The official site for the Record of Ragnarok anime adaptation has announced a world premiere date for June 17 via Netflix. To celebrate the release date confirmation, a new trailer was also released along with updated key art and the main cast roster. First, the updated key art and new trailer can be found below:
Far above the human realm, the gods of the world gathered to determine a single problem, the survival of mankind. Under Zeus’s head, especially ancient Greek, Norse mythological, and Hindu gods convene a millennial rally to determine the fate of mankind. Due to the relentless abuse of each other and the planet, the gods now unanimously vote in favor of ending humanity.
But before the term elapses, Brunhilda, one of the thirteen half-gods Valkyrie, offers another suggestion: instead of annihilating humanity in an anti-climatic way, fight them and represent Ragnarok. Would you like to give us an opportunity? Man and god? Spurred by the boldness of the challenge, the Council of God immediately agreed and was completely confident that this contest would showcase the absolute power of the gods. To get the chance to confront the mighty heaven, Brunhilda needs to bring together the greatest people in history. Otherwise, the death penalty will certainly ring for humanity.
