Raki isn't completely irritating,he is just SOOO fake.He crys for Elena,a claymore he doesn't even know,he always cry saying wanting to protect Clare,but the one being protected is him and nw he makes friends with Priscilla(in the manga) and he is going to give Clare a really hard time.

Yes, which is why I keep wondring if Raki will stand in the way in the end or how loyal Raki will feel towards Priscilla. In the anime it will be interesting as well to see how he takes Clare fighting her. Better I would imagine than he will in the manga. Will there be tragedy in the end with Raki dying?

No worry about the the spoiler warning Holywood, I couldnt keep myself anyway! It sounds like it will be a damn good epiusode. I guess they are leaving the Jean sacrifice to the end then? Well, thats a pitty to make Jean into such an important martir in the end. It was a really nice touch in the manga, but shouldnt be the ending! Im really looking forwards to that one. Probably have to wait till tomorrow before I find it subed anywhere!

at chapter 64...if you all have noticed that while raphella is washing her face ..a girl look like teresa ...and it seems like she has been reborn to a child..and wads more a trainee now..guy i think they are going to do something abt that new teresa..making her come back :eban::lol::thumbup:

I think you have seriously mis-read the manga. I won't spoil stuff for you but just keep reading and you might understand more later.

That's not a re-incarnated Teresa. It's Teresa when she was still training to be a claymore. Go figure how "old" rafaela is :)

Anyone have a lead on a subed version of ep 24?

Nope, Eclipse is the better group that is subbing it and from what I know its not out yet. Unless you want to go for those speed sub teams that you won't make sense of the words after you have downloaded it.

I was hoping that Galatea get sent to the North War too. And maybe Rafaela so that we get to see lots of fightings till the end. Oh and how many more to go before the whole anime wraps up? 2 episodes? :(

Teresa is from the arc before Rafaella,initially I thought Teresa was going to be reborn since I read in wikipedia that Teresa met Rafaella when she was a trainee.so i thot the trainee refers to Rafaella,but it turns out Teresa was the trainee.But from that young age Teresa can already sense the yoki coming out from Rafaella,something that even Clare,who is good at sensing yoki cannot sense since Rafaella yoki is very well hidden.

If Galatea and Rafaella were sent to the north war it will be one hell of an episode, too bad it ain't happening,so far i haven't see Rafaella in action,both in manga and anime,at most she only broke her sisters back but no sword fighting.

Regarding Rippling Sword

I find the way she does her rippling sword is very hard to attack,i mean it won't be at full strength.The sord she attacks requires her to vibrate her arms at a very high speed,means moving up and down.So if she were to give a downward slash and wants to mantain the sword rippling effect,she must move,therotically 1 time up and 2 time down so her sword will move downwards,if u were to try to move an item,maybe a pen up and down to make it look like a rubber(the magic trick in which you make a pen look elastic),try to move it either downwards o upwards,it is quite hardd to maintain the elastic effect of the pen

Well, I have still not seen it. I usually get it by the Thursday from some website where I can watch over my lunch. But I am impatient :) However, I dont see how they will finish such a big thing in 2 episodes! They are going to have to make it REAL short! Nothing like the fight with Rigardo. In retrospect, they should have shortened that fight. Hoping it will be awesome though! :thumbup:

You have too much time on your hands if you have been trying to reproduce the rippling sword technique with your pen :lol: Well, I suppose the rippling will be lost during the strike, but will instantly be back as soon as the strike is finished though, so should just look like the rippling sword was moved from one place to another real quick without losing the rippling. Does that make any sense? Im not sure it does :D

I don't really get it,a little complicated=)but I found out one more extra stuff in Claymore.

Regarding symbols again.
Ep9.One of the executioners send to kill Teresa has the same symbol as Deneve.

Hmmmm,I found out that I only hate Priscilla in her awakened form,but in her human form and Claymore form I find her very pitiful.I mainly hate her awakened form because she killed Teresa Noel Aand Sophia plus she looks like a slut.I thought her hair will be longer in her awakened form since her hair has grown and I thought it will change to her original hair color brown,but apparently not.Plus Claymores will return to their normal hair colour when they awakended right but Ophelias hair is is still silver.But isn't she human in the past,why does she have elf ears

Irene has elf ear in the anime right,but during the first few appearance in the manga,she has human eas,apparently it doesn't suit her so they made her elfy.

I already discovered that in Claymore 3 thread. Very trivial though...

You have too much time on your hands if you have been trying to reproduce the rippling sword technique with your pen Well, I suppose the rippling will be lost during the strike, but will instantly be back as soon as the strike is finished though, so should just look like the rippling sword was moved from one place to another real quick without losing the rippling. Does that make any sense? Im not sure it does

I agree. The Rippling Sword' sucks in the end and is no match for Flash Sword. By the time you strike down an opponent, you have to WILL the SWORD at higher concentration because you lose some momentum upon that strike. Irene already figured that out.

at chapter 64...if you all have noticed that while raphella is washing her face ..a girl look like teresa ...and it seems like she has been reborn to a child..and wads more a trainee now..guy i think they are going to do something abt that new teresa..making her come back

Welcome urbanlegend. Unfortunately...that was a MAJOR MISREAD on your part.
The Raphaela part that you read was an event that occurred MANY YEARS AGO when Teresa was still a trainee...and a cute chibi trainee she was.

I wish!!! That would be good, but unfortunately what was shown was mearly a flash-back!

Anyone have a lead on a subed version of ep 24?

The subs get released every Wednesday. Eclipse just got lazy in the recent weeks becuase I remembered eps 1-10 were ready to be DL'd by 9 am in the morning. It's 840 am right now, so it should be ready not less than 2 pm this afternoon.

Yes, which is why I keep wondring if Raki will stand in the way in the end or how loyal Raki will feel towards Priscilla. In the anime it will be interesting as well to see how he takes Clare fighting her. Better I would imagine than he will in the manga. Will there be tragedy in the end with Raki dying?

SPOILER*********************SPOILER EP 24*****

Again, I just saw ep 24 raw last night so 'm giving a warning...

It's a wicked episode!! Pris vs Clare @ the end of the episode! And the 3 Slashers rush to her rescue. Galatea shows up and senses someone awakens BUT RUbel steps in and warns galatea DONT INTERFERE, Galatea just shrugs (screw you Rubel)...haha

Helen gets slashed though just like in the manga BUT instead of Jean "interfering", Pris awakens and becomes conscious of who she is. Clare knows Pris is around so she goes after her...

AWESOME! madhouse is picking up the pace guys. PLUS Raki FINALLY understands he's a p*ssy and can't protect Clare. He's pretty much a scared crybaby in the anime. Pathetic. Stupid Jean tells him to go with her....NOOOOOOOOO. Leave the brat alone.

claymore 24 subbed is out

Hynavian

09-13-2007, 05:24 AM

I just watched episode 24 and I find this episode great. Below are spoilers, I have cautioned you guys :p

Firstly, I like the idea that Priscilla has regained some consciousness and I like her sexy voice in the anime. It sounds much nicer than the kiddy voice that I have been hearing for the past few episodes. Her voice when she was a Claymore doesn't sound nice too. I guess her awakened voice is the "nicest" sounding to me.

Secondly, we get lesser screen time of a worthless Raki crying here. The few seconds on him, IMO, is good for his character development as it does show some close relationship between him and Clare. Too much on him crying = turn off.

Thirdly, we get to see many cuties in this episode. Cynthia and Tabitha healing others (Where's Yuma?), Galatea (OMG OMG OMG), and we see screentime for Teresa (Better than not seeing her). I especially like the part where Priscilla hallucinates and mistook Clare to be Teresa. For that moment, we get to see Teresa with yellow eyes when finishing Riagrdo.

Fourthly, this episode is filled with so much suspense as all supporting characters and main characters are there. Jeane is not dead and is bringing Raki to wherever Clare is. This 2 main characters will definitely have some importance in the last 2 episodes. I wouldnt swallow it if Jeane is to die on the spot naturally (due to excessive blood lost) after bringing Raki to Clare. And I couldn't swallow it if Raki boy just stood at the sidelines and continued to cry. Now the Big3 are rushing to the match point too and Im anticipating more actions from them. The Big3 might awaken or something just to help Clare. Who knows ya! And lastly, another supporting character would be Galatea! From this episode we know that she's somewhere near but not too far away from where the others are. Who knows when she might go renegade and help the others. As for the antagonists, Isley is surely a mean badie. Watching at the sidelines with his sidekicks while Priscilla will be battling out with Clare.

hollywoodlou

09-13-2007, 05:40 AM

...once the sub is out you don;t need the warning/spoiler tags.

1) Priscilla's voice sounding coherent is a nice change from "uh huh huh raki.." caveman language we're used to for the past 5 episodes. Good to know she;s going all out vs Clare.
And how the frag did a volcano suddenly appear in a cold place like Pieta?:D

2) it's not a turn off for me anymore because stupid Jean actually convinced the idiot to come along. No wonder I don;t like Jean! She's just pissed because she didn;t save Clare.

3) Thank you Madhouse! My sweethearts Cynthia and Tabitha have ample face time and are actually given duties by hottie Miria.

Galatea raised my grade for this episode: the best lines:

Helen: "so the oRG still keeps us under surveillance!"

Galatea: "so what If I am?'
*****

after the Slashers draw their swords vs galatea:

Galatea: "so you 3 think of perishing here, huh?"

Galatea is freakin cool.

4) I still think the volcano backgroudn is for drama. and when did Isley become a spectator? expect the 3 to block Isley (then die) so Riful and Luciela will ambush Isley afterwards...

