"A young boy was found dead in the village , this is the 6 time this has happened"
Me : damn they really hate this boy lol
They must be killing kenny from southpark 🤣
I think they like him too much... since they refuse to bury him and use his body like an easter egg...
Ironically enough... this happens alot in this story
@@jasonjr376 i came here to write the same dude, lol
@@jasonjr376 (..x.5..(.
I actually love the fact that Teresa was the one to end it all. Her characterization didn't go to waste. All that build up payed super well!
Finish Claymore in one sitting. I think the writing is super, making both the character arc of Clair and Teresa not feel cheap. Teresa original awakened form will not be that perfect and beautiful. Like the manga said, her form is resemble the twin goddesses, a combination of her strength and Clair will power. This for me is such a cool detail, because like you mention the character arc of Teresa never goes to waste but we don’t abandon Clair contributions throughout the story either.
@@thuhuong8838 damn how long did it take to read it all? It took me 2 months to finish this series.
@@user-eg7en4cy2i yesterday saturday time, i read it all from 7am to 8pm...
it was quite suddently. even paying attention how the the fuck was teresa ressurected? o.0
They ruined the story
All these characters are godly strong and then you realize Teresa was always stronger
Facts
I love how consistent the portrayal of her was. At base she was stronger than 2-5 of her generation combined and stronger than 80%+ Priscilla and pseudo Abyssal One Rosemary with a mere 10% of her power.
In the context of the story, Claire turning into Teresa and subsequently awakening to beat the vastly overpowered Priscilla was great writing and did not feel cheap. It's one of the only manga that I've read that ended in a cathartic way
Teresa just broken lol I love her character. Which we could've seen the dragonkin
Theresa was god mode
Teresa is the end-game of Half-Awakeneds: able to Awaken at will and back, while remaining "human" (human side/flesh ruling over yoma side/flesh), that's how she is god, but why she is god, is that she bears the greatest suffering and mental trauma (she was betrayed by those that she trusted the most and she absolutely loved being human too, loved her black hair and her black eyes... yes, WTF, black eyes as a human, lol, Teresa HATES not only being a Claymore but being god, she just wanted to live a normal human life, which shows in/with her wishing that upon/for Clare as well, thinking that Clare and everyone must feel the same as her, but she was so very wrong about Clare, lol), which such emotions, is the source of both a Claymore's power level and an Awakened's power level
Clare too, has such potential as well (she's already close to being able to Awaken at will, while remaining in full control), especially being unique, in that she's 3/4 human and 1/4 yoma
and these two Claymores with such god ability/potential, along with their connection to each other (both directly-physically with Teresa preserved within Clare until Teresa commits suicide after killing Awakened Priscilla, wanting Clare to have her own body and mind, not be sharing it with her-Teresa, in hopes that eventually Clare will move on from herself-Teresa) and every/all other such other types of connections to each other of course), is the Legend of the Twin Goddesses of Love, the ULTIMATE BEING/WEAPON, though we don't get to see it (Clare and Teresa both active at the same time, Awakening together in the Twin Goddess of Love, as it is only Teresa, who takes control and kills Awakened Priscilla and then commits suicide, sadly. We had Goddess Teresa and Goddess Clare of legend, but never got to see them as the Twin Goddesses of Love, sighs.
I believe if all claymore fans rally, we can do something to bring claymore back to anime. i've never been able to get over this manga.
We need to bruh i swear but how
fr bro. i ask everyone ik to read claymore and the one's that do, always like it. but i can only do as much as a person.
i feel that the whole fandom should do smth cause this show has sooo much potential still
You are 100% right bro. We should do something!
We can do something we gotta spam them of course.:)
Who should we contact on twitter?
I'm so happy Claymore is getting some love. I think it deserves a unique place at the top tier of Japanese Medieval fantasy. Berserk & Soulsborne have ridicuolus levels of painful tragedy and atmosphere. The best Ghibli films, BOTW and the Team Ico games have a meditative quality to them that pairs well with their themes of natural harmony. While others like OOT and MM are strongly abusurdist. All others more or less fit into these categories without being as good.
What Claymore lacks in all these categories makes up for in a more uniquely chilled and stoic vibe. It's well made with great characters to just hang out with for hours and resonant psychological and emoitonal themes. There's nothing else quite like Claymore.
