Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })If you've ever played Ragnarok Online, this is the series you get to thank for its existence.In 1997, Myung-Jin Lee (a.k.a. Lord Kaho) returned from his mandatory stint in the South Korean military and formed Studio Dive to Dream Sea (Studio DTDS). Ragnarok was the very first series he worked on under this studio name for Champ Comics, Korea's top manhwa (what the Koreans call manga) publisher. Ragnarok broke a lot of ground for the Korean manhwa industry; in a roundabout way, it was the first Korean manhwa to get a Japanese anime in the form of Ragnarok the Animation (Even though it's loosely based on the MMORPG instead of the manhwa).While full of direct references to Norse lore, Ragnarok deliberately and intentionally rearranges many aspects of it to produce an entirely different world. In this version of Midgard, Ragnarok marks a period where the Aesir and Vanir battle one another, the giants seek to unmake all creation, and mankind is stuck in the middle of it all—but one faction of the gods is fighting to protect the mortal realm's interests.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })At the start of the series, Ragnarok is about to happen again. Fenris Fenrir, the female reincarnation of the eponymous god-eating wolf, is searching for the similarly reincarnated god of light, Balder, in order to finish what they started in the previous cycle. A faction of the Aesir led by Freya is also searching for him, in order to put an end to Fenris' plans before they can even begin ...... and in a far-off corner of Midgard is Chaos, a Rune Knight who's forgotten everything about his life beyond two years ago, is off bounty hunting in the wilds with Iris Irene, a cleric and heiress to the city of Fayon ...Currently, there's ten volumes of Ragnarok available, and all ten have been translated to several different languages. It's presently on hold due to the work Myung-Jin Lee is doing with Gravity on Ragnarok Online as well as other series in his studio. Although he's said that he plans to make Ragnarok span over forty volumes, it's looking like it's become an Orphaned Series, as the last volume was published back in 2002.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })Not to be confused with the Roguelike named Ragnarok. If you're looking for the actual Ragnarok from Norse lore, check here. | |

Limited Wardrobe: Played with to several different ends. Chaos initially wears the same green robes under his pauldrons, even after buying a new enchanted set of pauldrons. Iris wears the same outfit for a while, as it's the traditional training gear for Fayon's clerics. Loki's armor is revealed to be easily summonable and dismissable after the Prontera Invasion arc. Just about everyone in the A and B lists got a new outfit as of Volume 8, except for Lidia. | |

Balder's former sword, Sentinel Breeze, is also erosion-proof. It remains pristine even though his former abode, Breidablik, is in ruins. | |

Schizo Tech: A core theme of Ragnarok from its start. There's enough background events to suggest that there used to be a really advanced magical/technological civilization in Midgard, and was probably laid low by Ragnarok. The series' present day is a Medieval European Fantasy with cannons, airships, guns, and modern-looking apparel. | |

Armor Is Useless: The regular soldiers from the varying cities and countries visited are often very weill armored, sometimes wearing full plate mail ... and it does them absolutely no good against magic-wielding warriors. Most of the protagonists and antagonists wear very little armor—and if they do, it's of a magically enchanted variety. | |

RetCon | |
| Ragnarok (Manhwa) / int_b2279346 | comment |
Retcon: A few of these happen throughout the series, with little explanation as to why: In early circulations of Volume 1, Alberta is briefly shown as "a small village on the eastern border of the Midgard Kingdom." Later localizations changed the caption to read "a port town on the southeast coast of the Midgard Kingdom." Ragnarok Online probably had something to do with this one. In Volume 4, Lidia says she's searching for the riches of Thralgard, the lost ancient kingdom. When she reappears in Volume 8, she's instead looking for Alfheim. Thralgard is not mentioned at all. | |

Omnicidal Neutral | |
| Ragnarok (Manhwa) / int_b6f34e9c | comment |
Omnicidal Neutral: The Assassin's Guild's modus operandi, swiftly and brutally killing off anyone who threatens to give the Aesir, Vanir, or the giants a foothold in Midgard. Their rationale for doing this is that by keeping Midgard a "no man's land" for the gods and giants, it will stop the mortal realm from becoming their battlefield. | |

Empathic Weapon | |
| Ragnarok (Manhwa) / int_b7e1dcc8 | comment |
Empathic Weapon: Laevatein, the Rod of Destruction, can respond verbally to Fenris' commands. Evil Weapon: Talatsu, the demon sword. Forged by the Aesir, who then feared their creation and sealed it away, until a luckless knight stumbled across it ... | |