09-13-2007, 07:13 AM

Ooooooohhh....i hate the priscilla,saying that she is suffering,that *****,she better die horribly.But it was not bad that they brought Teresa in for a few moments,even her expression when her head was slice off,I hope priscilla neck get slashes and her limps get chopped off and throw her body into the lava partially so her under will rot and she will have difficulty regenerating,than everyone will poke her with the sword at her head before slicing it off.

hollywoodlou

09-13-2007, 08:48 AM

Yup, call me blood thirsty, like I give a damn. Priscilla MUST die. if not in the anime THEN the manga. I hope she gets shredded to pieces like Rigald. Let's go Clare! Wow..I hate a character more than Raki.

pigpie

09-13-2007, 08:54 AM

SHE MUST DIE IN BOTH THE MANGA AND THE ANIME.Wow...i cannot believe i can hate a character this much,but she sucks,big time.It looks like she got cut by something in the preview,blood was flowng from her head,but I wonder if Jean will sacrifice herself or not because if so it is a little to late for a grieving period for Clare.Wonder if Riful will appear or not,she should since she is an important character.I think she will be seeing the battle at the sideline with Isley and Luciella too,maybe it will become a stadium where all will watch the battle.

09-13-2007, 01:50 PM

Finally got to watch ep.24.... and it was definetly not bad, but I thought that a lot of time was wasted! What is Madhouse thinking? They have 2 episodes left and so much to do! They better make something good with it! They could at least have given us a taster of the battle!

Good Raki finally grew some BALLS! Been waiting for that for a while! And Priscilla not being an annoying crybaby and coming to her senses was good.

I hope we get to see Isley in his awakened form next episode. I think he might stop the 3 slashers from joining in the battle. I would LOVE to see Galatea take his head, or Miria! Either one will do.

So just another 2 episodes and I am going on holiday on Saturday so will miss the next one! Will probably end up having to readh through 2 new threads by the time I get back. Though conversation seems to have slowed down a bit. Where are all the others?

So people, how will this all end? What part will each character play?

pigpie

09-13-2007, 02:30 PM

I doubt that the one that will take the head if Isley will be Galatea or Miria,I think it will end with the abbysal ones alive ,like an incomplete ending,ot maybe Alicia wil appear and slice of the head of Isley or maybe Riful,wonder where she went.

Hynavian

09-13-2007, 02:34 PM

And how the frag did a volcano suddenly appear in a cold place like Pieta?:D
Nice one Prezzo, I didn't take much note of the setting and I totally ignored the volcano. I predict the death of certain Claymores or maybe Raki as they fall into the volcano in the upcoming episode.

3) Thank you Madhouse! My sweethearts Cynthia and Tabitha have ample face time and are actually given duties by hottie Miria.
I secong your thought. The only thing that Im not that happy is that Madhouse left out Yuma and I was rotting for her. Let's give poor Yuma a chance ya.

Galatea raised my grade for this episode......[deleted the many words here]......Galatea is freakin cool.
That's definite! I'm now worshipping her totally. She'll reach enlightenment if she joins in the matches in the upcoming epsiodes and start kicking all the antagonists around.

4) I still think the volcano backgroudn is for drama. and when did Isley become a spectator? expect the 3 to block Isley (then die) so Riful and Luciela will ambush Isley afterwards...
Is this your anticipated ending? It does seem feasible to me. I'll give it a try to....

Clare and Priscilla battle it out while the Big3 (Miria,Helen,Deneve) rushed to the location and aid Clare against Priscilla. Just when Priscilla is about to get killed, Isley steps in with his side-kicks to aid Priscilla. I figured maybe the Big3 might make use of their full half-awakened powers or mybe join Clare in the semi-awakened mode as they're over-powered by Isley and gang. Some surprises like Galatea and Jeane joining the fight might happen so as to beef up the fight. Elsewhere Riful engaged with Luciela instead. Winner will be Luciela but Rafaela will finish her off after the battle.

I guess it willl end with antagonists being eliminated, Jeane dying, Clare dying, Big3 dying, Galatea dying and the story being told from the point of view of Raki. (The most useless character whom none would kill)

**********
Wonder if Riful will appear or not,she should since she is an important character.I think she will be seeing the battle at the sideline with Isley and Luciella too,maybe it will become a stadium where all will watch the battle.
Oh come to think of it, it does looks like some pokemon stadium match right? Isley and the gang standing around the volcano like stadium while Priscilla and Clare battle it out. Who knows, your predictions might come true and Luciela and Riful come to watch the match.

**********
Good Raki finally grew some BALLS! Been waiting for that for a while! And Priscilla not being an annoying crybaby and coming to her senses was good.
Thats the reasons why I love this episode too. Priscilla's voice is sexier and Raki did not cry as much. (was it due to his screen time)

So just another 2 episodes and I am going on holiday on Saturday so will miss the next one! Will probably end up having to readh through 2 new threads by the time I get back. Though conversation seems to have slowed down a bit. Where are all the others?
Ah you're heading for a holiday this saturday? Have fun! We'll still be around to reply to your comments even if they're on the past episode. Captain has gone missing for some time I guess. Maybe due to his schoolwork. Oh and asanta and dark, they're missing.

So people, how will this all end? What part will each character play?
Let's leave this question after next week's Claymore is being aired! Makes it more fun.

By the way, it's Miria's banner and signature week next right?
Any objections? :devil:

Enjoy your vacation, buddy.

Nice one Prezzo, I didn't take much note of the setting and I totally ignored the volcano. I predict the death of certain Claymores or maybe Raki as they fall into the volcano in the upcoming episode.

The volcano represents a hellish demise for ANY of the characters, so it really is up in the air who gets to jump into the volcano. My $ is on Raki, but Jean with her stomach hole is first to go.

secong your thought. The only thing that Im not that happy is that Madhouse left out Yuma and I was rotting for her. Let's give poor Yuma a chance ya.

Yuma is unjured remember? Nice to know Miria trusts my girls Cynthia and Tabitha to take care of the rest. Tabitha is # 31 and a big jump on duties and trust based on her rankings.
Cynthia can be my nurse anytime.

That's definite! I'm now worshipping her totally. She'll reach enlightenment if she joins in the matches in the upcoming epsiodes and start kicking all the antagonists around.

Galatea was a surprise for me and a very good one! Just so you guys notice when the Slashers raised their swords, Galatea FLINCHED and the 3 JUMPED. The 3 knew Gal was going to clean their clock...

the best quote of the episode:

Helen: "so we're still under surveillance by the ORG?"

Galatea: "AND IF I AM?"

I just acessed the Claymore SOURCEBOOK and Galatea is actually 6'1''...VERY TALL.

and yes, I have now become a Galatea super fan due to the anime.

Thats the reasons why I love this episode too. Priscilla's voice is sexier and Raki did not cry as much. (was it due to his screen time)

Priscilla is now a coherent person to understand and clearcut that she's going all out. A better angle than the manga which is kinda dragging BUT I give madhouse props on speeding up the process.

MacenKrace

09-13-2007, 06:37 PM

So people, how will this all end? What part will each character play?
Well I can only think of a BIG surprise for all of them...
Most likely: Clare goes with Raki; Priscilla dies; Isley lives; Jane goes to the big fluffy place above and the others will most likely disappear.

:thumbup:

The volcano represents a hellish demise for ANY of the characters, so it really is up in the air who gets to jump into the volcano. My $ is on Raki, but Jean with her stomach hole is first to go.
I think a cool ending will be where an almost dead Priscilla falls slow motion into the volcano and where she reflects on all her wrong misdeeds. It will sort of like redeem her.

But if I'm to bet my $ on who will accidentally fall into the volcano, it will definitely be Raki.

I just acessed the Claymore SOURCEBOOK and Galatea is actually 6'1''...VERY TALL.

and yes, I have now become a Galatea super fan due to the anime.

What!!! 6'1" That's so tall.
Prezzo, welcome to the "Support Galatea Club"
I wonder whether Galatea will be able to settle down normally with humans after she had left the organisation. If she's to settle in town, she has to interact with others and I don't see how it is possible as humans shun Claymores right?

Maybe Galatea found someone she loved and settled down with him in the town. lol...I must be dreaming again.

You are assuming that the claymore sensed by Clarice and her baby is Galatea. Personnally I don't think she would have settled in a town. But then again, I don't know who else it would be. However, it would have been a bit early for them to find her, I think we might be in for a surprise. BUT ITS SO DIFFICULT TO WAIT TILL NOVEMBER!!! I have read the manga so many times now and watched the anime... its so FRSUTRATING!!!

I still can't believe she is 6'1 though! thats huge! No wonder the others flinched when she reached for her sword. She is AWESOME! We should have a Galatea week soon as well! Come on all you people gifted for making banners! Make us a nice Galatea one!!!

Oh Im hoping that Clarice and Miata will find Galatea soon BUT not get her killed or anything. If they can find her, Galatea will get more "page time" in the manga (Is that the correct word? lol)

Ah yes its definitely frustrating and november seems to be a long way. But you can always re-read the manga again. And we can re-discuss those closed topics again O_o

I hope so! would be good to see her do some more a** kicking!! I wonder what would happen between Miata and Galatea if they were to fight. Since Miata relies on non-yoga powers and other instincts Galatea can't read her or manipulate her. She would have to do it the hard way.... WOuld be a tough fight!!! They are only one rank different and they said that Miata would have been higher ranked if it wasnt for the fact that she is f***ing NUTS

No she wont fall into the volcano, or highly unlikely. Then there wont be a villain for season 2, so either Jean or Raki will be the candidates as Claymore ashtrays.

There has not been a recorded instance where Claymores reverted back to human form. Even Miria is disgusted with her body (not me Miria..I love ya! You're hot!). Because Claymore is a tragedy, their happiness is not exactly on Yagi-san's future. BUT being a romantic doofus myself, maybe Deneve needs a BF to get over her frosty disposition.

Tell me about it...I've read the book so many times I'm reading the Claymore sourcebook now to get my facts straight. The 6'1'' height of Galatea was one of the fascinating facts I found in the book. Its available in winzip if anybody's interested...