Witcher + Berserk = Claymore
Star Wars + Christianity + Beowulf + Mary Shelley's Frankenstein = Claymore
(Claymore is a literature masterpiece, there's so much literary depth to it, far beyond it's also very deep surface world content, lol)
I agree
I can't believe it ended with so much more story it can tell. Everything takes place on an island that is basically a testing ground for biological weapons. If the swords are technology (they can cut through anything) and the organization had knowledge of advanced genetic engineering and biology) that means that off the island it could potentially be futuristic sci fi and that the island was intentionally made to be less modern and more feudal
When I was a kid I was thinking that what if Claymore and Attack on Titan was on the same universe. Like the enemy they were referring to was Titans lol.
Fr i wanted to know more about the main land where the dragon decedents or whatever and the others mfs were fighting. But i think the remaining claymores would just have wanted to settle down and live our the rest of their lives in peace considering everything they’ve been through. Would’ve been cool if we got a bit more regarding the mainland but i couldnt be more happy the way it ended
I think the author retconneed that? I also feel / think the same as you.. I feel like they had so much story to tell but nope.
The author stated he didn't want to expand the story to the other island because it felt unnecessary and that he didn't like how other authors, if they do expand their stories to a broader picture, always try to involve their main characters in everything that's going on. He wasn't a fan of that. His idea was the Claymores and their fight against the organization, they didn't care what was happening on the other island. They just wanted to fix their lives and the lives of the people of the island. And they did it, so the author got what he intended to do.
@@natasanj6472would’ve been cool to see an arc where the country/kingdom that managed the Organization invaded the Island to take back what’s « theirs » / get back at the Claymores who destroyed their testing ground experimentations. Feels like even if they could momentarily live normal lives, the Claymores would be living with a cloud over their heads, never knowing when their battle earned peace will be shattered.
At least with such an ark it could end with the Claymores knowing that there is nothing more that could potentially stand in their way, focussing on bettering the lives of the people.
Monster slaying expert, cat eyes, strong, God like reflexes, went through a transform rituals at young age.....wait a minute
Which came first, The Witcher or Claymore? I'm very curious now.
@@secretroom8839 the Witcher by a wide margin
Like almost 10 years.
In Geralt's voice " Something seems off here"
I thought you were talking about Berserk lol
@@Bestialce2007 basically a women mix version of both
To think that Miria walked solo against the organization and succeeded in bringing all claymores to her side without saying anything. BEST LEADER 🔥 sends chills through me!!!
I NEEED THE ANIME TO RETURN ASAP!!!!!
For real, if they can wrap up the series that’d be A1
They'll never do it, but I wish they'd fix the ending. I actually bought all the manga because I was so frustrated at the end of the anime.

@@Spacehog1981 Yes! I also read the whole manga series because the ending of the anime just felt wrong.
Btw. - It was a great anime except for the last episodes, which were different from the manga. Maybe that was the reason why I didn't like the anime-ending... v(*~*)v
@@mariak2388 100% agree, well said!
Claymore is a great example of how to write a fully female lead series right. Every single female characters are very well written to the point that despite wearing the same uniform, using the same gears and have the same hair color, I have no problem recognize them from one an other, even with character with very similar hair like Helen and Clare. Really hope that they reboot the series again and have Madhouse gave the series another shot, despite the Anime flaws, what it does very well is capturing the atmosphere of thr manga very well.
Also Galatea best girl.
A Claymore "Sisterhood" remake could be big. We've been begging for it for a long time. They could however just start from the canon 7 year time skip instead of continuing the mangled ending of the anime.
It was because the anime was catching up to the manga when it aired so they had to do an alternate ending.
Damn, this guy dropped another bomb, after the berserk timeline. ❤
Its really more like the Witcher series. Compared to berserk, this is a wet turd. Maybe the manga
@@charless1145 bruh, you did not just call Claymore "a wet turd"
Like, I get it, Berserk is good, but do you really gotta put down other works because you think Berserk is the best?
I watched claymore anime back then and I was satisfied with the ending but watching this video makes me wanna read the manga and hope that someday it will get a remake instead
💚
I hope it does. Claymore is my favorite manga of all time, and it would be amazing to see.
A remaster would be very popular!
@@vingram100 You meant a remake, as in adapting the entire manga from the beginning.
This one of the best manga I have ever read. The story telling was phenomenal and I loved how the Organization fell to pieces in all the chaos later on. Still would have loved to see what's actually happening in the continent wars because it seems like what where were seeing was pretty tame compared to that.
I just realized, Claymore is very similar to if you mix Berserk with The Witcher.
I was literally just thinking this. 'Hero' characters that aren't exactly treated well. The strange eyes, monster hunters.
