Claymore's End Impressions

[daeva_neesan]

So, Claymore is the first series I'm watching that came to an end (well, according the fansubs X'D).

I must say, it's not the best ending ever, but I find it appropriate: it doesn't try to give definitive answers or such, which can be bothering since its integrity as a series, but at least it doesn't try to mess up with the manga, leaving to the fans the option to know more about Clare's adventures via manga.

. I like Raki. Other fans are just pointing out at every episode how lame and pathetic he is.
I like him like that.
It's nice to see a weak character in a series filled with badasses.
Personally I hope he'll get busy with Clare XD They are so cute together ♥

. I loved that fact that Clare didn't turn back as a human being thanks to Raki's hug but with Jeane's help. It had this "Paying my debts back" amusing vibe that I really appreciated.
I've been sad that yoma!Clare tried to kill Raki, though, also if it made sense.

. I don't think that there's going to be a second series, despite the lack of answers and resolutions.

. I'm happy that Miria, Deneve and Helen survived. WEEEEH XD !

. I'm also happy that Clare didn't kill Priscilla in the end.
Everyone hates also Priscilla XD I like her, she's an interesting character. And Isley is so cute with her <3 I wonder if they have some kind of brother/sister relationship... I bet that Isley decided to became a Claymore because a yoma killed his little sister, LOL

. --Why I have this bothering imagery of Isley molesting Raki? Raki didn't know that this was the kind of "swordmanship" Isley was referring too D:

What about you, my Claymore-oriented f-list--?


--Ah, just so you know--
I updated my DeviantART account with the last pictures I did; they include Claymore, Gurren Lagann and Fullmetal Alchemist stuff.
I posted there also two Aide's fanarts that I'm not confident to post on y!G because of the furry contents-- I know that people are posting him around since ages-- But I bet that if I'll post him I'll get a ban XD
You can check 'em here over gurren_lagann too.

A lot of people over at RandomCuriousity.com are bashing its ending. They keep crying "THEY DID NOT FOLLOW THE MANGA!!11!". Except that logic is flawed since the manga is unfinished. The anime was pretty much forced to come up with something on its own, but I do agree with you about how it purposely left things unanswered.

This anime makes me want to read its manga version. There are very, very few anime that make me do that. The last time was when I watched FMA.

And if the comments on RC.com are true, a second season has already been given the green light. But we'll have to wait a very long time for it because I'm sure they'll want as much of its manga done so they'll have something to work with for season #2.

I really hate mangatards... They're just incapable of criticizing things constructively.
I always try to read the manga versions of the animes I like but usually I'm unhappy with the contents-- The only manga I preferred over its animated version 'til now has been Hellsing (I also liked Death Note's, but I found the anime ending equally acceptable).
I wanted to read Claymore manga since its first publishing here but I lacked of money XD So I decided to watch the manga to get an idea of the contents-- Are you reading it via scanlations? Where do you find them..?

I think that a second season is improbable: maybe they'll get out an OVA.