IF anyone wants a Miria or Galatea sig/avatar for the coming weeks, ask me and I can provide you one if You don't have any...BUt you'd better NOT complain or i"ll demote you to janitor like prezzy.:lol:

I hope so! would be good to see her do some more a** kicking!! I wonder what would happen between Miata and Galatea if they were to fight. Since Miata relies on non-yoga powers and other instincts Galatea can't read her or manipulate her. She would have to do it the hard way.... WOuld be a tough fight!!! They are only one rank different and they said that Miata would have been higher ranked if it wasnt for the fact that she is f***ing NUTS

It's going to be a HAIR fight. I;ve always been a sucker for dames with long flowing hair. Miata's hair is all over the place while Galatea's flows like the wind..and she's taller. What a fight.

As usual, very informative thread. (<3 you guys)

No she wont fall into the volcano, or highly unlikely. Then there wont be a villain for season 2
Why the sudden change of mind Holywoodlou? From what I remember back in the older threads, you were saying that there will be no season 2. Unless of course my memory fails me which I highly doubt.

Im not sure about Prezzo but for me, I snapshot pictures from the Claymore raws and then edit them. I usually cut off those ugly parts that I do not like, add in some fanciful words etc.

Prezzo, for your earlier post of the few claymores that sacrified in claymore. How did you cut out those moving clips and post it as a picture? :( I want to learn how to do that too.

So far, we have not heard of any season 2 news from Madhouse. (No season 2, so sad) Hence, we're all keeping our eyes out for the ending for the anime too as it might be something that is totally different from the manga. Well....there's always the manga after that.

I did say that there wont be a season 2...BECAUSE THERE IS NO MATERIAL FOR IT . I know what I said.
If there was 3 years worth of manga material,...which starts ALL OVER AGAIN on November 2...THEN there is a possibility of season 2. I never said there will NEVER be a season 2.

I think you might not be far from the truth. Sounds like a good guess to me. In any case, the state Jean is in she is not going to survive the manga so it is sure she will sacrifice herself. Raki will either save Clare or convince Priscilla to do something. However, I hope it wont end with Priscilla remembering what she has turned into and in grief throws herself in the volcano. That would just suck! But lets get some battle time with Isley!!!

I was all along hoping that season 1 of the anime will be faithful to the Claymore manga. However, with such drastic changes in the later episodes, I think a coherent season 2 is not possible. Madhouse can go ahead and make another season that is totally not in tune with the manga but do you all want to see it?

I'll be willing to watch it if Madhouse get good authors (cause I think the mangaka will be busy with his manga and won't help them) who can come out with a decent plot. I would not want to watch a season 2 that is totally down the drain <===== thus ruining the name and the great standard of the Claymore original manga.

Hynavian

09-14-2007, 03:57 PM

I highly doubt they will have a season 2.
Eveb if they do it will require new characters since the manga is following Clares storyline.Even if they were to switch character to maybe Clarice,everything in the story will change,from Riful trying to find Comrades to fefeat Isley and Priscilla(Since Priscilla is about to meet her demise in this season,or thats what i hope) to the fact that the survivors of the northern war playing a major role in the series anymore.

NOooooooooo..........making a loser the main character for season 2 is the 1st way to kill the whole Claymore series! Claymore season 2 will then change it's name to:

"Claymore: The Surviving Losers"

Maybe Raki might be brought forward from season 1 and he will meet up with Clarice. So we'll have undefeatable loser characters in Claymore: The Surviving Losers.

I think that they will now focus on the manga.I don't mind if they do a few hundred chapters in the manga,it will be very fun,and also a bit slow and draggy,but I don't mind them introducing more new Claymores.

The manga will definitely hit 100 over chapters. Its half way there now and its already 73 chapters. A complete series will get it to 146 chapters (the very least). And who knows, there might be extra scenes here and there in the future?

I like the idea of new claymore characters. We get to know Audrey and Ray (interesting characters) and Im hoping for some other better quality characters that have the attitude of Galatea and the air of Flora (Nice way of describing them right).

Its quite amazing that Alicia and Beth can retain their no1 and 2 post for 2 consecutive arc,i mean they will change every 7 years,does that mean a Claymore can only live an avarage of 7 years or fight for 7 years before they awaken because most of the claymores change every 7 years,with exception of the black ones and rafaella who hardly uses her power

Hey prezzo and 1MMCM members, did the manga ever mention that the organisation made new Claymores once ever 7 years? Please direct me to the volumes or chapters. Thanks.

I notice that the armour on pricilla looks like those on Jean,they have the same patter,so i am thinking that Jean is like Pricsilla,she fights like normal Claymore with the exception of the wings that allow her to fly once awaken.Maybe she will be in cinstant flight since her legs are ummm,looks unusable with her extra stuff hanging from her tail

Jeane.....I was so sad that she's gone. If only she was one of the remaining 7. Yuma for Jeane (Great idea yes? No?)

I get a feeling that they want to end this show quickly and unjustily. The claymore anime is clearly hitting the ball out of the park from the manga now. But will it hit a home run in the end? Or will it just be a foal ball? Thats what i like to find out later on.

Am I the only one who's totally pissed at the Claymore Anime?

It looks like they totally threw away the manga. They skipped Clare's four-limb awakening, changed Raki's destiny, and threw in the Priscilla fight early. They're totally losing it, it looks like the Anime is going to go bankrupt (why else would they end the series?).

No you're not the only one who's pissed. BUT instead of throwing a hissy fit EVERY WEEK like I did, it dawned on me that nothing will happen anyways and just accept reality.

Instead of bitching about stuff, I looked at the good parts: Helen's dramatic scenes with Clare was spot on manga perfect and Galatea's appearance made me smile, while "liitle" threatening the Slashers...and more of that sissy Raki crying.

Hey prezzo and 1MMCM members, did the manga ever mention that the organisation made new Claymores once ever 7 years? Please direct me to the volumes or chapters. Thanks.

There's no SPECIFIC mention of it. For the long term health of the series, new characters like Miata and Clarice ARE NEEDED to ensure the longevity and quality of the product.

Jeane.....I was so sad that she's gone. If only she was one of the remaining 7. Yuma for Jeane (Great idea yes? No?)

Not me. Jean sucks big time. She's a creepy stalker and obsessed w
Clare...just like Raki. Besides, her drill technique only works well in group settings. I doubt her yoma/AB opponent will read a newspaper and smoke a cigarette while she twists to 21.

Neh don't mistaken I have no ill intentions when I asked that. I was seriously considering putting my profile for my signature but I have no idea how to go about doing it. Hence, I asked

Yoo Jammerjoint,I'm not really happy with the anime for the past few episodes due to many reasons:

1. There's an episode where the cameos switched back and forth from the fighting scenes and to raki and vice versa. That was totally annoying for me.

2. Whenever Raki get any screen time, he's crying non-stop. If I would like to watch a crying baby, I could take up some other anime instead.

3. Riagrdo shot out some Dragonball styled attack at Clare which would never happen in the Claymore manga.

4. A crying Priscilla who is not coherent totally irritates me to a large extent.

But all ends well now as there's progress and action in the plot. I know its tough to create an original ending, hence, I give Madhouse some credit. They, at least, gave other Claymores whom I like (Galatea, Cynthia, Tabitha, Jeane) more screen time and portrayed a sexy Flora and awakened Priscilla.

From what I think Yuma is also a stalker since she's following Clare everywhere under the orders of Miria and Daneve. Since Clare is being stalked anyway, its better to have a more powerful stalker right? No? ^_____^

Come on Prezzo, Jeane is not that bad. She was pretty sweet in the last episode as she tried to convince a sissy Raki to be a man. She bothered to chat with that sissy and even wanted to help Clare though she's nearing death.

Yeah right, where's the "location" on your profile eh. prezzy? lead by example...:p

If there was a season 2 for Claymore,i wouldn't mind if they did an alternate storyline in which Teresa didn't die and Priscilla was beheaded by Teresa when Priscilla was begging to be beheaded.After which the organization will chase after Teresa and Clare

That wouldn't be a good idea. They don't have the budget and it's like totally revamping a house that's 2 weeks away from complete construction BUT I admire the thought though. Whenever the manga followers access their memories, the anime version gets in the way now and confuses people. Another version would be chaotic.

1. There's an episode where the cameos switched back and forth from the fighting scenes and to raki and vice versa. That was totally annoying for me.

2. Whenever Raki get any screen time, he's crying non-stop. If I would like to watch a crying baby, I could take up some other anime instead.

3. Riagrdo shot out some Dragonball styled attack at Clare which would never happen in the Claymore manga.

4. A crying Priscilla who is not coherent totally irritates me to a large extent.

1) There WERE episodes and to be honest, they were eps 20-22, the "Invasion of Raki...I mean Pieta" episodes. What MH should have done is copied episode 19. Pure action for 18 minutes, then stick Raki at the backside for the entire 4 minutes so no interruptions. Instead we get Raki heroic flashbacks and that's why fans were PO'd.

2) He wasn't crying all the time. He had more face time in eps 20-22 than the action itself, and he was portratyed "heroically" unlik the manga where he was a dunderhead.

3) Doesn't matter, so he has more stuff in his arsenal.

4) Yes, in a way. I'm more comfy with the spaced-out noob manga Priscilla.

From what I think Yuma is also a stalker since she's following Clare everywhere under the orders of Miria and Daneve. Since Clare is being stalked anyway, its better to have a more powerful stalker right? No? ^_____^

Yuma wasn't stalking Clare out of payment for Clare saving Jean's life but she was FOLLOWING..NOT stalking Clare @ Pieta. Major diff.

You know what? I counted how many times Jean said "Claare--ack"(spitting blood) and it was 3x...that's 3x more than Raki. I think those 2 eloped together and left the others to die.:lol:

Jean: "Forgive me, Raki. I have a hole in my stomach, but I am kinda cute, right."
Raki:"Clare doesn't give me the time of day, and I;m a coward. I pissed my pants this afternoon. So....you're into "drilling" huh?";)

hello i believe that raki isnt with isley and pricillia, because if you read the manga carefully you will that before clare decides to go south she is search towns in the north with yuma tagging along. so therefore she found proof of raki existence in a dungeon in one of the towns so that leads me to believe that he was somehow separate from isley and his *****. so i dont think he was with them for the whole 7 year period.

