This Is Why I Changed My Name to KODA - Afton Explains His BIGGEST DESICION!

[@KodaHere]

To the hundreds that liked this video to the hundreds that saw it, and to the few hundred whom said so many kind words. I thank you. My community is one of the special ones that cannot be beat by any other especially on this platform and especially among the many VRC KZbinrs out there. We are all one of a kind, and we will show the world our greatness. Many wish to be us, yet they no not how hard that truly is. Be you, don't be fake. We sure know some of those folks out there.

[@keaganrussell]

I love your videos. They make me laugh every time down. Keep up the good work

[@TFSPY962]

It's been a long time since I last saw you, man. Keep up the good work.

[@rowancastle2941]

Just be you, Koda.

[@Technokrov]

It has been an honor getting to know you koda can’t wait to see what the future holds for have a great rest of you day man.

[@Technokrov]

I’m gonna add a reply to this and say my favorite memory of watching you and all of that is when I got to be in the the sans video with you because it showed me that you are not some person looking for clout or anything your just someone who wants to make a difference and someone who wants to help the people you care about and I’ve learned that from being in vcs with you and talking to you so thank you for all you do and everything you have done and will do.

[@Rustman2037]

Listen even though you changed we will still support you no matter what we are all here with you and no one will change that right everybody

[@WitherKing_III]

Goodbye Afton, and hello Koda. Can't wait to see what's up next

[@Lolplup11]

My favorite moment was when you and the other funtime freddy were fighting over who is Ditty Dan 😂😂

[@lurarodriguez4675]

You may be underrated, but you are still the best vr voice actor I have ever seen! STILL ROOTING FOR 100K AND 1 MIL! P.s. my favorite moments are just the ones that made me laugh. And that was everything

[@eggintheshell9801]

Oh also, my favorite video was your springtrap video. I have so many lines from you that i quote in that one "Oh god, EVERYTHINGS TURNING TO BEANS"

[@DiamondSlasherGG_XD]

Never back down never give up

[@articblack8141]

HOO RAA!!!!!

[@circus_cat4]

[@Fairybread68]

Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down And run around And desert you

[@yukkishinzotheangelofmusic8009]

I'm so glad you're my other brother-sister. I'm grateful to all the content you've shared with everyone and all the amazing things you've done with us. Everything has been truly memorable. We'll be with you in the coming future as the Kota family and we're all happy you will continue to follow your dreams by making us laugh and smile. You may not be an icon, but you're always iconic in our hearts. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😇🫶

[@Wulintino]

My favorite moment with me and you was def the fizzaroli recording because we were just messing around the entire time with each other and goofing off the entire time which then turned into a video and 0:38 man you about to make me cry love you brother 😭😭💛💛

[@marionetteburns864]

No matter what your name is my friend your always going to be loved

[@Cress_Joku]

I started watching at the Moon and Sun videos, and stayed because it’s clear you enjoy what you do. Your videos were what got me into VAing on my own for fun in VRchat, even though my voice may not be the BEST for it, these videos gave me confidence to give it a shot, and it’s pretty fun. I’ll definitely be sticking around to follow this channel whatever happens, so thanks for everything, and here’s to the 100k we all know is coming.

[@CassandraMiyuki]

The most important part about doing anything and continuing with whatever is that you enjoy it, it's something you love to wake up to everyday. Thank you for including us on this journey, for opening up and showing us who you are. You be you, boo, and we'll be here to support you. ❤️❤️

[@Grebles578]

1:14-1:27 of the funtime freddy video and 7:14-8:42 from the 2nd funtime foxy video the moments that show we have good synergy

[@kayleesarchive]

Hey Koda!! I just wanted to say that I’m really happy for you with the name change, and that I love your content! Your N videos brought me laughter in times when I wasn’t doing well at all, so I’m grateful that you exist and that you bring that same joy to others. Stay strong! ❤️ As for my favorite moment on your channel, I’d have to pick literally any scene in your N videos where N interacts with Uzi. Your guys’ dynamic is so funny to me 😊

[@ShadowStealthPlayz]

We're allways gonna be with you Koda, whatever happens just do what you need to do in real life and my favorite moment is everything actually 😁😊

[@keenan_Does_Stuff]

Don’t get burnt out man, take the time that you need. I know you don’t plan to quit but the last thing I want is that you not having fun creating.

