyond worth it. 👏💕
this map healed me I was in a rut the same time this came out im so much better now. EDIT: I want to thank you big time. I was in a rut the same time this M.A.P came out, I was close to giving up sure I had people who loved me but my anxiety was getting worse by the day, minute even. Everyday I wanted to go to bed early to escape my emotions/anxiety. In fact I remember going to aquarium somewhere ( Georgia I think ) and I saw a homeless man, for some reason I was TERRIFIED i kept thinking. “ what if he takes me “ “ what if he hurts me “ this wasn’t the only time I had thoughts like this, I’m not targeting homeless people or men. I vividly remember being at my Schools mass and crying because I thought I was going to die. I don’t remember where I was or what I was doing when I saw this M.A.P but what I DO remember is it literally making me feel sm better. I viewed things differently I remember “ I’m safe “. So thank you so much. I’m so glad I can finally talk about because it was really hard before.
I'm so incredibly grateful to be a part of this wonderful project. I remember seeing the call first drop and absolutely loving the concept. Brightheart is a character very dear to my heart, her story alongside Cinderpelt's helped get me through a terrible mindset when I first learned of my disability. I still can't believe that I was able to contribute and bring this wonderful project back from the grave. Everyone worked so incredibly hard to get this beast finished, and it's amazing.
AAA the wait has been 100% worth it! This MAP turned out so gorgeous and I love the way how from the shadows of Cinderpelt's den the MAP moves towards the brightness of the sun - I think that detail alone makes this so outstanding ✨The colors and atmosphere throughout the entire MAP carry out that hint of hope from the very beginning to the end where it blossoms into its most whole form 💖 Brightheart deserves this spotlight, and this effort that has been given to the MAP and everyone did an outstanding job! I love how I saw new and old names mixed together, and throughout the years, it has been amazing to follow how this all has come together!^^ Thank you to the hosts and thank you to the animators for delivering this wonderful and gorgeous project to life👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙌🏻
I personally think that brighthearts story is the most inspiring story Erin could have made it relates to many people with disabilities with the realistic thoughts of these people and how it may take a very long time to work at it I personally don’t have a disability but I have anger issues and adhd and I often get bullied/made fun of for overly dramatic or emotional like blue star had called brightheart names but then it shows also there are people there I have a person there for me and I honestly couldn’t ask for more for someone like her
Yeah cuz it kinda shows that even though Brightheart got hurt really bad and is self conscious about it, Cinderpelt has also been through it before yet didn't give up no matter what.
yeah okay this made me cry. the killers have always been one of my fav artists so i was so excited for this map i went out of my way to avoid watching any parts so i could go into it blind. 4 years later im currently in the worst depression in my life and this still managed to bring a smile to my face. this song is one of my favorites and brightheart will always have a soft spot in my heart. all the animators did such a wonderful job- this project was well worth the wait ❤
I never thought a map would do it like that. The detsl,attention,wording... It was all like done like that... Thanks for producing such a wonderfull MAP
Born too late to the see the fandom's past, born too early to see the fandom's future, born just in time for a 4 year MAP project finished. amazing dedication to all these animators. GG
I used to be big in the warriors fandom, so i havent watched any related content in the fandom for a while, not since a couple years now, but to see how far the Art in the community as come truly amazes me, detailing on the characters/backgrounds its absolutely breathtaking to see, animation as well has definitely have that refreshing feeling, i really enjoyed this map and i was excited when i saw the hosting come out. Even if its been 4 years of waiting, it was all worth it, W's to all the animators/hosts that put there time and love into this project, you all did incredible!
this is absolutely beautiful. you can tell each animator put a lot of effort into detail and the animation! everything about this map is amazing, and i love how the animators worked together in it too, i haven’t seen a lot of maps like that! i truly enjoyed this and i give props to everyone who put work into it! thank you for sharing this lovely video with us ❤️ (edit: my favorite part was definitely 3:52 , the hug was just so cute!)
THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL!! genuinely one of the best maps ive ever seen. full of emotion and the art direction is incredible. truly stunning work. credits to all the hosts and the animators who made this happen.