Thats the trace when raki was imprisoned by slave trader and that was before he meet with priscilla and isley.

Btw isn't the town clarice and miata saw in the end of manga is Rabona? the cathedral is very simplier in the middle and the houese and wall around it seens the same, althrought i cannot see the colour, if its rabona, galatea can be hiding there and maybe clare's group, will appear shortly trying to find raki.

oh and would like to know how you guys got those cool banners

We made the banners and we're featuring different characters weekly. The members of this thread vote the characters.

*******************

Nice try. Once prezzo makes up his mind, prezzo sticks with it. But for your efforts, I made you a Jean avatar. next thing Jean will do @ the volcano, is give Clare a back massage.;)

I at least get a motion avatar on Jeane. Ok that is not so bad after all. Im hoping that Jeane will die a death that is worthy of her in the upcoming few episodes. It would be a total disappointment if she died due to excessive lost of blood after walking all the way to the volcano summit with Raki.

Maybe Raki should show his manly powers by carrying or helping Jeane all the way to the summit.

BTW ...came up with a sig for a "future" cutie of mine...(No, it's not Yuma)

I know...the colors suck, just experimenting...

Nice one Prezzo, just twitch the colour abit and you're there. You have to make sure that she get voted as one of the feature character soon or you won't get the chance to use that banner ya? I guess, others might beat the sweeties to it. Maybe Riful or Teresa :p

Good luck then prezzy. Well, I'll stick in my Miria sig within the next 36 hours so technically, you first...:cool:

I'll change it either at midnight (my time) or tomorrow morning. I want to give the newly made Clare banner more exposure time as I just uploaded it yesterday. Was randomly sizing the photo and I found it cool....wala! Became my Clare banner for a day.

******************

Do you have any proof of this?

Volume 10, The North War VI.
We see a Raki in a ruined town somewhere in the North. He later "saved" Priscilla from a stone ceiling that fell. Raki then joined Priscilla and Isley as Prisiclla took a liking to him.

We can assume that Raki was taken by slave traders and was held captive under-ground. It was that reason that prevented him from getting killed by whatever that had attacked the town earlier. He escaped and found the antagonists. That is a way to explain the Clare-Teresa drawing that was found underground in the later chapters.

Unless im blind or missed a whole chapter, didn't the manga end for now with Clarice saying "...Galateas head."? Where did you see them near a town?

You're blind.
And hey you don't need to be so mean to others ya.

We're at chapter 73 now and it ended off with both Clarice and Miata staring at a town. We're not sure what town that is but it's definitely a town no matter from which angle I look at it from.

Thats the trace when raki was imprisoned by slave trader and that was before he meet with priscilla and isley.

Btw isn't the town clarice and miata saw in the end of manga is Rabona? the cathedral is very simplier in the middle and the houese and wall around it seens the same, althrought i cannot see the colour, if its rabona, galatea can be hiding there and maybe clare's group, will appear shortly trying to find raki.

hey its me illusion again so my theory if raki not been with isley is correct and i think raki might change during these many years perhaps into cool swordsman

that is a good theory, but i dont think is possible for him to have meet with isley and priscillia, because what if the attacking creatures were those awaken beings that souppose to have kill clare and the others in the north and wasnt isley with priscillia when he headed north to fight the abyssal one there. :eban:

Raki DID met Isley and Priscilla in the manga and he even learn how to use the sword from Isley. Isley was king of North so it doesn't make sense for him to head North again (when he was there) and to fight himself and to hand the title of king to someone else (hand it to who? Priscilla? the 24 claymores there?)

I think I get what illusion is saying...

imaster, the proof of "dungeon escape' that Clare found happened 7 years PREVIOUSLY...NOT 7 YEARS AFTER PIETA!

That's why Raki was able to first meet Pris and Is in the northen lands..HE ESCAPED from that dungeon. What Clare found was evidence that indeed Raki was being held @ the northen lands as per Rubel's explanation...and that's why Clare went to Pieta as part of the 24 Claymores.

I at least get a motion avatar on Jeane. Ok that is not so bad after all. Im hoping that Jeane will die a death that is worthy of her in the upcoming few episodes. It would be a total disappointment if she died due to excessive lost of blood after walking all the way to the volcano summit with Raki.

lol, jean was spitting blood left and right...normally she should've been dead last episode. I still think it's funny that those 2 decided to elope together and leave everybody to die.

Cynthia was in it for 3 seconds from 1100-1113, and Miria was in the scenes as well..cant capture the scene to turn it into a sig. But Tabitha was in it A LOT...she 's mostly beside Miria. She's freakin cute too.

Unless im blind or missed a whole chapter, didn't the manga end for now with Clarice saying "...Galateas head."? Where did you see them near a town?

Actually...Miata's last words were :"the smell of a very strong Claymore."

Miata DID NOT SAY GALATEA SPECIFICALLY...and that's what Claymore manga fans have been waiting for the past 5 months...is it really Galatea or SOMEBODY ELSE?

DEAD WRONG. I've been reading the Japanese Claymore shounen since 2005 and they've always been monthly since 2001. It won't change and never will.

And just asking, where did you get this info that it's released BI-monthly?

sooo....i reaallly like claymore manga and anime, and yet i do not know what 1MMCM is....all i know is that hynavian and hollywoodlou are part of "it"? anyone please explain?

and i reaaallly hope that after a 5 month wait that the claymore in the city wont turn out to be some kinda false alarm...now that would suck...

1MMCM stands for 1 Manga Mafia Claymore Movement, and the original founders were me (Hollywoodlou), Hynavian, Chezkimo and Darthalvarez. But the 2 co -presidents of the forum are me...and Hynavian. Chezkimo is the forum captain. Nhy390 joined later, so did pigpie in Claymore thread # 2.

The last 5 threads (or 120 pages) were mostly due to the 6 of us initially and we racked up the threads quickly approaching Ichigo. Ichigo has more than 15 regular posters while Claymore has 5 regular posters including myself.
*****

...and waiting for 5 months isnt all that bad. Yagi-sensei has already confirmed that Claymore will ONLY reach VOLUME 25. So that means we are looking at close to 50+ chapters left.
And don;t compare that overrated train wreck called Berserk to Claymore...it's like comparing a toilet to a throne.

Yup, nhy voted for Galatea the week after Miria.

lol, jean was spitting blood left and right...normally she should've been dead last episode. I still think it's funny that those 2 decided to elope together and leave everybody to die.

I was shocked too. Prezzo you should see the amount of blood there is on the floor that she was lying. I think if scientifically, that should be around all the blood that is left of a human. Maybe she used her Yoki powers to summon more blood to replenish herself.

I'm wondering why don't she try that trick where she turned into her butterfly form and revert back to a human again. We have seen Deneve doing that to her stomach wound. Oh but Jeane is an offensive warrior ya......hmmmm.....

Cynthia was in it for 3 seconds from 1100-1113, and Miria was in the scenes as well..cant capture the scene to turn it into a sig. But Tabitha was in it A LOT...she 's mostly beside Miria. She's freakin cute too.

That would be great! Maybe the 2 human guards might befriend Galatea and hide her somewhere in the monastery. That human guard has something for Claymores from how I view it in the manga, since he's willing to kiss Clare. A beauty like Galatea should not be ignored :D Eh wait, won't Galatea butcher him alive if he tried anything funny! :eek:

Well if miata and clarice find Galatea in that city, it cause big destruction with some casualties. Former city is about to be destroyed in few min heh, since miata is bakemono( she thinks clarice is her mother for exemple)

Let me remind you all that in Fit to Fight, before Raphaela kills Irene, Irene says "Why did one as powerful as yourself barely stopped at #5?"

conclusion => that claymore must be Raphaela... (Galatea is not even near her power)

beakedbard

09-17-2007, 08:23 AM

Also the fact that Raphaelas been around since before Teresa if you remember from the first extra chapter so she musty be bloody strong even managing to surpress her youma powers for that long.

I appreciate your "passionate" campaign for Raphaela but she's weak.
Now that we're into quotes, here's one for you:

"The little sister who kept the spirit this time, Raphaela's heart was too weak."
The real katakana version spells out: "The younger sister was too weak to carry the older sister's spirit." Of course, we are talking about Luciela scene 64.

She may be the most senior but compared to # 3 Galatea who served as the # 1 "eye" of the ORG ...and...control/manipulate any opponent's yoki, Raphy will have her hands full.

*****

You are 1/4 correct that it COULD be Raphy that Miata sensed in scene 73. BUT it could be ANY OF THESE:

1) Galatea
2) Irene
3) Raphaela
4) a new Claymore member we've never heard of...

It is narrow minded to confidently say Raphy is the one Claymore out of the 4, because every hard core fan like myself who's followed the manga since 2005 knows that's it's ANYBODY'S GUESS. That's why readers have to wait til November. No one knows for sure BUT you are free to guesstimate...

Also the fact that Raphaelas been around since before Teresa if you remember from the first extra chapter so she musty be bloody strong even managing to surpress her youma powers for that long.

Just because you're the OLDEST doesn't necessarily mean you're the STRONGEST. Claymore Priscilla caught up to Teresa yoki-wise but Teresa's experience paid off in the end...and Pris was WAY younger than Teresa.
Claymores aren't vampires...

Well if miata and clarice find Galatea in that city, it cause big destruction with some casualties. Former city is about to be destroyed in few min heh, since miata is bakemono( she thinks clarice is her mother for exemple)

Now you're talking...that's IF it's galatea...

Either way or whomever it is, it's a rumble with Miata that I want to witness...we all are awaiting which Claymore...or "yoma" she's going to encounter.

