Epic scene, stuff like this is why Claymore is one of my favorite mangas of all time xD
In my honest opinion, they've already defeated Priscilla. They beat her several times, they did all the planning and it even worked, they beat her fair and square, now they have that dramatic stuff out of the way. Priscilla managing to survive is basically only so we can have book ends on the series; it started out with Priscilla and Teresa fighting, and now it ends with Teresa and Priscilla fighting, only this time with a very different result.
Furthermore, I think it would be absolutely perfect if there weren't any long, drawn-out fight scenes. We've had loads of those already, they showed just how powerful she was. What we need now is Teresa verbally crushing Priscilla, breaking all her allies and backups, before decapitating her in one strike.
Even if that doesn't happen though, this chapter was FABULOUS.
Agree with everything you say.