Hard to watch. My vision gets blurry of the water. Absolutely amazing work with the animations, just so beautiful! Emotions of the characters fit with the song so well, and you can read the story behind the scenes from their faces! Good job every single one of you!
This disability pride month٫ I was finally diagnosed with Adhd. The message of not giving up and continuing to exist despite a disability or what others may say about it is just what I needed to hear right now! ❤
This map is gorgeous! Growing up disabled, I always clung to Brightheart. In fact, Cinderpelt and Brightheart were the ONLY young disabled characters I had. Despite everything that’s happened, she never gave up, got to find love, and lived an amazing life as a warrior. Seeing this brought back all the feelings I had while reading the books for the first time. Thank you to everyone who took part in this. HAPPY DISABLED PRIDE MONTH!
God the art in this map is beautiful. The attention to detail is outstanding. Brightheart is such an inspirational character to those who struggle with disability or trauma. As someone who's suffered from c-ptsd- god, it's so meaningful to see characters like this not let their past define them-- especially the part around 3:18 says so much and is so impactful.
Really struggling with depression, CPTSD and a whole lot of other things right now. I remembered this MAP and came back to it, because Brightheart is such an uplifting example of not giving up. I was also attacked by a dog and I've been dealing with nightmares and stuff. Never would have guessed when I was 10 and reading Warriors for the first time that it would help me so much. Fantastic job to all the animators, the way this is done definitely gets some emotion out of me. Stay strong folks. :)
This gave me chills this is so sweet, there are some really beautiful shots executed by the animators in this, this is outstanding and beautiful it makes mefeel happy :)
Can't help but notice an absolutely sweet lil fiuffy boy Cloudtail who adores and supports his cute and strong Brightheart!!!!! adorable sweety buddys💘
i haven’t been part of the warriors fandom for at least 3 years now, but this was recommended to me and i couldn’t be happier that it was. i cried twice because the art and the message are just so beautiful and it impacted me in a way i didn’t know animation could. the song choice is perfect and this whole project is fucking amazing, well done 💙
0:58 this moment between brightheart and cinderpelt was just so cute since cinderpelt knows how it feels to be crippled and feel so insecure. Its also ironic that their sisters.
I have a special connection with brightheart. One of my eyes is less functional then my other (practically deadweight if I don’t count the little vision I have) and was bullied all my life for it. Eventually I finally found my way around life and can live independently, and I also found a lover that loves me for me and saw through my disability ❤️
I’ve been following this project for such a long time now, and i’m so happy to see the map completed. I love the concept and storytelling of this map so much, and I’m glad Brightheart gets the recognition she deserves. The animators did such an incredible job on this, and every part is looking absolutely gorgeous!
As some one who has seen people not be cared for,I am very happy to see and hear you and the others tell me and anyone else not to give up up ourselves or others.Thank you for this heartwarmiming map.[Edit-Cinderpelt saying dont give up at the end was powerful]
I FREAKING LOVE THIS! i love the happy vibes, the animation styles, the simplistic designs, and the STORYBOARD!!! i feel like them meeting princess is so uncommon but so important to include! I LOVE EVERYTHING AAAA
Out of all the Brightheart animations I've seen this has got to be one of my favorites! The song fits her perfectly and each part is so beautifully animated and shaded. And the parts near the end are just so heart-warming! This MAP is amazing! The animators did a great job!
This turned out nothing short of stunning. After all this time through all the highs and lows of productivity, focus and motivation it really came together absolutely gorgeously. Everyone did a wonderful job, especially kudos to the hosts for pushing it through while being understanding and finally putting it together so wonderfully. Thank you so much for letting me be part of this project, working with you all has been a blast.
This map almost made me cry a couple times. It reminded me of myself a little bit (even though I don’t have a disability), and everyone who participated in this is so fantastic and talented. And this map is so underrated! Edit (4 months later): I watched this again and it still makes me cry 😭 Brightheart’s story is so sad, but she’s perfect in every way.
Wow a day ago! This is the earlest I have seen a map! This map is so amazing everyone did amazing and it shows Brightheart so much! This is one of the best maps I have seen!
