Matantei Loki (Mythical Detective Loki)
The Mythical Detective Loki Ragnarok (Matantei Loki Ragnarok) is a manga by Sakura Kinoshita published from August 1999 to October 2004. A television anime based upon the manga series ran for 26 episodes from April 5 to September 27, 2003 in Japan.
The main character is Loki, the Norse god of mischief. After causing boundless trouble in the land of the gods, Loki is banished to the world of humans and transformed into a childhood version of himself. To get home, he must collect "evil airs" (evil spirits), so he sets up Enjaku Detective Agency, specializing in strange and paranormal cases to make his search easier. For better or worse, he attracts Mayura Daidouji— a mystery-crazed teenage girl who quickly appoints herself a member of his detective agency.
The series is based upon Norse mythology, but with many artistic liberties taken with the source material for the manga, and many further changes made from the manga to the anime. For instance, an extra illustration at the end of the 7th volume of The Mythical Detective Loki is a mini-diagram of Loki´s family tree, which makes reference to Sigyn, Vali, Nari, and Sleipnir, who never appear in either the manga or anime.
