Record of Ragnarok

Aired: 2021

A TV anime produced by Graphinica, based on the manga by Shinya Umemura (story), Takumi Fukui (composition), and Ajichika (art) serialized in Coamix's Monthly Comic Zenon, with over 18 million copies in circulation (as of 2024). Once every 1,000 years, gods from around the world gather in heaven for the "Council of Humanity's Survival." Just as the verdict of "extinction" is about to be handed down, Brunhilde, eldest of the demigod Valkyries, objects and proposes "Ragnarok"—a final battle between gods and humanity. In a best-of-13 one-on-one tournament, the first side to win 7 matches prevails. Round 1 pits Lu Bu Fengxian against Thor, Round 2 sees Adam versus Zeus, Round 3 features Sasaki Kojiro against Poseidon, and Round 4 is Jack the Ripper versus Heracles. The series spans 12 episodes on Netflix. The main cast includes Miyuki Sawashiro as Brunhilde, Tomokazu Seki as Lu Bu, and Hikaru Midorikawa as Thor. Music is composed by Yasuharu Takanashi. ©Ajichika, Shinya Umemura, Takumi Fukui/Coamix, Record of Ragnarok Production Committee