Aww I cried ;_____; THIS TURNED OUT SO BEAUTIFULLY !!! The turn-around shots are breathtaking especially! Gosh, great job!! Thank you all for doing this! Q^Q
I JUST started watching and I’m already blown away by the fully voice acted intro Post-watching: I nearly cried. This is beautifully made, beautiful song, beautiful animation, beautiful designs. Incredible.
It was unexpected and very pleasant. This project is so cute and cozy) All these years of hard work have fully justified themselves. And Cloudtail is so cute here.
MY HEART!! Oh my gosh I have no words… I’m so beyond honored to have been a small part of this! The storytelling is gorgeous and it so beautifully flows together- huge thank you to Beth and everyone else who put in such a huge effort to make this map happen!!
God- that was a beautiful map, I can’t believe my eyes- it was too good. I’ve only seen two other maps that are the runner ups in my favourites, but this one sits in the middle. Brightheart didn’t deserve to get attacked that night, she shouldn’t have, but if she hadn’t, who knows? She would’ve ended up as another bland character. But the injury made her interesting, and it showed that she didn’t lose hope even in the darkest moments. StarClan’s Chosen is following very close behind this map, like maybe joint first idk. But honestly- if I could choose any map to watch forever it’d be this one, it’s so beautiful and all the animators worked so very hard on it, I’m proud to be apart of the warriors community, and maybe be apart of a map one day, but until then I suppose I just gotta keep working hard to build my own channel. I’m a mix of horses and warrior cats- but honestly, nothing beats the warriors community, even though toxic people exist, they exist in every community, we can’t let it stop us! I say- toxic people aren’t apart of the community, but they sadly and unfortunately exist, and honestly I’m convinced they exist to spread annoyance, so just avoid and ignore them. I know I’m just rambling in this comment, but I don’t know what else to write. Dear the whole warriors community, You are the best group of people I’ve ever decided to join, if you speak English or not it doesn’t matter, all the characters that we’ve met throughout the years will always matter to us. (Spoilers Ahead) We lost so many great cats throughout the series, Yellowfang, Bluestar, Firestar himself! But it all leads back to the tabby Kittypet that ventured out into the forest one day and didn’t look back.
This is soo relatable! And the ending, I constantly had goosebumps, because it can be hard when you look different. So, it stands out to me, and it gives hope to those out there.
JUST FINISHED THE PREMIERE AND OMG IM CRYING, you can see how much love went into this project and every part is so amazingly animated, kudos to the participants and all the four hosts that have been so patient, especially beffalumps that has been hosting this for all the four years!!! love brightheart love this map
tears were shed. seeing this map completed fills me with so many emotions. the map call dropped just as i started a new chapter of my life so it feels so sentimental to me. everyone did such an amazing job :') 💜
This is one of the best brightheart maps I've ever seen! The way it shows her slowly leaning to move on and get used yo hunting and fighting again was amazing! The designs were reconizable wich was nice too! Good job to all the people who participated in this map!
Not gonna lie, seeing this project finished and watching everything comes to life made me tear up ahah,,, this is such a wonderful wonderful map, as visually with every talented participants and hosts putting a lot of efforts in it, as it is in the concept and message Whoa,,,, 💙
Brightheart is one of my favorites characters and I love how is represented in this MAP, so I was waiting so long for this MAP, is so amazing this finally is done!! The participants did an incredible work in this!! 🥺💖💖💖
I still occasionally looked up the progress of this MAP, as I found it to be so inspirational, and I’m so happy it’s complete! Good job to all the animators and beffalumps!
I remember when this was posted and I just KNEW this was going to be my favorite MAP, I’m so glad it’s finally complete, and that I get to properly sob my heart out while watching it.
I can’t wait for this map , this map I’ve been waiting for , for so long and it’s finally complete I’ve seen so many parts of this and it is just touching
i remember this call releasing when i was in 8th grade and i knew it'd be worth the wait!!!! this MAP is just gorgeous from the warm colors to the character designs... i love how brightheart looks aughgghuhgh everyone did amazing!!!!!!!! gotta be one of my fav MAPs of all time
MY CHILDHOOD???? the true collection of everything the community is and everything it should be. Thank you to everyone who worked on this masterpiece!!!!!
THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL IT MADE ME CRY ❤️❤️❤️ BRIGHTHEART OMG. you showed her close relationship with her grandma speckletail as well as her sister cinderpelt so well too dude i could SOB
Hi ya'll! Recently I've noticed parts of this MAP being reuploaded, both in edits and in its entirety.

Thank you to every one who made this map and participated in this map! It’s one of my favorite MAPS out there. I absolutely love It!!!
DON'T YOU GIVE UP ON ME
never gonna give you up
Wooooooooooooow
Not the Rickroll!😂
Get brighthearted
BRUH I REMEMBER THE DAY THE MAP CALL DROPPED 😭 the way the song choice and the story had just hit me this story just tugs at your heart strings. 💖💞✨️ I had thought the map was canceled and yet here it is completed right infront of my face. Thank you to all the animators and the map co-ordinators for all your hard work, this is absolutely stunning and im so happy this probject could be completed after 4 long years, everyone did fantastic!!!

I remember seeing this MAP call and parts before I even started animating, and now to have had the chance to help with finishing the project and watch it ride into completion was such- an amazing opportunity and I'm SO excited to see the complete project!!
Thanks so much for watching! I'm so glad people have enjoyed this MAP and have appreciated all the artists' hard work! I wanted to answer a few questions that keep popping up:
*Why's she missing an ear? Why is there no scar/hole where her ear would have been?*
These designs are very stylized, both because that's simply how I enjoy drawing, but also to make animation easier for the artists. Details are simplified and omitted, while still staying true to the essence of the character. I know it may not be "canon", but that's the fun part about fanart--different artists have different interpretation.
*Can I put this in an edit/on TikTok?*
I'd really prefer you didn't, as this is a project comprised of many people's work. If you would like to use elements from this video, please reach out to each individual artist (they're linked in the description, as well as listed in the video both on each individual part and in the end credits). I understand people enjoy making edits and do them mostly for fun, but taking and reuploading people's art without permission and credit is very disrespectful and just not right. Please respect the artists and their work by reaching out to them personally for permission. (And please respect their answer, even if they say no.)
Thanks again for all your support and please go and support the animators!
Brightheart lost an ear?? Jeez I imagined her wrong then 💀
This map make me cry.❤
I think I can say without a doubt, this has become one of my favorite MAPs ever. From the colour script, to every single participant, everything was so well put together. The way you presented Brightheart’s character and the message behind the map is truly inspiring. Thanks for creating this
I love this brightheart design. The size of her scar isn’t necessarily realistic, but it’s easy to draw, maybe more animator friendly, and the severity of her injury is represented through the lack of fluff and ear on that side. Very nice. And the other scars on her body ofc.
ALSO THE TRANSITION BETWEEN PARTS 4 AND 5? THAT’S SO GOOD OH MY GOD
agreed! i did expect the scar to be bigger but this is definitely easier to animate! considering there’s a lot of movement and animation i think it was better to draw the scar in the way they did!
@@miabearrbigger?! You do realize how small her scar is, right?

Wow, I actually can't believe that this is finally finished... So many old map calls from years ago are forgotten and don't get finished despite the hype for them, and this map is one of those where you think for a while the project has slowed down and isn't worked on anymore, but rises from the ashes and suprises everyone with it's completion. Just goes to show the devotion to art this community has, and I'm so glad to see this finished and see so many great artists come together to make this beautiful piece of art.
Brightheart herself has risen from her own ashes. Her story about overcoming her trauma and finding her own worth despite those around her having doubts about her abilities has always touched alot of folks in the fandom who have a similar story to tell. The inclusion of Cinderpelt in this project has always touched me aswell. So many forget that they're actually sisters, and I think it's a wonderful relationship to explore.
Thank you, Beffalumps and the animators who made this completed map a reality, your dedication and creativity inspires me and everyone else here witnessing the premiere.
Let's all continue to spread positivity and overcome our Insecurities and fears! ❤
DON'T YOU GIVE UP!!
