Awesome. She actually managed to take down all of them just like that. And what's the deal with the cloaked guy? He talks a big game, but doesn't do nothing himself.

This episode sure got me off-guard. I've heard that there's some drama in this anime, but after all, I expected just a better version of the everyday-shounens. And then - the emotionality level of this episode come out of nowhere. Especially in the moment when Teresa was to be executed... From experience I know that most of my favorite animes surprised me just like this while I wasn't expecting something as good as they end up offering. I admit it, Claymore did very well here.

i hope the next episode don't have the same talk about the money and the cloak man.. lol i'm sick of it already
... i'm watching and "I ALREADY KNOW THAT, DAMN!!! XDDDDDD"

Haha, I thought of this too xD but I guess it might end up being something like this anime's catchphrase. You know, like Ai's words in Jigoku Shoujo xD

Btw, this episode's score: 70/11/1/0/0 xD I guess I'm not the only one!

Very nice episode. Teresa is such a badass and small Clare is so cute. I only wish I could like Raki as much as I like Clare as a child. Who knows? Maybe in the next episodes.
But I am wondering why Clare became a Claymore after all?

Awesome Episode
'"Hearts, you say? You Humans are always so quick to speak of such things. As though you carry your hearts in the very palms of your hands. But this eye of mine perceives all. There is nothing that it overlooks. If this eye cannot see a thing, then it does not exist. That is the assumption under which I have always fought. What is this "heart"?

Best episode so far. Really liking all these Teresa and Clare moments. No one can mess with Teresa. She can't even be executed at her execution xD

Same ^^ Even though it is a flashback arc there's just something awesome about these Teresa and Clare moments. I get the feeling Teresa represents a lot of things to Clare such as being a mother, a mentor, maybe even a sister and above all a friend.

Whoa it's still pretty bad, especially the way the bandits are written. Too bad they are smart enough to avoid the yoma but not smart enough to not provoke a claymore who could take down a yoma effortlessly. I don't know but the rule of "even if we're raped we're not allowed to defend ourself" is stupid as fuck. Don't know if it's to give the horny men out there something to fantasize about or what. Young Claire is also quite annoying.

I laughed (and quite hysterically) at the bandits. I don't see why regular humans are always talking like they're hot shit when they're up against one of the Claymores. Also, if rules and laws aren't stopping the bandits from raiding a town and killing its inhabitants, then why would they think that rules/laws are going to stop someone from wrecking their shit when they target someone they care about or in self defense you fucking idiots.
Matsuoka Yoshitsugu has hardly any range as a voice actor, and is grossly over-cast.

Yeah. I said it.

Hell yeah Teresa, she was gold this episode. When I realized that it was her sword that was seeped in blood as opposed to the other Claymores, I was cheering in my seat. Really hope she lives, easily the best character.

That scene with the town massacre was unsettling though. Very disturbing to think that the most malicious beasts are human beings and don't need disguises to blend in. That one bandit was really creepy, when he turned his head to greet Teresa it just sent chills down my spine. Ah but speaking of, glad she split his in two.

Dang, Teresa is strong, the speed, the strength.
Even taking down all 5 Claymore's at once.
Just noticed they're all blonde aswell.

Don't think Teresa's going to survive the fight vs #2 to #5 though :/

So she went and did it. Didn't expect that she would trash the other Claymore so easily. Probably won't go as smooth with the top members.

Good episode again, really enjoy the bound between Teresa and Clare.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

Teresa is a much better protagonist than Clare. I'm really gonna be bummed when the show catches back up to present time unless they do something amazing with Clare/Raki.

Still waiting for the Yoma to be interesting. They're so boring from a design/powers angle. I hope they do something more with them because with the eventual return to the present, I don't know if there's enough to keep me going. 6 episodes in and no solid hook...

Incapacitating is not the same as killing. Why didn't Teresa just... I don't know, break the bandits' limbs beyond repair or something? Plot conveniences, I guess.

3/5 episode mainly because I'm really liking how Teresa's character is being written so far. Such a shame everything else feels so plain and lowkey stupid tho. The "don't kill humans under ANY circumstances" rule is beyond retarded and the way those bandits were written was plain laughable.
