Awsome episode, Ophelia ftw.
And a kiss between Clare and Raki, anyone else noticed that Clare's lips changed in the scene after? =o
I felt kinda bad for the awakened too, since she had such a cute voice.
Looking forward to next week =)

We were writing them at the same time probably. 'Coz I checked for the 12 discussion before I went to create it. You wrote faster ^^. So I deleted mine.

Wow... great ep.

Finally we see some development in Raki's character. Loved to see him fight like that even though he never had a chance.
And this Ophelia character is getting on my nerves already. The b*tx! Hope she dies a horrible death :P
Though due to manga spoilers...(blast'em...) I already know part of what's gonna happen to her. I'd love to see her ass kick by Clare, if that's possible at Clare's level atm.

I was totally not expecting that last scene with Clare kissing Raki o.o
Can't wait for the next ep.


And yeah I noticed her lips changing too... o.O

Great ep, but felt very short :( Wish I could kill Ophelia myself!! I'm getting more and more excited of what will happen to Raki, maybe he will become a claymore? :o
The kiss really surprised me, but I liked seeing that happen :) And yes, her lips changed very much o.O

Mmph ^.^ The animation took a bit of a drop here... Lots of panning and it was generally kind of inconsistent. I can understand why they would cut the budget for this episode though, because big shit starts going down real soon. Prioritize, go! Anyways, the next episode preview looks back to the usual quality animation, so eh.

I didn't like how the kiss looked. >.< I think this is the first time I've honestly been grumpy about a visual change from the manga to the anime. ^.^;;

Otherwise, an ok episode. I liked Ophelia's voice, and Raki's swiping at the Awakened One, I won't lie, made me die laughing. ^.^ I have a horrible sense of humor.

Great episode indeed. It's a job well done if a new Character is introduced with such power and such a bad personality that you can hate her already, I loved that.

The other things were already mentioned ^^.

That was a great episode. I can't wait to see the next one and I hope Ophelia gets an agonizing defeat that she rightly deserves.

That kiss definitely caught me way off guard though. With all his talk of protecting Clare I have no idea how Raki can do it in his normal state. Even with 100 years of training I can't see him standing a snowball's chance in hell against a Claymore or more powerful yoma. The only way I could see him being anywhere near a threat would be if he became a Claymore but considering how males are the most unstable type it wouldn't be a wise choice. I'm now very intrigued how Raki will develop from here on out.

...even a saint needs a soldier to do the dirty work.

I thought the animation did take a hit as well, but it was a great episode none the less. I just loved the whole confrontation with Ophelia and for her to beat that awakended being so fast was cool. I thought the kiss scene was very sweet. I cant wait to see what kind of develpment Raki will have. Anyways, looking forward to the next episode.

Damn, Ophelia better not stay just a zomgyoumusthateher!character. That'd suck badly.

Raki is so obsessed with protecting Clare in the fighting sense. Which isn't ever going to happen. I hope he finds a different way of protecting Clare. And if any of you knowledgable manga people are going to do annoying foreshading I'll go RAWR on you >:(

Honestly, I kinda agree. I hope the story follows Clare and then he shows up later after he's strong enough to be cool, or at least useful.

well for one, Clare has to bend too far down for a classic relationship so it looks awkward for now but Clare won't age but Raki still can, Sakura hates Naruto and likes Sasuke, Naruto + Hinata are far more likely match and rookia is spelled Rukia.

That was a effed up ep, I really like the design for the new awakened when she tranformed. Really creepy. I didn't so much hate Ophelia, I just watched in awe at how insane and awesome this ep was. If Clare doesn't realize after all this that the organization is trying to kill her, then she is as dense as they come.

Orphellia is so damm crazy!!!!! i love to see her maniac smile and her psychotic face, her chase for Clare and her bloodlust.
About the kiss: unexpected, she is really starting to like Raki (but both will suffer, as the masked man said, monsters and humans can't be toghether)

I really can't stand Raki either. Every time he says, "I'm gonna protect you!" and disobeys her, I want to smack the kid! I don't understand Clare's taste in guys...

This episode irritated me mostly. I'm actually quite sick of the claymore organization. I guess they'll screw with their claymore until doomsday. That kiss was nice but I so wanted to take Raki's place (minus the whining).

Ways to convince someone of the other gender to walk away :
1) Try to convince with words, but fail, resort to 2)
2) Kiss , then tell them again, and watch them go away

Otherwise, anyone know what the rank of that Awakened Being was?
