They do make it clear that, while they do find many acts in the last 1000 years to be heinous, they're also just fed up with humanity refusing to, in their own eyes, see the error of their ways and repent despite being given 69,000 chances.

* The plot started because humanity as a whole is considered beyond salvation due to their actions in the past 1000 years. Sure the onscreen gods like [[UnreliableNarrator Aphrodite]] aren't exactly the most trustworthy types, but what if they were telling the truth? After all, humanity must have screwed up really badly if practically ''every god'' in existence, not just the malicious ones, has voted for their destruction. Considering our own history from the year 1000 to 2000...

** There's one more layer to the opposing traits between Jack the Ripper and Heracles. [[spoiler:According to Shuumatsu no Valkyrie Kitan - Jack the Ripper no Jikenbo, the Jack the Ripper who fought in Ragnarok was a nobody who took the title of Jack for the tournament. Heracles was a renowned hero. Essentially, a celebrity lost to someone forgotten by history.]]

* Qin Shi Huang doesn’t have a body crafted by the gods but found another way to harm gods. By fighting them with a style based around redirecting their own attacks back at them. Since attacks from gods are divine, any attack redirected back at them from Qin would naturally also be divine and capable of harming them.

* Qin Shi Huang's Sword Form seems like an oddity within his moveset, being the only outright weapon in an otherwise martial arts focused ability toolkit. However, swords are the only weapons that the real First King actually wielded, in particular he used a sword to protect himself from Jing Ke. And what do you know it, he defended himself with a slash to the legs, a defensive offense.

* It seems odd that the Council of ''Valhalla'' and the ''Ragnarok'' tournament is hosted by Zeus instead of you know, Odin. There are multiple reasons:
** Comparing the myths, while not exactly a high bar to clear, Odin is a less of a jerk than Zeus. Placing Zeus at the head of the council will fit the JerkassGods narrative more.
** [[Myth/ClassicalMythology Greek mythology]] is more well-known and influential than Myth/NorseMythology.
* It is implied that [[spoiler:Hercules and Buddha]] has voted to exterminate humanity alongside the other gods as the vote is noted to be ''unanimous'', which goes into conflict with their later actions. They must have played along because they realized that voting for humanity's salvation will make them stick out like sore thumbs and ''earn the ire of every god in the room'' while only revealing their true nature in the ring.

** One other factor in the fights is whether or not the god treats their opponent as a WorthyOpponent. The fights the gods won (1st,2nd, and 5th matches) were matches where the god gave their all against their opponent, finding them worthy of going all out. The matches they lost were when the god thought himself too above his opponent to bother using his full strength (Poseidon vs Sasaki Kojiro) or underestimated his opponent until it was too late (Heracles vs Jack The Ripper). Gods being gods of course normally won’t think of humans as being on the same level as them until they prove worthy, making this one other aspect humanity can take advantage of.
