From what we know now, the centreline of a Claymore is the most vulnerable spot, isn't it? Apart from decapitation, this is the other one injury that a Claymore cannot fix on a battlefield.

they also finally explained that too...and showed it all. generally speaking, a claymore should be good enough to overcome those vulnerabilities. if you manage to actually hit a claymore there, they probably weren't good enough to begin with.

i wonder how preicilla will react to this reunion.

Finally Clare is back, nice chapter.
The explanation about how Claymores are born was given, no unexpected things, though.

Holy fuck!! This was the prolly the best chapter this whole year.
The moment we all waited for finally happened.
When I saw the tears from Clare I almost had a man-cry lol.
We also finally got to see what was on all Claymores stomachs.
I cant wait to see what happens when Priscilla comes out. I don't thin k she would kill Raki but for some reason, I think she is going to be jealous of Clare and Raki.

If Claire came out untreated could it be that Teresa might come out of that blob at some point too? Claire was warrior made from Teresa flesh.

I liked it how Claire "opened" to Raki ^_^

An opening traveling down the torso that won't heal and can only be held together with strong thread? That's quite brutal! It's hard to believe that the Claymores have fought and survived without ripping the sutures and dying.

I cried when Raki held Clare and told her how much he missed her. It's the moment I've been waiting for. I'm so glad that Clare is back!

Holy shit, so much happened all of a sudden

Clare is out of the blob (that was easy O_o), she meets Raki again and we get to see what a Claymore's body looks like (after all that buildup how terrifying it is, I guess it was a given that it'd be kinda disappointing).

But damn, chapter over so fast. Now what? It was confirmed again that it was Clare holding back Priscilla so she'll now be free again I guess and Cassandra will probably speed up even more upon realizing that.


On a side note: can someone remind me what happend to the Raphaela/Luciela-thingy? I think that was just left hanging or did I forget something?

Clare was hit there several times (the worst of them was when Ophelia cut her across the chest) and still lives so it probably isn't fatal as long as something (clothes, ribs, pressed hand) holds the isides from going outside.

Just me or was getting Clare out of that mass a little too easy?
Ever since Teresa revealed where the yoma flesh was implanted in her body to drive off those thieves I expected that part to be more grotesque. Or perhaps it was and the editors/publishers wouldn't allow it.
A good author leaves the audience enough material to be satisfied with, yet yearning for more.

Reunion after 7 years. nice hug Raki.

Yes.. it was bit too easy to get her out. I thought there will be some response from Priscilla. And Raki didn't recognized her properly. I guess she never did mahou bakemono transformation in front of him otherwise he would've recognized her easily with horn on her forehead.

Finally.. An explanation about claymore bodies and I'm glad it was not something creepy and grotesque.

you're right... but claire was always the weakest among them though. even so, this chapter just made me feel all warm and fuzzy.

i am not sure though, i never got the impression Priscilla was as close to him as Claire is....they were together for a long time but it felt more like a big brother taking care of a little sister. but maybe this might cause something. even so, they don't have time rest. a big baddie on its way.

Priscilla can do something outrageous considering her character. She was so obsessed with Teresa about why she betrayed organization. Teresa defeated or rather humiliated her but even after killing Teresa, she's still so obsessed with that Clair is the new target because of teresa flesh. Now that same Clare is taking her big brother and that is good enough reason for her to go berserk. :) but maybe not..

Me too :)
As for Clare if the (theoreticaly) weakest among them was able to survive that then others should be even less affected by it.

Rather loli big sister taking care of her little brother if the encounter with Renee is anything to judge by :) Still, she was attached to him more than to anyone since... well since she was forced to kill her family I think (does she even remember that far back?).
Jokes about clingy jealous girls going on killing sprees aside, Clare may be more of a problem than Priscilla since while Pris doesn't have any grudge toward her and possibly can be reasoned with if Raki steps in Clare will probably go nuts again and is likely to go into her kamikaze mode...

kisami said:

Thereticaly it should not matter since if Priscilla turns out to be hostile they are screwed anyway and if she doesn't then what can a mere Abyssal One do in her presence?
Of course it's not going to be that easy since genres "Action" and "Shounen" oblige author to put some action in so someone is going to start a fight for sure...

So Clare is out just like that, but i'm guessing she changed drastically, so we shall see... :D

Prissy awaken to be killed by Clare's hand already, i want blood for Tressa...
We read 129 ch.s but she is still my favorite Claymore although She only appeared like 5-6 (don't know) ch.s. i want her to be avanged...

Go to Visual Novel Database and look at the screenshots of Dustmania Grotesque, there are a lot of people (too many if you ask me) who go for that kind of shit.
I hope that no one with such fetishes exist in Claymore world...

Same here. Kind of disappointing it's not as grotesque as the impressive they gave.
I'm expecting Teresa's face/head could be seen for Clare's case as well.

When i first saw her emerging from that thing there didn't seem to be anything on her body and i thought the author used the merging with that monster to give her a new body so she can sex Raki all she wants without feeling embarrassed but i guess i was wrong. Yagi isn't much a fan of pleasantries.

The whole non-healing scar though seems stupid. We have seen Claymores getting wounded over that scar many times. So if it's so deadly to them i can't imagine how they are still alive.
Also that scar was basically from the neck down to their freaking pussy. I think we saw the full neck or little under it of Claymores before and i don't remember any scar which makes me think that this wasn't what Yagi was initially planning or he got forgotten while drawing a few times.

I was thinking the same and I went looking for proof but I couldn't find one - both normal Claymore clothes and the outfits the Ghosts wore covered the necks, so did the disguises Clare was wearing in "Darkness in Paradise" and "The Witch's Maw". I did not made page-by-page check of the whole manga so maybe there is something to be found there but it seems to me that so far, no matter how skimpy their outfits were, warriors always had their necks covered up tightly.

Am I the only one who didn't particularly cared about the reunion? ._. I mean it's nice for them to be back together and romantic stuff and so forth, but I wasn't even near tears then Raki jumped at her.

Neat chapter IMO, I liked it that lots of stuff happened and that that chick from the beginning is back on the team. The scar on the whole body is not a bad, could have been something better, could have been something worse. Re-reading some chapters I think i saw naked Claymores in, i found this. Maybe the scar was planed from the start.


On the other hand, does this count as an counter-argument? This is an awakened after all.

No, it doesn't. Awakened beings in their human form have their old human hair color so it seems that they can assume the form they had before organization tampered with their bodies. Perhaps their shapeshifting abilities allow them to overcome the limitations put on regenerative abilities or something.
HandedSword said:

I'm reading both. Personally I like Claymore better but not by that much. Main problems with Berserk are it's ridiculously slow (and unpredictably irregular) publishing rate, it's tendency to go off-track with the story (but then again last arc of Claymore (the whole fight with ressurrected number ones) did not have much point to it either) and the fact that original seinen genre is lately shifting into shounen but the story still is good and the world setting is far more complex than the one we have now in Claymore (I hope it will change in the future though).

Maybe I'm crazy, but I was actually hoping that the author would never reveal how a Claymore's body actually looked like... It was just one of those big mysteries in the story that you always wondered about but it was left to the imagination. Also there was such a huge build up (those pack of thieves, grown up Raki crying from seeing it etc.) to it that it kind of disappointed me.

Still very nice chapter. As usual, waiting for next month's chapter will be really difficult..

No. you're not crazy. I was also hoping this and many other peoples as well. It's not a problem to leave some mysteries to reader imagination. especially this kind of mysteries where most of people thought it will be something grotesque. So there was bound to be disappointment for some. Though i'm glad it was not something like that.
