There is fantastic lore behind this story, one of which elucidates the high stakes, from Gods of mythology that we ourselves may be interested in to human beings within our timeline that we may have taken note of. However, while being an extremely simple premise, it is portrayed in a superbly interesting manner using intriguing undertones that embellish what it is we have. Simply put, essentially we follow one big tournament arc in which 13 Gods face off against 13 Humans, in separate One vs One battles, as the synopsis entails. Within this manga, we see the inevitable price humanity must pay, and the mindset of Gods in this world, each as result of the lives they lead. Yet there is a fascinating twist on the way this is done. As the synopsis declares, we have a lone valkyrie whom initiates what is the record of ragnarok. Shuumatsu no Walküre, or Record of Ragnarok, is a truly interesting manga. And they pay for it very simply by the lives they lead.” “People pay for what they do, and still more for what they have allowed themselves to become. Oh, and a personal tip, read it while playing some Two Steps From Hell music, it's just the best. Nevertheless, to have a great time, I doubt there is a better manga. Maybe in 3 or 4 years it become one, or a mediocre manga, we will see.
This isn't a masterpiece because of its simplicity, and it's far from ending. The art is awesome, the carachters are super cool and the fights are just incredible. Dunno if I'm overhyped, but it has been amazing. This manga has probably some of the best fights I've ever seen. Dunno, all the carachters are perfect for this kind of story. The gods are super dope as well, every one of them. (spoilers incoming i guess? ) Lu Bu, a badass beast. Oh, and speaking abou the humans, they are not random ones, they are the strongest humans that has existed in the whole Earth's story. They show you a flashback about each of them, the god and the human, wich is enough to catch affectin to each of them, dunno how. Okay, to the moment only 2 and a half fights has happened, but every character is so fucking charismatic, cool and badass.
Okay, i wasn't so sure about what score I should give, but this should be fine. Just see it by yourselves, everyone looks so badass, it's just perfect The art is incredible, and it have some panels that will make you scream due to the emotion. Everything and everyone look so fucking gorgeous. What to say, this is probably the main appeal of this. Basic as it is, it works perfectly for the main objective of this manga: show outstanding and over-the-top fights. There is also a kind of coup d'etat from the Valkyries, but nevermind that. This time they decided that they shouldn't, so they decide to exterminate them, but one Valkyre interrupt the meeting, since due to a old law, they humans had the right to fight for their existance in the Ragnarok, a short of 1vs1 tournament between 13 gods and 13 humans. The human being shall continue existing or not. The plot is very simple: every 1000 years the gods (from the Greek deities to de Indian ones) make a meeting where they decide if
If you are expecting to get into an awesome story that will change your life forever. Okay, this definitely isn't the main purpose after this series. I've never felt like that reading a manga. First of all, this is my first review, and my english isn't perfect, so sorry for that. To stand a chance against the mighty heavens, Brunhild will need to assemble history's greatest individuals, otherwise the death knell will surely be sounded for mankind. Because of their unrelenting abuse toward each other and the planet, this time the gods vote unanimously in favor of ending the human race.īut before the mandate passes, Brunhild, one of the 13 demigod Valkyries, puts forth an alternate proposal: rather than anticlimactically annihilating mankind, why not give them a fighting chance and enact Ragnarök, a one-on-one showdown between man and god? Spurred on by the audacity of the challenge, the divine council quickly accepts, fully confident that this contest will display the utter might of the gods. Under the head of Zeus, the deities of Ancient Greece, Norse mythology, and Hinduism, among others, call assembly every one thousand years to decide the fate of humanity.
