ouch, harsh! I enjoyed this episode. I anxiously waited a whole week and wasn't disappointed. Except in Raki, I guess they had to stall his saving of Clare until the final battle. Story-wise I'll accept his weakness but Character-wise made him despicable. I'll quote him and say," I(Raki) was all talk."

I think I'm reading the manga for that. It does looks like they cut out Raki's development from the anime. Hope it gets better there.

As for Clare... holy shit, I told you that Clare is the master of self-control, it looks like she unawakened just to fight against Priscila O_O

I suppose they needed someway to cue the fight between Priscilla & Claire. Also, Jean's attempt to get that far with a hole through her guts is valiant, but will probably lead to her death.

And then there's the manga alternative, which i won't mention again.

This episode was somewhat of a disappointment. That whole 10 minutes of begging to be beheaded was really lame.

So Raki didn't simply come and stop Clare from awakening, I hope some of you guys are happy now. Ah well.. probably not, since he's showing some more emotion.


Actually, I am happy. As long as I don't have to hear him angstfully yelling "Claire!" over and over again, I can actually enjoy his character. He went in to save someone after all this training and travelling, but ends up facing badasses who travel faster than the eye can see and can cut a building down in one sword stroke. Of course he's scared and feels impotent, that's the only believable reaction! I only hope his requisite manning up portion doesn't involve him being annoying as usual.

Anyways, I liked this episode more than the last one. I only hope they manage to end it well.

I've already said what I wanted about Raki. This episode just confirms it.

Priscilla really hated Teresa, huh?

Raki useless as ever, so good luck for him. Priscila annoying as ever and it would please me like nothing else if Clare would kill her. Still, doubt it will happen. Whatever, good episode.

Can I say I didn't like this episode at all?

No.

This episode was fkin great in my opinion. I guess the rants against it are from people who are reading the manga. The animation quality was perfect too. lol, the fight looked way better in this episode's flashback, than it did back then.

I just want to see fully awakened Clare asap.

For the first time ever, for the show Claymore, I actually disliked everything in an episode, not feeling neutral about it, not liking it, but actually disliked it. Claymores don't even act as claymore anymore.

Glad to know that this is just some filler shit.

Raki is being just as useless as he did with Priscilla in her child form.
Now he keeps talking about wanting to save Clare but ultimately just hides because she's "awakening" ugh ...

Galatea slightly helping out the other 3 so they can back-up Clare in time (hopefully)

I was rewatching Claymore and I saw the discussion on this episode about people saying this episode was pretty much a filler. The animation in some parts does seem super rushed, like the screenshot of Galatea below.

Same here, i was thinking of reading the manga after i finish the anime but not anymore. I dont believe people compare this cringy show with berserk worst berserk character is well written more than the pussy cringy that is raki(main character).

LOL someone was whining in a previous post that our "main character" Raki got so little screentime. Well finally he's back and here to help Cla...oh look he's cowering in fear while Clare is awakening. When she did it the first time, he immediately jumped to her aid, so what changed? Is he scared of her monstrous form or something? Who knows, who cares? It's funny how Miria, Helen, Deneve, and Jean are closer to her than Raki at this point. They didn't hesitate to go after her. Why is he even still here? Honestly, he was so pitiful in this episode that I genuinely felt bad for him.

To think that same person said the Teresa arc ruined the show lol. That arc was miles better that whatever is happening right now.

@MSochist They're likely just sexist or something. I don't know. I literally don't know how you can watch this show, and be the most excited for Raki.