I've followed this map since the call was uploaded, from backup to participant to cohost! the whole journey has meant so much to me and I loved meeting and working with so many talented and passionate people along the way, and getting the opportunity to help create such a beautiful and heartwarming map!! the final thing made me SOB, there really is nothing else quite like this project. thank you so much Beth, for everything!!!
Unbelievably honored to have been a part of this project! Thank you so much to everyone, especially to the artists who shared a part with me, for their amazing work 🧡
I became disabled shortly after this MAP call first dropped. Seeing it complete now after so many years after seeing myself change in those years is just amazing …. As a disabled person this character and song touch me deeply and I feel so privileged that so many talented artists worked to bring such a heartwarming project to life.
Fab job everyone
I love how her sister is the one encouraging her 🥺
every time the MAP gets to the final chorus, i get literal CHILLS! i can't express how it warms my heart and literally makes me want to CRY. the slow transition from "i'll climb and i'll climb" to "oh but don't you give up on me", AAHHH MY HEART
MY SOUL LEAVES MY BODY WHEN THAT PART COMES UP
I was extremely honered when I got accepted into this map as a kid, and super excited to work alongside many animators I looked up to! 🥺 I'm still super proud of my part, thank you for creating this project 💕
I gotta say this is one of the best Brightheart Multi Animated Projects I've ever seen in my life! I think it might be my favorite one, it's so well done, everyone seems to have put forth their best effort and it all flows together smoothly!
I must say, if anyone ever deserved to lead Thunderclan it was Brightheart. Brightheart is literally the heart and soul of Thunderclan and she deserved so much better than she got from the Erins.
Ahhh Cinderpelt being supportive brought tears to my eyes, that last little 'don't you give up' was perfect ❤
Everyone did such a crazy amazing job!
Makes it even more tear jerking as Cinderpelt was her sister!
Absolutely MARVELOUS. JAWDROPPING. I cannot describe through words how much I love this project. Everyone did an immaculate job, from the hosts to the backups. I adore how much life and effort was put into this. The intuition and passion behind each animator is SO clear!! I sobbed sm, Brightheart I love u
i have no doubt this map will help countless disabled children and adults who feel ostracized from the world around them. the way brightheart's story of love, loss, and healing told within just a few minutes is outstanding. there's no romanticism nor is there any implication that brightheart is lesser after the accident; the only one holding her back in the beginning was herself. every single animator brought her to life in a way ive hardly ever seen before. congratulations and a phenomenal job, the wait was beyond worth it. 👏💕
this map healed me I was in a rut the same time this came out im so much better now.
EDIT: I want to thank you big time.
I was in a rut the same time this M.A.P came out, I was close to giving up sure I had people who loved me but my anxiety was getting worse by the day, minute even. Everyday I wanted to go to bed early to escape my emotions/anxiety. In fact I remember going to aquarium somewhere ( Georgia I think ) and I saw a homeless man, for some reason I was TERRIFIED i kept thinking. “ what if he takes me “ “ what if he hurts me “ this wasn’t the only time I had thoughts like this, I’m not targeting homeless people or men. I vividly remember being at my Schools mass and crying because I thought I was going to die. I don’t remember where I was or what I was doing when I saw this M.A.P but what I DO remember is it literally making me feel sm better. I viewed things differently I remember “ I’m safe “. So thank you so much. I’m so glad I can finally talk about because it was really hard before.
This is the exact part I started bawling my eyes out 😭
I'm so incredibly grateful to be a part of this wonderful project. I remember seeing the call first drop and absolutely loving the concept. Brightheart is a character very dear to my heart, her story alongside Cinderpelt's helped get me through a terrible mindset when I first learned of my disability. I still can't believe that I was able to contribute and bring this wonderful project back from the grave. Everyone worked so incredibly hard to get this beast finished, and it's amazing.
