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. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

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 weresome 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.

"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, nothingcan 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."
A sequal that overcame its crucial flaws in order to deliver a highly entertaining cinematic expereience. Whilst not to say it has reached the quality of the big name shows, the fight choreography and animation has improved substantially from the first season. Movements and strikes are much more fluid and impactful. Frames are fresh and no longer recycled. Suspense is kept between scene cuts without excessive stalling. Character designs continue to be unique and flavorful, with the opening fight of this season, featuring Hercules versus Jack the ripper, being one of the best fights seen so far. The backstories are more in depth and coveredwith much more detail, as well as presenting much better motivations and targets for the fighters. The worst offender of the first season is the disasterous use of comedy, which was thankfully removed almost entirely in season 2. There was still some jokes here and there, and not all at the best of timings, but overall the immersion was not broken or ruined at all. If you have watched the first season, this sequal is the best part of it, minus the stuff that made season one feel unwatchable. I hope if this anime gets a third season, the production team follows the examples of this season to deliver another enjoyable anime.

It doesn't really have a plot, but each fight is like a final boss fight of an anime series. The depiction of the gods are also really creative, and beautifully drawn. I really like how they portrayed Buddah. They go in depth into the background of each fighter, which reminded me of Fate/Zero. I'd recommend this anime to people who like Baki fight scenes, and also people who are into Gods from all sorts of civilizations. There isn't really a good guy/bad guy in this series. The second season is definately better than the first season in my opion. I really enjoyed this anime!
Please note - At the time of writing this I also completed "Season 2 part 2" which is only 5 episodes and I certainly believe it belongs attached to this for a total of 15 instead of 10, My opinion expressed here also includes those 5 episodes. If that gets me negative points then so be it but I don't want to write a whole separate review for one single fight all while struggling to avoid spoilers. Record of Ragnarök II is a continuation of the first and overall I'd say they made a few improvements compared to the first season. Let me start with what continuedto the strong for the show in my eyes. I did continue to like the pairings chosen for the fights. I felt kinda bad for one of the gods in this season though but Brunhilde does want to win after all to save humanity. The show also continued to do the short back stories well in this season and if I had to say they did a slightly better job with those this time around Before I get into what they improved in between seasons I will say that the way in which they ended continues to be a little lacking for me. A winner must be chosen, and someone has to lose to have that happen but it's just the way the show goes about it. I truly didn't expect any side to go 7-0 but really... I am also not expecting each fight to have a decisive victor in the end of every fight either...I don't know, its just the way every fight has boiled down in the final moments has just not been my cup of tea for this series so far... Now to what I think has improved. I touched on that I think they improved telling back stories in this season. Another thing they improved on and I think this one is a massive improvement is the pacing of the fights. I think a lot of this has to do with the lack of frame cycling and such drawn out talking. The fights this season felt faster and even more action packed this time around, especially after the first one of this season. Record of Ragnarök has a lot of potential in my eyes and the creators have done a good job overall, especially going from season one to season two. I liked the "surprise" turn of events that happened at some point this season too. Much better then season one for me and a solid watch for the action fans who like a little bit of mythology. Looking forward to season 3 whenever that is supposed to be done with development
