Nice way to end the season off. I liked Valmet when I first saw it but I like her even more now, way more than in comparison to the first time I saw the show. Good to see her get some sort of closure and seeing her shield Jonah after how he was there for her as well as Koko was pretty badass and loyal too. Good thing she's alright in the end, even doing crunches when Koko and Jonah were talking together outside.

And glad to see the others in the crew safe too after the attempted hit.

In terms of a finale wrap-up for the season, it's not the most exciting or thrilling but it does a good job in ending the season regardless and the cliffhanger clearly shows that the real deal is on in the second season narratively. I definitely think the 2nd season Perfect Order will be better but this season was still a fun watch regardless, especially seeing Koko again brought me tons of joy on the inside. 8-8.5/10 overall.

A nice season finale. Sofia gets her revenge and Koko survived the hitjob. Hakkaa päälle! And we're probably getting some CIA antagonism next season.

How did Valmer not die!!! 🤦‍♂️ This is what I hate about all animes that handles mafia and weapons like this one. Their execution are all bad, their plot are all horible, no logic at all. Being shot from short distance, only 2 bullets hit 😂 and by coincidence it only hits her thighs and didnt die 🤦‍♂️ thats bullshit
At least let one character die, it will be more emotional, logical and more convincing and good as a plot. This was their chance and they wasted it.

My 184th completed series chronologically.

For the record, I extended it a 7/10 rating.

Insane stuff especially that car chase with Ugo's driving skill and that .50ml bullets almost
blew off Dominique head with that low key loco ost. 10/10 for that.

Ah.... Valmet sure stole the key of my heart with those insane skills of her, my only gripe is that we didn't see the fight between Mr. Chen and her.

as for Karen she lost all reason and mentally broke down and missed most of her shots that's the only explanation of how she and Valmet survived of course Jonah.

my final thoughts of this season was pretty good solid 8/10

Nice showcase from Ugo, that was seriously badass af for a chaffeur xD

@Raizel Can't have her doing some fucked up shit on screen when she's so cute in the very same episode. Her surviving these gunshots however...That was some Grade A bullshit even for this show, lmao.

Still awesome watch overall and bless the nipple service.

As conclusion Jormungand was a great watch, interesting setting and likeable characters.
Nowadays I kind of miss the hardboiled, violent, trigger happy action animes.

Koko being Koko made it a fun ride, her english dub voice is lovely.
Even though a bunch of bad people were mowed down, this show handled it very light hearted.

about this episode:

Sofia killed like 12 private security person without mercy, but hey she is no bad person and actually cute and shielded Jonah, we can't let her die XD
I'm glad she made it, but I thought these shots were lethal to begin with.
Maybe that could have directed a bit differently

Sadly this is the final episode of the first season, Among the many animes out there this was the most military oriented and to certain extends realistic as ever. Aside from Black lagoon that is anyway...

Valmet finally got her revenge, all of her former units souls can rest in peace now. Although I was worried for a moment as I really thought Karen, killed Valmet considering she pretty much berserk and shot her in the back multiple times while she protected Jonah. Which was a lovely display of her affection towards him as she even said herself, the only person i'd risk my life to protect is Koko. Was shocked a little by the fact Jonah patched her up on the spot afterwards, so he has medical skills?...

Don't forget to watch the after credits scene. Holy shit! R? Well that certainly leaves me eager to watch season 2...

More nudity. Nice.
Jonah def saved valmet and the outcome of her battle was expected. Like c'mon fighting a cripple lol while I thought she and Karen both died, you can chalk up to being hysterical and Jonah being drugged to missed fatal shots. It was just plot armor though. Ending seems like something bigger for next season but overall very entertaining and fun show. Kept my attention throughout

Karen's sweaty and topless scene. I really would like to lick her armpits and tap her!
I agree with Koko. Sofia should grow her hair longer. She looks sexier that way.
As expected, nobody died. Hopefully, something interesting will happen in S2.
That was an interesting post-credit scene.

There were only four things I liked about this show: the title, the opening (it a banger), the ending, and Koko Hekmatyar. I expected more of this show but the last few episodes weren't very bad. I will watch the sequel if there's any.

Also, were they in Alexandria, Egypt? There are many cities called Alexandria around the world.
If you are going to disagree with me, don't bother talking to me. I will seriously hurt you!

well... season 1 was a fun ride for sure. I liked the mini-arc aspect of the show, allowing you to start watching and stop anytime without major cliffhangers in between arcs. It's surprising to me that the entire crew is still alive by the end of the first season. Usually, in shows like this, character death is used as a tool to enhances the connection between the viewer and the anime. We came close to losing 2 in the last 2 episodes but that's about it. I'm still not sure how I feel about that whole Valmet appeared to be dying and then nothing happens and she wakes up in a hospital. Those were definitely way more than 4 bullets that hit her. And Karen survived as well taking 2 shots to the heart. A little unrealistic but I enjoyed the show nonetheless. And ngl, I'm glad no one died lol. That was a crazy twist at the end as well. Onto the next season. I have a feeling things are about to get real! > 6:17 AM, 24/01/25

Absolutely loved Koko’s Door Fu move—LOL. What a hilariously brutal way to take someone out. And that car chase was epic. The face-to-face shootout was pure cinematic gold, made even better with “Her name is Koko, she is loco” blaring in the background. Totally killer.

I was a bit disappointed we didn’t get to see Shaojiang’s final battle with Valmet. I doubt it was a long fight though, as he didn’t even seem to land a single blow. Maybe it was a quick two-stroke duel, the one strike we saw followed by the finishing move. Either way, it felt like the revenge arc came full circle, leaving Jonah as the last one standing... until, of course, we find out neither of the dead women actually died.

Honestly, this show gives off Bleach vibes. Major characters, especially on Koko’s team, just don’t seem to die. Even the quirky team of assassins survived and started a restaurant. Fingers crossed they make a return in Season 2 😄


The bit with Bookman Saw from the CIA and R at the end felt a little random, but it’s clearly setting up a cliffhanger for the next season. I’m excited. This was a wild ride and definitely one of the more unique anime I’ve seen in a while. It had a strong seinen feel, which I really appreciated.
Score: 8/10 on MAL.