Ahem, if I may,
tOss A cOIn tO YOUr wItchEr!,!,!,, Oh vAllEY Of plEntY, Oh vAllEY Of plE-
A lot people call Claymore "Berserk's Little Sister"
I can't move on from this manga! It will always be my favorite 😭 The anime would have been epic if they had followed the manga from start to finish
Berserk😊
@@turtleanton6539 Berserk is great but wont ever get an ending.
Claymore is such a great series. It has the usual gritty fantasy stuff, but also a lot of intrigue and mystery plot underneath it all.
I have been meaning to read claymore again recently and I feel like watching this was enough to refresh me on how rad claymore is! Good job!
Thanks, bro!
Cassandra the doost-etter, lol. I once told a lad during a foot race, ett my doost.
Omg I can't believe there are people who are still talking about this anime. The one clip I saw of the anime 10 years ago had burned into my child brain and I had been captivated by it ever since. Literally my most favorite manga of all time, a shame they didn't properly finish the anime.
This is amazing, please make more timelines of other mangas
One of the coolest moments is when all the awakened being are sitting around at the end waiting to watch.
Thank you! I'm glad someone's talking about Claymore
I won't be watching this one as I haven't completed Claymore yet. However I would like to congratulate you on the success of the Berserk timeline video, keep up the great work!
Thanks, bro! I appreciate the continued support, especially the funny comments.
I never finished claymore, I think I was at the very end but the author just didnt want to continue it and ended it asap from what I understand. There was even some hints that this was on some experimental land while a real battle was going on.. etc.. but then he didnt continue on that at all.
@emil gebl it was never about that. The series is named Claymore for a reason. Its about the warriors who the common people call Claymore and the Organization that they belong to. All that other stuff is just context for the larger world.
Teresa mistakingly lowered her yoki powers. Just before she was killed her eye color went from gold (10%-20%) of her power back to Silver ( Base). Priscilla was using well over 80% of her yoki power to keep up with Teresa, who used nowhere near that level. As a result Teresa couldn't see the attack, in base and fell to Priscilla
Imo she was simply caught off guard due to being foolish enough to not stay focused on priscilla. Priscilla SLOWLY reached for the sword before she swung it full force. Idk how the heck teresa didn't see that BEFORE she grabbed the wep lol. Only explanation is she let her guard down way too much.
@@azuredream9032 Yea, she lowered her guard.. Her eyes went from "Gold" to "Silver".
Having just started watching the anime, Teresa died because she was compassionate. Clare humanised her, and made her much more maternal and caring. She believed priscilla wanted to die - she was always intent on killing her. In the end her humanity killed her.
We need to do something to bring this anime back. Real talk, I need another season and a proper ending.
I would pay stupid amounts of money to watch the rest of the story, especially as the anime ending is so weak. I was livid when I read the storyline of the manga and found out what we missed out on. Bring back Claymore!
@@Mareyy666 if you read the manga full, Teresa is the final awakening of Clare, she will beat Priscilla 1 hit to dust
@@pinoyrealm4891 I have read the manga, lots of people haven't finished it though so no need to spoil it
@@pinoyrealm4891akala ko nga dati ung awakening form nia ulit...pero c teresa pla n may pakpak n angel kgya s nsa town xa n nakita nia ung statue ng twin sister n c teresa/ clare
My perfect wish for this series being revived again:
+ Anime Claymore Remake by Ufotable Studio.
+ Live Action Adaptation (HBO/Netflix/Amazon).
+ Video game franchise developed by Platinum game.
Especially for Netflix Live Action, since this is like Grim Dark Fantasy show with 90% of female casts. An actual great story & badass female characters.
Live action for a grim fantasy tends to suck though
Remake it true to the story not whatever they ended up doing with it cause it sucked and no live action name one that hasn't sucked donkey balz
THIS made me feel so complete. Thank you SO much for taking the time to make and voice this priceless and timeless video for me and my childhood self ❤
Just remember, Claymore started later, but at least finished.
Im just hoping we get 1 panel of Berserk this year. Eventually my great grandchild can give me the complete Berserk via a quantum entanglement device.
Here I am being sad each time i see an old enthusiastic Berserk comment now. Fuck man, his death hits hard.
@@airone7794 same it was the hardest hit for me during this quarantine, cause I know that no one else could even try to finish it for him (if that would even be something he would’ve wanted) it’s not even story wise it’s just his art, I firmly believe no one could make beautiful panels, like the one with wounded guts resting on the boat window without his prosthetic hand, the way he did
@@AverageAwesomeDudeDuranki being drawn by his assistants is quite impressive but I have to agree.
