“Whaaaaat — Season 4 is happening, everyone!!! That incredible sword fight in the upcoming match is finally coming to life in animation! There’s even a gunfight! And not to mention the tangled, messy love and the swirling conspiracies! To witness this new phase of Record of Ragnarok in animated form… it’s just amazing!!! To everyone involved in bringing this to life, and to everyone watching and supporting us—thank you so much!! I’m beyond excited!!! Please look forward to it!!”  Azychika

“At last — Season 4! This is all thanks to the incredible efforts of the anime staff, the voice cast, and, above all, the fans around the world who continue to support us. Thank you very much!

From an all-out, authentic sword-fighting battle to a strategic showdown reminiscent of the Jack the Ripper match, both fights offer the kind of unique expression only animation can deliver. I’m truly looking forward to the day we can all experience them on screen!!”  Shinya Umemura
