Enma, also known as Yama, is a supporting antagonist in the manga Record of Ragnarok Forbidden Legend - Apocalypse of The Gods, a spin-off of the manga/anime series Record of Ragnarok.
Enma is a God of the Buddhist Pantheon and the Asia's King of the Underworld. He is also one of the 16 Gods who participate in the Apocalypse Tournament to win the last place in the Gods Fighters of the Ragnarok Tournament and the possibility of creating a new law in the Constitution of Valhalla.
Appearance[]
Enma is a humanoid-looking God who has dark skin, flattened hair, square glasses, and a goatee beard. He wears a jacket similar to that of a biker with flame motifs, a band bearing his symbol on his left arm and some pants. He often smokes a cigar.
Personality[]
Enma is a very proud God, who cannot stand those who have managed to defeat him in the past, even though he recognizes his fighting qualities.
Biography[]
Enma is a God belonging to the Buddhist Pantheon and the Asia's King of the Underworld. In the past he clashed with Sun Wukong to take away his freedom, but was defeated by him and Enma is forced to erase Wukong's name from his ledger.
After the proclamation of the Ragnarok Tournament, Enma participates in the meeting of the Gods' Council in which Zeus announces the Gods Fighters that would fight in the Ragnarok Tournament representing the Gods. When many Gods become angry at the absence of their names, Sun Wukong points out that one name is missing from the list, and it is at that point that Zeus announces the Apocalypse Tournament between 16 Gods to win the last place in the Gods Fighters and the possibility of inserting a new law into the Constitution of Valhalla.
Enma also participates, and his opponent in the Round of 16 will be Shinigami. During the match between Sun Wukong and Prometheus, eventually won by Sun Wukong, Enma can't help but remember the time Wukong managed to defeat him, and he is not surprised by the abilities Wukong has developed over time.
Powers and Abilities[]
Overall Abilities: As a God, Enma possesses physical abilities far superior to those of any ordinary Human. His body cannot be damaged by mortal weapons, however it can still be damaged by unarmed attacks from individuals with superhuman strength and Divine Weapons. For the same reason, Enma is unable to die due to old age. However, Enma is no stronger than Sun Wukong, who defeated him in the past.
Trivia[]
- Although based on the God Yama of the Hindu Mythology, the Buddhist Yama has spread and developed different myths and different functions from the Hindu Deity. He has also spread far more widely and is known in most countries where Buddhism is practiced, including China, Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Vietnam, Bhutan, Mongolia, Thailand, Sri Lanka, Cambodia, Myanmar and Laos.
