how come in this chapter there are 7 survivors, but in chapter 60 it said there were only 6 survivors and one of them had short hair (and it wasn't deneve, hellen, or clare) and that girl isn't in the chapters afterwards?

It's a little confusing.

I'm trying to remember what somebody said/explained to me, so this might not be a perfectly accurate explanation of your question:

(actually, if you're interested I can go back and look and return and post accurately what went on, aka about whom was whom and whom was unconscious, standing, or dead. But, this below is without me going back and checking, probably without me getting it accurately straight and correct)

2 of the surviving 7 Ghosts, were actually already knocked unconscious.

(not sure which ones, though probably it was 2 out of the 3, being Cynthia, Yuma, or Tabatha, as I can't see HAs, Deneve, Helen, Miria, or Clare being knocked unconscious early on)

We see the 6 Claymores still standing, surrounded by the ABs.

5 of these 6 standing Claymores are the other 5 of the 7 Ghosts (whom survive). 1 of these 6 standing Claymores will get killed.

Which then leaves us with the 7 surviving ghosts (6-1=5 and then 5+2=7), which are Miria, Cynthia, Deneve, Helen, Tabatha, Yuma, and Clare.

ohh that makes sense. So it's like lets say for example: uma and cynthia were already unconscious. So there were 6 claymores still standing. Then the one with the short hair that we don't see now probably died. And then uma and cynthia became conscious again which equals 7.

That's what im getting from what you're saying.

ah thanks, for doing the "work", lol.

so, Yuma (this I knew as her long straight hair stands out and there was no girl with such hair in that group of 6 "still standing") and Tabatha, were the ones.

(need to go write this down, before I forget, lol)

Good plan by Miria. She is a true leader unlike the Claymore who was leading Clarice and the other youngins.

7 years have passed? Ooh, Raki must have grown up by now then.

Miria thought of a plan and faked the death of some claymores, I guessed as far back in the final pages of the Pieta arc.

I wonder if I'm gonna like the post-time skip setting. At least Raki got his chance to train with Isley(WHO NOT ONLY SURVIVED, BUT ALSO WON THE LANDS, WHOOOOHOOOOOOO!(sorry, I tried to keep my excitement for the last two chapters, but I just couldn't do it, it seems)) - the development I so badly wanted to see in the anime(knowing I usually get stripped of the chance for such desires to be granted). Or at least I hope so!

It's also good that some of the newbies amongst the Claymores survived(and far too convenient that Clare's friends are amongst the survivors as well).

Ohhh yeah okay. I can see how the anime butchered its chances of a second season. It's great to see the original 4 again and the other 3 girls that survived seem likable as well. I can really feel those sisterhood vibes building up again since the time they were starting to bond in Pieta.

So they are survive huh.. Oh man, this is getting more interesting than what I expected. I don't get why they decided to make the anime has its own ending, it would be perfect if they continued it with the second season.

Yeah I honestly hope they make another Claymore anime at some point with better budget and intention to finish the whole story.

Unfortunately, according the MAL lore which I hear quite often after a year of wondering in this site, Madhouse rarely do second season.

But yeah, hypothetically speaking, I agree with you. If they wanted to make another season, making another Claymore anime is a plausible way considering that butchered ending kind of prevents and makes it hard to make a continuation from that point (if they decided to make a canonical adaptation). Or probably make another season starting from major event before that aforementioned ending.

Well who says madhouse has to do the reboot? ^_^ Maybe A1 Pictures, or Gonzo, or best still - UFOTABLE could take a shot at it? Wishful thinking - I know. But it would be pretty epic :)

Well, I am stuck with the conservative idea that if one studio made seasonal anime, the continuation would therefore be made by the same studio too. That perhaps because I rarely look deeper into how the industry runs itself.

But in that case yeah, Wishful thinking indeed but it would be epic.

I wasn't thrilled with the survival of some of the claymores, though I'm satisfied with the explanation given. I'm not a fan of revival nor deus ex machina, though I can let it pass in this case. My respect for Miria grew here.

Hats off to best leader Miria! She’s saved 7 and they’re obviously thankless to her for it but seeing her tear up even then really hurt. Hold your head up high, great warrior! Here’s to hoping the newbie won’t rat these “Ghosts” out. Of course I’m a little unclear here and there but I’m looking forward to answers now!

Claire is hell-bent on finding Reki and it’s good to have her back! I wonder when we’ll get back to Isley and Rafeala’s situations.

Idk what Clarice is thinking but, I'm not gonna lie, it's dumb to count the sword left by the Claymore to determine how many survived..... what if there's a claymore that wields more than 1 sword like Undyne ? That's just one, but there's many other reason it being a dumb method but whatever...

Hmm not the continuation that I expected and it is strange that any of them survived since the awakened ones were given explicit orders to murder absolutely everything alive in that town.
