~ Ragnorok to Crona. |
Ragnarok is a major character in Soul Eater.
He is voiced by Keiji Himeno in the Japanese version, and Sonny Strait in the English version.
Biography[]
Ragnorok was originally a human demon weapon, at some point he was melted down an mixed into black blood by Medusa Gorgon, he was then placed into her child, Crona's body. As such Ragnarok is able to enter and exit Crona's body at will, usually doing so from Crona's back. He is usually seen only from the waist up. Ragnarok is partnered with Crona and started out as a villain for most of the series, but redeemed himself in the anime when Crona did. In the manga, Ragnarok's "redemption" was short lived as Medusa forced Crona and him by extension to return to her side. Despite his short time at DWMA , Ragnarok still constantly talked down toward Crona, only relenting for sweets offered by Maka . Eventually, Crona's mind bends too far into madness and, together with Ragnorok, the two kill Medusa and go on to become a Kishin without her.
Personality[]
Ragnarok is a powerful demon weapon whose blood was melted down and merged with Crona's by Crona's horribly abusive mother, Medusa. Ragnorok eats innocent souls rather than tainted ones, and as such lacks much sanity. He normally bullies Crona in the way an older brother, would be giving them noogies, taking their food, farting on them, and threatening them constantly in battle, the latter of which is a means of motivating them when losing a battle (e.g. "If he catches up to us, Crona, I'm gonna take all your dinner tonight!"). However, he is also shown to be quite protective of them, as he refuses to let anyone else bully Crona, and motivates them when Crona is winning.
He is also considered to be quite perverted, as shown when he occasionally flips up Maka's and Tsubaki's skirts. He is also shown to possibly be bisexual, in the case in which Crona was male, and he is shown flirting (and near-raping) with Crona, while Crona kept him from attacking Maka (In the anime, Crona simply has a fight with Ragnarok). Over time Ragnarok's personality takes a drastic shift, ceasing communication all together following his and Crona's battle to the death with Tsar Pushka and Feodar, as well as their eventual killing of Medusa . Ragnarok no longer interacts with, bullies, or makes advances towards Crona like before or with anyone else, rarely even appearing unless commanded to by Crona, the reason behind this change in behavior is unknown.
Appearance[]
Despite nearly completely resembling a fully grown man, Ragnarok is a large, muscular being who is technically only a few years older than Crona. He has three spikes coming out of his neck, large, white hands, a giant "X" on his face located where his nose should be, and two eyes with "X"'s on them. Interestingly, his body feels human, however, due to being made mainly out of black blood, he is able to harden, as well as soften to liquid. He apparently has a mouth too, as when Crona was a child, he/she was smiling psychotically from all the torturous experimentation he/she endured, Ragnarok showed and smiled psychotically as well.
When in his weapon form, Ragnarok resembles a large medieval sword with spikes located on his stem. During his scream resonance, a large mouth appears on his sword and screeches.