My 6th sense (different from Miata's 6th sense) tells me that they'll be voted as the featured character soon and I should go snap more pictures of them just in case

What is she, Dracula?:lol: With the amount of blood she lost, even Claymores should be dead...or awakened at that point.

I'm wondering why don't she try that trick where she turned into her butterfly form and revert back to a human again. We have seen Deneve doing that to her stomach wound. Oh but Jeane is an offensive warrior ya......hmmmm.....

Jean sword technique sucks, so does her lame butterfly form. I kinda dig her everytime she said :"C-clare...ack" in ep 24.

I agreed with hollywoodlou(Prezzo) on this. Prezzo I have other options that you can add into your list. Check it out below:

1) Galatea
2) Irene
3) Raphaela
4) a new Claymore member we've never heard of...
5) Raki if he ever becomes one...
6) Any of the big 7 (Miria, Clare, Deneve, Helen, Cynthia, Tabitha, Yuma <-- is she string enough to be considered strong by Miata?) who's in town doing shopping...

************************************************** *

Also the fact that Raphaelas been around since before Teresa if you remember from the first extra chapter so she musty be bloody strong even managing to surpress her youma powers for that long.

Being able to suppress Yoki for very long only shows that she's great at suppressing it. But since we have not since Rafaela in action yet, we can't judge how power she is. But I reckon that her number 2 position is not for show and she should have the potential to beat Miata up.

No prezzo....don't say that about Jeane. Her butterfly form is real beautiful to look at you know. Jeane's a loyal friend who don't like to own people anything. Ok, she's slightly stalking Clare but that's the only bad point.

Irene should be dead (not certain, but still there are low chances she is alive) and the reason I say it should be Raphaela (comparison between Alicia , Beth and Raphaela, Luciela) could have been the organization's #2 as Beth. As for a claymore we never heard of... I doubt the organization wouldn't have already dispatched it since it was so powerful.

For my option 6, I mentioned "any" of the Big7 (singular). So any of the seven might be a possibility.

PS: If the "strong claymore" that Miata senses is Yuma (lol), it would prove that her 6th sense is worthless and she would end up in the same category with Clarice -----> The "useless" category, along with other claymores like Audrey and Rachel.

I'm thinking since the organization is abit nutty, they might make male claymores. Who knows right? And Raki can becoem a Claymore through other means if Isley knows how to make one. (Assuming that he spent all his free time who knows how many years trying to figure out how to make a Claymore)

But I agree with you that we might only get an answer after November. The upcoming issue might not be even on Miata or Clarice.

Anyways the next issue should be as interesting as the others.

But still... the creation of a male claymore?... unlikely since either he has already awaken or he could be working for the organization.

Btw I believe Miata will awaken and have to be chopped to pieces.

09-17-2007, 10:19 PM

What do you mean? Im confused.

Raki DID met Isley and Priscilla in the manga and he even learn how to use the sword from Isley. Isley was king of North so it doesn't make sense for him to head North again (when he was there) and to fight himself and to hand the title of king to someone else (hand it to who? Priscilla? the 24 claymores there?)

By the way, nice to meet you.

what i meant is that raki didnt see isley after he left the dungeon not when he was training with him.
if you have any question about this contact me at grincon@look.ca and send your email adress so i can answer back and good day to you!!

There is no doubt in the manga that as soon as Raki left the dungeon, the manga portray Raki on a ruined city and he his first encounter was definately Priscilla, then isley, as there should be no survivor near town, Illusion i think you missed a few chapter of the manga.

Anyways the next issue should be as interesting as the others.

But still... the creation of a male claymore?... unlikely since either he has already awaken or he could be working for the organization.

Btw I believe Miata will awaken and have to be chopped to pieces.

I think its sightly possible that there will man claymore, as the organisation have lost most of there claymores, its nessecary they need tranees asap and maybe talented man claymore to fight priscilla, they could always develop new experiment to keep man claymore liveline possible and it will be interesting to see something new like see Raki as a claymore. Maybe not all claymore would awaken, seems like the founders and the watchers in the organisation could once were claymores.

Ah really sux if Miata awakens, poor little girl.

There may be a possibility in the future that male Claymores might be resurrected. The ORg already experimented with sisters (lucy and raphy) THEN twins (Alicia and Beth), so they might come full circle and go back to correcting their mistakes.
Raki would be a great guinea pig to start off with. If they screw up, he dies, I;m happy. BUT because he has an integral role in the series, that wouldn't happen.
I would prefer they keep Raki human. we don't have ANY human character worth cheering for aside from Raki, so it's best to keep him human and add some new human characters into the mix.

Btw I believe Miata will awaken and have to be chopped to pieces.

Miata will only awaken if "mommy' gets into deep trouble (fatally wounded). Until that time, she has a good amount of face time ahead of her.

And don;t compare that overrated train wreck called Berserk to Claymore...it's like comparing a toilet to a throne.

true, but remember which one ur gonna spend more of ur life using...:lol:

btw- i get what ur saying by having more human characters, but no matter how u look at it, raki will ALWAYS be a hinderance if he's human...humans just cant compare...

Well, that's a myth. You only use the toilet a fraction of the time, and if you use it MORE time than often, you must be living in a seniors home.:p

btw- i get what ur saying by having more human characters, but no matter how u look at it, raki will ALWAYS be a hinderance if he's human...humans just cant compare...

That's the beauty of it. IF Raki becomes a Claymore, which human character do we have in the meantime? Humans in the Claymore world are inferior species: food to yomas to be exact. That would be boring if everyone in the series was a Claymore. It's best to have some characters have major weaknesses and let them find their true strengths in themselves. Humans fit the bill perfectly.

Now this is Raki...

IF Raki becomes a Claymore with the Claymore suit, he would look like this:

Now if you really want some human characters to root for (assuming that Raki has become a Claymore), we can root for Clarice then. She's a failed experiment. failed experiment = no Claymore, so it's = to human? (Now you know why I have trouble with Mathematics in school)

Miata will only awaken if "mommy' gets into deep trouble (fatally wounded). Until that time, she has a good amount of face time ahead of her.

Another possibility would be where Clarice orders Miata to awaken! Anyway, I do not hope to see Miata awaken as I think she's happier with Clarice now and kids should stay kids. It's pretty cruel of the organisation to send Miata on missions.

Awakened kid --> Riful --> Abyssal one = no good for the Claymore society.

By the way, we're all used to a useless Raki. Hence, it won't matter if he continues to be useless in the upcoming few manga chapters. A chance would be good though........:o

what i meant is that raki didnt see isley after he left the dungeon not when he was training with him.
if you have any question about this contact me at grincon@look.ca and send your email adress so i can answer back and good day to you!!

Hi illusionmaster.

Let's discuss this matter over in the forums instead. That is what the forum is for right? :) From what I have interpreted from your below few posts and the above posts, your stand is that Raki has not met Priscilla and Isley when he was in the North? Please let me know if I have mis-read your stand.

Below are your previous few posts, I just quoted them in this post of mine.hey its me illusion again so my theory if raki not been with isley is correct and i think raki might change during these many years perhaps into cool swordsman

that is a good theory, but i dont think is possible for him to have meet with isley and priscillia, because what if the attacking creatures were those awaken beings that souppose to have kill clare and the others in the north and wasnt isley with priscillia when he headed north to fight the abyssal one there. :eban:

hello i believe that raki isnt with isley and pricillia, because if you read the manga carefully you will that before clare decides to go south she is search towns in the north with yuma tagging along. so therefore she found proof of raki existence in a dungeon in one of the towns so that leads me to believe that he was somehow separate from isley and his *****. so i dont think he was with them for the whole 7 year period.
:eban::thumbup:

oh and would like to know how you guys got those cool banners

anyway here besides me

oh well i feel lonely here

*************************************************

I would like to ask you some questions instead:

1. Have you read till chapter 73? The latest chapter is 73 for now and sometimes we miss out a chapter here and there so maybe we must go back to re-read at times.

2. Check out chapter 50 - The war in the North I. You're aware that Jeane and Clare met Rubel and Rafaela before the 7 years gap right? It was here where Rubel told Clare that Raki got captured and was sent off to the North.

Chapter 50, The War in the North I, Page 142
Rubel: "That boy who was tagging along with you..."
"Looks like he was captured by slave traders and carted off to the North."

3. Check out chapter 50- chapter 55. You are aware that Clare did head to the town Pieta in the North and was fighting a war there right? You do see the aftermath where Flora pitted her Wind Cutter against Clare's Quick Sword in chapter 55 pages 119-123 right?

4. Now let,s move on. Chapter 55, The War in the North 6, page 124. You do see a Raki in a town where the surroundings are in ruins right?

5. Move on to page 125. Raki said:
Raki: "What on Earth happened, while I was being held in that dungeon..."
And then you see an "unknown" girl wondering around nearby right?

6. Page 126, you see Raki becoming a hero as he saved that "unknown" girl right? Hero Raki saving a girl took up half of page 126. You didn't miss it right?

7. Page 128, you see a guy walking up to both Raki and the unknown girl right?

Main Point: You do realise that the "unknown" girl is Priscilla and that guy is Isley right? Maybe you will doubt the identity of that "unknown" girl. So maybe turn to page 130. You'll see the guy (Isley) calling that girl "Priscilla".

8. And finally, you do notice that Chapter 65 (Joined by Souls I) onwards occured 7 years after the North War right?

Do let me know if you disagree with me at any point. Enjoy your day too.

how would raki become a claymore???

anywho, i think we all like raki as a human character. unlike the claymores he has qualities of human, which i personally like. thats the same with Clare and Clarice to some extent.

I think its cool for Raki to persevere even though we/he knows the difficulty of standing against the claymores and yomas.

"Becoming powerful isn't all that easy. Once you have power you can loose it again as well. And above all else you MIGHT EVEN NEED to sacrifice your own life for that power."

This is from chapter 56 page 142, Isley's words. I think he intends to make Raki a claymore or perhaps even more... a awakened being.
What do you think?