This is now my comfort map 😭😭🧡 I watch this whenever I feel sad and it works perfectly so I'm really thankful for you all, you did amazing
AAA the wait has been 100% worth it! This MAP turned out so gorgeous and I love the way how from the shadows of Cinderpelt's den the MAP moves towards the brightness of the sun - I think that detail alone makes this so outstanding ✨The colors and atmosphere throughout the entire MAP carry out that hint of hope from the very beginning to the end where it blossoms into its most whole form 💖 Brightheart deserves this spotlight, and this effort that has been given to the MAP and everyone did an outstanding job! I love how I saw new and old names mixed together, and throughout the years, it has been amazing to follow how this all has come together!^^ Thank you to the hosts and thank you to the animators for delivering this wonderful and gorgeous project to life👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙌🏻
I personally think that brighthearts story is the most inspiring story Erin could have made it relates to many people with disabilities with the realistic thoughts of these people and how it may take a very long time to work at it I personally don’t have a disability but I have anger issues and adhd and I often get bullied/made fun of for overly dramatic or emotional like blue star had called brightheart names but then it shows also there are people there I have a person there for me and I honestly couldn’t ask for more for someone like her
4:00 for some reason this part really touched me, love the whole MAP beautiful work every animator!
Yeah cuz it kinda shows that even though Brightheart got hurt really bad and is self conscious about it, Cinderpelt has also been through it before yet didn't give up no matter what.
i actually cried to this the memories man remember the blame map?? just as empowering and heartfelt,i really do love this.
yeah okay this made me cry. the killers have always been one of my fav artists so i was so excited for this map i went out of my way to avoid watching any parts so i could go into it blind. 4 years later im currently in the worst depression in my life and this still managed to bring a smile to my face. this song is one of my favorites and brightheart will always have a soft spot in my heart. all the animators did such a wonderful job- this project was well worth the wait ❤
I never thought a map would do it like that. The detsl,attention,wording... It was all like done like that... Thanks for producing such a wonderfull MAP
God do I adore this fandom
blixemi!
Born too late to the see the fandom's past, born too early to see the fandom's future, born just in time for a 4 year MAP project finished. amazing dedication to all these animators. GG
I used to be big in the warriors fandom, so i havent watched any related content in the fandom for a while, not since a couple years now, but to see how far the Art in the community as come truly amazes me, detailing on the characters/backgrounds its absolutely breathtaking to see, animation as well has definitely have that refreshing feeling, i really enjoyed this map and i was excited when i saw the hosting come out. Even if its been 4 years of waiting, it was all worth it, W's to all the animators/hosts that put there time and love into this project, you all did incredible!
this is absolutely beautiful. you can tell each animator put a lot of effort into detail and the animation! everything about this map is amazing, and i love how the animators worked together in it too, i haven’t seen a lot of maps like that! i truly enjoyed this and i give props to everyone who put work into it! thank you for sharing this lovely video with us ❤️ (edit: my favorite part was definitely 3:52 , the hug was just so cute!)
THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL!! genuinely one of the best maps ive ever seen. full of emotion and the art direction is incredible. truly stunning work. credits to all the hosts and the animators who made this happen.
Hard to watch.
My vision gets blurry of the water.
Absolutely amazing work with the animations, just so beautiful! Emotions of the characters fit with the song so well, and you can read the story behind the scenes from their faces! Good job every single one of you!
This disability pride month٫ I was finally diagnosed with Adhd. The message of not giving up and continuing to exist despite a disability or what others may say about it is just what I needed to hear right now! ❤
Cinderpelt just telling her not to give up is the cutest thing ever!it shows how much cinderpelt wanted her to become a warrior
This map is gorgeous! Growing up disabled, I always clung to Brightheart. In fact, Cinderpelt and Brightheart were the ONLY young disabled characters I had. Despite everything that’s happened, she never gave up, got to find love, and lived an amazing life as a warrior. Seeing this brought back all the feelings I had while reading the books for the first time. Thank you to everyone who took part in this. HAPPY DISABLED PRIDE MONTH!
God the art in this map is beautiful. The attention to detail is outstanding. Brightheart is such an inspirational character to those who struggle with disability or trauma. As someone who's suffered from c-ptsd- god, it's so meaningful to see characters like this not let their past define them-- especially the part around 3:18 says so much and is so impactful.
