 Ragnarok. The Fate of the Gods
What is unique about Ragnarok as an Armageddon tale is that the gods already know through prophecy what is going to happen: when the event will occur, who will be slain by whom, and so forth.
Ragnarok will be preceded by the Fimbulwinter, the winter of winters.
Ragnarok does not mean "Twilight of the Gods"; that phrase is the translation of Götterdämmerung, which, in turn, is a German mistranslation of the word Ragnarok, arising from a confusion between Old Norse rök ("fate", cognate to wreak, wreck) and rökkr ("twilight, darkness", cognate to erebos).

 Ragnarok Online Project - What is Ragnarok?
Ragnarok Online is an MMORPG created by Gravity Corporation of South Korea.
In Norse Mythology, Ragnarok ("fate of the gods") is the battle at the end of the world.
The word Ragnarok is derived from the Old Norse word Ragnarök, which consists of two parts: ragna is the genitive plural of regin ("gods" or "ruling powers"), while rök means "fate", etymologically related to English "reach".

 Manhwa
Manhwa, in Korean, is a general term for comics and cartoons (including animated cartoons).
Although manhwa is distinct from Japanese manga and Chinese manhua, all three terms are cognates.
Manhwa is read in the same direction as Western books, horizontally and from left to right, because hangul is normally written and read horizontally (although it can also be written and read like Chinese and Japanese, that is, vertically from right to left).

Ragnarok the Animation is like a lump of coal dressed in a fancy christmas box.
Despite the fact that this series was originally based on an extremely popular manhwa, it suffers terribly from having been more immediately modeled after the extremely popular online game that came out between the two.
Being a loyal Ragnarok Online player for 2 and half years, I'd say this anime was a good tribute to the PC game.

All this interest in manga is certainly good news for the manga-ka and the Japanese publishers, but the hype has also proved to be lucrative for the lesser known manhwa, which are comics published in Korea.
While CPM Manga delved into manhwa's past to find its first manhwa series-- books from Hyun Se Lee, who is to manhwa what Osamu Tezuka is to manga-- TOKYOPOP sought out and licensed recent manhwa, created by some of the hippest and most promising creators on the scene.
Its setting is the old American West, an era and place that is about as different from Korea as one can get, and yet the setting feels authentic, at least in regards to how that era was portrayed by the likes of John Houston and Sergio Leone.

 Loki - Free Encyclopedia of Thelema
His wife Sigyn (a goddess, not the giantess who was the mother of Loki's monster brood) gathered the venom in a bowl, but from time to time she had to turn away to empty it, at which point the poison would drip onto Loki, who writhed in pain, thus causing earthquakes.
Loki is the main hero of the Matantei Loki Ragnarok manga by Sakura Kinoshita, published from August, 1999 to December, 2001.
In the Ragnarok manhwa by Myung-Jin Lee, Loki has reincarnated into a stoic assassin of Midgard.

It supposedly would be waged between the gods (the Aesir, led by Odin) and the evils (the fire giants, the Jotuns and various monsters, led by Loki).
In the Viking warrior societies, dying in battles was a fate to admire, and this was carried over into the worship of a pantheon in which the gods themselves were not everlasting, but would one day be overthrown, at Ragnarok.
Ragnarok is continually being revised and revamped, having new features added periodically.

 Megatokyo Forums -> Please. No More Anime Based Video Games   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Ragnarok Online is not "inspired", it is based (though somewhat loosely) on a Korean manhwa called "Ragnarok".
So no, Ragnarok online is not just "inspired", though one might argue that Ragnarok (the original manwha) is derived at least partially from Japanese anime/manga stylings.
Ragnarok Online thus applies to discussion here, though perhaps its status as an MMO separates it somewhat from the other games considered to this point.