Awakened kid --> Riful --> Abyssal one = no good for the Claymore society.

OK...before I answer this, I thought I;ve heard every ridiculous/"maybe" acceptable angle about Claymore, but one 1 forum I'm a member of (wont even mention the site), one poster actually argued that ...

CLARICE is actually RAKI.

You can all start laughing now..or stop.:lol: But he argued that 1) he or "she" is a failed experiment 2) Clarice has "dark hair" and 3) whenever Miata sucked her ****, there was no "scar" between the breasts.

Of course everyone of us pounced on this nonsense, and he probably left the forum put of embarassment, but just to let you know, there are possibilities out there. Just a sidestory to amuse you people...;)

******

Ok going back to prezzy's comments:

I agree..Miata's just a kid and labour laws in the Claymore world don't exist. The ORG even takes pubescent orphans and twin babies for their own agenda, so it's a positive that Miata has someone to look up to.

Now if you really want some human characters to root for (assuming that Raki has become a Claymore), we can root for Clarice then. She's a failed experiment. failed experiment = no Claymore, so it's = to human? (Now you know why I have trouble with Mathematics in school)

She's past human now...bring back the guard dude from Rabona who had the hots for Clare...or the knife throwing sidekick. I'm just tired of Raki.

how would raki become a claymore???

anywho, i think we all like raki as a human character. unlike the claymores he has qualities of human, which i personally like. thats the same with Clare and Clarice to some extent.

I think its cool for Raki to persevere even though we/he knows the difficulty of standing against the claymores and yomas.

How would Raki become a Claymore? Cut off his weiner. Claymores are ALL females and the equation:
Male Claymores= disaster
will ring true regardless. Let him fight it out as a human character and maybe he'll inspire readers that whatever the odds, keeping moving forward. Of course, if he becomes a Claymore and dresses like the Claymores in those skin tight unis, I;ll start ripping my eyes out.

Do let me know if you disagree with me at any point. Enjoy your day too.
Today 10:35 AM

SCHOOL'S IN with PROFESSOR HYNAVIAN!:thumbup:

This is from chapter 56 page 142, Isley's words. I think he intends to make Raki a claymore or perhaps even more... a awakened being.
What do you think?

First, an Abyssal like Isley thinks of humans as inferior insects. The only reason why he helped (or tutored) Raki was because Prissy took a liking to Raki. Now if your gf had a dog, and that dog needs to be taught how to fetch, roll over, play dead etc, you will volunteer your time.

2nd, he's got his own army of 27 (or had 27) of AB's at THAT time. They were wiped out BY both Riful and Alicia/Beth. So that COULD leave Raki as his obvious candidate for to become a Claymore/AB

BUt no one exactly knows where yomas come from, nor how the transformation process works. The ORG knows, but beware of the equation: male claymores = major disaster.

And Raki being an impulsive horndog who wants to be with Clare, he'll end up easily being an AB. Male Claymores have no discipline in keeping their Claymore forms as you all know.

There is no doubt in the manga that as soon as Raki left the dungeon, the manga portray Raki on a ruined city and he his first encounter was definately Priscilla, then isley, as there should be no survivor near town, Illusion i think you missed a few chapter of the manga.

I think its sightly possible that there will man claymore, as the organisation have lost most of there claymores, its nessecary they need tranees asap and maybe talented man claymore to fight priscilla, they could always develop new experiment to keep man claymore liveline possible and it will be interesting to see something new like see Raki as a claymore. Maybe not all claymore would awaken, seems like the founders and the watchers in the organisation could once were claymores.

Ah really sux if Miata awakens, poor little girl.
you kind of right he might meet isley and priscillia after he escaped the dungeon, but the manga nessaraly doesnt tells that and this only a theory dude we have to get to get answer. however you might right, but i still believe in my theory it makes more sense and if he did meet isley he might realize that he is an awaken being unless is super dumb.

p.s- i always read things carefully to look for things that interest me or makes me wonder. oh here another theory which might be true and i will welcome any comments or suggestions so please do say something. theory 2. i believe that the org cloak dudes might be like some kind of special yoma, but however i do not have enough evidence yet to support these, but i would like to hear something new if you agree with me. thank you for your comments everyone. :eban: :devil: :thumbup:

i am not saying that he didnt meet isley in the north. what iam saying is that he might have been separate while he was in the dungeon of destroyed city. that city might have been the destroy by the awaken beens that suppose to have kill the claymores in the north or by isley or priscillia either option raki sures survives and might have been separated from isley unless isley was actually searching for raki which i find hard to picture that the same for priscillia since she always most of the times follow isley. and lastly i do not what exactly lead to raki get caught by slave trader and him getting stuck in a dungeon. so there you have it. p.s if i have time i will recheck that specific chapter . important reminder i am usually only around here at 3 or 4 pm canadian time which i do remember what is call(i think it might be same time as usa or pafic time sorry i am cluless about time zones)

Add baby-sitting Priscilla into Isley's list. I think Raki might be quite oblivious to the surroundings as he's not someont who would stalk Isley if Isley was to disappear suddenly. Priscilla maybe but not Isley. Isley and Priscilla could have come up with some weird excuse to go out, eat someone and come back. They can maybe eat some human food with Raki at the dining table to fool Raki. :eek:

If you're talking about acting AB's (former male Claympores) acting like a bunch of idiots @ Pieta, especially those 3 forward recon AB's...then yes, they are "successful" savages.
What I meant was that male Claymores awaken VERY EASILY...obviously they DONT have the discipline to keep their yoki WITHIN their limits, ergo, they end up as AB's. How can that be called a success?
Unless I'm a male Claymore who got sick and tired of my human form and turned into an AB intentionally just to find out what human guts tastes like...

If my gf would ask me to teach her dog how to fetch I will say "NO!"(not because I don't like dog and I don't like them anyway).

I'm not a dog person myself. In Hollywood and the parties I attend, it's like dogs here are prerequisites for having a social life. My buddy who works for Paris Hilton's publicity agent has to work with them 24/7 so I understand where your coming from.

Finally we get to see a 3/4 awakened Clare (or do you still call it half awakening?) with blade-like weapons coming out from her arms. Jeane and Raki also finally made it the match location and I have a rough idea how the animes is going to end.

We'll see Jeane dying the same way as she did in the manga. Getting killed by Clare's blades in the end. Oh no...poor Jeane, walking all the way there just to get killed :o

What do you all think of Raki's performance for this episode? Improvement or still a sizzy?

Jean dies? perfect! That's for carrying the brat and ruining the future and last episode. In order to appease every manga fan, Jean will have to eat lava. And how exactly do you "regenerate slowly" if you have a massive wound, and carrying an underage boy with you?

Now I'm worried about the future of the 7. I'm thinking the AB's are going to attack the last Claymores @ Pieta with Tabitha and Cynthia escaping. Don't kill Cynthia!

Add baby-sitting Priscilla into Isley's list. I think Raki might be quite oblivious to the surroundings as he's not someont who would stalk Isley if Isley was to disappear suddenly. Priscilla maybe but not Isley. Isley and Priscilla could have come up with some weird excuse to go out, eat someone and come back. They can maybe eat some human food with Raki at the dining table to fool Raki. :eek:

still it would be like

Raki: "so priscilla, what do u and isely do for a living?"

Priscella: "yes i like living..."

Raki: 0.o'.....

btw- i totally agree with macenkrace on the dog thing thou - u already have a bit** to watch over, u dont need another one, bros b4 hoes ya know? ^-^ (completly kidding btw, dont want to offend any girls ...are any of u even girls???, usernames arnt very gender separated...) remember tho, there is such thing as a guy being too clingy...no one likes an overly clingy bf

Oh no, MacenKrace be more romantic! Thats the first way to impress your girlfiend

O.o there is no girls in this forum??

I think that the ending will be that Priscilla will get killed by Clare,with the aid of all the Claymores that were present at the Northern War.Jean will definitely sacrifice her life to save Clare since she owes herone.Isley will most likely fight with iful and maybe Luciella.But Priscilla armour is like super useful,complete protection at the neck,so beheading her is hard,except at the middle part of the neck armour which has a small slit at the armour area at the neck.

Galatea should be involved as well.maybe she will also help Clare to revertback and maybe,just maybe Jean might not die.it be great if they do 1 hr special

Jean dies? perfect! That's for carrying the brat and ruining the future and last episode. In order to appease every manga fan, Jean will have to eat lava. And how exactly do you "regenerate slowly" if you have a massive wound, and carrying an underage boy with you?

Prezzo it's obvious that Jeane lied to that weak Raki. As Raki was on her shoulder (and couldnt see her real condition) she made up some lie so that Raki would be a good kid and hang on tight to her. The recent episode really showed Jeane's determination. It's because of such determination that she was able to revert back after fully awakening.

It'll be a waste for her to die by falling into a larva. A sacrifical death would be good.

Now I'm worried about the future of the 7. I'm thinking the AB's are going to attack the last Claymores @ Pieta with Tabitha and Cynthia escaping. Don't kill Cynthia!

Prezzo, I have been thinking hard and couldn't figure out an ending for the other Claymores. I wonder how Madhouse is going to wrap up everything in the next episode.

Check out Priscilla's "fully awakened" form. What's with that metal like thing on her neck? If my guess is right, someone is going to cut her head off in the next episode.

******************************************

As for the last episode... what do you think it will happen?

Hynavian version of what I think will happen

- Helen, Miria, Deneve work together with Clare to attack Prisiclla.
- Raki evoked Priscilla's human side and she hesitated.
- Clare ks and pks Priscilla (chops off Priscilla's head)
- Clare pks Jeane (Clare revert back to human)
- All Claymores faint due to exhaustion etc (suppression pills kick into effect)
- Raki ran back to Pieta to look for help.
- Isley left during half-time to lead his team in the invasion of Pieta
- Isley pks all the Claymore (except Cynthia, Yuma and Tabitha <--- fake deaths with the pills)
- Isley picked up Raki and hold him captive.
- Zoom 7 years later, showing Clarice.