IT'S FINALLY HERE!! i remember re-visiting the map-call over and over again last year, im so glad it's finally completed!!
Really struggling with depression, CPTSD and a whole lot of other things right now. I remembered this MAP and came back to it, because Brightheart is such an uplifting example of not giving up. I was also attacked by a dog and I've been dealing with nightmares and stuff. Never would have guessed when I was 10 and reading Warriors for the first time that it would help me so much. Fantastic job to all the animators, the way this is done definitely gets some emotion out of me. Stay strong folks. :)
This gave me chills this is so sweet, there are some really beautiful shots executed by the animators in this, this is outstanding and beautiful it makes mefeel happy :)
Wow 👌 that's an amazing song, especally for Bright Heart, and the animating is amazing!
Can't help but notice an absolutely sweet lil fiuffy boy Cloudtail who adores and supports his cute and strong Brightheart!!!!! adorable sweety buddys💘
i haven’t been part of the warriors fandom for at least 3 years now, but this was recommended to me and i couldn’t be happier that it was. i cried twice because the art and the message are just so beautiful and it impacted me in a way i didn’t know animation could. the song choice is perfect and this whole project is fucking amazing, well done 💙
THAT WAS AWESOME!! THE ANIMATORS DID SUCH AN AMAZING JOB AND THE ENTIRE MAP WAS INCREDIBLE!! DON’T GIVE UP ON BRIGHTHEART
THAT WAS SO FREAKIN EPIC OMG THEY DID SO GOOD ❤❤❤
@@Sabrinathewitch2FR
I remember when this came out!!! It's been a year and I still love it!
5:50 HOLY CHEESE ALEX HARRIER CALM DOWN THIS IS INSANE YALL DID SO GOOD!!!!!❤
0:58 this moment between brightheart and cinderpelt was just so cute since cinderpelt knows how it feels to be crippled and feel so insecure. Its also ironic that their sisters.
I have a special connection with brightheart. One of my eyes is less functional then my other (practically deadweight if I don’t count the little vision I have) and was bullied all my life for it. Eventually I finally found my way around life and can live independently, and I also found a lover that loves me for me and saw through my disability ❤️
Aww
I’ve been following this project for such a long time now, and i’m so happy to see the map completed. I love the concept and storytelling of this map so much, and I’m glad Brightheart gets the recognition she deserves. The animators did such an incredible job on this, and every part is looking absolutely gorgeous!
This MAP was so cute!! I loved the scene of Speckletail pinching Brightheart’s cheek!! So cute!!!
As some one who has seen people not be cared for,I am very happy to see and hear you and the others tell me and anyone else not to give up up ourselves or others.Thank you for this heartwarmiming map.[Edit-Cinderpelt saying dont give up at the end was powerful]
I FREAKING LOVE THIS! i love the happy vibes, the animation styles, the simplistic designs, and the STORYBOARD!!! i feel like them meeting princess is so uncommon but so important to include! I LOVE EVERYTHING AAAA
Man, this map took so long to finish and still so underrated, this should deserve tons and tons of likes on it! >:(
a warriors map hasn’t hit me like this one in a very long time. incredible job done by all the participants and hosts, it came out beautifully.
Out of all the Brightheart animations I've seen this has got to be one of my favorites! The song fits her perfectly and each part is so beautifully animated and shaded. And the parts near the end are just so heart-warming! This MAP is amazing! The animators did a great job!
This turned out nothing short of stunning. After all this time through all the highs and lows of productivity, focus and motivation it really came together absolutely gorgeously. Everyone did a wonderful job, especially kudos to the hosts for pushing it through while being understanding and finally putting it together so wonderfully.
Thank you so much for letting me be part of this project, working with you all has been a blast.
Ahhh!!!!! I’m so excited! I probably won’t be able to be there for the premiere but I can’t wait to see it!
I love how all BrightHeart MAPS either are incredibly wholesome, or tear-worthy.
This map almost made me cry a couple times. It reminded me of myself a little bit (even though I don’t have a disability), and everyone who participated in this is so fantastic and talented. And this map is so underrated!
