Lately I've been watching lots of animes on Netflix (but there's not as much compared to Crunchyroll tho), especially the exclusive ones to that streaming platform. One of those which impressed me the most (even for its weird scenes) is called Shuumatsu no Valkyrie: Record of Ragnarok, a manga which spawned an anime adaptation (and a live action stage show too interestingly enough) which despite airing on TV in Japan at first, it struck a deal with Netflix for international streaming rights (suck it Crunchyroll!).Essentially the whole anime/manga is just one huge-ass tournament arc called Ragnarok with humans facing against gods such as Zeus (believe me the way they portrayed him there is just...Wow), Thor, Hercules, etc. Each human is partnered with one of the 13 Valkyries lead by Brunhilde/Brynhildr (1st) the protagonist alongside the youngest member Göll/Geir (13th), in order to perform Völundr for them where they transform into weapons suitable for each of them (except for the two main ones so far).Besides that premise, I really like the designs for all of them, so far 10 have been unveiled with 3 remaining in the manga (7 so far have been adapted for the anime), although the muscled one Thrud is the only one untrained since despite liking her design she's not really my favorite honestly like with the rest of them. (And for those asking if I should also train the humans and gods too, personally I'm not too thrilled into training fujoshi husbandos in general, I'm all for those androgynous ones known as traps more instead, despite liking them too a lot with my personal favorite being Jack the Ripper)Naturally it'll eventually be updated with the 3 remaining Valkyries left to be revealed somewhere down the chapters of the manga to come in the future (if I'll like 'em all that is), for now enjoy the 6 Valkyrires I liked the most from the Netflix anime adaptation, all tags will be on the "About this version" tab for each Valkyrie alongside a brief description of them.

Shuumatsu no Valkyrie: Record of Ragnarok Valkyries LoCon

Brunhilde/Brynhildr is the leader (1st) of the 13 Valkyries who partner with the humans in each battle of Ragnarok in order to perform Völundr where they transform into a preferred weapon for each human. While at first she may look cold, stoic and regally imposing, she's also manipulative, vindictive, vulgar, ill-tempered and forceful, having a bat-**** crazy personality whenever she gets excited, angry, or sad. She tends to display some exaggerated expressions worthy of JoJo memes, infact her face design in the anime adaptation seems like a cross between Tite Kubo and Hirohiko Araki (infact I wouldn't be surprised that much seeing her in one of those two artstyles eventually...). Interestingly enough she happens to be friends with the god Hercules alongside Göll/Geir, breaking down in tears all alone in secrecy after he got killed by Jack the Ripper while mourning him (interesting match that was). She also has a boyfriend, being the half-god dragon slayer knight Sigfried, who hasn't done much so far in the manga, being locked down in a prison for some reason. <s>Did I also mention she happens to have scars across her body which hasn't been shown neither in the manga nor the anime so far, only appearing in a character design booklet which came bundled with volume 18?</s>Her dress is quite complex in design, so don't expect tons of models to generate it perfectly sadly and sometimes her winged hair ornament might be placed on the wrong side too for some reason. Thankfully she's somewhat flexible with other clothing in general, even tho it might occasionally bleed some details of her original costume once in a while.