F
Big F
Everytime Claire has flashbacks of Teresa being beheaded, I just cant stop my eyes getting into tears, as she went all through this trials to avenge her IDOL. And it even made me burst into tears when I realized that Teresa was the Final Awakening of Claire, I just caaaaanttt,, I LOVE THIS MANGA SO MUCH that even when I sleep I still imagine Teresa & Clare beating PRISCILLA to DUST
I like how the powerscaling goes
"You're so powerful clare"
To
"You're weak af clare"
To
"No no You're powerful clare"
To
"You're the WEAKEST clare so WEAK"
back to
"OK so no one else could be as powerful as 'clare' "
That was by far the most frustrating part of the story lol

Thank you so much for creating this video. Claymore is a series/manga that I hold near to my heart and to see so much love and recognition these days! Great video.
This was one of the first Manga I completed when I got into anime. I always recommend it. I was like 13/14 years old reading this. Shit had my mind blown.
at 56:55 the narrator says 'Doo-steader' for Cassandra's epithet, and I nearly lost my shit laughing. It's Dust Eater.
I’ve been so hype for this!!! Thank you!
Aye!!
Claymore has one of the best monster designs in anime. Awakened beings are scary yet regal and beautiful at the same time. Isley, Roxanne, Miata, Hysteria, The Destroyer etc.
Your video came on randomly. Claymore is my favourite manga it’s the only series I own all the books for, I so badly wanted to reread it again but have found no time due to deadlines. So thank you for making this.
How fitting that this is uploaded and recommended to me as I've just started reading Claymore a couple weeks ago.
56:52 Wait wat?!? Cassandra the “Doosetetter”, some of your pronunciations bothered me a little but that’s where I draw the line. Cassandra the Dusteater ( dust eater). Other than that absolute great video
same lol
😂😂 this is like ASOIAF where many people thought damphair was spelt dam-ph-ir instead of damp hair
@@Magicalnora yeah it bothered me a lot, especially with the audiobooks cause he started off saying it right, but between books it went back to that damfair nonsense. It sounds like ye olde guy talk
“ didst ye see that fair maiden good sir?”
“Nay friend, I did not. How fair was she?”
“Damn fair, my good man. Damn fair”
it bothered me too..
what a weirdo
you expect ppl to pronounce every word of evey language perfectly?
I've always wanted this, just watched the Claymore amine for the 1st time last month & there was too much missing.
I'm so glad you did a timeline for Claymore. This was always one of my favorite mangas after Berserk. Thanks, man.
Edit: This comment was actually meant for a different channel. I have no idea how it ended up here.
Man your content is actually insane, watched both this and the berserk story and absolutely loved it. Keep up the good work and hope to see more videos like this in the future
I'm a physical collector w/many amazing anime in my collection, but Claymore is definitely in my top 5. It has tremendous charm and, though many will vehemently disagree, I prefer it over Berserk.
The overall premise is weaker than Berserk but the execution is definitely better.
Plus I'm pretty sure that the author of Berserk wrote himself into a corner, there was no fking way that Guts was gonna beat the Godhand without becoming some sort of God demon himself or something lmao.
@@Trollamollex Guts will be able to beat the Godhand with the right usage of the Berserker Armor. Skull Knight had already killed the previous 4 members of the Godhand so it's possible for Guts to finish what Skull Knight started.
This is the best video i've seen in a long time. Good work my man.
I remember reading the first two volumes and loving it, this is bringing back so many memories.
I'm REALLY loving these timelines, please keep it up.
I know it's not the same style, but Shaman King would be rad
god Claymore will forever stay as my fav manga, it's been so long and I still feel the same excitement as if I read it for the first time
damn this has to be the work of god cuz i just finished the anime yesterday and was really sad cuz how hard they blueballed me and then here i see that u have made the entire timeline video and after watching it im smiliing like i have been completed its soo weird.
now do dead man wonderland next :DDD PLZ PLZ PLZ !!!