-End-

************************************************

Galatea should be involved as well.maybe she will also help Clare to revertback and maybe,just maybe Jean might not die.it be great if they do 1 hr special

It'll be great if Galatea do join in the fight. But if Galatea sacrificed herself and get killed somewhere I would be mourning for the whole of next week.

Btw, I like your idea of a 1 hr special and your ending where all the Claymores come and help Clare fight priscilla. I wonder how many will fall into the larva this way?

And?

Priscilla wont die. IF Priscilla dies, MH will shut the door for a possible season 2. The correct result for next ep is that Pris will "appear" to die to give credence to the manga. Jean will definitely eat lava by sacrificing or being killed by one of the major characters. She already knows she's dead and she needs to return the favor to Clare.

I doubt with 22 minutes that Riful or Lucy will make a sudden appearance. Might as well stick Alicia and Beth in there if that's the case. The only way for Priscilla to die is by group effort but those blades for Clare 2 looks potentially effective.

Prezzo it's obvious that Jeane lied to that weak Raki. As Raki was on her shoulder (and couldnt see her real condition) she made up some lie so that Raki would be a good kid and hang on tight to her. The recent episode really showed Jeane's determination. It's because of such determination that she was able to revert back after fully awakening

I knew you were going to say that...see my previous post. She's just trying REAL HARD to return the favor to Clare, and w/ Raki in tow, the tide will turn in her favor with the Raki factor. Jean is obviously using Raki for her ends.

It'll be a waste for her to die by falling into a larva. A sacrifical death would be good.

Either way, she's toast. I cant imagine her being alive @ the end of ep 26. IF she's alive, I'm starting my own film production company....pretty much eating my words.

Prezzo, I have been thinking hard and couldn't figure out an ending for the other Claymores. I wonder how Madhouse is going to wrap up everything in the next episode.

Check out Priscilla's "fully awakened" form. What's with that metal like thing on her neck? If my guess is right, someone is going to cut her head off in the next episode.

Ending? The other AB's go back to Pieta and FINISH the other injured Claymores BUT Cynthia and Tabitha WITH YUma in tow as the 3 survivors of the massacre. That will wrap up the Pieta angle...

That's the onlyw ay to stop an Abyssal, go for the neck...except for Riful though.

I'll comment on your list of what will happen later...

That's a nice way to end things with Priscilla not dying. I think maybe she will suddenl become conscious of what she had become, start screming alot and then fly off? I think this is a good way to end stuff.

Clare cant die either, because she's the star of the series so between those 2, Clare has the biggest odds of NOt dying. So MAYBE Priscilla has to APPEAR to be killed by Jean. The antagonist IF Prissy dies would squarely be on the shoulders of Isley and it's gonna be lonely @ the top. My prediction as usual is Jean dies (95%) and Raki (60%) dies as well.
Priscilla will probably be seen falling into the lava with JEAN strangling her while falling...

Jeane! Nooooooo...........
I really hope that she won't die but I know where it's heading. Likewise, if she doesn't die, I'll join you in your new film company.

She's a toasted donut (pun on the hole). See previous post. Her last words will be "I told you Clare I'll return the favoooooooo..." SPLASH PSSST!!:devil:

and Yes, I;ll man up to my prediction. I;ll even call my film company Jean Lives LLC. So you'd better die Jean.:skull:

Such dishonourable way of fighting. Attacking a group of injured warriors. And omg, attacking babes

Absolutely. Those stupid AB's better not hurt my Cynthia and Tabitha. Yuma can die though. hehe Yuma looks better in the anime than the manga though.
The tragedy in the last 2 minutes I predict after the celebration they go back to Pieta and Cynthia and Tabitha are seen half dead on the road with Yuma beside them and they tell the story that Isley ordered the AB's to finish the job and kill everyone @ Pieta. After Priscilla is killed (?), they go after Isley for revenge...season 2.(maybe).

- Isley pks all the Claymore (except Cynthia, Yuma and Tabitha <--- fake deaths with the pills)
- Isley picked up Raki and hold him captive.
- Zoom 7 years later, showing Clarice.

What ks and pks? And why is Raki still alive? At least have one of his arms chopped off. I want him to be either physically or emotionally scarred. I actually forgot about the magic beans. But still Clarice showing up @ the end...I;ll take that. We see Clarice, there's a stronger possibility of season 2.
I'll think of a role for galatea later...

Wicked! It's a nice way to end things up and we fans can maybe get a season 2 in maybe 5 years time. Or Madhouse can come up with an alternative plot starring Clarice as the lead. Clarice seriously needs more screen time! Miata is always snatching her spot-light.

Oh pk and ks are terms where we used in game. (ks=kill steal, pk=player kill) For example, if you're attacking a monster in a game, the monster life is left with 1%. Some random player from out of normal comes along and kill the monster that you're about to kill. That we call ---> ks (kill steal).

As for pk, it's much easier to understand. The various characters in-game are controlled by real-life game players. And when one player controlled his character to kill another character that is controlled by another player, we call that pk. Pk is where players did not kill monsters that are computer controlled but kill charcters that are controlled by real players instead.

I'll think of a role for galatea later...

Come up with a good role for Galatea or I will demote you to that of a janitor! :lol:

Prezzo...I'm down with a flu and went to see the doctor.

I am sure of two points one being just my opinion. I will stick to the manga til the end and Raki is basically like Riku from Blood+ and will essentially be a snack for Prisilla like Riku was to Diva

We've got no choice now that next week is the end of the anime, But I have always preferred the manga.

BUT the anime versions of Teresa, Ophelia, CYnthia and Flora were MORE attractive and SUPERIOR than the manga...bar none.

episode 25 subbed has appeared... I hope you enjoyed it.

I wont trash it completely like other people on other Claymore forums BUT overall they have done a very good job on episode 25. I wont even nitpick right now on the negative...hopefully ep 26 will be OK, at least.

Prezzo...I'm down with a flu and went to see the doctor.

No excuses! What are u...Raki? The best medication for colds is hard alcohol or beer.:lol:

Don't worry about Galatea's role, I;ll think of something later. And I've never been demoted before...you're just pissed I demoted YOU to janitor. LOL.

The ending without a conclusion add more insults to the injury of having to sit through four straight episodes comprised mostly of filler material. Which begs the obvious question. If TPTB weren't going to give us some sort of resolution then what was the point of changing the story? They could have easily stick to the manga and end the anime right before the seven year gap. My suspicion is that most of the changes, from the interposition of Jean between Clare and Flora, to the meaningless babbles of Rubel and Galatea, to the botch fight by the three amigos, all of it was done for the sake of expediency. They had stock footage to recycle, frames that could be used again to save a few bucks. That crappy ending was all about $$$ and that's what sucked the most about it. :mad:

I've had an epiphany lately and realized what was wrong with the episode. (Don't worry, I've cooled off).

1) They had stock footage to recycle, frames that could be used again to save a few bucks. That crappy ending was all about $$$ and that's what sucked the most about it.

That's definitely NOT it. You haven't realized if it was for $$$, how come you DIDN'T PAY for the privilege of watching it? We all know that the episode was "stolen" then subbed that's why you could watch it. Let's give MH some props here for their animation.

Its the writing that reprehensible.

Those "stills" that you saw was only for Teresa and lasted a few seconds only. The action was excellent but I'm thinking sanely now aside from my last post, that I wanted Raki dead because a suffering Clare is great for the series...manga and anime.

2) My suspicion is that most of the changes, from the interposition of Jean between Clare and Flora, to the meaningless babbles of Rubel and Galatea, to the botch fight by the three amigos, all of it was done for the sake of expediency.

Expediency? I don't see it. I actually find it "slow" by my standards. The "babbles" that you spoke of with Rubel and Galatea was a refreshing take from what I read in the manga. Galatea in the manga (now that you wanted something to be close to the manga) has displayed the most rebellious traits amongst the Claymores, aside from Miria and is simply a set up for a "potential" 2nd season or OVA.

The "botch" fight for the 3 was simply, a "botch" fight..they couldn't win vs Pris, you're simply over analyzing things.

3) The ending without a conclusion add more insults to the injury of having to sit through four straight episodes comprised mostly of filler material.

The ending was concluded with those 2 being together. Just like ANY other anime series ending, there are some questions unanswered...AND no closure (for potential 2nd season). The only "filler" episode that I can come up in the series was episode 20 when they were all gearing up for the invasion of Pieta.

*****now here's why I disliked the ending...

1) Raki.

2) The forgiveness-morality angle. I didn't follow the manga since 2005 so Priscilla can be forgiven. I simply want to see her head on a silver platter or rolling on the ground as the result of Clare's journey of revenge. That's the central theme of the series. Manga fans should also agree with me that in the end after massive battles and build up to the climax, Clare forgives Pris? Are you kidding me?

Clare had the chance to take her head off, and was in the same position as Teresa was before bUT she hesitated again BECAUSE of Raki. That could've ended the series altogether. History repeated itself, and the same unacceptable situation reared it;s ugly head in favor of Priscilla...again. Lucky villain.

*****

The Slashers going their separate ways I have no problem with that...it's a refreshing angle from the manga, so' s Galatea's character build up as a potential ally of the Slashers' in the future. I am "semi" disappointed not seeing Clarice or Alicia/Beth but that's how they roll.

er.. i didn't read all this Thread because i am bit lazy, so claymore anime is over then? no more second season? only read manga for now? hmm last episode of claymore was bit sad, i mean come on raki crys, clare spare crazy pricilia(she has big issue over hear head). Oh well anyway did they end claymore series for anime because they didn't have money?

