3) Kamigami no Asobi, episode 11: It's also interesting that Loki has horns in one sequence. That seems more like a Marvel thing to me; the sources don't depict Loki with horns. And Balder in the series loves meat, as we hear in several episodes. I would associate that more with Thor, if only because of Thrymskvida from the Poetic Edda. And I don't know this doubting, desperate Loki from the sources either. #norsemythology #loki #anime #balder #kamigaminoasobi #神々の悪戯 #ragnarok #thor

2) Kamigami no Asobi, episode 11: In the series, this branch was reforged into a blade that Loki now wields. He would rather kill Balder with his own hands in order to prevent Ragnarok. This is contrary to the sources, in which Loki's actions lead directly to Ragnarok. In the series, too, everything is done to prevent destruction, but it is Loki who does everything in his power to prevent the worst from happening. #norsemythology #loki #anime #balder #kamigaminoasobi #神々の悪戯 #ragnarok

Kamigami no Asobi, Episode 10: We have a clear reference here to Loki's involvement in Ragnarok (cf. Norse sources). During the play, he clearly states that he is planning a coup d'état. At the very end, he is teased that his hair resembles a tail. Is this a reference to prose edda? Here, Loki transforms himself into a mare (which is why I mention a tail), mates with the stallion Svadilfari, and gives birth to Sleipnir. #norsemythology #loki #anime #kamigaminoasobi #神々の悪戯 #ragnarok #proseedda
