Finally read it when it popped up in my manga reader. Finally ended, been reading since 2007! I think it ended about as well as it could have possibly and certainly in ways that I'd hoped for on previous posts. Bye Claymore, its been a ride. 10/10 ending. I'd also like to thank and send...

Quite liked the chapter. I have the usual Roxy fanboy regret we didn't get to see more of Roxanne. It's a bit disappointing that this isn't "true" Priscilla but I think it's about the only way it could work and not come off as a complete ass pull and I think it makes sense in terms of what we...

I don't think the same thing could happen with Irene. Teresa's head or part of it got put into Clare so that likely explains the consciousness. Remember when the Priss-parts were placed in the others and even when it took over Cassandra so she transformed to physically resemble Priss, they...

Want to point out that Teresa might simply not be as powerful as before. All we've got is her head after all, certainly the Priss-bits in the other Zombie Abyssals made them powerful (especially in Cassandra's case after she ate Roxanne) but they were still not a patch on Priscilla. It's...

Excuse me while I put on "Rebirth" by Two Steps From Hell. So Clare really did Awaken into Teresa and they became a goddess through love. Have to go with a 10/10. Really the only one who could ever match Priscilla in power was Teresa, much better than having Clare alone power up. This probably...

Yoma physiology is such a huge mess, so I can't really say whether Priscilla could or couldn't transfer her consciousness. Has we ever seen that done before? As usual God Eye Galatea's theories sound like good possibilities so Cassie eating of the "P-consciousness" and your comment about the...

Originally I thought the Riful-doll emerged when the Blob had eaten Riful and combined it with possessed Dauf, but rereading made me realize that can't have happened. My current pet theory is pregnant Riful who absorbed some of the blob and divined the yoki-sucking. A child of two awakened...

So my reaction to this chapter can be summed up with "AHH!!" as I actually said that out-loud at the ending. As for plausibility of why it happened, we don't see how bad Raki is hurting or what he's going to do. It's possible he falls over dying the first page of the next issue. I would...

Hmm, situation as Teresa. That makes me think: when Teresa died, she had allowed herself to feel love/caring again. Now that Clare has allowed herself to love/care about others, she is more closely synchronized with her Teresa power source--and so might be able to draw on it more completely...

Just wanted to add a minor point: Clare is named after one of the twin Goddesses of Love, so her name itself indicates the direction of her overall character arc.

Roxanne is by far the most potentially interesting and entertaining character this manga has introduced in a long, long time. That's why we keep up hope. That said, almost surely not going to happen! @Detox: Didn't Rubel say something to himself similar to that in a recent scene?

I think you're right with regard to the psychology. Maybe Cassandra even hates what she's become on some level since she died as a Claymore, not an AB. It could be like Priscilla's own little girl blind spot, a last command from the Cassandra part that tells her to hate Priss above all else...

I went back and looked at 19-21, and I think Priss DOES look a little different The differences aside from hair color seem subtle: Claymore Priss had her hair parted in the middle while current Priss has it hanging over more of her face. It also looks a little bit longer. Current Priss has more...

So I thought this chapter was fantastic. I though it was very interesting how basically Miria and Clare can now class as No.2s and maybe even lower level No.1s. I like how crushing Priss is being to them, saying that Miria shouldn't even bother alone since she only barely failed with teamwork...

I like that about Claymore. It isn't always just about who is stronger. Skill counts for just as much, and in certain situations more than strength. Probably something to remember in the chapters to come as the fight with Priss begins. I know this is a debate that's been had before, but just how...
