Onigashima
I'm watching Record of Ragnarok on Netflix. I have no idea if it's good or not but I do like the first five minutes or so

- The gods decide that humanity is shit and they're going to erradicate us
Onigashima
Brynhilde: Actually there's this obscure old rule where gods and humans can face off in a 1v1 tournament battle called Ragnarok, and they only get erradicated if they lose. Let's do that, give them a sporting chance
Onigashima
Other gods: Listen. We put that rule in as a joke when we were drunk. It's literally impossible for humans to win it
Onigashima
Other gods: This would just be a waste of time. Don't bother
Onigashima
Brynhilde: I see. So in other words, you want to erradicate humanity without facing them in battle. It's very important to you that you not risk a conflict with humans. You're terrified of the prospect and are chickening out
Onigashima
Other gods:
Onigashima
Brynhilde: OK sounds good let's go
Onigashima
Other gods: fuck
