Thread: Claymore

  1. #21
    I really liked the first episode, the op/end themes and animation were both good. Looking forward to episode 2.

    Certainly a great introduction to the series. The character seems interesting enough and I really love the setting. Plus, the Claymore girl has a huge freaking sword, hahaha.
    I really hope that this is going to turn out to be a great series.

    indeed, that was a very good first ep. action packed with lots of blood, and good animation. Hopefully this series will give me what tmgk couldn't.

    mildly entertained me.
    classic premise and character set-up. standard animation, good action, interesting music. i'm not going to start singing praises just yet though... let's see what the storyline is like first... good enough to keep watching, that's for sure

    so far the best thing is how smart and resourceful the Yoma are.

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    Ya its refreshing to see that they're not just mindless animals or grunts.

    Nice episode I'll give it 5 episodes to see where is going?
    Does anyone here read the manga I would like to ask a few things?

    A lot of us apparently read the manga, since there are a couple of comments illustrating their like or dislike of the adaptation.

    I only read the english scanlations, if that's good enough, you can send me a PM. I'm not going to spoil in this thread.

    (I'd rather not spoil it for you either, but if you are going to ask for it yourself, I will provide any information I can give.)

    Great start so far.
    Clare looks sexy and is awsome, the boy gives the right portion of sympathy.

    A Claymore is a sword.

    This show also reminds me of Berserk, granted its not as violent(yet). I like the animation style, seems to diverge from they typical drawing style from the more recent action animes. Havent read the manga but I keep hearing that the show doesnt fit the typical 26 episode format, hope they can adapt well.

    Or a directional anti-personnel mine... but I guess that's not what this show had in mind.
    Either way you don't want to be in its way.

    The series is interesting, though it does sort of fall into the generic fantasy anime series catagory so far, I'll give it a couple more eps before I decide. I might pick up the manga too.

    Just remember, the beginning is the slow part of the series. This series has tons of mysteries piled onto it.

    Think of the ones we can think about from just the first episode:

    -How many youmas are in the world hidden as humans, where do they come from?
    -How exactly are the Claymores made? How does their organization work?
    -Why are all the Claymores female?
    -Is Raki completely worthless?
    -Where do the other Claymores in the OP come into this series with Clare?

    These are just some of the few. I hope that episode two will inspire even more questions like these.
