Shuumatsu no Walküre II

In a shocking turn of events, humanity has won its first battle in the Ragnarök tournament—a series of 13 fights that will decide the fate of mankind. Zeus, the head of gods, sends the demigod Heracles for the next round to avenge the humiliated Greek pantheon. To face this hero loved by gods and humans alike, the Valkyrie Brunhilde decides to use Heracles' complete moral opposite: the infamous serial killer Jack the Ripper—leaving human beings unsure who they should support.

Meanwhile, tensions begin to rise between various divine pantheons, and rumors of a traitor jeopardize the unity of those who want to annihilate humanity. As the line between friend and foe becomes blurred, Brunhilde will do everything she can to make her machinations successful.

"RECORD OF RAGNAROK: SEASON 2 PART 1"

Genre- Action, Drama, Fantasy, Mythology, Seinen.

With the start of its second season, Record of Ragnarok resumes the final battle between mankind and Gods. With an even more heated arena than the first three fights, the second season delivers all it promised and leaves as a cliffhanger during the end of its prequel.

In this season we witness two heavenly fights one between Hercules, the fame of Greece, and Jack the Ripper, the renowned serial killer on the streets of London, and the second between Raiden, the best Sumo wrestler, and Shiva, the Indian God of Destruction. And believe me, nothing ... can prepare you for the things you will witness in this second bout. With the backstories of all the characters and their strengths, this season brings you a whole new array of emotions and feelings. It depicts the hardships of humans in a society, the challenges faced by Gods to get accepted in the realm, and even the sacrifices made by bystanders so that everything happens as time had planned it. It speaks to you about the importance of friendship, the void mind of someone without any love, and the struggles of those who must carry on for others' sake.

While the anime may seem all about fighting if you can look between the lines and understand the story of each fighter, it is then that you can enjoy this anime even more. On its technical side, the second season brings to you a much-needed 3D style of animation at times that help refine the fight and increases your interest in the anime. All in all, this anime truly leaves you at the edge of your seat as you cannot predict what might happen next.

This anime is absolutely a "MUST WATCH."

Mixed Feelings

Being a huge fan of the original work, (I own all currently available volumes) I was very disappointed with Season 1. Shuumatsu no Valkyrie had the potential to be the hypest fighting manga of the current decade, but Netflix just chose to fumble the bag: amazing character designs, great fighting secuencies, enjoyable and quick-to-read backstories... if well adapted, SnV could have easily become one of the best fighting anime ever made. But Netflix just didn't want to.

However, with Season 2, they managed to offer an actually decent product. It still has evident flaws, yes, and that's why not everyone will enjoy it- but there were ... some pretty good moments, something the first season lacked, and besides the animation (which wasn't that bad this time), everything else is actually pretty good.

Overall, this season is a lot better than the first one, but I still deeply recommend reading the manga instead. It's just better in every aspect.

Preliminary (15/10 eps)

I watched this season somewhat against my will because its previous season did not captivate me at all to continue following the work. But here we are and I must say that, to my surprise, there was a leap in quality (also because it was practically impossible to get worse).

Shuumatsu no Walküre, at first, has a theme that is difficult to go wrong, just comply with all the clichés that the genre proposes and minimally animate a fight, which this season has started to do. All fights are no longer those static and uninteresting frame shows. Now it has a more pleasant visual appeal for ... those who watch it. Nothing fancy or anything, just the basics.

There is still a long way to go to become a "good anime" in my view, but if the growing is maintained, already in the next season we can really start to have a decent anime here. In this season itself, we already had some indications that the story does not seem to be so predictable and this is good, because since the micro of the story and the main attraction, which are the fights of characters from random legends, it is not being so well executed, maybe exploring the lore of these characters before there is a final fight, or even a saga can lead to an interesting conflict, after all, practically all the fights here, the characters shown did not have a bond with those who watched and developed, or tried to develop, these bonds throughout of the fight wasn't the smartest ideas, even more so being done in the dirty way that this anime does.

In addition, it is still a bad anime, but I will still follow. In case you have a lot of time to waste, watch this anime. it may be that "lost time" is actually "invested time".