[@artornis606]

Think the best moment weve had is just where we chill in vr chat in a world, just hanging out not doin much but watching some videos or chilling, those are important to me

[@TheGlitchedRabbit]

Whether its a name change or a content change, you're still gonna be our favourite goofy guy! Your vrchat content inspires many, myself included, to just go out there and be their goofy, true selves. Your name is always something we'll praise. Afton, Koda, whatever you go by, you will always be here as our hero. Your name will be praised around the world (heh get it..?) Im excited to see what the future holds. Never let the harsh words hurt you, man. You're an amazing guy and those people who hate clearly haven't taken time out to even watch a second of your videos. Stay strong, and keep up the best videos we're ever gonna see ❤

[@CRaSHECLiPs]

Being around this whole time, I'm glad you are making this big jump like this m8, keep the dream alive and don't let the occasional bad time bring you down. We all are here for ya m8, keep doing ur best and the dream will come true!

[@I-ate-soap]

My favorite moments from you Koda is definitely the caine and glitch trap along with fizziarolli videos

[@ng5412]

Koda your content has always put a smile on my face :) and whatever makes you happy, it makes you fans happy to :)

[@T.W.S-438-]

I love everything thing you do man , I’ve been watching this channel for a long time I lost your channel a couple years ago because I had some hard times but once I found ya again I was instantly hooked again!

[@Hiddenbeyond.]

This, this video is my favorite moment. Because your choice, is the best. Thank you for all the videos (Especially the Adam ones my personal favorites) Its a pleasure to meet you, Koda.

[@Glitchachu-Glitchtrap]

I wanted to say, I’m happy you wanted to be more yourself, bringing that real you into your content. I can’t wait to see how your channel will become Koda, because always being you, can bring more joy to you, and it can bring more happiness to everyone. I love how you always are so open to everything, open to everyone, and even being out of character.

[@Ruhrendecend]

My favourite moment was probably the sundrop video, it to me wasn't something that stood out from the rest of your videos just that the genuine joy it brought some people to hear you sound so alike was just heartwarminggg

[@nofyx_pun-nishment]

To be honest, Koda sound better then Afton!

[@JP_PLAYZZZ-z8r]

All of the moments that you have all of them have made me smile and happy

[@astephens3600]

All that matters is that you be yourself. Never back down and never give up.

[@eggintheshell9801]

I believe the happier we are, the better content we make. Thanks Koda :D

[@Skullmastervr]

My favorite memory of the channel is the N from murder drones voice trolling.🥲🥲🥲

[@stabby_steaks3758]

It was amazing getting to know you Koda during 2021, it’s amazing to see you still carrying on with the channel and I am so proud that you have come so far. I can’t wait to watch you further grow and bring people together. 💕

[@keithphelps8782]

I love that you can be yourself I'm not a long time fan yet you left a huge impact on me great job keep going because I believe you can be huge you helped me sooooo much

[@edralyntumpalan2830]

Man, i will miss the "howdy howdy everybody afton here" but welcome... Koda😊

[@caitlinjane92]

It's so difficult for me to pick just one moment from any of your videos that I love the most because there are too many to narrow down. I'll say that any videos you did where you were laughing to the point of wheezing or snorting (which happened in your recent Hazbin Hotel videos) are my personal favorites just because your laugh is so contagious and adorable.

[@JulianKeller-x8u]

This Channel has had some of the most entertaining content.

[@Legendegaming510]

I loved the the eclipse sun and moon voice video

[@princeLunais]

Thank you Koda, I love your Angel Dust VRChat stuff, it makes me confidant in doing my own impressions and stuff on VRchat. I want to become a professional now in part due to you, because I almost gave up hope recently but I'm so glad people are still out here doing character impressions.

[@alyssagretlein7786]

my fave moment: when u talked about degree measurements at 5:00 in the morning! lmao

[@TracksideFoxnFuntimeFox]

"HI! I'm an N crab! AAAAAAAAAAAA!" -Koda; N. This video means a great deal to me. I completely support this idea, and love the fact your doing this. Let alone why your doing it.

