The Official Record of Ragnarok Season 3 Release Date and Streaming Details
The crucial question that has dominated the anime community has a definitive answer: Record of Ragnarok Season 3 will officially premiere on Netflix on December 10, 2025.

Fans worldwide will be able to binge-watch the next thrilling phase of the Ragnarok Tournament right away.
- Title: Record of Ragnarok III (Shuumatsu no Valkyrie Season 3)
- Official Release Date: December 10, 2025
- Streaming Platform: Netflix (Global Exclusive)
- Anticipated Arc: The Seventh Round (Qin Shi Huang vs. Hades)
The anime adaptation is based on the critically acclaimed manga series written by Shinya Umemura and Takumi Fukui, and illustrated by Azychika. The first two seasons covered the initial six rounds of the tournament, leaving the score tied at 3-3 heading into the next chapter.
A New Era of Animation: Studio Changes and Production Overhaul
One of the most talked-about topics regarding the anime has been the quality of its animation, particularly during the intense action sequences. For Season 3, the production committee has implemented a significant overhaul, bringing in new talent to elevate the visual experience, which is a common practice for this series.
The Studios Behind Season 3
The production for Record of Ragnarok Season 3 will see a new collaboration. While the previous seasons were handled by Graphinica (Season 1) and a co-production between Graphinica and Yumeta Company (Season 2), the third season will be animated by a new partnership:
- Yumeta Company: Returning from Season 2, Yumeta Company will continue to lend its expertise, aiming for a consistent visual style that fans have grown accustomed to.
- Maru Animation: The significant addition for Season 3 is Maru Animation. Their involvement signals a fresh approach and a dedicated effort to improve the fluidity and detail of the pivotal battle sequences, addressing some of the critiques from earlier seasons.
This studio shake-up is a strong indicator that the production team is committed to delivering a higher caliber of animation for the climactic fights, ensuring the sheer power of the gods and the resilience of the human champions are fully realized on screen.
The Main Event: Qin Shi Huang vs. Hades
The climax of Record of Ragnarok Season 2 saw the conclusion of the Sixth Round, a spectacular and surprising battle between the human-aligned Buddha and the fused god Zerofuku/Hajun. With the score tied, the stage is now set for a monumental Seventh Round, which is the primary focus of the new season’s promotional material and trailers.
Season 3 will prominently feature the showdown between two legendary kings, each representing the pinnacle of their respective domains:
Humanity's Champion: Qin Shi Huang
Representing humanity is Qin Shi Huang, the First Emperor of China. Known for unifying the Warring States and establishing the Qin Dynasty, Qin Shi Huang is a figure of immense historical weight and imposing presence. His fighting style, based on his own unique martial arts and mastery of Chi, promises a dynamic and strategic fight. He enters the arena with the weight of Chinese history and the hope of all mankind on his shoulders.
The God of the Underworld: Hades
Opposing the First Emperor is Hades, the God of the Underworld and the elder brother of Zeus and Poseidon. Hades steps into the arena not as a scheduled fighter, but out of a fierce desire for revenge following the defeat of his younger brother, Poseidon, in the Third Round. His use of a massive bident and his overwhelming aura as the King of the Netherworld make him perhaps the most formidable divine opponent yet. This battle is fueled by vengeance and the clash of two supreme rulers.
The Seventh Round is widely considered one of the manga's best, blending intense martial arts with mythological power and deep character backstories. The dynamic of a king fighting a king—a true clash of monarchs—will be the heart of Season 3, offering a blend of tragedy, spectacle, and philosophical debate that the series is known for.
What to Expect from the New Season
Beyond the main event, Record of Ragnarok Season 3 will continue to flesh out the world and mythology of the series. Fans can anticipate:
- Valkyrie Sisterhood: Further development of the relationship between Brunhilde and Geir, the two Valkyries leading humanity’s last stand. Brunhilde's strategic genius will be tested more than ever as the tournament reaches its midpoint.
- New Gods and Humans: While the Seventh Round is the focus, the season will likely introduce the fighters for the Eighth Round, setting the stage for future conflicts. Potential fighters include Nikola Tesla, King Leonidas, Susanoo-no-Mikoto, and Apollo.
- Deeper Lore: Expect more flashbacks and character exploration, particularly into the lives of Qin Shi Huang and Hades, providing the emotional stakes that underpin the brutal violence of the Ragnarok Tournament.
- Improved Action: The addition of Maru Animation and the focus on the production overhaul strongly suggests that the fight choreography and visual effects will be noticeably improved, delivering the high-quality spectacle that this series demands.
With the official release date of December 10, 2025, now confirmed, the countdown has begun for the next epic chapter of Record of Ragnarok. Prepare for the ultimate clash of kingdoms on Netflix.
