Early life and education
Mike was raised in the Philippines by his parents, about whom nothing is known as he respects their privacy; it’s believed that his father worked as a cashier at a local supermarket, and that his mother was a babysitter. Because Mike hasn’t spoken of having any siblings, most people believe that he’s an only child.
He became interested in animation while still attending a local elementary school; Mike was initially a huge fan of animated films and animes, before he started thinking about creating animations himself.
He learned about the technique on his own when attending a local high school, while he was interested in a couple of other things during those four years, including playing video games and acting with the school’s drama club.
He matriculated in 2006, and then launched his YouTube channel, thus choosing not to pursue a college degree; Mike worked various jobs to financially support himself while making a name for himself on the internet.
Most popular YouTube videos
Mike is mostly popular on YouTube for turning animated series into animes, but also for his original animated videos; we’re going to mention three of his most popular videos, which have helped him attract many subscribers.
His #1 video “What if “The Amazing World Of Gumball” was an Anime” has been watched close to 80 million times since 18 January 2015, and the title is quite self-explanatory.

Third of Mike’s most popular videos is “What if “The Amazing World Of Gumball” was an Anime (Comparison)”, watched close to 40 million times since 18 January 2015.
Presence on social media networks
Mike prefers to keep details of his private life to himself, which is why he doesn’t have an Instagram account, however, there is a fan page made for him, which is today followed by close to 15,000 people, and numbers more than 300 pictures uploaded onto it. The pictures are mostly his own animations, as it’s widely known that Mike is yet to show his face on the internet, but there is still that one picture of him uploaded onto Facebook by a fan, which features the two of them at an anime-related event in the Philippines.
Mike launched his Twitter account in February 2016, and has since amassed close to 100,000 followers, while he’s tweeted over 200 times. Most of Mike’s tweets are pictures of characters which can be seen in his YouTube videos, while he occasionally just writes to announce the upload of his latest video.

Mike used to have a Facebook page which was followed by more than 10,000 people, and onto which he uploaded rather similar content as onto his Twitter account; he has deleted it for unknown reasons, although there are rumors circulating the internet, claiming that Mike was harassed by a fan on Facebook.
He isn’t active on TikTok, but many videos of his work have been uploaded onto the network by other users, and viewed close to 10 million times; Mike’s fans have been trying to convince him to launch a TikTok account for a year now, but he doesn’t seem to be interested.
Love life and wife
Mike is highly secretive when it comes to talking about his love life, and hasn’t mentioned any women (or men) whom he’s perhaps been with.
This is mostly why there are various rumors circulating the internet, concerning both his past and present affairs, as well as his sexual orientation.
Some of his fans believe him to be gay, and this to be the reason behind Mike not speaking of the women whom he’s dated. A fan has also claimed to have seen him being rather too close to a male friend at an anime event, but no evidence has been provided to support these claims, nor has Mike addressed these rumors.
There are also some who believe that he’s today in a long-term relationship with a non-celebrity Filipino girl, while some think that he’s a married man; none of this has been addressed by Mike.
