Heh, yeah, no joke. Even Jiraiya lost an arm, and now this. I think it happened “off-screen” when she dodged the combined attacks of both Miyata and the former #2 turned Awakened Being, in the scene right before it showed her with the missing arm. It was “so fast” or whatever, but still pretty crazy. I think it’s a nice way to return to the series, I always found Galatea interesting, and she’s hot in that nun’s uniform. Also, I don’t know who’s weirder, Miyata…or the brunette Claymore who let her do that. Heh, either way, I enjoyed it. :P

God damn, as usual Miata has the personality of a TGV; Even Ophelia had better priorities than that crazy bitch.

And Clarice is useless, she´s about to piss her pants, i mean even the 2 guys from Clare´s past manage to get Agatha´s attention.

If she doesn´t at least try to guide Miata to stop killing Galatea and go for Agatha she´s nothing but dead weight and a walking milk fetish.

Agatha acts....likes she´s game if you know what i mean, maybe i´m thinking too much about it but if awakening is an ecstatic experience, maybe sexual relationships make a Claymore more susceptible to it.

That...ummm.... seems to be the entire point about her. Her reason for existance, so to speak. "I am useless, therefore I am."

:roll:

And I had to lol at that one:

[spoiler]Something's going to happen! Galatea won't be able to manage this alone and the duo miata/clarice is more like a dog with a complete moron as a master.
What it's gonna be? My guess is either clare team or riful is going to step in. Both would be a nice mayhem tho :D[/spoiler]

Well don't waste the time even if he does die. I guess you can't seem to appreciate the plot and character development of this series.

I agree. The story can't all be just fighting.

Though, I do hope w/ age Raki will mature and develop into a man with some capabilities, beyond that of some wuss lovechild.

For right now, Raki's character reminds me of Puck during the Blackswordsmen days of Berserk....minus the comic relief and faerie dust.

Puck was and is still funny! Raki is annoying at best but if the plot turn him into some kind of claymore or awaken being it could be very interesting!

Maybe his "love" and "pure heart" would allow him to control his awakened being-ness, which would allow him to take on the powers of an awakened being w/out becoming a monster. :kekeke:

I really don't see how that would be interesting beyond the fact that Claire would have to make a choice regarding him. Now if he is brainwashed on top of that now we are talking.

[spoiler]Well now miata might turn against the awaken being so there's hope. It start to be a bit repetitive and long this fight. I prefer when it's swift![/spoiler]

I'm extra late like always but I'm glad people actually read Claymore now.

I remember when I thought I was the only person that actually liked it but it's all good. Either way, I like how things turned out recently and I even started buying the series. Concerning Raki, his character was pretty flat at first but he always had potential and that was obviously the basis of his character. While he was merely a sidekick or even a handicap earlier in the series he has the chance to become something much more greater than he originally was. While his return will definitely be a major point, I do wonder if he will return to Claire's side or possibly even become her greatest antagonist somehow. It would be anticlmatic if he was killed off or didn't even get close to badassery.

Expected, yes, but the way it happened it still gave me goosebumps, and I'm really looking forward to 78.

Hi guys i dont want to read this thread yet cause of the spoilers for me.

I just wanna say i didnt expect Claymore to be this good after the anime who was generic monster slayer of the week type except in Teresa's great flashback.

Somehow the manga fills me with more emotion than the anime despite the vols im reading is exactly the same as the anime. Vol 5 is Teresa's flashback and market for death. Its more painful seeing her die the second time.

I hope it improves even more after this arc unlike the anime. The art is very good too. The Claymore dont look as dull in the faces as they did in the anime. They look cooler,more powerful.
