The anime adaptation of the successful manga "Record of Ragnarok" (Japanese: "Shuumatsu no Walküre") will continue. As Warner Bros. Japan announced on June 27, 2026, the fourth season titled "Record of Ragnarok IV" is officially in production. At the same time, the company released a first teaser trailer, the new season logo, and a commemorative illustration drawn by mangaka Azychika.
The third season of the series launched worldwide exclusively on Netflix in December 2025 and celebrated its Japanese TV premiere in April 2026 on channels MBS, TOKYO MX, and BS11. It reached the weekly Netflix Top 10 in 83 countries and regions, including first place in 13 countries. This global response paved the way for another season.
According to the creators, the fourth season will focus on the tenth and eleventh rounds of the titular tournament, which decides the fate of humanity. Author Shinya Umemura announced "a true sword fight and a tactical battle like we haven't seen since Jack the Ripper's fight." Azychika also highlighted a spectacular sword scene, a shootout, as well as "dark love and intrigue." Takumi Fukui, responsible for the story structure, expressed confidence that the fights will become "even hotter, more intense, and more explosive."
The manga "Record of Ragnarok" has been serialized in "Monthly Comic Zenon" (Coamix) since November 2017 and has now reached a circulation of over 18 million copies. It tells the story of a tournament in which 13 legendary humans from history face off against 13 gods to prevent the extinction of humanity. The first season of the anime aired in 2021, and the second season was released in two parts in 2023—also on Netflix.
The third season was directed by Koichi Hatsumi ("Tokyo Revengers"), with series composer Yasuyuki Muto and character designers Yoko Tanabe and Hisashi Kawashima. The animation was handled by Yumeta Company and MARU Animation. A premiere date for the fourth season has not yet been set; further details on the cast and production team are expected in the coming months.
