Summary
A New York Times best selling， multi-arc， character-driven story with great battles and strong-willed females that will appeal to males and females alike。
In a world where monsters called Yoma prey on humans and live among them in disguise， humanity's only hope is a new breed of warrior known as Claymores。 Half human， half monster， these silver-eyed slayers possess supernatural strength but are condemned to fight their savage impulses or lose their humanity completely。
Claire and the orphan Raki travel to the town of Rabona， where a Yoma has been stalking the priests inside the cathedral。 The creature could be one of the guards， or even a priest， but this time Claire won't be able to sense its aura。 Does she stand a chance against the stealthy Yoma？

Muy bueno， me gusta mucho la protagonista pero siento que este volumen fue un poco predecible pero épico igual

Pretty good manga， will continue reading more of it to see how the characters and the story develop。

Di Volume kedua ini dunianya diperluas lagi dengan misi Clare ke sebuah kota suci yang terkena terror Yoma。 Perkembangan yang menarik。 Satu hal yang juga nampak disini adalah gambar latarnya sudah mulai tampak ramai。 Meski demikian di beberapa panel masih terasa terlalu bersih。 Latar waktunya masih terasa ambigu karena kesan abad pertengahan-nya belum terlalu kuat。

I’m still interested in what’s going to happen， even though the “man who travels with a kid and eventually create a bond” is a cliche， I like that and “Claymore” managed to put a woman instead a man， which was a nice choice。 However this volume was flat and not as good as the first， though this wasn’t bad at all。

So much action！！！And then some slower patches between。。。and the odd part where you're like， "Now why you do that？" :P（My biggest was when they bound Clare's wounds with bandages going around the outside of her clothing？！ Alrighty then。。。）How rude though they cut the manga right in the middle of the battle！ Next volume for closure！（I think Clare looks so much better with her silver eyes， don't you？） So much action！！！And then some slower patches between。。。and the odd part where you're like， "Now why you do that？" :P（My biggest was when they bound Clare's wounds with bandages going around the outside of her clothing？！ Alrighty then。。。）How rude though they cut the manga right in the middle of the battle！ Next volume for closure！（I think Clare looks so much better with her silver eyes， don't you？） 。。。more

3。5/5Clare has a new mission and along with Raki， they go to a little village where ‘unholy things’ are not allowed。 She disguises herself as a human with the help of some pills that suppress her yoma abilities， so this work means she should be stealthier and more careful， to find out who’s the yoma who is been eating the spiritual men in the cathedral。 Despite its short length， this volume showed us how Raki truly cares about Clare， even when she’s a half-breed。 And though she may not speak it 3。5/5Clare has a new mission and along with Raki， they go to a little village where ‘unholy things’ are not allowed。 She disguises herself as a human with the help of some pills that suppress her yoma abilities， so this work means she should be stealthier and more careful， to find out who’s the yoma who is been eating the spiritual men in the cathedral。 Despite its short length， this volume showed us how Raki truly cares about Clare， even when she’s a half-breed。 And though she may not speak it out loud， she cares for the kid too。 Plus， we get amazing action scenes and the art style improved so much that I’m glad I kept reading the series！Also， kudos to the artist for those backrounds， they really give the best ambience of this fantasy/supernatural story！ Can’t wait to read the next volumes！ PREVIOUS REVIEWS:Volume 1 。。。more

