The anime “Record of Ragnarok” is being distributed on Netflix from June 17, 2021. This work has been a hot topic since it was serialized in “Monthly Comic Zenon.” Still, as you can see, it received a lot of attention when it was announced that it would be exclusively distributed to the whole world in 2021—it attracted a lot of attention.

This work is a battle work in which the gods are trying to decide the destruction of humankind. The heroes who remain in human history selected by Valkyrie, who is trying to overturn it, determine the sex. Graphinica was involved in the animation production, Masao Okubo was the director, and Masaki Sato, who was also the character designer for the TV animations “Slam Dunk” and “Initial D,” was in charge of character design.

He has successfully animated the original by successfully translating the touch of the original manga, which has a lot of drawing power, with the animation picture, including how to carve the contours and muscles of the face and how to add impressive shadows. For example, in the battle scene using the hammer and Ji of Thor God vs. Lu Bu, the first match, Zeus vs. Adam’s Goo Punch, is the second match. In the fighting, the screen production and the play, which are full of sharp taste, overlap. It is not a neat animation created by overly delicate drawings and colorings like TRIGGER works and Kyoto animation works. Still, somehow the comical parts that are overflowing in the original are also finished in animation. The taste is similar to, for example, “Fist of the North Star,” “Dragon Ball,” and “Kinnikuman.”

The characters of this work are also played by famous actors selected from the voice actor world. This time, we will pay attention to Miyuki Sawashiro, who plays Brynhildr, who is also the center of this work. Brynhildr, in this animation, selects heroes on the human side, has not participated in the battle so far, and is staring at the final struggle (Ragnarok) of God vs. humans from the outside. In the main story, he also acts as a storyteller while showing a loud dialogue and facial expression. While talking to Gel himself calmly, the intense facial art and bad mouth that he occasionally shows appear, which is hard to imagine from his neat facial features. Isn’t his own words, “God is much easier to sharpen than humans” (from the first volume of the original), have some influence on the demigod Brynhildr himself? It makes me want to think about it. To play her, Sawashiro was careful to say, “When you call out, the picture is already beautiful, so it doesn’t spoil the elegance of your voice, and you think it’s shit.” 1).

It also expresses the paired feeling of beauty and dirtiness. Sawashiro’s voice has her unique elegance and luster. When she is often evaluated, she is said to have a wide range of acting skills and a wide variety of voices and is said to have “seven-colored voices.” You can see that it is a low and sweet tone. It seems that each person has a character that suits the notable performances and perfects she has played so far, but it is so-called that her voice is fully demonstrated. Probably when it was an adult female character. Speaking of feelings associated with this image, Fujiko Mine of “Lupin III” who has been playing since 2011, Shion Karanomori of “PSYCHO-PASS,” Kirari Momobami of “Kakegurui,” and of course Brunhilde It fits perfectly with that image. Many people think of Mordred, which Sawashiro plays in the “Fate” series when he talks about swearing and ranting while applying firm pressure. However, Brynhildr does not curse with as much force as she does, and the acting is such that the disgust hidden inside exudes. It can be said that Sawashiro’s sweet voice works well even when he is angry, and he can express both the nobility and the violence of Brynhildr, which is accompanied by some elegance.

This work, which lasted up to 12 episodes in one course, and the original manga are still ongoing, so the second period, the sequel, is more than likely. As of June 2021, the story is not such that Brynhildr will participate in the final struggle, but what will Sawashiro do if she participates in the final battle or the battle outside the venue? I’m apprehensive about future developments. Shion Karanomori from “Psychopath,” Kirari Momobami from “Kakegurui,” and of course Brynhildr fit the image perfectly.
