Hello friends, subscribers, and everyone who’s still here.
I’ve been meaning to make this announcement for a while now. I know I haven’t been uploading much lately, and I want to explain why. Some of you probably noticed my last video was set to private. Honestly, I just wasn’t proud of it. It didn’t feel like it represented me or the direction I’m headed anymore.
The truth is… my life has been changing a lot over the past six months to a year. Little by little, I’ve been preparing myself to step away from many of the things that used to define me. At the end of this month, I’ll be leaving for a monastery. I’ll be there for three months, and if they accept me afterward… I plan to fully dedicate my life there.
That means leaving behind a lot including this channel.
It hasn’t been an easy decision, and it’s not something I made overnight. It’s been slow, deliberate, and prayerful. And because of it, my priorities have shifted. I barely watch movies, TV shows, or read comics anymore. Almost all of my time is spent focusing on Orthodox theology, political discussions, and the occasional YouTube debate. Those are important to me right now but they’re not the kind of things that turn into tributes or AMVs.
That’s part of the reason content has slowed down. The other reason? Honestly, making anime AMVs has just become exhausting. It’s not like it used to be every time I try to put something together, so much footage gets blocked, especially from Japan and China. You spend hours working on something, only to have it taken down or restricted… it kills your motivation after a while.
I might still make one final AMV a short tribute to the two main characters from Daggers Through the Heart. I’ve watched both seasons and read most of the manga, and I think it would be a nice way to close this chapter. But it’s not guaranteed. If I do end up making it, it’ll probably come out around December, when I come back from the monastery for a couple of weeks.
Before I go, I want to say how grateful I am that I was able to finish the NATO album. I put a lot of myself into it, and I really believe it turned out great. Not many people have discovered it yet, but that’s okay. I didn’t make it for numbers or views I made it because I believe in it. Maybe one day more people will appreciate it, but even if they don’t, I’m proud of what I created.
I don’t know what happens after December. Maybe this is my last real update. Maybe it’s not. But what I do know is that I’ve loved making these videos. I’ve loved sharing these AMVs, these moments, and this journey with you all.
Thank you for sticking around. Thank you for watching. And thank you for being part of this chapter of my life.
I hope you guys like the new profile pic. It's a based off a pic of me smoking at work. I asked AI to turn it into an anime picture. Then asked it to make me the Pope with black and gold robes. It also has my tattoo in it although you can't see it. At least not in my little round profile picture but here you can. By the way My tattoo isn't actually leaves. It's Jesus Christ but for some reason the AI doesn't know how to print that so it just turned it into black and green leaves for some reason.
Anyway hope you guys like it I think it will be the new standard profile pic going forward.

I’ve heard a lot of people lately claim that Muslims and Christians “worship the same God.” Here are my thoughts on that claim, and if you're a Catholic who believes this—here’s my response.
I knew this debate would arise the moment I actually read what Vatican II teaches. I knew it would become mainstream, and I knew people would be forced to defend an indefensible position—and ultimately fail. The Catholic Church, after Vatican II, has become the very Antichrist system that the saints of the first millennium warned us about.
It now teaches that salvation is possible outside the Church of Christ, even claiming that Muslims “worship the one true God,” and that “the plan of salvation includes them.” This implies that one can be saved without Christ—which is blasphemy. This is Antichrist.
This is why the Catholic Church is spiritually dead. It has been for some time—now it's just slowly decaying. I pray sincerely that God will have mercy on Catholics. But tragically, many continue—by their own will and with full knowledge—to support this Antichrist system. And unless they repent, they are walking willingly toward damnation.
To any Catholic with a conscience: come home to the Eastern Orthodox Church. We have not compromised. We still proclaim the truth—that salvation is found only in Christ, and Christ is rightly worshipped only within His Body, the Orthodox Church.
