Fans have been desperately waiting for the decisive battle in Record of Ragnarok that is humanity’s hope to settle the score with the Gods. Quite ironically, the Valkyries have chosen someone even humankind despises with every fiber of their being.
The upcoming battle is between none other than Jack the Ripper and Hercules. One is history’s most notorious serial killer, and the other is the people’s champion who was awarded Godhood.
A battle like this is sure to put the humans’ side in a severe dilemma and is reflected in Record of Ragnarok anime’s latest trailer for season 2.
Besides Jack and Hercules, the trailer also gives us a glimpse of the previous battles and the ones scheduled for later. The upcoming matches of this season will include Shiva vs. Raiden and Zerofuku vs. Buddha.
Looking at the trailer, I can say that this anime is on its way to becoming a cult classic. All credit for its immense popularity goes to its extraordinary story, fantastic animation, and excellent voice acting.
This franchise leaves no stone unturned to pick the best of the bunch for the anime, and this time they’ve outdone themselves. The cast for these new characters has some of the most brilliant actors ever:
| Character | Cast | Other Works |
| Jack the Ripper | Tomokazu Sugita | Gintoki Sakata (Gintama) |
| Heracles | Katsuyuki Konishi | Tengen Uzui (Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba) |
| Raiden Tameemon | Subaru Kimura | Gian (Doraemon) |
| Buddha | Yūichi Nakamura | Satoru Gojō (Jujutsu Kaisen) |
If you’re impressed by their other projects, your mind would be blown to know that these actors have done many such prominent roles. Sugita has also voiced Escanor in Seven Deadly Sins, while Nakamura is famous for his role as Kuroo in Haikyuu! and Hawks in My Hero Academia.
So, it’s safe to say the season will raise the bar for anime visually and aurally next year.
