The official website of the Shuumatsu no Walküre (Record of Ragnarok) anime series announced a second season on Wednesday. Character designer Masaki Satou drew an illustration to commemorate the announcement (pictured above).

The first season will be broadcast on television in Japan on October 2 at 12:30 a.m. on Tokyo MX and BS11, followed by MBS at 2:55 a.m. Cartoon Network will also air the anime on Sundays at 11:00 p.m. beginning October 3. The anime streamed worldwide on Netflix on June 17.

Shuumatsu no Walküre adapts Shinya Umemura, Takumi Fukui, and illustrator Ajichika's dark fantasy battle action manga, which began in Monthly Comic Zenon in November 2017. Coamix published the 11th volume on June 18. The manga has a cumulative 7 million copies of its volumes in circulation.

VIZ Media licensed the manga in English in June and plans to release the first volume digitally on October 26 and physically on January 18, 2022.

Synopsis
High above the realm of man, the gods of the world have convened to decide on a single matter: the continued existence of mankind. Under the head of Zeus, the deities of Ancient Greece, Norse mythology, and Hinduism, among others, call an assembly every one thousand years to decide the fate of humanity. Because of their unrelenting abuse toward each other and the planet, this time the gods vote unanimously in favor of ending the human race.

But before the mandate passes, Brunhild, one of the 13 demigod Valkyries, puts forth an alternate proposal: rather than anticlimactically annihilating mankind, why not give them a fighting chance and enact Ragnarök, a one-on-one showdown between man and god? Spurred on by the audacity of the challenge, the divine council quickly accepts, fully confident that this contest will display the utter might of the gods. To stand a chance against the mighty heavens, Brunhild will need to assemble history's greatest individuals, otherwise the death knell will surely be sounded for mankind. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Talk about unexpected. Guess the viewership and the manga sales boost helped despite the bad quality.

If this anime being made by the same studio from season 1, then my hope for this anime is low in terms of animations.

Maybe this will actually be animated this time.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords.

Honestly wasn't a huge fan of the 1st season. I loved the concept but for a battle with gods the animation and fight scenes were just not what I was hoping for compared to other action based series I've seen before. A lot of it just didn't make much sense to me and I ended up only watching 6 episodes, which should be more than enough of an investment to determine if something is entertaining. Glad for all the fans out there that they get more, but for me I'm just curious if I'm an outlier or if it's actually surprising that this is getting season 2?

Season 1 was as boring as the Godzilla trilogy on Netflix, so I hope season 2 delivers a significant improvement, but I'm not holding my breath for it.

Animation wise, Lu Bu vs Thor was eh, Adam vs Zeus was trash (I cry every time) but Kojiro vs Poseidon wasn't half bad, so I hope they improve on the latter fights' animation and give Jack vs Heracles the treatment that it deserves

Are Netflix sure about this. Is saw 2 episodes of the first season and it was pretty boring. I hope they improve on that. The bigger problem is that anyone who wants to watch season 2 will have to go through the hell of season 1.

Am I the one imagining too much, or is Lü Bu really banging Adam in the drawing?

Anyway, this news makes me happy. I can't wait to know who is going to voice Jack the Ripper. And I hope the animation quality is improved in the second season, though I thought it was already fine in the first, considering the great quality of the other parts of the production, including the great OSTs and voice acting.

You forgot to account for hardcore manga fans who desired for this to get some justice.

So since Season 2 is already on its way, one can only fingers crossed to see where this goes.

To hell it goes.

Name a case where a crap S1 becomes decent at S2.

Anime usually stays at the same level of production all seasons, OR get a drop of quality (lolOverlord S3, OPM S2, each season of Date a Live getting worse) somewhere.

Quintessential Quintuplets changed studios, and animation wise it was definitely better than the first season.

It's a good thing that it's getting a 2nd season. Since the manga is too good to worth not adaptating. And the show also ended on a cliffhanger. I want to see all of it animated! (Hopefully they don't rush through the 2nd season)

Season 2? To be honest I didn't really expect s2 from this anime. For me, the manga is enough, but many people don't read the manga. So, I can only hope that season 2 is more interesting than season 1. I can't wait for the Jack the ripper fight
