Claymore got a 6 from me, 1-20 is an easy 9 but the drop was too much

I really hope some1 got fired...i could accept a horrible ending (*looks at elfen lied*) when they need to quickly finish of a series but to keep it this open ended... horrible!

Is the manga really so much better like everybody I have talked to so far said? I want it to be... And where can you download the manga anyways? O_o

I gotta say claymore used to be something that I looked forward to every week, but these past 6 episodes were just so painful to watch. Went from a 9 in my book to a 6. Disappointing is all there really is to say.

I've never read the manga so I've got no gripes to carry on from that angle. That being said, I believed the whole Pieta arc to be the weakest in the show. Still, I'd rate Claymore an 8/10 overall. I can't damn the series to a low score over one less than desirable arc since, looking at the show as a whole, the good outweighs the bad by a large margin.

Only complaint I have is that Raki cried too much; I don't remember Raki crying much in the manga.

I hope for a 2nd season.

Well seriously, reading on so many forums how the manga storyline is much better at the point of anime ending, spoilt a lot of fun for me ^^ Eitherways I never totally change my views on a series after a few bad/worse episodes compared to, let's say, 90 percent great/good ones. So it's still a 9 for me, there's no perfect anime I guess.

I'm really disappointed, for a serie that was pretty good to be ended like this is so lame... They totally screwed up the last episodes of this anime.

It wasn't an awesome or bad final, it seemed decent. I actually had low expectations with thinking that Raki would do his thing and stop Clare, but it was Jeane, so that was good. My only complaint was that how Clare overpowered Priscella in the fight was bad but it for sure is better then having that Raki ending. Now it's on to the manga. The Claymore universe is huge, we still haven't seen the other Dweller yet or the true intentions of the syndicate (at least anime-wise). I still believe that Claymore was a show worth watching, and will watch the possible season 2 when it comes out.

This.. was a disappointment =( i was hoping to be better than this. I believe it could have been better since i do read the manga and i prefer reading the manga than watching this =(

i third the question, "what was the point of this original ending?" they could of made the Rigaldo fight the last big fight and made the Priscilla thing a cliff-hanger for the next season but noooooooo.. we'll have a flashy and ridiculous battle on top of a VOLCANO FOR CHRISSAKE and then... nothing will happen!

oh jean died but she should of died about three episodes ago anyway.. it's hard to constantly feel bad for a character when she's been hanging on a thread for so long.. =

Meh, good anime all in all. Even if people do complain.

Horrible horrible horrible ending...this is easily as bad as Black Cats or the S-Cry-ed endings. Serioulsy i can type out right now 10 major plot holes no one ever bothered to carry out.Not to mention it was anti-climactic as all get out. pathetic ending to a fairly decent series (well was)

6.5/10

Trevor (OP)

Yes. It's not much further along than the anime though. Try mangatraders.com

Anyway, my sentiments have been pretty well voiced already, so I'll only add them in brief:

1) No point in a crap original ending if they leave it open-ended anyway.
2) Raki is worthless and should've died.
3) The animation quality makes me want to cry.
4) All the dialogue was ridiculously cheesy.
5) That fight was boring - nothing near as cool as any of the other big fights in the show.

Yay, thanks for the pointer Krelian. I'm glad that I wasn't the only one that noticed that the animation quality went way down... why? Why?! >.<

What happened after episode 19... to everything? Gah. >.<

I thought the ending was pretty good. It wasn't insanely bad and it wasn't over the top good. It was smack dab in the middle. I'm kind of happy the way things turned out.

lol gotta love the eyes on Jean

wow, so many people say the ending sucked. i havent read the manga, so i thot it was fine. i might have to read it now tho...

btw, DeathfireD, i REALLY hope thats not kakashi without his mask on because i still havent seen him that way........... thats him isnt it..? wtF man...

its ph

its photoshoped. No one has seen him without his mask yet.

I thought it was good, I liked it, could have been better, but I guess they left it open for a 2nd season...I hope. I don't read mangas so I'd like a 2nd season.

I lol'd so much ;D.

I havnt read the manga, but i dont need to to detest this ending. It was utter crap, seriously. So they stray from the manga, after following it at first, only to give such an ending as that??? This has been a major dissapointment for me, started off as a 10/10 and the most anticipating show for me, until they began straying from the manga (or so when people say they started to, for an anime original ending). Theres more stuff i wanted to say but i forgot what... ah wellz...

Yeah what a crap ending... I feel to give it a 6/10, but when i see what else i have given a 6.... Yeah i'll give it a 7/10.
Oh yeah, and congratulations Raki, you officially have become my most hated anime charecter! Lolz, what a shit ending.

edit: lolz, thats right, as soon as Jean jumped in front of Clare and pushed Raki out of the way, and Jean started talkin to Clare you know what they say, i seriously just didnt want to watch anymore. I so wanted to just get out of it, but i didnt since ofcourse i wanted to watch the whole thing, mann what a shit ending :P....

Oh yeah and with it all open im just even more pissed off that they went with this anime original ending all open like that, NOTHING WAS SOLVED! -_-' ... I swear they BETTER NOT make another 2nd season, cause if they do i will be soooo pissed off. If they do they should have completly followed the manga and left an open ending that way, not this disaster. A complete failure.

Mann what a shit ending....

yea, i was really looking forward to this epic climactic battle as well, only to be disappointed in the ending. the only action that could help redeem this tragedy would be letting me shoot raki in the face for being one of the most worthless and annoying anime sidekicks ever.
