If you’re not keeping track of the score in Record of Ragnarok, it’s now tied 3-3 between gods and humanity. With Buddha’s win, the gods have lost their composure. What should’ve been an easy tournament for me has now become a showcase of mockery for the ones who are prayed to. So how can the gods pick up some steam? As the fourteenth volume shows, it takes a king to show the world what the deities are capable of.

Most of this volume is spent on prepping for the next battle. Buddha, despite having a few new holes in his body, is up in spirits, as is Brunhilde. However, the time for celebration is short, as the next fight is about to begin. Before choosing the next competitor, Brunhilde has a nice chat with one of the smartest men in history: Nostradamus! Well…he seems smart, but his attitude doesn’t match with his foreboding premonitions.

How can the world’s biggest loser come out on top? It’s a question that races through the spectators’ brains during the fight between Poseidon and Sasaki Kojiro. While the god has won many a battle, the samurai is known more for chalking up one loss after another. Yet in Record of Ragnarok’s fourth and fifth volumes, readers will know why Kojiro has kept moving forward without a single chip on his shoulder.

As the audience watches the fight, both Poseidon and Kojiro’s back story is presented. From Poseidon’s perspective, we see a man who has tasted victory without the bitterness of failure. Perhaps his most impressive feat was killing a god (his brother Adamas), and making his existence vanish from almost everyone’s memory. But because he’s never lost a battle, Poseidon appears to never have gained anything from his wins.

That’s why Sasaki Kojiro winds up being a far better competitor than his god counterpart. His story is all about losing in order to gain knowledge. From fighting fellow samurai to becoming one with nature, Kojiro learns how to best even the toughest opponent. But his past challengers never got to have a proper rematch, as a mere look into Kojiro’s eyes is all it takes to know that they won’t win a second time.

It’s a concept that speaks many volumes in Record of Ragnarok. To lose is to learn; to win is to self-gratify. While both have their merits, defeat means there’s still plenty to learn on the path of life. Simply winning over and over again is soul-numbing, a feeling that one can see in Poseidon’s glossy-eyed face. He gets zero satisfaction with his wins, whereas Kojiro gains more enlightenment with every loss he’s given. Because of this, Kojiro is the one who looks the more intimidating in battle.
