Ragnarok

Ragnarok the animation is a Japanese anime series based on the MMORPG called Ragnarok Online. It was made in 2004 and aired on the Japanese channel TV Tokyo, lasting 26 episodes. It was bought by Funimation for airing in the United States in 2007. Ragnarok takes place in a world called Rune-Midgard where an evil entity called the Dark Lord is attempting to create mass destruction through the use of seven mystical crystals. These crystals represent the seven ambitions or strengths, and were what had sealed the Dark Lord away many years ago. The main hero of the show is the young swordsman Roan who, along with his childhood friend, and acolyte Yufa, travel across the land to eventually defeat the evil Dark Lord. Yufa is also Roan's love interest. She is mourning the recent loss of her oldest brother, Keough. Keough returns from the dead as an evil being, confusing Yufa. Can she fight and defeat what was once her brother? Roan and Yufa disagree over this and Yufa leaves him for while. They later reunite to battle the Dark Lord personally. MORE
