If you're looking for legitimate advice, you're in the wrong community. Anarchychess is for chess memes.

That said, what my noob brain sees:

it attacks white's c pawn
it activates black's queen
it prevents Qa4+, allowing black to castle

Edit: Qa4, not Qh4

On top of that it avoids Bg5, pinning the horsey, which could otherwise maybe be annoying. Also, I thing you meant Qa4+ instead of Qh4+, which is the anarchychess idea in this position for white.

Yea, white doesn't have any way, i dont think, of dedending thay C pawn, so black gets it next turn

was gonna say maybe white can Qh5 to counter attack the pawn but nope chadhorse is also defending to stop that.
