It's an okay series... I've seen a few episodes of it.











THOR CANNOT HAVE A FRIGGIN SWORD. IT'S A HAMMER DAMMIT.
WOODEN SWORD =/= THOR'S HAMMER! IT DOESN'T WORK LIKE THAT!

MJOLNIR IS A HAMMER. I AGREE WITH BURT GUMMER. CRUISE CONTROL FOR COOL.
War.

I haven't even heard of this before, but Thor with a sword both confuses and infuriates me.

MJOLNIR DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY!

It's actually semi-good. It's not full-blown Norse all over the place... but it involves the Norse gods, on a human level. Sorta like Transformers, they bring their war to our world. I haven't seen a whole lot of the series so it may not be consistantly "DO WANT".

Like Shadowdorothy said, it's a cute series... but has somewhat of a plot, so it's not just pointlessness with the lure of Norse-named characters.

It's not bad. As for the names, the japanese creators more than likely though the names sounded cool.

I really like this show... Sorry for beign a gril, but my god, are those boys gorgeous. and i do sympathize with that thing about thor and his stick, but really, is it that inconspicuous to be carring around a short-handeled hammer, rather that a broom stick, in japan of all places? Actually, i think thor should carry an umbrella, being much more conveniant. i haven't seen it in a while, so the names illude me. i love the guy with glasses the most... :]

All I know about the show comes from this topic.

Thor using something to hid Mjolnir makes sense, walking stick -> hammer is fine, Marvel's had that been his way of walking around as Donald Blake for years.  The only problem is that Mjolnir is a hammer, anything to the contrary is riddled with fail and wrong.

I haven't watched this yet, but I must agree. Thor, to be Thor, must wield a hammer named Mjolnir. For further reference please check Marvel Comics, or the film "Adventures in Babysitting"... :)

Ummmmm, you guys know Thor is a nordic god, right? Marvel didn't creat him, they borrowed him... you do know that, RIGHT?

Ga-dur.  They took Thor, and made him a super-hero.  Gaiman's Sandman took Thor, and had him hit on the Egyptian goddess of cats.  Japan took Thor, and gave him a sword.

One of these is wrong, the other two are fine.  Guess which one?

Yes, he is, but I was trying to find readily available references. It might take some digging to find older sources. Also, considering the subject of this show, I was trying for a little humor... I guess I should keep trying... :-\

Image searches on "Mjolnir" seem to return a hammer, or T-shapped, ax- or club-like weapon. I did find a cricket bat which bears the name "Mjolnir", and is similar to a "wooden sword", but 1) a cricket bat, being a bat, is a closer to being a club, 2) Only Casey Jones of TMNT, not Thor, would want to use this as a weapon.  :)

So, there you go, further proof that Thor should be wielding either a hammer or something that closely resembles one.