This is a review of the entire series。In a dark fantasy world overrun by shape-shifting demons called Yoma， a mysterious organization has created half-breed warriors called Claymores to combat the monsters terrorizing the world。 The story centers around a Claymore named Clare， a determined woman who seeks revenge against the Yoma that killed the person she loved and admired most。 On her journey of revenge， she slowly unravels the horrifying mysteries surrounding the origins of the Yoma， the shad This is a review of the entire series。In a dark fantasy world overrun by shape-shifting demons called Yoma， a mysterious organization has created half-breed warriors called Claymores to combat the monsters terrorizing the world。 The story centers around a Claymore named Clare， a determined woman who seeks revenge against the Yoma that killed the person she loved and admired most。 On her journey of revenge， she slowly unravels the horrifying mysteries surrounding the origins of the Yoma， the shady organization that created her， as well as the true meaning of her own existence。When I first started reading， the story instantly gave me Vampire Hunter D， The Witcher and Berserk vibes， only this time it featured a captivating and sympathetic female lead named Clare。 We don't know that much about her at first， but beneath her stoic and determined facade is a struggling little girl with a tragic backstory of loss and a painful drive of revenge interfering with her ability to live a normal life。 Despite her cold and sometimes monstrous demeanor， Clare has a big soft spot for humanity despite the blood of demons running through her veins。 She's chilling， badass and most importantly， sympathetic。Over the course of the series， we meet dozens of amazing female warriors， each with their own unique powers， personalities， demonic transformations and interactions with Clare。 Theresa of the Faint Smile who serves as a motherly role model for Clare was my favorite character in the story， and I ended up being impressed by the sheer amount of badass， likable female warriors that were introduced later on in the series that I ended up growing attached to as well。 It's not too often you see dark fantasy or sword & sorcery series where 99% of the main cast are well-written female warriors。Some plot points get a bit messy in the second half of the series， but the action， characters， horror and monsters never stop being thrilling and it also has a very satisfying conclusion despite having a few road bumps along the way。 It's a great series if you enjoy the Conan-esque monster of the week formula with added layers of mystery and emotion。***My Social MediaMy YouTube Channel: https://www。youtube。com/channel/UCPPs。。。My Instagram Account: https://www。instagram。com/michael_sor。。。My Wattpad Account: https://www。wattpad。com/user/Michael-。。。My Twitter Account: https://twitter。com/SorbelloHorrorMy Facebook Account: https://www。facebook。com/michael。sorb。。。 。。。more

That was actually a stunning improvement on all fronts。 Most of vol。 2 is one story as opposed to a few different ones， and we're finally getting something that seems like a more cohesive plot rather than a simple anthology。 The art improved， though villagers still don't look great， but important side characters looks a lot more distinct。 We see more and more of how Clare is a very subtly complex character upon inspection， with some intriguing morals （or lackthereof）， and we also see just how li That was actually a stunning improvement on all fronts。 Most of vol。 2 is one story as opposed to a few different ones， and we're finally getting something that seems like a more cohesive plot rather than a simple anthology。 The art improved， though villagers still don't look great， but important side characters looks a lot more distinct。 We see more and more of how Clare is a very subtly complex character upon inspection， with some intriguing morals （or lackthereof）， and we also see just how little she cares about the blatant prejudices she faces， while still having the humanity to care for Raki。Also， the twist in this volume is excellent。 I actually remembered it from when I originally read the volumes， and it just occasionally gives the tiniest of hint here and there。 Manga aren't normally good at that， but this one pulled it off。 。。。more

“Yoma treat all equally。 Those who have money and those who don’t。 Those with status and those without。 Whether they’re believers or nonbelievers。 Male or female。 Old or young。 It matters not。 As long as they have flesh。 They are all the same。”I like how Clare can be vulnerable。 I also like that the dynamics of the characters have progressed， thanks to the flashbacks。 We’re starting to go deeper now， character-wise and even world-building-wise。

This is when I started to care。World: The art is fantastic， there is a cold distance to it that makes what’s happening on the page all the more frightening。 The world building is solid， it’s not overly detailed like the last book， which had the job of introducing Claymores， the world and Yoma to the readers， this book just focuses on a small part， the church。 The smaller world scope is good cause it focuses on the characters instead。Story: Action packed like the last book and reads really quickl This is when I started to care。World: The art is fantastic， there is a cold distance to it that makes what’s happening on the page all the more frightening。 The world building is solid， it’s not overly detailed like the last book， which had the job of introducing Claymores， the world and Yoma to the readers， this book just focuses on a small part， the church。 The smaller world scope is good cause it focuses on the characters instead。Story: Action packed like the last book and reads really quickly。 This is the arc that really made me connect with Raki and Clare。 The small quiet moments and images of their looks at each other is wonderfully muted to express the depth of emotion that is at play here。 The story is well put together， a bit expected and safe but at the same time it allows for the character moments to shine and that is the core of this story here。Characters: Clare is well done， she’s still an enigma and how she’s written makes her interesting to readers and with Raki there as out point of view it’s works。 The emotions that these two have for each other is earned， it’s only less than 12 issues in and it’s already pretty strong and it’s because of the well done basic drive of these two characters and the art that drives those emotions into the readers head。 The new pieces here with the priests and the soldiers is well done if a bit cliched but they serve their purpose as this is still Clare and Raki’s story。A strong emotional book that makes readers care about the characters。Onward to the next book！ 。。。more
