Record of Ragnarok, Vol. 1 by Shinya Umemura, Takumi Fukui
3.0
Note: This is my rating and review for the entire series.
3.5/5 stars
Humanity has been judged by the gods of all religions and mythologies to be destroyed this year. In order to prevent the destruction of humanity, one Valkyrie decides to invoke the clause of Ragnarok. In order to secure humanity's future, they must fight in a tournament against the gods. This is absolutely my favorite tournament in any story.
Every fight (1v1s) showcases differing views between the fighters. We learn of each fighters past, and see where they ended up. The gods aren't perfect, neither are the humans. These fights are genuinely beautiful in how they are crafted. The themes are there and impactful. Very exciting read.
