Ragnarok is interesting. Premise is that a big Norwegian lad who is dyslexic and somewhere on the autism spectrum discovers he's the reincarnation of Thor. Spends part of his time puzzled why people can't see that he obviously has the job of defending his town from giants and the rest of the time just puzzled by people. The actor playing his younger brother (clearly the reincarnation of Loki) seems to be having a lot of fun.
It's done quite intelligently, with the giants sometimes trying to thwart him by having him suspended from school and placed under psychiatric supervison (well, he did throw a hammer through the school principal's windscreen) and other times in the old fashioned way with ancient weapons.