Edit (4 months later): I watched this again and it still makes me cry 😭 Brightheart’s story is so sad, but she’s perfect in every way.
The collective of all the animation in this is some of the best I've seen
I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS! 10/10 JUST- EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS IS GREAT! THE ANIMATION, THE SCRIPT EVERYTHING! DEFINITELY WORTH THE WAIT
Wow a day ago! This is the earlest I have seen a map! This map is so amazing everyone did amazing and it shows Brightheart so much! This is one of the best maps I have seen!
Same here! ^^
Aww I cried ;_____; THIS TURNED OUT SO BEAUTIFULLY !!! The turn-around shots are breathtaking especially! Gosh, great job!! Thank you all for doing this! Q^Q
It honestly amazes me how insanely talented this fandom is. Utterly gorgeous, this is so, so good!!!
I JUST started watching and I’m already blown away by the fully voice acted intro
Post-watching: I nearly cried. This is beautifully made, beautiful song, beautiful animation, beautiful designs. Incredible.
It was unexpected and very pleasant. This project is so cute and cozy)
All these years of hard work have fully justified themselves.
And Cloudtail is so cute here.
MY HEART!! Oh my gosh I have no words… I’m so beyond honored to have been a small part of this! The storytelling is gorgeous and it so beautifully flows together- huge thank you to Beth and everyone else who put in such a huge effort to make this map happen!!
God- that was a beautiful map, I can’t believe my eyes- it was too good. I’ve only seen two other maps that are the runner ups in my favourites, but this one sits in the middle. Brightheart didn’t deserve to get attacked that night, she shouldn’t have, but if she hadn’t, who knows? She would’ve ended up as another bland character. But the injury made her interesting, and it showed that she didn’t lose hope even in the darkest moments. StarClan’s Chosen is following very close behind this map, like maybe joint first idk. But honestly- if I could choose any map to watch forever it’d be this one, it’s so beautiful and all the animators worked so very hard on it, I’m proud to be apart of the warriors community, and maybe be apart of a map one day, but until then I suppose I just gotta keep working hard to build my own channel. I’m a mix of horses and warrior cats- but honestly, nothing beats the warriors community, even though toxic people exist, they exist in every community, we can’t let it stop us!
I say- toxic people aren’t apart of the community, but they sadly and unfortunately exist, and honestly I’m convinced they exist to spread annoyance, so just avoid and ignore them. I know I’m just rambling in this comment, but I don’t know what else to write.
Dear the whole warriors community,
You are the best group of people I’ve ever decided to join, if you speak English or not it doesn’t matter, all the characters that we’ve met throughout the years will always matter to us.
(Spoilers Ahead)
We lost so many great cats throughout the series, Yellowfang, Bluestar, Firestar himself! But it all leads back to the tabby Kittypet that ventured out into the forest one day and didn’t look back.
This is soo relatable! And the ending, I constantly had goosebumps, because it can be hard when you look different. So, it stands out to me, and it gives hope to those out there.
My eyes just started bawling once Alex Harrier’s part came. The build-up. My heart. I can’t.
THE TURNAROUND
@@Albertfingernoodle627 YES
JUST FINISHED THE PREMIERE AND OMG IM CRYING, you can see how much love went into this project and every part is so amazingly animated, kudos to the participants and all the four hosts that have been so patient, especially beffalumps that has been hosting this for all the four years!!! love brightheart love this map
tears were shed. seeing this map completed fills me with so many emotions. the map call dropped just as i started a new chapter of my life so it feels so sentimental to me. everyone did such an amazing job :') 💜
This is one of the best brightheart maps I've ever seen! The way it shows her slowly leaning to move on and get used yo hunting and fighting again was amazing! The designs were reconizable wich was nice too! Good job to all the people who participated in this map!
Not gonna lie, seeing this project finished and watching everything comes to life made me tear up ahah,,,

I still occasionally looked up the progress of this MAP, as I found it to be so inspirational, and I’m so happy it’s complete! Good job to all the animators and beffalumps!
I remember when this was posted and I just KNEW this was going to be my favorite MAP, I’m so glad it’s finally complete, and that I get to properly sob my heart out while watching it.