The fact this isnt animated to finale is a crime
I agree
@@bendavid2320 wish we had some kindve petition or something for it to get done
@@jefferyflood atleast we can read this HunterxHunter and Berserk I feel like I’m never going to know how it ends
@@bendavid2320 still havent gotten too into berserk yet but I basically know the story and I find it crazy how we still might not ever see it finished but I think the author at least made sure to finish the story just in case he passed away. So maybe it will still be finished. Just like the story of Hunter x Hunter... Truth be told the longer togashi takes the better in some ways cause he can then nourish his product and mold it to perfection. Also I think it's a fact that he finished the story just as a contingency. For some reason he just thinks he needs to be the one to do everything entirely and I don't he understand how much more he can get done if other people are taking the reigns first and foremost so he can get his health together
@@bendavid2320 but ultimately your right we can definitely read claymore. Yet two of the greatest manga of all time are still not finished almost 30 years in
Claymore has my favourites cast out of all the manga I’ve seen. The author did such a good job writing characters whose motive are counter to our protagonist, but had all their lore and are instinctively interesting from their intro. My top 10 were:
1. Teresa
2. Galatea
3. Rafaela
4. Cassandra
5. Miria
6. Riful
7. Hysteria
8. Ophelia
9. Clare
10. Irene
Teresa and Galatea are a treat. The mystery Rafaela was very intriguing top that with the dynamic with her sister. Miria is a badass. Riful was very logical more reasonable than Priscilla for a abyss one. I freaking adore Cassandra, very nasty and bizzare for her technique. Ophelia had the best awakening form. Clare is awesome. And Irene was my ace!
Adored all of them. Damn have to reread some times lol
This is a solid top 10!
I would rank Irene higher than Ophelia and Hysteria closer to Miria.
Otherwise, this is pretty accurate.
Glad to see Teresa being number 1. She's not only OP but her character arc is incredible.
@@LaMarco0 Yeah, Ilena (Irene) is higher than Ophelia for sure.
bro these timeline videos are literally masterpieces your voice is perfect for it please do more. If i can recommend a manga to do please can you do Blame!
Madhouse did a good job back then but we srsly need a remake to give the series the ending it deserves.
thank you. I've gone years without ever knowing how it ended. A part of me still has hope that some studio will pick it up eventually.
Smashed the like button before video even started. Already know you deserve it
What I like about claymore is that it doesn’t need to be grotesque to carry on the story of alliance, evil, passion, and revenge
i missed this anime and Teresa of Faint smile.
Now this is a slept on channel
I’ve watched the anime like three times but had no idea it got even better after the anime ended. They really need to redo the first season and then complete the story from there.
56:52 "casandra the doostetter" lmao
I watched the 2007 anime as one of my first Anime, did not know that claymore ended like this, more holesome then i thought :)
These are the legendary kind of videos that are putting in the lords work
my wife and i just finished watching Claymore. We need a season 2. I think Mad House did a great job
oh ive been waiting for this video for some time, thx a lot!! im gonna enjoy this one very much!! :) (Loved so much the Berserk story line)
Alaynaaaaa, Priscillaaaaaa, Yumaaaaa, Teresaaaaaa.. i love syllables ending with aaaaaa
Aaaaaa
Aaaaaa
Aaaaaaa
THAT was excatly what i wanted man !!!! THANKS!!!!
For such kind of work, I always hit like before hitting the play button
I just finished watching the anime and i known im late but im so glad to have found out of claymore it really needs to continue!
Pls do read the manga. It's far more awesome after the Battle in Pieta
Thank you i love claymore
I just wished the Dubb was longer, great store, plot twists all over, and just a instant cult classic.
Ty, subbed your content is amazing
Yes for a Claymore remake. Yes? There are lots of great animators who can pull this off superbly and incredibly. ❤
Since Claire's awakening is so unique does that mean that Yoki energy permanently taints human flesh and creates a new type of power? But it's weird its like you're literally just turning into the creature you took flesh from so how do they get stronger? How strong was Teresa to be able to without contest take out awakened beings like nothing and whos guts did she recieve to make her that powerful? Everything about Claire and Teresa with the goddess folklore and resulting in the perfect fusion feels too perfect to be a coincidence in world
They run a myriad of painful implantation s into a stomata on their abdomen. They take different tissue parts from different parts of the dragon they captured off the battlefield. The parts aren’t from a Yoma
All Claymore's are embedded with half Yoma flesh and blood. The only exception is Clare who has embedded Teresa's flesh and blood which is why she's the weakest Claymore as she only has a quarter Yoma flesh and blood.