[@SpacecoreAcey]

Hands down my favorite video of yours is the Glamrock Bonnie Is Alive In VrChat! I laughed multiple times! So good!

[@Greedow01]

we all should be ourselves and we should also think about the people around us, they are irreplaceable, no one is the same. This means be yourself.And yes, I know this video talks about it, but I wanted to say it too and that's it

[@MarkkPlays]

[@Cyn697]

I enjoyed every videos you made, your videos always make me smile and laugh, your name is beautiful and we all support you no matter what

[@Blu_Jay_Wcue]

I support you, I look forward to the future and what it holds. I understand a name change, though my own name change is an alias, the personal connection to a name is what really matters. Keep doing what you're doing Koda. My fav vid are the hazbin & FANF ones. The one part in the digital circus with kinger and the Pringles was funny, I enjoy the laughter and connections with people, pure entertainment. Out with the old, in with the new!

[@Mister_snookums5]

I've always loved your channel I always was able to get a good laugh even I wasn't at the happiest moments so I think that you are a great person and very good at getting a laugh out of people

[@Tanktactics-kl9xn]

[@justmarkthings]

Love you Koda, that will never change. You’re very amazing and keep doing you, okay?

[@totallyhuman4182]

I don't have a favorite moment, but my favorite videos are the ones with Murder Drones. They are the ones that brought me to this channel 😊 Also I prefer the channel name Koda over Afton. 😁

[@drakephippsjr.9026]

Let's goo koda I love this channel for you and you make me so happy just knowing that you try your best ❤️ great memories from this channel have a great day 💞

[@amrstudiosproductions3106]

Just be yourself, dear. I'll always watch your videos no matter the name. ^^ Your videos always made me laugh when I felt down. I been wanting to start playing VRChat again but I have to wait until I get a gaming desktop. Also a full on VR set.

[@VenomousVengeanceYT]

​​It is great you got this message out here man. Just know you weren't alone in that battle. Much love man. Keep the amazing work going. 🖤 (Hard to choose my favorite video of them all.)

[@Bubs0802]

Till this day I still love your videos and your voice acting which I’m starting to be a voice impression guy as well which I love your videos from the very beginning which got i into making my oc from fandoms I’m into and your still my favorite voice impression KZbinr live on koda you will always be in my voice acting heart and my mind also be yourself

[@FaithAfton_1983]

Anything with fnaf,helluva boss hazbin hotel and i dont remember if it was you but billibustup were my favs

[@AloneHitoriForLife]

As long as you are comfortable and being yourself then we accept! :) we all love you a lot! Thank you for making my days brighter even if I have my own anxiety and PTSD struggles you always makes me feel better! And also,I think Koda is a pretty Nice name to!

[@fenrirslip]

Somehow I had a feeling that one day this day would come. For the longest time, it felt that the name AFTON was a mask, just like you said in this video. And it's just a simple name change. The content isn't going anywhere and I'm here to support you through all of it my dude.

[@BloodBlade75144]

you will forever be one of the best content creators. GOD BLESS

[@ashy2336]

These are some wise words! Also can’t wait to see more of Koda!!

[@Caring570]

I've never spoken to a nicer youtuber in my life, while I can't do what you do, I don't want to be, because I believe that we shouldn't focus on being someone that we like, we need to be ourselves not someone else, we can use inspiration as a starting point, but don't just be a sad copy of someone else. But I like you was a content creator because you care for your fans as friends and family and I can't say that about most KZbinrs.

[@kellyhersha8915]

ypur the best part of my day honestly espesily going through high school and home life but every tim e i wacthed these videos make me laugh and really cheers me up when im low ❤🤩😮😃🥰 keep doing what ypu love koda

[@frederickwillis4924]

Farewell afton, will miss you but gotta make room for koda

[@Rainbow_Heart]

Oh yeah u go Koda!!! Either way you're still absolutely amazing!!! Edit) Oh yeah, and a favorite moment of mine? Probably would have to be in the Eclipse vid (where u also did Sun & Moon), when you said "You're gonna turn into dust at some point" XD

[@leidagrazianipr]

My fav memory is Alastor Adam and Angel and fizzaroli ,n and Lucifer.

[@crystaldragon2566]

Koda is a really pretty name. We respect your decision and will always be there for you till the end. We love you Koda❤️