This isn’t just personal conviction—it’s dogma. At the Council of Constantinople in 849, the Orthodox Church explicitly anathematized Muhammad as a false prophet and condemned Muhammadism (Islam) as a deception. These same anathemas are still proclaimed every year on the Sunday of Orthodoxy during Great Lent. We anathematize Arianism, Iconoclasm, and Islam because they are heresies—not paths to salvation.
So to my Roman Catholic friend: you know your church isn’t right on this. You feel the tension in your soul. Please return to the true Church of Christ. And even in your error, may Christ our God have mercy on you.
I have been compiling and making an album using AI. About orthodoxy. NATO globalism. A Eumanism. World war 3. The prophecies the saints. Martyrs. And all this other stuff. The album Nations against the Orthodox Church otherwise known as NATO It has a total of nine tracks. I hope for this project to be done by the end of the month. Unfortunately I still need to buy the rights to actually download the album because the software I used to create these songs does not allow you to download them without paying the service. So I still need to do that but after that each song will be put out. There is still a few things that need to be done in terms of audio mixing that the AI program just didn't get right. But outside of that the album should release sometime this month or next month more than likely next month. But I hope you guys are excited The tracklist names will drop soon. Along with some track covers.
Future Saint in Our Midst: Metropolitan Philaret of New York
Today, I wish to spotlight a figure whom I believe will one day be universally recognized as a saint within the Orthodox Church: Metropolitan Philaret (Voznesensky) of New York, the third First Hierarch of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia (ROCOR). While some non-canonical groups have already declared him a saint, I am not affiliated with these groups and thus refrain from referring to him as such—yet. Nevertheless, I firmly believe he is a holy man, and I look forward to the day when the Church formally glorifies him.
What more can be said about Metropolitan Philaret that hasn't already been said? He was a remarkable hierarch, a spiritual giant, and a close friend of Saint John of Shanghai and San Francisco. In one of the most turbulent times in the history of the Russian Orthodox Church, he served as a steady, courageous shepherd, guiding the Church in exile as it stood apart from global Orthodoxy—alone, often misunderstood, and yet deeply committed to preserving the faith.
Metropolitan Philaret possessed many spiritual and administrative gifts. He led ROCOR during a time when the Russian Church found itself in exile, physically cut off from its homeland and spiritually resisting the theological trends that had begun to take root elsewhere in the Orthodox world. Despite the isolation, he upheld the truth with firmness and clarity.
Perhaps most famously, Metropolitan Philaret is remembered for The Sorrowful Epistles, a series of profound letters that expressed his deep concern over the growing trend of ecumenism, particularly within the framework of the World Council of Churches. These epistles are striking in both their tone and content—clear, uncompromising, and deeply sorrowful. They addressed theological deviations and served as a heartfelt cry for repentance and renewal in the Orthodox world.
While I personally feel that some of the language in the Sorrowful Epistles may have gone too far, they were still within the bounds of genuine pastoral concern—unlike some of the extremes adopted by later splinter groups. Metropolitan Philaret's writings were not divisive for the sake of division, but were born out of a deep love for the purity of the faith and a heartfelt cry for repentance and renewal in the Orthodox world.
It is true that one of the challenges to his formal canonization lies in his firm stance against the Moscow Patriarchate at the time—a stance made during the height of Soviet oppression, when the Church within Russia was under immense pressure and infiltration. However, we must understand his position in the context of the era: he was defending the freedom and spiritual integrity of the Church in exile, not seeking to judge those suffering under totalitarian control.
In my heart, I believe Metropolitan Philaret belongs in the company of the great hierarchs of the Russian Church Abroad—alongside Saint John of San Francisco and other luminaries of our time. His legacy is one of courage, prayer, and unwavering faithfulness to Christ and His Holy Church.
I sincerely hope that the next time the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia gathers to glorify new saints, they will look to Metropolitan Philaret. The faithful would be blessed to have another holy intercessor in heaven—one who truly bore the cross of exile, spiritual isolation, and principled resistance for the sake of the Church.
May his memory be eternal, and may his example continue to inspire all who seek to live in the truth of Orthodoxy.
