Twilight of the Gods review

--

We enter a take on Norse mythology that is visually inspired by comicbook art, alluding to Zack Snyder’s adaptation of Watchmen. There is no pretense: this is an adult animated series, with sexuality and gore being handed together in the same package. The animation, by Stone Quarry and Xilam, is truly a feast for the eyes.

This is yet another series where the Aesir are portrayed as evil, which is amusing given its release after the God of War Norse Cycle and Black Myth Wukong. I suppose this could be seen as a “goðlauss “ type of story, but at least there is enough nuance to this.

Overall a strong recommendation.
