I just watched the entirety of the series. Overall, I thought it was alright, however, if there is not going to be a season 2, then I’m going to have to read the manga. Why? Because there is no closure to the series whatsoever and they made it this “happily ever after” and just ended it.

Don’t get me wrong, up until the fight with Priscilla it was actually pretty good. After that I was confused and some of the characters personalities, Raki’s for example, just bugged me.

So read the manga first, then watch it to see which would be better…

Honestly, I expected it to suck too at first. Still I gave it a try. I give everything a try, really… It turned out to be amazing! I’m stalled at the halfway point though, because it’s just so tragic, and I was in a bad depressive episode. ;_; When I’m emotionally messed up like that, I have to immerse myself in HAPPY shows. I was just surprised at how deep Claymore turned out to be.

Need season 2 NOW! This is definitely one of the best animes with TOP QUALITY graphics.

My first impression of this anime was just like yours,
after the first few episodes i was hooked! I’ve realised that the story was not just about blonde girls killing monsters but that’s a deeper meaning to it. The music and sound effects were superb and the episodes were engaging, suspenseful and action packed.

Even though the plot did change from the manga since the 25th episode onwards, it was still good unlike all the other anime I’ve seen where the anime changes from the manga and completely sucks from that point onwards.

The graphics in the anime were actually better than the manga and usually it’s the otehr way around. So i recommend people start off with the anime since it skips most of the boring bits at the start of the manga.

CLAYMORE IS ONE OF THE HOTTEST ANIMES OF 2007 AND RATINGS JUST KEEP GETTING HIGHER AND HIGHER, IT’S A BIG LOSS IF YOU DON’T WATCH IT!

note: not recommended for those who dislike gore. This anime has quite alotta gore in it.

Here’s something I learned with watching anime or any other film or movie out there: NEVER judge anything by your 1st impression. Give it a 2nd, a 3rd, a 4th – hell, even a 10th chance – THEN feel free to ignore it. ^^

If you know anything about Cinema or film, you’ll appreciate this series quite a bit. It has a lot of details in the animation. If you know anything about lighting, composition, and the many other aspects of film, you’ll like this.

I will definitely agree I was recommended to watch this show by a friend. It starts off way to slow but does a 360 and is one of the hottest animes out. Please check this out it is that offical
