I thought the animation did take a hit as well, but it was a great episode none the less.


My thoughts equate to a big ditto.

i hope that raki doesn't show up for the next 10 episodes! :D


Honestly, I kinda agree. I hope the story follows Clare and then he shows up later after he's strong enough to be cool, or at least useful.

And does Clare have a nickname yet? Clare of the Bedroom Eyes, perhaps? ;)

well for one, Clare has to bend too far down for a classic relationship so it looks awkward for now but Clare won't age but Raki still can, Sakura hates Naruto and likes Sasuke, Naruto + Hinata are far more likely match and rookia is spelled Rukia.

That was a effed up ep, I really like the design for the new awakened when she tranformed. Really creepy. I didn't so much hate Ophelia, I just watched in awe at how insane and awesome this ep was. If Clare doesn't realize after all this that the organization is trying to kill her, then she is as dense as they come.

Orphellia is so damm crazy!!!!! i love to see her maniac smile and her psychotic face, her chase for Clare and her bloodlust.
About the kiss: unexpected, she is really starting to like Raki (but both will suffer, as the masked man said, monsters and humans can't be toghether)

I really can't stand Raki either. Every time he says, "I'm gonna protect you!" and disobeys her, I want to smack the kid! I don't understand Clare's taste in guys...

This episode irritated me mostly. I'm actually quite sick of the claymore organization. I guess they'll screw with their claymore until doomsday. That kiss was nice but I so wanted to take Raki's place (minus the whining).
Such junk...

Nice one, i like it. Ophelia, and Clare fighting scenes kickass. Though Ophelia was
wayy too obsessed in killing awakened being, crazy one. And Raki needs to be
stronger, he's always crying.

Ways to convince someone of the other gender to walk away :
1) Try to convince with words, but fail, resort to 2)
2) Kiss , then tell them again, and watch them go away

Otherwise, anyone know what the rank of that Awakened Being was?

I though they had more of an onee-sama and little brother relationship but considering Clare never really lived a normal life what the hell...

The best episode so far in my opinion. I loved all the twists and turnabouts of events. It was nice to see how ambitious Raki can be.

Ophelia is one great villain! She sure makes me thrilled but also makes my blood boil at the same time.

Ophelia is a brutal bitch, but don't get me wrong - it's not that I hate her or something. You can't really hate someone for having a character &__& Still, she's getting in the way and it's easy for anyone to dislike her(even me) - but you should learn to make one character's viewpoint your own and then look at the scene again. People do this often but usually only when it comes down to main characters or characters they find to resemble their very own selves :D

I'm sure Raki is gonna become one hell of a bastard one day :evil:

Awsome episode, Ophelia ftw.
And a kiss between Clare and Raki, anyone else noticed that Clare's lips changed in the scene after? =o
I felt kinda bad for the awakened too, since she had such a cute voice.
Looking forward to next week =)

yes and did anyone else notice raki was crying into his cuts... that would hurt

Good episode. Orphelia & her logic ftw. I think if she would kill Raki she would get punished since i feel like their superiors would find it out. just get the feeling their almighty and have something like a spy keeping watch while they do their jobs, but like i said - just my feeling.
pretty random and unexpected kiss. thought i did wish for any kind of romance between Clare and Raki i actually didn't think it would happen. seems like Clare is slowly getting back her self from when she was with Teresa (prior to her death).
somehow i also think Raki is going to get incredibly strong -- heck maybe even a male Claymore (though they stopped making them cause they get to their limit to easily). i suspect a time lapse after we see the battle between Orphelia and Clare

Dont get me wrong, I really liked this episode and I ship ClarexRaki so hard, but I dont think the plot was ready for this kind of development. Clare has not really shown as much that she cared for Raki in that way besides the occasional distressed face when he gets hurt, instead choosing several times to mention that she did not care for him and was only doing what was best for her. I always saw them as having a big sis/little bro relationship, but I was secretly hoping something like this kiss would happen. As for people who thought the quality dropped, I would like to point out that stiff animations are one of the many facets of this show. Lots of still scenes with lines to show speed of fighters and their strikes against each other, instead of fast changing camera angles like what is seen in Shingeki no Kyojin and other higher budgeted shows. The way claymores walk in general put this show second only to Gantz in terms of stiff animations. the only difference between the two is that this is claymore's style, whereas in Gantz it is only an excuse. All in all, good episode, enjoyed Ophelia/want to see more of her (as well as find out how she managed to get away with all the sensless killing she does, while Teresa gets caught)

Episode was frickin awesome. I was expecting the kiss to be on the cheek, but damn, I'm not complaining.

I really love how they've portrayed Raki in the anime.

There are SO many animes out there that have a character like Raki that becomes so annoying. They always bitch out how weak they are and they always get their friends into trouble just because they want to be useful.

But Raki is different, he tries to be helpful, but I never got the feeling that he was annoying or trying to hard to be a savior.

He's not to whiny, but not to silent either, he's just right! Let's keep him that way!

I don't like Raki. At all.

Maybe this is because I'm a die hard romantic, but I feel like nothing could ever come close to the love Clare and Teresa had. Their relationship was so much more sincere. I don't understand Raki's feelings. He's still a kid, really immature.

Maybe it's different in the manga I don't know...
