This AMV is one of my more ambitious projects, and I hope that it came out well. While growing up, one of my favourite unique Christmas songs was "A Soldier's King" by Kenny Rogers.
Upon listening to it recently, it occurred to me how it might make a great song for an anime AMV of this nature. I put the term "Christian" in the title due to how it has a strong Christian theme, and features an animated Jesus Christ at various points. However, most of the video is normal anime.
In fact, here's a list (in order of appearance) of all the animes featured in this AMV...
Bleach
Trigun
Full Metal Alchemist
Gundam Wing
El Hazard
Fushigi Yugi
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha Striker S
Record of Lodoss War
Sailor Moon
Mobile Suit Gundam (original)
F-Zero GP Legend (Captain Falcon)
Kiddy Grade
Dragon Ball Z
Shakugan no Shana
Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha (original)
Tenchi Muyo!
InuYasha
I thank fellow YouTube member josesirjose for his wonderful anime Jesus sketches, from which two of the animated Jesus clips in this AMV are taken.
Zetsuai Stories and an Xenosaga cutscene is where the other animated Jesus clips are taken from.
Merry Christmas! :)
I hope that everybody enjoys the AMV. Please rate, and review!

my dad played it about 3 christmasses ago and it got lost after that. i looked everywhere but coulnt find it! thanx sooooo much:D
truly a great amv so sad that so few people have seen after you get past the religous music
Very well done! I usually don't like christmas stuff but I think you pulled it off very well! (sorry about not commenting sooner I was really busy!)Definitely loved how you matched the scenes with the lyrics (such as 'born to fall' and then you have majin buu's death scene, really cool!). As always your videos are great, wonderful job!
Um.."blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God"....?
Just thought I'd mention it.
Well that's just it, I don't think this AMV is meant to honor warmongers. It's meant for those who've fought to finally find the source of peace...
The second stanza of "He marched for politicians, served under their command; And he fought for all the causes that he did not understand." struck me as fairly anti-war, actually. I did use villainous characters for those lines too (Ghiren Zabi, Treize Khushrenata, and Lt. Zechs from various Gundam shows).
The song is pro-soldier, certainly, but fairly anti-war as well. Some may see a contradiction there, but I don't.
