Record of Ragnarok

At the Council of Valhalla, the gods decide to end humanity, but Brunhilde, the eldest Valkyrie, voices a lone protest.

Lü Bu, a powerful warlord from the Han dynasty, competes against Thor, the Norse god of thunder, in the first round of the Ragnarok battle, managing to hold his own and earning the admiration of both participants and spectators.

Brünnhilde enlists her sister Randgriz to become the sacred weapon Shield Breaker in order to strengthen Lü Bu's position against Thor.

Lü Bu sustains a serious injury when his legs are crushed by Geirröd's powerful hammer attack. As the situation looks grim, his loyal steed, Red Hare, arrives to rescue him.

The next contestant selected is Adam, the father of humanity and a figure harboring more resentment toward the gods than any other.

Zeus challenges Adam to battle, leading Adam to form an alliance with Valkyrie Reginleif in order to find a special weapon—a knuckleduster.

As Adam appears poised to secure a long-sought victory for humankind, Zeus regains his strength and confronts him, questioning his true motivations for the battle.

Zeus achieves his most powerful transformation, but the strain of battle leaves him weakened and struggling to persist.

In a high-stakes conflict, humanity readies itself for battle against Poseidon, one of the most powerful deities, in a desperate effort to achieve victory.

Kojiro Sasaki defeats Poseidon using his powerful Tsubame Gaeshi technique, but the sea god proves to be a formidable and persistent opponent.

Kojiro's broken sword is reforged into twin blades by Valkyrie Hrist, allowing him to tap into a greater source of personal power.

Kojiro faces intense pressure from Poseidon's overwhelming power despite his mastery of the Niten Ganryu dual-blade technique. The battle remains unresolved as both combatants push their limits.

The gods choose Hercules, the legendary hero, as their next champion in the ongoing battle against humanity, signaling their determination to prevent a human victory.

The audience notices that Hercules's tattoos are spreading quickly, and it becomes evident that if the trend continues, it will result in his death.

Set in 19th-century London, the story follows a young boy living in poverty who possesses an unusual gift that aids him in navigating the harsh realities of his environment.

Hercules, despite having lost his left arm, remains determined and powerful, demonstrating his strength by executing his ultimate technique, the Twelfth Labor.

The fourth round of the competition intensifies dramatically, testing both fighters to their physical and emotional extremes. When the match ends, the mood remains subdued, with the announcement of the winner met by silence rather than celebration or joy.

Brünnhilde seeks out Tameemon Raiden, the legendary and most powerful sumo wrestler in history, in an effort to harness his strength and bolster humanity's cause.

In a dramatic crossover of myth and sport, the Hindu deity of destruction, Supreme Lord Shiva, steps into the sumo ring to face the formidable wrestler Tameemon Raiden.

Shiva reflects on his close friendship with Rudra, who later invites him to join an ambitious journey with an undefined objective.

Raiden, who previously held back his power as a child to prevent causing harm to others, reveals his full strength during an intense, high-stakes battle.

The competition reaches a dramatic conclusion that even impresses Zeus, though he remains resolute in his pursuit of a divine victory.

As the teams continue to be closely matched, Buddha reveals his plan to participate in the next round of competition, although his true allegiance remains unclear.

Zerofuku, overwhelmed by human suffering, attempts to take it all upon itself, but finds that absorbing unhappiness alone cannot eliminate pain.

A prince who was raised in a life of luxury and privilege makes the surprising choice to leave behind his royal status and set out into the unknown.

A mysterious and powerful new character arrives, whose unpredictable nature challenges even Buddha's ability to anticipate events.

The match seems to be over, but Buddha unexpectedly gets back up, displaying a resurgence of strength. He may still have an opportunity to earn a crucial point for the human team.

As humanity celebrates, the results of the sixth round create unease in the divine realm, leading Brunhilde and Hermes to reflect on the previous conflicts and the lasting resilience of humankind.

As the gods pursue a decisive victory, Hades takes action to avenge his brother, while humanity enlists Qin Shi Huang, resulting in a dramatic confrontation between ancient rulers.

Qin Shi Huang, after unifying China, travels alone to Mount Tai to assert his authority before the demon god Chi You. There, he experiences a transformation and attains mastery of a supreme martial art.

In the early years of his life, Qin Shi Huang faces a challenging and unfriendly environment, yet finds comfort and joy through his developing bond with his strict and devoted caretaker.

In the seventh round, Hades injures himself to fuel his weapon with fresh power.

Qin Shi Huang, on the brink of death, accesses Alvitr's power to invoke the Force of the Phoenix again as Hades readies a decisive attack with his spear.

In the eighth round, Beelzebub, a deity cursed by Satan and now shunned by others, is chosen by the gods. He once had three close companions who played a significant role in shaping his path.

Tesla determines that Beelzebub's abilities stem from a scientific occurrence and applies his intelligence to create a solution.

Tesla captures Beelzebub in the Gematria Zone and attacks using the Tesla Step, but Beelzebub adapts and effectively counters. The gods had anticipated a quick victory, but the battle turns out to be more complex than expected.

Despite Beelzebub's use of Helheim's forbidden technique, Tesla remains resolute in the face of the attack. As the battle intensifies, he is reminded of memories from his childhood involving his brother.

Tesla, despite his injuries, continues to challenge Beelzebub, forcing the demon into a desperate position. Their intense confrontation brings the battle between scientific reason and ancient myth to a decisive moment.

In the ninth round of the gods' battle, Apollo, the god of the sun, confronts King Leonidas of Sparta, with neither side showing any indication of retreating.

In the story, King Leonidas of Sparta questions Apollo's prophecies by leading his people into war, and in the present, he faces Apollo directly in a battle that could determine the outcome of their conflict.

Leonidas engages in a fierce struggle with Apollo, overpowering him with unwavering determination. Although Apollo rises again, bloodied, many gods mock his arrogance, while Zeus and Ares acknowledge the reality of the moment.

As both warriors approach the brink of death, they demonstrate mutual respect for each other's strength and courage. Leonidas reconfigures his shield and charges forward, while Apollo prepares his legendary bow for the final confrontation.
