They would never make the mistake of calling me there in the first place.

I'm pretty sure I know which one you're talking about. I watched the first two episodes and then gave up because I was just getting nothing from it.

I would look up historical events, so that I can predict the future, then make people think I am a seer. Eventually these talents would catch the attention of a King or a powerful Lord, and warn them against any potential threats, disasters, or bad decisions that they might make at some point down the road, and tell them how to avoid it.

This would put me in a position of tremendous power and influence (though my actual standard of living wouldn't be as good as today, because life back then sucked.)

Alternatively, they might just kill me for being a witch or sorceror. It really depends on where I go.

Also, I'm curious: what was the anime called?

Well, if it's about Vikings, it can't be all bad, can it?

(and then I remember how bad the Vikings TV show has gotten...)

Still, listen to this song:

Two minutes into the first episode (I think it's the first episode?) and no Vikings. Why the hell does it have Ragnarok in the title, then?

---

And what the fuck is up with the hammer-wielding red-haired guy in the opening theme song?

---

And why the hell is he fighting a white haired girl with a katana?

And why isn't that katana a bunch of fragments now?

Nah, it's just bad.

It's an Isekai harem series. No vikings.

So is there an English version of it?

The first three minutes is one of the cringiest things I have ever witnessed in my life, yet I'm strangely hyped for it.

Also, why the hell are spears punching through armour like it's nothing?

And why are they giving Alexander the Great credit for the phalanx formation?

Not that I know of. Then again, I don't bother searching. Subtitles are 100% fine with me.


Personal opinion: If you're going to dissect everything that's factually wrong with a series like that, don't bother watching it. Seriously.