claymore.fandom.com/wiki/Claymore
emotions (trauma / mentally f'ked up / etc) is what determines a Claymore's and Awakened's base power levels
so the most powerful, are the most f'ked up:
Rank SSS: Teresa (she's the most f'ked up of all)
Rank SS: Awakened Priscilla
Rank S: Rafaela (we never learn her backstory, we have no idea what happened to her to cause her to be so powerful. Remember, Rafaela was already this powerful long before the "Soul Link Failure" ever occurred. The one doing the Soul Link, is the more powerful one: Rafaela and Beth, whereas the one doing the Awakening, is the weaker one: Luciela and Alicia)
Rank S (or between Rank S and Rank SS): Clare (but only at the near end of the manga, but she's been rising up in power level the whole time, Partially Awakened Clare is clearly a rank 1, easily pwning Awakened Rigardo, and generally doing decent against Abyssals too, though with Riful, she wasn't trying to kill Clare, though Clare wasn't fighting at her full potential either, of course)
--------------
aside from base power level from one's emotions at Claymor'ization (becoming a Claymore) and Awakening (becoming an Awakened):
you got the end-game of Half-Awakeneds: Teresa (and potentially Clare), able to Awaken and de-Awaken at will, while staying in total control. Rubel knowing about Half-Awakens is a very very very very very bad thing... lol
basic Half-Awakening:
it raises the limit from 80% to 90% (if not 100% = end-game Half-Awakeneds)
also, yoma powers/abilities and yoki abiltiies, require less yoki release to do them (let's say, Helen's Arm Stretching should be at least 50% Yoki Release: the yoma takes over the body, but as a Half-Awaken, Helen can now do her Arm Stretching at only 30% Yoki Release: yoma takes over their face/head, which allows them to do the ability more often, it doesn't tire them out so quickly, it's less strain on their bodies/minds, and also, when they do that ability at HIGH Yoki Release, it's power/ability sky rockets as well too, it's just far more powerful than when they were Claymores. Or, take Miria's Phantom Step, which as a Claymore required 70% Yoki Release bursts, but now as a Half-Awakened, it only requires let's say, 50% yoki Release Bursts, but now imagine Half-Awakened Miria doing the Phantom Step back at 70% Yoki Release, she's going to be a lot faster than when she was doing the Phantom Step at 70% as a Claymore)
the Organization's biggest darkest secret of all:
the normal yomas can sense/smell the most viable hosts for their Yoma Virus, "Raki smells delicious" or "why did human Clare never get eaten? the first yoma-her-brother, pounced on her, not to eat her, but to f'k her... and the 2nd yoma took her around from town to town, again, not eating her, and likely f'king her too...poor human Clare likely wasn't just physically abused... lol)
so, the Organization intentionally lets its normal yomas hunt down a "viable host", and let that normal yoma, kill the host's family, causing trauma and emotional distress, so that they'll be more powerful Claymores, and right before the normal yoma goes to eat/kill the viable host, the Organization sends in a Claymore to kill the normal yoma, and then the orphaned host, sees them as their saviors, and will be abandoned by humanity, making them easy "kid-nappings" by the "slave traders" (men in black = aka, the Organization), or easy pickings, as the orphaned hosts have no where else to go, either, and willingly too, as they want to get revenge on the yomas as well too...
ya... the Organization is really evil... though maybe it's a necessary evil... depends on the dragons and etc stuff... who knows... personally I think they're evil, wanting to rule/take over the world, but even if that's the case, the dragons could still be just as an equal of a threat as well too... sometimes evil is neccesary to balance/stalemate another evil, the two evils keep each other in check, lol
@@redmoonbloodmoon3161 yeah the organization is very manipulative. I think we just never get enough of a look into the larger conflict going on in the wider world with the dragon creatures. I think it could've had a similar "across the pond" feel of like attack on titan season 4 expanding into a larger more complex conflict with more insight
We need to start a petition to make this an on going thing because they need to continue this
I get so emotional at two scenes, when Teresa dies and when she's left clares body after defeating pricila
For some reason I would love to see you do this with air gear
It needs a remake but with the same soundtrack, in my opinion the soundtrack was absolutely perfect.
The soundtrack was good but they used some of the songs at really weird times.
Thank you for posting this... I really love this anime 😁
Thank you 😊 for this ❤
if this is ANYTHING like berserk I gotta get into it
Its not. At all. It's more like Witcher
@@charless1145 Is it good?
CLAYMORE was so good, the anime was great too, i just think maybe they are afraid it wont get attention like the mainstream stuff, and so its more about financial than it is willing
this was great! thanks so much for making it
Amazing video. Love all the hardwork you put into this. Claymore is such a hidden gem and you summarized it perfected. Thank you
one of the best anime and manga ever
man been so long since i read it....so many happy memories of claymore
Nice maybe this will inspire me to finally check this out
Claymore is so beast
When I read Claymore for the first time, I genuinely felt like the Claymores and the Witchers were related some how, like in the way they were inspired by each other, but I looked it up and figured out they weren't related.
It's so uncanny in a way, because they're both monster slaying professionals with eyes of a golden/silver color, who use swords, some magic, and all specialize in certain techniques
It's so weird man, I really thought that Witcher was inspired by Claymore or vice/versa
i think the reason why no studio had taken the role to animate Claymore is simply because.. who tf can draw over 30 frames of those detailed af monsters for 1 second, just imagine how long it would take just to animate 3 episode let alone the entire series
The best anime I have ever watched!!!
