Clare is dead end of Claymore period... or not , can't wait to see the next episode because this was awesome.
Raki could be a great actor like ... Clare .

There is nothing that it overlooks. If this eye cannot see a thing, then it does not exist. That is the assumption under which I have always fought. What is this "heart"?

Why the fk does she keep saving them? Didn't she say she wouldn't save anyone, and wouldn't even step in if Raki got beat up by those guards? Lol
Yeah I cringed. It's one of those moments to show the guards "Oh so she is willing to sacrifice herself for us how wrong were we to treat her so poorly before".

I really dig the soundtrack they have, I loved Clare's outfit and weapons this episode. I love when she just zoomed past the guards going into the cathedral i thought it was kind of funny.

Clare looks really lovely with her normal eyes. There's a certain charm to her stoicism, she may be expressionless but she's not emotionless. As for the yoma, I think that it's hiding in the crypts. It's the perfect hiding spot for someone who doesn't want to leave the cathedral and no one would suspect a corpse.

It does seem a little out of character that Clare would protect those knights considering how calculated she's been up until now. My guess is Raki is influencing her and slowly thawing her human heart.

I wasn't sure about this show after the first two episodes, so I took a break, played some Street Fighter 5 and returned for the third one and I gotta say... that one hooked me. Although the first two made a solid base for the story, they did not really engage me too much.
And much of it was kinda Raki's perspective on the subject at hand.

NOW we get to see more of Clare, the conflict on the roof with the knights, and all that roof jumping, the stealthy spy mission, the church going against their convictions to save their butts... there was a lot to love.

A great balance of story and action, although I get the feeling that behind the beautiful art, the animation is rather cheap with lots of camera movement through static landscapes and suggested movement rather than fully animated movement.

After two episodes I thought I would drop it soon, giving it a rating of Average (5), but now I rate it overall a Good (7) and I hope that digit will rise some more after tonights batch of episodes.

Why does it start off with Clair naked in front of that creepy dude? ugg he's bad news
with her fighting in that sexy outfit it kinda gave off a magical girl type feel. Anyone else agree?

I just ... I dont even know what to say, epic episode.
Clare's is obviously going to be fine but ... this Yoma is strong AF.

Wonder if they're going to find the Yoma in daylight by seeing who's lost their eye or has a cut in his/her arm. - Probably not because they can regenerate, at least I assume by looking at Clare.

I laughed so hard when I realized she asked a priest to take care of a young boy if she were to die.

Episode 3 and Clare is already contradicting her principles. Why would you put your life at risk to protect the guys who tried to kill you just minutes ago...?

I wish claymores used more types of weapons tbh, i know this is years later, but im watching the anime for the first time because i've finished the manga years ago but forgot everything.


its sad that after this short arc she goes back to the super boring white costume and claymore,

it would be interesting seeing more spears used.

Guards, see police, not actually protecting people and just getting in the way... A tale as old as time.
