Claymore 110 Discussion / 111 Prediction Thread

[Asahina]

When will the next chapter be released?
The first week of January? I hope it contains over 40 pages for this chapter.
It feels like we've waited forever. Even Berserk & Gantz feels like it released more than Claymore right now.

One thing I've realized is that this manga should be a seinen series. I wonder why it's labeled shounen...

Lastly, it's quite obvious Raki will be the exception of most males who are unable to control & suppress their 'youki power'. I believe that that when Raki becomes something new, he'll be the one who will trigger Priscilla & Clare's "youki egg" by sensing and coming near it - and the crazy controversy will start.

Just like when Clare was attracted to the twin destroyer, before it completely awakened.

Claymore chapters have NEVER missed a month, and are usually ~20-30 pages each

Claymore chapters usually come out either:

1. the first week of the new month (for example for ch 111, Jan. 1-7, usually the 1st or 4/5th day)

OR

2. the last week of the current month (for example for ch 111, dec. 25-31)

According to someone else who knows much more about this then I do, whether its shounen, seinen, or whatever, it has NOTHING to do with it or the demographics that it's contents are directed towards, but rather simply with what magazine it gets published in. So, if it gets published in a shounen magazine than its a shounen manga, even if it has obviously adult content (extreme/graphic blood/gore/guts or graphic/extreme sex) and thus "should be a seinen.. or hentai even", yet again it'll remain labeled as a shounen as that's the magazine it was published in.

------------------------------------

for me personally,

I don't see Claymore's violence any different than Naruto's or Bleach's. Naruto and Bleach both have severing of body parts and blood splatterings just like Claymore. Ya, Claymore has some nudity, but there's nothing sexual about it. It's not like there's not nudity all over in art in museums, that even little kids can go and see it. There's a difference between artistic or literary/plot nudity and porn-sensual-nakedness gratuitious fanservice. We got the nudity in Bleach and Naruto with the cleavage of the oversized/unrealistic sized female characters in them. Also, in both Naruto and Bleach you got the "boob jokes" and the "boob touching/contact" and Naruto's "sexy jutsu" too (in naruto only obviously, though Bleach has something even better, child Nel'ial to adult Nel'ial transformation, RAWR! Hey, I'm a male, lol. "Tinkerbell" with... big.. or maybe I should say Tinkerbo... hehe. Also there's Halilbel's more revealing transformation as well) fanservice too. In fact, Naruto and Bleach have way more fanservice than does Claymore, as Claymore really hardly has any at all (which is why Claymore is so amazingly written, being able to attract so many males without the fanservice of panty shots for the most-99% part or oversized/unrealistic chested female characters). Okay, there's some suggested sexual unnendoes, such as some lewd/vulgar speech (if you got a dirty mind anyways) and the "rape" scenes, but nothing ever happens. There is no actual rape nor truly any actually sexual unnendoes, only suggested if/with having a very dirty mind. But, really, if you got an nearly entire female cast of characters, and not one of them has an oversized/unrealistic chest (Claymore manga/anime), it's undeniably far less sexual than ones that do, such as Naruto and Bleach mangas/animes!

personally, I'm questioning whether that whole "males are unable to control themselves and their yoki release" that Rubel/the Organization said, is actually truthful.... I'm leaning that this is just a big fat lie... and even that the Org never actually stopped making male Claymores/Awakeneds on the island... well maybe I'm getting a bit too much into my wild theories/speculations now, hehe