Sad it was only 26 episodes.
I watched Naruto, Bleach, Demon Slayer, Jujutsu Kaisen...love them all.
The other anime simply didn't catch my interest.
But all of them, have those childish silly moments, dragged on story line, filler episodes that make it feel like an eternity before the main plot continues.
That is why Claymore is different. It has serious, horrific and sinister atmosphere throughout 100% of the story line, never once does it do something goofy.
The idea of Awakening, especially waiting those episodes to see a new colossal awakened one, the creativeness of it all...just mind-blowing.
Wish they could turn the entire manga into anime till the end, with some new additions to make it refreshing and new.
Yeah I've told people many times that if I had the money to fund anime by myself this would be one of the few series to get a remake/reboot. Along with air gear and a couple others.
This series is a good reminder of how important it is to have variety when it comes to production companies that specialize in animation. It really isn't healthy for the market to have Japan strong gripping titles and not releasing them back to original owner or let another take on the project. Sounds idealistic, but I truly wish for a claymore reboot❤️✨️
Claymore was an anime that like defined my teenage years me and my brother watched it together he's younger than me so there weren't very many times where I wasn't being a doorknob and actually enjoyed something with him as children
It's truly a timeless epic. I've read this whole thing so many times. It's just phenomenal from start to finish with some of the best artwork. I'll never understand why the anime was a single season. They just ended it, and blam, it was done. There is so much story to Claymore. It's truly one of my favorites. I fell in love with these characters. Even the villains. Priscilla was such an unfortunate soul, forced into cannibalism as a child, forced to cope the only way she could. It was unfortunate she let it turn her into a monster god.
Ok let me break this down, the original source of power were the dragons, the organization captured one and tried to use men as hosts for its parts but taking parts directly from a dragon was too potent and difficult to control the willpower of so the men go mad. The organization then captures a male Yoki which is half dragon and human and does the same procedure to give women the power resulting in the claymore 1/3rd dragon with more control due to ratios but awakening makes them spiral out of control too.
Then by chance or divine destiny the most powerful claymore is defeated and her body is put into Claire making a 1/4th dragon human ratio that results in what is generally a fully in control powerful human. So this show is basically just about finding the perfect recipie for super humans and there's no actual reason men couldn't be claymores lol
not quite correct...
on the continent, there were many races/species, all fighting against each other in a huge FFA, but as always, it consolidates into 2 factions, one faction is The Organization, and the other faction are the Dragons (and their kinsmen, yoma-like human-sized-shaped "dragon-men")
the Dragons actually have a virus ("the Yoma Virus") within them (biology works via viruses infecting: changing/altering and/or adding-to cells' DNA, as that's what viruses are made to do, laughs, whereas cells don't change other cells, so they're not using the dragons' cells, there's actually a virus within the dragons, which is what is able to create the yomas as well as being part of the dragon's DNA too, which the Organization learns about, once they finally able to capture a dragon)
the Organization wants to rule the world, via creating weapons to do so...
first, they somehow create their indestructible claymore swords (I theorize that the indestructible claymore swords are likely the Dragon's uber hard hide/scales/claws/whatever, though there's still how exactly the swords are able to be made in the first place, sighs. It takes a sword made out of dragon's body to be able to cut a dragon's uber tough/hard body)
while the indestructible claymore swords can cut and kill the dragons and their dragonkin, they need a user/wielder who is able to use the indestructible claymore swords, they need something with the strength to wield the indestructible swords and cut and kill the dragons and their dragonkin
somehow... they do discover about the Yoma Virus within the dragons (via a captured dragon, likely a dying dragon, lol), and they infect humans with it, creating the (normal) yomas, which they use as their warriors wielding their indestructible claymore swords against the dragons and their dragonkin (you can see through their helmet visor's gaps/slits, that those are yomas under their armor, and not humans, as a yoma has the strength to use the indestructible claymore swords to cut and kill the dragons and their dragonkin, not humans: the Organization has been using the normal yomas as their infantry grunts/soldiers/warriors for a long long long long long time, lol)
next, it is most likely, they make a huge discovery by accident:
they likely witnessed a yoma eating a human, and becoming more human-like (having their intelligence, memories, mannerisms, and etc stuff, including their shape shifting abilities too), which likely helped in the Organization being able to control them as warriors against the dragons and their dragonkin (by having a Yoma eat a human, it becomes more sentient and less "feral")
while the yoma warriors could theoretically cut and kill the dragons, the dragons were just too powerful for the yoma warriors to kill (just as a normal yoma could never kill an Awakened, even if theoretically it could do fatal damage to the Awakened). The yoma warriors were great against the dragonkin, but not against the Dragons... they needed something equal to that of the dragons...
