This chapter didn't do much for me. Also, I thought some of the drawings were less good than I'm used to of Claymore.

well this chapter was good enough for what it was made. It showed the gaps between the ghosts and current claymores perfectly, as well as possibly adding more companions to the ghosts in the longer run.

It will also hopefully help to showcase the talents of other ghosts, while continuing to tease us about Claire.

Just a bridge filling the gap between november and january issue? Because aside from some not very important fight this chapter didn't offer much.
Unless there is something so important about those male AB or whatever they were that giving them a month of a time was justified.

Boring. Especially since it's a monthly chapter.Uninteresting considering that claymore is still a bit on a climax. These past few chapters have been lately disappointing and starting to feel that they are not worth the months wait.This chapter would have probably got away with the criticism if it were weekly but it's not. I don't wait a 4 weeks worth to see another set of characters that are probably going to get killed off soon. I mean, there are so many other potential characters that are already seen and can be focused on right now yet, he decides to stick to new characters.

Bad chapter, all this could have happaned in less than 10 pages. Anastasia's ability is stupid now, it would be so much more cool if she could, like, materialise a small ammount of yoki beneath her feet and use it to jump or send a "blast" of yoki trough her body gaining more momentum while in the air. Something else that doesn't involves her hair. It's fabulous, we got that, move on.

Not really. The little group of new claymores was caught off-guard, they didn't know that the awakened people are comming and didn't notice the ghosts until they were standing right next to them, while Deneve and co. were prepared and surprise-attacked both groups. But you're of course right about the ghost's power, but that was noted a few times already: while meeting Riful for the first time after the time-skip, while helping Dietrich fighting off an awakaned, Miria beating up every claymore in the organisation, more or less, so your justification is not enogh to make this chapter passable.

Claymore has been awesome, and has gotten more and more awesome with every chapter. Claymore is the furthest it's ever been from being boring, with this latest ch release. How can you be bored, when the previous ch, 110, dropped a bunch of bombshells on us, that NO ONE saw coming!?

Nothing really happened besides they've got reinforcement. I agree with Claymore losing quality. For me, everything covered by the anime was awesome, everything after that in the manga is average. Being monthly doesn't help either.

I actually thought that would be a more fitting male name as well.
Though seeing how most claymores look and act.. I'd say it's not too far fetched^^

Either way the best page was the last two, where this new group got completely outmatched.
The good ol' team made killing those awakened beings look like such a breeze (^.^)

I remember when the one thing I admired most about Yagi's work was the art. But it's so sloppy now.

Some parts are well drawn, whereas others just look completely rushed. A lot of facial deformation and incorrect body posture. It was hard for me to even continue reading it because all I could think about was the lack of effort put into the art in comparison to previous chapters. [volumes 8-12] As well, it seems Yagi is running out of ideas for awakened beings. They all look like recycled versions of past ones.

Anyhow, it was slow paced. I believe Claymore's highest peak is over. Tragic. And I was actually beginning to get intrigued again when they involved the other continent and their plan against the organization, but the absence of the main character and the death of Miria ruined that.

I think they pulled off the flying style explanation very well. Anyways Anastasia is badass and it looks like she might actually become an ally of our main characters. (Also that last panel was just awesome)

After Dietrich, a german given (only male) and family name, I stopped looking for symbolism in the names.

Nothing much to say this chapter, it appears that there is going to be a plague of these Awakened beings thanks to the previous arc. I almost can't believe that they're actually gonna fight their way through all that.

Well, they look like they have the Destroyer's projectiles in them, though I don't remember seeing them as humans with the projectiles in them when we first see them... hmm..

maybe Dae has already started on his "experiments", stabbing male humans with projectiles, he picked up while in the west, lol.

Yes yes i agree, i can feel the massive build-up! This chapter seems fine to me, though there are a lot of complaints in this thread, hahahahaha. It's fortunately i'm not a picky person when it comes to reading manga XD

For more than a year.

But this chapter answers my question - where the new AB keep coming from for all these years, especially the male ones. I guess the Organisation doesn't even resort to turning only warriors.

A surprising and creative explanation to the “flying” but uhh... still sounds incredible unpractical to use in the middle of a battle, what if your team mates don't know about it and get tangled with her hair hahah.