It's not because of lack of money...they ended the series for 26 episodes which is a very good sign of the commitment from Nippon Tv and Avex. Remember, Claymore is being shown at 1:30 IN THE MORNING in Japan, yet they beat other animes in the ratings shown at earlier times.
They're not in the top 10 though, usually they're ranked # 15 for the week.
I have also noticed that it's been the same sponsors @ the end of the ED from beggining to end and that's how you can gauge the success of a series.

So lets say they are going to have a second season, what would it be about? The way they ended the anime makes it seem like there wont be a second season.
And its really sad the anime didnt follow the manga there at the end, the manga version is way way better

Yes, the manga is superior BUT this is anime...it's Madhouse's call to "re-invent" the series to their liking: it's their production. At first, I was PO'd that they screwed up the manga @ the end but after thinking about it, they came up with a different version that also brings in a new audience who don't read the manga.

It is selfish for the manga followers like myself to OWN the series and be high and mighty about it.

Yes, the way they ended it...it left the door open BUT we are looking @ the most 3 years down the line for a new season.

Right now, anime ep 26 is equivalent to manga chapter 62. we are now @ chapter 73. Not much room to make up 26 episodes. One anime ep is like 3 chapters of the manga...not much material to work with.

And it will be confusing as hell...in the manga, Raki is MIA while in the anime, he's with Clare.

So right now, Im trying to get rid of my anime memories by reading the manga all over again, even though I;ve read it back to back 20 times already...

God the rumors of a 2nd series are really starting to piss me off now THERE IS NOT GOING TO BE A 2ND SERIES ITS IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE ANIME TO DO THAT UNLESS IT GOES OFF THE MANGA PLOT WHICH THE LAST FEW EPS OF IT SHOWED FAILS EPICALY... sry had to get that off my chest XD

you know there are other way to forget about the anime... just read other manga series until the next chapter appears in October.

Unfortunately, I have a very good memory and needed in my line of work. For the sake of "courtesy", I have to remember most of these pompous returning actors (& their recent resume) during auditions or my boss will have my head.

God the rumors of a 2nd series are really starting to piss me off now THERE IS NOT GOING TO BE A 2ND SERIES ITS IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE ANIME TO DO THAT UNLESS IT GOES OFF THE MANGA PLOT WHICH THE LAST FEW EPS OF IT SHOWED FAILS EPICALY... sry had to get that off my chest XD

Chill...nothing's official yet. See my previous posts...there's no material for a 2nd season.

I repeat, we're currently @ manga chapter 73 and the anime ended @ manga chapter 62. The remaining chapters will comprise of 4 anime episodes??? NOT ENOUGH. So don;t worry...

09-28-2007, 08:11 AM

No no thats what i mean its impossible for them to make a 2nd series not only cause of there not being enough manga but because of the state they left the end of the 1st season in if there is a 2nd series which i seriously doubt it probobly won't be made within the next 5 years and i'm just pissed off with people saying OMG THERE's GONNA BE A 2ND SEASON IN 1/2 a year i'd love to see them make 26 eps outta 17 chapters taht would be worse than naruto shipuuden...

A 2nd season based on material...look down 3-5 years down the road. Anyone who thinks it's faster than that should get a life.

A 2nd season based on the ending of the anime with Clare travelling with Raki? I hope not. Either Raki gets kidnapped which pisses off Clare and asks the Slashers' to help her is the only angle I can think of.
Now if Clare isn't around and Galatea takes her place, that would be the next logical step.

Also...IF the next season is based on Deneve, Helen and Miria's training and revenge against the ORG, so be it...I'll be interested.

There really won't be a 2nd series though unless someone persuades them to create it cause they wouldn't of ended the anime follwing the manga if they intended on doing that anyway enough anime talk the anime pisses me off and there's another extra chapter coming out soon who do you think its going to be on this time i think it'll be either raphela (sp?) or galetea (sp? again XD).

If TPTB weren't going to give us some sort of resolution then what was the point of changing the story? They could have easily stick to the manga and end the anime right before the seven year gap.

I totally agree with you cfrankb. I was expecting some resolution or at least a totally different path from the manga but the anime ended off somehow similar like tha manga. [minus that raki with clare part]

Similarities EG: Jeane dead, The Big 4 survived, Isley & Priscilla still alive etc.

************************************************

*****now here's why I disliked the ending...

1) Raki.

As expected from my buddy who strongly disliked the anime Raki f:lol:

2) The forgiveness-morality angle. I didn't follow the manga since 2005 so Priscilla can be forgiven. I simply want to see her head on a silver platter or rolling on the ground as the result of Clare's journey of revenge. That's the central theme of the series. Manga fans should also agree with me that in the end after massive battles and build up to the climax, Clare forgives Pris? Are you kidding me?

I didn't see the "forgiveness" part coming but this is what pisses me off the most. If there is not going to be any bloodshed or anything at the end of the anime, Madhouse should have followed the anime closely instead of removing and adding in redundant parts.

Prezzo, look at it in a bright way. I was touched towards the end of the anime when Clare questioned and asked Teresa whether it was ok for her to live on like this (not avenging Teresa etc). I think the part where Clare forgave and let Prisiclla off made the ending a little more touching as I'm sure Teresa would not want Clare to sacrifice herself just to avenge her. I was almost crying when I saw Teresa appearing at the end (sentimental person I am).

Clare had the chance to take her head off, and was in the same position as Teresa was before bUT she hesitated again BECAUSE of Raki. That could've ended the series altogether. History repeated itself, and the same unacceptable situation reared it;s ugly head in favor of Priscilla...again. Lucky villain.

My sixth sense (different from Miata's sixth sense) tells me that Claymore 2 will be on Raki attempting to avenge Clare's death as Clare got killed by some stupid awakened being while trying to protect Raki. Hence, the story of Raki the cry-baby claymore begins.....

Im joking about the part on Claymore 2

The Slashers going their separate ways I have no problem with that...it's a refreshing angle from the manga, so' s Galatea's character build up as a potential ally of the Slashers' in the future. I am "semi" disappointed not seeing Clarice or Alicia/Beth but that's how they roll.

After watching the whole anime, my impressions of the various characters have changed. Below is a run-down on what I am "feeling" towards the various characters.

Galatea +100%
Reason: What she had done throughout for Clare and Jeane. And for her guts for deceiving the organisation twice without twitching. The first being lying to the organisation that Clare and Jeane got killed by Riful and the 2nd time where she lied to Rubel that Clare and gang got killed as she couldn't sense their yoki.

Flora +50%
Reason: Sexy voice dubbing and nice hairstyle. The anime portrays her much sweeter, sexier and cooler.

Miria +75%
Reason: One can acutally see her phantoms more clearer and admire her mirages in awe as compared to the manga (boring). Her performances in the anime can be used to add on to all her good points in the manga :)

Helen +50%
Reason: She was given more screen time in the anime and she had more character development. She cried for Clare when she almost killed her, was worried for her friends and her happy go lucky attitude definitely was shown.

Jeane +50% [Prezzo will hate me for this]
Reason: Her last moments were cool in the anime. She really pushed on to the limit when she could have given up somewhere along the way. And she managed to convince a sissy Raki to at least develop a backbone. We need more characters with this type of spirit around or we would see a lot of people owning others stuff or giving up too easily in the Claymore world.

Come on Prezzo Jeane is cool :eban:

Raki -80%
Reason: The reason that he didn't receive a -100% because he managed to pull himself up and to at least say some redeeming stuff at the end of the episode. I think the part where he said "Clare I love you" saved him 10% of my points as that would be a line where we might never get to hear in the manga (IMO). The other redeeming 10% went to his guts to try to stop Clare from killing Priscilla.

If Clare kills Priscilla at the volcano spot, I would not find the ending anymore touching as it was now. Clare telling Teresa "I killed Priscilla RIP now" would not be a touching ending as compared to Clare remembering what Teresa said "live as a human among the humans..." To forgive and to move on and to live a happy life would be better than always living in a life of revenge and anger.

:thumbup:

I think the part where Clare forgave and let Prisiclla off made the ending a little more touching as I'm sure Teresa would not want Clare to sacrifice herself just to avenge her. I was almost crying when I saw Teresa appearing at the end (sentimental person I am).

I was also close to being in TEARS...because Raki DIDN'T DIE.

So in the anime, Clare's purpose in life is to be Raki's "companion"? and NOT to destroy Priscilla? Thank God, I have the manga to look forward to..that morality play is just plain unacceptable to me.

In that case, Miria should FORGIVE the Org and every AB who killed the others @ Pieta. (not in the anime though).

My sixth sense (different from Miata's sixth sense) tells me that Claymore 2 will be on Raki attempting to avenge Clare's death as Clare got killed by some stupid awakened being while trying to protect Raki. Hence, the story of Raki the cry-baby claymore begins.....

They should change it to Crymore...the adventures of the cyybaby companion of Clare.

Jeane +50% [Prezzo will hate me for this]
Reason: Her last moments were cool in the anime. She really pushed on to the limit when she could have given up somewhere along the way. And she managed to convince a sissy Raki to at least develop a backbone. We need more characters with this type of spirit around or we would see a lot of people owning others stuff or giving up too easily in the Claymore world.

Come on Prezzo Jeane is cool

It was a mortal sin for the anime Jean to invite Raki in the first place. If she DIDN'T, Jean should be ALIVE, Priscilla would be DEAD and the Slashers would be TOGETHER.

That creepy lesbo deserved it.

BTW, now with Jean dead...I'm off the hook on my prod'n co.

If Clare kills Priscilla at the volcano spot, I would not find the ending anymore touching as it was now. Clare telling Teresa "I killed Priscilla RIP now" would not be a touching ending as compared to Clare remembering what Teresa said "live as a human among the humans..." To forgive and to move on and to live a happy life would be better than always living in a life of revenge and anger.

Sorry...I didn't follow the manga since 2005 to be "touched". I suggest you read Love Hina' or High School Days' to be "touched" but Claymore, to be blunt, is about the journey of Clare into her objective...kill Pris.

Who's the character of the week for the upcoming week? Any nominees?

Helen.