with this discovery about this even greater power/ability of the yoma virus... instead of having a yoma eat a human, the Organization decided to see what would happen if they put the yoma flesh into a human (just like they had done with putting the yoma virus itself into a human, creating the normal yomas), and.... they got something completely NEW.... the Claymore, not human and not yoma, something completely different... often having far more power and abilities than even the more sentient normal yomas...
and... of course with having Claymores... they soon had Claymores initially accidentally/unknowingly going beyond their limits (not knowing that there were limits / Awakening, lol), and Awakened, with the Organization learning about Awakeneds...
initially males were used to create Claymores, and the Organization would have them "Awaken-bomb", fighting the dragons as Awakeneds, as roughly equals...
which was great... but the Awakeneds weren't under the Organization's control... often the male Claymores would Awaken within the Organization's military camp, accidentally or intentionally, and kill the Organization's yoma warriors and whoever else of/from the Organization, lol, as much as they would attack the dragons
the whole "male-lust" of the male Claymores on the island is almost entirely BS lying by the Organization, as actually, they had male and female Claymores together at the same time (Riful was a Claymore right along with Claymore Isley, Claymore Rigardo, and Claymore Dauf, all of them were really good friends/lovers/rivals), and also, all of the male Claymores together, DECIDED/CHOSE to Awaken, likely to gain/get/have their freedom from the Organization and enjoying that freedom... (though Isley got most of all of them to join him, lol, so much for freedom, trading one tyrant for another tyrant, laughs, aside from a few male Awakeneds: Dauf, "spider man / praying mantis", Chronos, and Lars)
(and also, female Claymores also experience and enjoy the "lust" of the power of using their Yoki and/or in Awakening should they not resist it, as hinted at with Helen with her becoming a Half-Awakened: f'king on top of a male-man-human-pet, laughs, when she starts to Awaken atop the poor guy's lap, lol, but she was somehow able to resist it and revert back, becoming a Half-Awaken, along with a few other female Claymores admitting the pleasure-power-lust-high of it as well. And most clearly seen with Orcish Priscilla when she Awakened... "ahhhhh, I didn't know if would feel this gooood", in a very orgasmic-pleasure-lustful sounding voice, lol)
and there's a lot more that goes on, on the island, but I'm getting tired, and that's a huge mass of more writing, lol
basically there's two types of weapons:
quality vs quantity
quality: individually ultimate OP weapons (Destroyer, Awakened Priscilla, the Black Ones: Soul Link Awakened Alicia the Black and Beth, Teresa, Clare, Rafaela, the other Abyssals, etc etc etc)
quantity: mass produceable and controllable powerful weapons: the Abyss Feeders (and they're controllable, too, at least, the Organization hopes their control measures over the Abyss Feeders stays in effect.. lol... or they'll be victims of one of the oldest wisdoms: "the dog always ends up eating its master", lol) and also the Destroyer too in terms of quantity with it infecting its targets creating its Luciela-spawns... (but they're completely uncontrollable, but very "mass-produceable", well it can quickly become a chain reaction of infections / Luciela-spawn creation...)
@@redmoonbloodmoon3161 damn bro i really read this all thanks!!!
I hope a new studio revives the series and creates a full anime adaptation of the manga from start to finish. The entire manga collection was released awhile back and Claymore merch recently has been resurging with Figurama, so maybe there's a chance some studio out there will garner interest in giving Claymore the complete anime adaptation it truly deserves!
I feel like UFOTABLE is perfect to work on this series Anime Remake. The studio could also add a lot of dramatic nuances & details to the story while being very faithful.
another amazing timeline keep up the great work
"Cassandra, the Doo Steader"
😂, I can let the other mispronunciatuons go, but this was too funny to not mention. I was CACKLING. 😅 I had to rewind the video.
The ending isn't like the anime at all but I can appreciate both. The manga Definitely headed in a unique direction with that whole Teresa thing.
They ended anime in one season, at pieta with dildohead escaping under Islay protection....
After the berserk timeline and this I’m definitely subscribed
Alright I could forgive all the mispronunciations up until "doost eter"
It's "dust eater" because of the way she fights.
I wish they’d continue the manga with new main characters. Miata would be an amazing main character, she’s already very powerful and her character development would be phenomenal. The unnumbered twin would also be amazing
