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 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, Brunhilde, 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, Brunhilde will need to assemble history's greatest individuals, otherwise the death knell will surely be sounded for mankind.

Preliminary (89/? eps)
Shuumatsu no Walküre has one of the best premises I've ever seen!

I started reading the work before the anime came out and I simply liked it a lot because of its initial idea of ​​"Humans VS Gods" which is something I don't remember having seen before, at least not as the main proposal of a work.

I think the style in which the story is told is very good, where the fight begins and then goes on to tell the story of X god or X human, so that we become attached to one of the sides during the fight. However, this decision of which side ...

Mixed Feelings
Preliminary (57/? eps)
The manga is, at most, okay. The power dynamics are cool and there are really interesting ideas. Some fights are cool (like the fight with Jack The Ripper, which is different from the others), but there are some tedious and more-of-the-same fights (like the Hades fight): that's why I dropped it.

I really don't like how the gods were written. Some of them should be really powerful according to the mythology, but in the series they are just average, like Ares (goofy god who, apparently, doesn't understand about fights?). The manga also creates stories and even a new god to explain its lore, so it's not ...

Preliminary (47/? eps)
Pros:
+ Some of the fights are pretty decent if you ignore the whole premise and just imagine they are two superhumans facing off.
+ Incredibly detailed artwork fitting for an action manga. (though I'm not a fan of character's expressions)

Cons:
-The story isn't even worth thinking about as it's just a means for the tournament style fights
- Awful representation of gods/demi gods from various Mythos and real historical figures completely butchering their backstories & personalities.
- Pathetic abilities given to the so called gods in the series, not even having powers related to their domain.
It feels like the writer had to nerf the gods that much to even ...