Götterdämmerung | |
| Ragnarok (Manhwa) / int_be102b6a | comment |
Götterdämmerung: Aside from the mentions that Ragnarok already happened a thousand years ago, this is not-so-subtly made a recurring theme. Fenris knows how to cast spells that, according to one of the Geffen Magic Tournament commentators, have been lost to time. The Heart of Ymir Prontera keeps under the King's Castle is nestled within extremely advanced technology far ahead of the Dungeon Punk-esque magic and technology of the present world. | |

Wutai | |
| Ragnarok (Manhwa) / int_c3fc7139 | comment |
Wutai: Fayon (or Payon in Ragnarok Online) is the Korean variant of this, and a source for many Korean culture artifacts. In an odd twist, Chaos explains to Lidia in a fast-spoken rant that Fayon is is a sanctuary for "descendants of the four constellations," and that there are many other similar sanctuaries across the mortal realm. Fayon is the capital city for all these city-sanctuaries spread across Midgard. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Ragnarok (Manhwa) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Myung-Jin Lee loves these. Here's a few examples: Cameos from Final Fantasy Tactics are everywhere in background panels, especially during the Prontera arc. Be on the look out for Razia and various character classes! During the invasion of Prontera, certain characters from The Nightmare Before Christmas can be seen among the hordes. So can the zombified versions of Virtua Fighter characters, snarfing down on another fighter from the series. A number of the iconic characters for classes from Ragnarok Online itself show up both in the background and overtly by Volume 8. Especially notable because Volume 8 was published in 2001 (when RO was in its alpha stage), and the "2-1" and "2-2" classes were appearing in their finalized forms well before Gravity so much as released their concept art. Several of the RO class characters are even given names. The female Alchemist's name is Fay Kanavion, the female Wizard's Rebecca Vernene, and the male Magician is Gustaf. | |

| Ragnarok (Manhwa) / int_ca85e684 | comment |
Power Trio: Urd, Verdandi, and Skuld, the Norns in Ragnarok. While they aren't facets of a single being, they are like the Norns of Norse lore in that they are keepers of the past, present, and future respectively. They're allies of Frigg, and covertly aid Chaos in his mission. | |

Eternal Recurrence | |
| Ragnarok (Manhwa) / int_d8f3dc8 | comment |
Eternal Recurrence: It's implied that Ragnarok is cyclical. It happened a thousand years ago, and it's about to happen again. More specifically, the Aesir and Vanir warred with one another a thousand years ago—an event that, in Norse lore, is not part of the events of Ragnarok. However, at the same time Surt and his fire giants attempted to burn away the world, an event that is. | |

| Ragnarok (Manhwa) / int_dca70c44 | comment |
Reasonable Authority Figure: General Karl Johann Spiegel. After Volsug's royal army arrested Chaos, Iris, and Fenris when Loki and Sakray attacked them in Prontera's streets, General Spiegel later visited their jail cell in disguise to let them know he'd seen that they tried to protect the citizens and heal the wounded. He offered to be their witness in the coming day's trial. | |

Culture Chop Suey | |
| Ragnarok (Manhwa) / int_df60d405 | comment |
Culture Chop Suey: While the series does include clear influences from other cultures, they're nowhere near as blatant as those in the Spin Offs. Aside from Fayon and all its Wutainess, there is also Morroc and the Arabian influences from that (the character names found among many of those in the Assassin's Guild, for instance, as well as the very concept of assassins). | |

Dub Name Change | |
| Ragnarok (Manhwa) / int_e2c4b927 | comment |
Dub Name Change: Several names are changed so they jive more with the Norse setting. "Satan Morroc" was changed to "Surt" and "Tiamat"note A dragon, much like in Dungeons & Dragons and Final Fantasy was changed to "Nidhogg", for example. In a pseudo-example of Inconsistent Dub, many of these characters also appear in Ragnarok Online, but use their original names even in the international version. | |

Art Evolution: Early on, Myung-Jin Lee handled production of Ragnarok almost entirely on his own. By Volume 8, however, other Studio DTDS artists (such as Gogo) were assisting him—and their influence on the series' style is quite noticable (especially in the difference of inking and shading). | |

Guns Are Worthless: Played with several different ways— Played straight in the battle for Payon. Not even a bridge full of cannons can make a dent in frost giants—but it's implied that they were protected by Sara Irene at the time. Doubly Subverted in the invasion of Prontera; the guard's guns and cannons were perfectly highly effective against the undead, destroying hordes of them to the point where they could no longer fight. The problem is, there were always more zombies. Later on, an airship captain attempts to protect his vessel from Gremlins with a pistol ... but shooting at them only made them angier. | |
