Record of Ragnorak is the latest anime to hit Netflix. Adapted from the Record of Ragnorak manga, the 12 episode season was released last month to the streaming service. Much like Yasuke, this series was also meant with some mixed reviews. While the plot and characters are interesting enough, the animation and pacing left much to be desired.

In this review, Max from our superhero and supervillain football team episodes brought his anime knowledge to the table. Everyone loves a good tournament arc in anime, but Record of Ragnorak is a tournament show! First, we talked about the all-star lineup of humans and gods we were introduced to in season one. Those we discussed included Zeus, Shiva, Adam, and Lu Bo. Then, we broke down the fights we got to see during the 12 episode run. Finally, we wrapped up this episode by looking at who still has to fight on both sides and gave some matchup predictions. Which match-up are you most excited to see? Do you think there might be a traitor among the gods? Let us know in the comments or tweet us at @nerdingwfriends!
