Jormungand (2012)

Overview

Jonah is a child soldier and the newest bodyguard for Koko, an international arms dealer with an entourage of hired guns. The cold-blooded kid hates Koko’s line of work, but following her into the darkest corners of the black market might be the only way he can find those responsible for his family’s slaughter. Besides, his employer isn’t like most merchants of death. She uses guile and cutthroat tactics to keep her clients armed to the teeth—all while cultivating her own warped plan for the future of world peace. With the CIA desperate for her capture, assassins eager to collect her head, and the potential for every contract to end in ultra-violence, Koko and her comrades in arms bring the boom to every corner of the world.

Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Leans Progressive

Primary

The film critiques the global arms trade and the cycle of violence, but its proposed solution involves an authoritarian, technologically enforced peace, presenting a morally ambiguous scenario that balances competing viewpoints on power and human nature.

The movie features a visibly diverse international cast, reflecting its global setting and themes. The narrative explores the complexities of the arms trade and individual morality without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or making DEI themes central to its core message.

Secondary

Jormungand features a prominent lesbian character, Valmet, whose deep love for her female boss, Koko, is a central aspect of her character and motivation. Her identity is portrayed with dignity and complexity, driving her actions without being a source of ridicule or negative stereotypes. The show's overall depiction of LGBTQ+ themes is affirming.

The show features female characters who are highly skilled combatants. Several instances depict these characters engaging in and winning close-quarters physical fights against multiple male opponents using martial arts, knives, or swords.

Jormungand does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The narrative does not explore transgender identity, nor does it present any related plot points or character arcs.

The anime series "Jormungand" is a direct adaptation of the manga, and all established characters maintain their original genders from the source material. No characters who were canonically male or female in the manga are portrayed as a different gender in the show.

The anime adaptation of "Jormungand" faithfully portrays the established racial backgrounds of its characters as depicted in the original manga series. No instances of a character's race being altered from the source material are present.
