This was a great series! If you watched Final Fantasy Unlimited and was disappointed that it lacked a lot of mechanics from the game, you will love Ragnarok. This series is based off of an online MMO (massive multiplayer online) so be ready to see a lot of things that might feel more like a game than a movie or episode. This series does not hide the fact that it has a class system like games do (wizard, knight, crusader, monk, etc) and labels them as such in the series and there are even developments almost every character makes to become stronger in their ownterms. The animation is great, clean and not over cluttered and characters were nicely drawn as well. The voice overs were fine for me, nothing too annoying. The story was a simple quest like setup, banishing monsters from places etc. each character with their own agenda in mind. I would agree that Yufa was dumb at times, but her character really wanted to heal her brother and not shun him so for me it fits her character. The ending was awesome and although at times I did wonder where things were going and when they would pick up the series never got too dull and did manage to pick up and keep up about half way through. If you are looking for a series that is like a game with knights and casting spells as they say them (that did get a little annoying but at least it did not take forever to cast a spell) like boomerang shield! and Holy Cross! then watch this, you will not be disappointed. If you think these elements mixed into a series will only be cheesy and get in the way of developeing a super deep plot then skip it.
