THIS IS A MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER.
----------------------------------------
What? No chapter discussion yet? Anyway A lot of fire power there against Priscilla but i doubt they can actually do anything to her. I don't think these are enough to defeat her so i wonder what is going to happen for our heroes not to get all killed? If these manga ends in some way with this battle i will be disappointed.

Priscilla hasn't even taken on her Awakened form yet and is still kicking everyone's ass. She might be one of the most ridiculously overpowered characters of all time (in her respective series).

I agree completely, Priscilla is on Layfon's level as an OP character. It doesn't look like they will be able to beat her at this rate. Maybe they will be able to convince her or something. Can't be sure until the next chapter comes out.

I was just about to post that Priscilla was going to die, but then I remembered that she hasn't even "powered up" yet.

My guess is that Priscilla will bring on the Apocalypse and wipe every one except for Clare and Raki. Clare and Raki will then merge into some kind of hybrid and beat Priscilla to death thus ending the war. The merge between Clare and Raki will miraculously heal the open incision on Clare's body. Raki and Clare will get married and live happily ever after raising little hybrid babies. ~The End

There's no question Priscilla is OP, it just that there's no reasonable outcome from this that would be to my liking. ' I'll let you live for now to kill me later ' scenario is just tired cliche. Prisilla would smash everything there with ease, like she toyed with both Alicia and Beth at the same time.

10% of Teresa's powers were enough to handle near-Awakened Priscilla, it's not as if the author couldn't narrate it in a manner that is fitting for the dormant power lying in Clare's body. Or something. If there's such a thing.

OK Priscilla is a tad OP (and i mean alot actually)
That quick sword/mirage should of at least scratched her because this is getting to the point of bleach/naruto-esq super power increase to beat the villian. I mean I guess we still have Claire release and Cassandra is in fact stronger then all of our heroes so she will hopefully at least force Priscilla into her awakened form (although we should remember that her awakened form is not in theory stronger, it just has a different fighting style so this human form could infact be on level or stronger when she doesn't hold back)

Yup, they're fighting to survive alright. I hope Claire can land a blow against Priscilla soon as this fight seems to be one-sided so far. Basically as some others have said, she is OP but I think the tide of the fight might turn a little maybe later on.

I can accept that Priscilla is by far the most powerful being, but by this point Clare should at least be able to hit her. She's the Frankenstein of Claymores for crying out loud.

In the past Priscilla effortlessly one-rounded Ilene (with equal or better Quicksword) and Rigardo (who was faster than Miria) so it should be no surprise that even in her human form she was able to at least evade such attack.

No, her awakened form is stronger, it simply comes with a specific weakness (or more like lack of specific strength) that only Riful 2.0 merged with Destroyer was able to exploit. It is possible that with Priscilla assuming her awakened form Clare will be able to utilize her youki-reading more efficiently on her but I doubt it will be enough to offset awakened Priscilla crazy regeneration/shapeshifting powers.

On a side note - I understand Clare shock in the current situation (with everyone including Raki at the verge of dying) but the explanation that the shock came from realizing the gap in power between her and Priscilla is simply odd - Clare fought Priscilla just recently and she saw and experienced her power very clearly. It is even stranger since for her, trapped in the cocoon along with Pris, that fight was the last memory before the current events in and around Rabona, for her there was nothing in between that could warrant her expecting a different outcome.

Her awakened form is stronger in terms of versatility and regeneration, but from what we've seen so far, her human form is far better in terms of the techniques she uses. Either way Claire has the genes of at least three of the most powerful fighters in the story inside of her, she should be more than capable of matching Pricilla if she were to awaken fully.

If the story takes the "Fully awakened" route, her ability to reseal her form should come in handy for controlling her mind in that state which might leat to a tragedy ending, or they could go a completely different route and make raki the new lead character and have claire be the new antagonist.he's already shown that he can resist multiple forms of youki, and I for one want to see him become a true badass that's able to take on awakened beings. he's already strong, but If the story is going to continue with him in it, he'll need a lot more power than he has now.

But if it doesn't take that route, and it only goes "Half Awakened" or less then there's little to no chance of this fight being the one that Pricilla loses. unless we're about to lose a ton of main characters.
yep. I Have no idea what I'm doing, but I enjoy my life all the more because of it.

Deneve is really annoying being the exposition character, like she knows every damn thing that goes on in the world. The realization that Clare came to should've been in her own thoughts, not from Deneve's words.

I can't see the fight ending in a satisfying way at this point. Priscilla is unbeatable, at least when it comes to a power struggle.

To me it looks more like she just never bothered with techniques in her awakened form because she was so OP that she didn't have any need for them.

If she could use full genetic potential inside her then she would need nothing more than Teresa flesh and blood, unfortunately for her she is neither a Zerg nor a Tyranid and her options are far more limited...

For a human he is already a very powerful badass (quite possibly The strongest human in the story) and he can't become any stronger without changing into something that isn't human. I don't really want it to go into that territory though, him gaining some quick power-up would go against the laws of the setting and degrade the story into a different kind of shounen. Unless he would become a warrior only to awaken in the end but somehow I don't see that coming.

You might be right on that, but I get the feeling there's something else to it, otherwise she could have just pulled her sword out of herself without having to go through the trouble of taking human form and still have beaten Riful 2.0.

My logic on this assumption is that she's probably never actually tried to tap into Theresa's strength on purpose yet. it took her this long to use the #2 sword arm & Techniques more than once or twice per day without losing control of her arm, and she's still not on the level of the original, so I get the feeling that in order for her to tap into Theresa's actual genes, she'd have to go through something similar to another partial awakening. I'm probably wrong, but It just feels like it would be possible, not to mention it would be less of a pull than most other scenarios I can think of.

I agree with that, and I hope ne never actually has to change since he's already strong enough to take down average youma without any real trouble.

That's also why I doubt think this story'll take the "Claire fully awakens" route, since the only real ways I can see to resolve it without going full tragedy would be using plothax, and this author doesn't really do that too often.
yep. I Have no idea what I'm doing, but I enjoy my life all the more because of it.

A fight with Riful 2.0 was the only instance when her awakened form was not of any help to her so she could just as well have some fun in her human form (and go fully nude while at it).

This does make sense. In my opinion a middle of the fight with Priscilla is a really bad time for figuring out (not to mention mastering) new tricks, but then again Priscilla herself is likely to react with curiosity and expectation to it so Clare may get some extra time (and maybe even advice on how to pull it off) from her.

so while using sword in human form, Priscilla is still stronger than everyone there, so far nobody even scratch her...

I see what you mean, but this manga artist doesn't usually do these kinds of things (form changes) without either a good reason, or a explanation. and since Pricilla could have just fought in her regular form by just pulling out that sword, I get the feeling there might still be something we're all missing, or something more to her 'human' form that'll occur within the next few chapters or so.
yep. I Have no idea what I'm doing, but I enjoy my life all the more because of it.

I agree. Priscilla has become an insanely OP character.

I'm going to return and save everyone from getting their ass kicked by Priscilla. She even said that Clare still can't use the Quicksword technique as effectively as I can: http://i.imgur.com/nVdCwsk.png

dude...so after all the training, and new techniques and experiences, and time that passed, clare and her fellow claymores together cannot even land a scratch on priscilla when she's only using the strength of how she was as a claymore.

Not even Riful 2.0 could defeat her.

I think the only way anyone could possibly defeat her is with her emotions....like Raki, maybe, since she left him alive.

Still, she's way too powerful.
