Claymore Chapter 1 Discussion

  • #10
KHR, Gantz, and now Claymore. Fr tho, I'm a on manga-binging streak. This was a good start, a setting similar to Berserk and this also reminded me of demon slayer for some reason. The manga looks promising!!! Can't wait to read the rest!!!

I'll give advice to everyone who starts Claymore and reads its forum. Don't read the posts of HegemonKhan. The fucker spoils everything he can

The art is absolutely horrible. I really hope it improves later on the series

also...



they have NO official name



they have two UN-official names: Claymores or Silver-Eyed Witches



Claymore comes from the reference to the huge swords (claymores) they carry/use/wield.



Silver-Eyed Witches comes from the fact that they DO have silver eyes, and that they are female.



their hair is either blond or light colored



they are at least as tall as the human males, or ~ 6 ft tall. the human women are under 6 feet tall, maybe ~ 5'6'' tall.

Raki:



mom = eaten by the (normal) yoma

dad = eaten by the (normal) yoma

brother = Zaki = eaten by the (normal) yoma and it uses his form/body afterwards

uncle = eaten by the (normal) yoma



1st encounter with the (normal) yoma = Raki faints. (his brother gets eaten by the normal yoma while he is unconscious).



2nd encounter with the (normal) yoma = Raki tries unsuccessfully to punch it. (lol)





Raki smells delicious to the (normal) yoma.

                        Claymores are silver-eyed demon killers that are half-demon themselves.  They make the demons part of themselves?  



The drawing style is a little different--it seems like their eyes are smaller and the foreheads bigger than normal for manga.  



Claire is the female protagonist and she seems icy cold and quite lonely.  I think she is afraid of forming relationships--perhaps she was hurt in the past?  Maybe she regrets being one of the Claymores or perhaps she feels closer to the demons yet she is paid by humans to hunt and kill them.

Was a interesting first chapter!!

Yoma, a mosnter, humans and hibrid with a super-powers, all girls very serious, although this one, Clare seems different, or not?
