honestly... based on the last few arcs... I have been severely disappointed...

They need to save this anime w/ an excellent ending... but how will they do that with only 1 episode remaining? ughhhh...

8/10... or 7/10? we'll see...

I have a feeling that I will be utterly disappointed with the final episode. And there will be tons of loose ends. :-(

I didn't read the manga but it was before Pieta that my score slid to more of a 8/10. I'm pretty sure this'll end up 7/10 for me. Too bad it seemed like my sorta thing.
Such junk...

This episode is the worst so far... lacks any contribution to the series... almost all the information was repetitive, the fight was boring. Completely killed the pacing (or was too slow). Bad animation.
This is the most disappointment I've felt towards a single episode since Mai Hime (or maybe it's even worse than that)...

Though I would disagree about Prinscilla's muscles. I don't really see a problem with them... O.o
Uh, what are you talking about? I thought the episode was fucking awesome. Clare is about to fight against Priscila, Priscila reached a whole new level of power, Clare's friends almost get massacred, and Clare pretty much fully awakes if she's not already awakened. Also, she unawakened after the previous chapter, I fucking love how Clare is a master of self-control and it shows here O_O

I started Claymore on the 26th and I'll finish it today. I only did that because I found it to be absolutely amazing. But I have to say, I'm quite disappointed right now. And I haven't read the manga (though I'll probably do that once I'm finished since most people say it's way better).

Some people complain that the second half of the show was boring. I don't agree. Personally I think "The Witch's Maw" one of the best (if not the best) arc in the whole show. However, I admit that the Pieta arc is being somewhat boring. The animation quality lately is bothering me a little as well. With that taken into account, I loved everything up until episode 20 and episode 23 was also awesome because of the amazing fighting sequences.

But this, this is killing the show. Too many power ups and I don't believe that only a few people complained about it. The fight was bad on the episode but Priscilla awakening again? It doesn't make sense. Oh crap, I... I dunno what to say. Really, the best part in this episode was the scene with Raki and Jean although I hate Raki.
I'm curious about Clare's awakened arms but I'm afraid to be disappointed with the ending. I guess I'm gonna wait one more hour before watching episode 26 xD Or maybe it would be better to watch it now... I don't know. What I do know is that an anime that I was once sad about not being able to rate 11/10 has now dropped to a 9/10. Let's just hope the ending is not that bad.

P.S.: I totally agree with Da_Nuke about Clair's self-control. One of her best characteristics. Really.

Since I haven't read the manga, I think this episode was average.. Could have been made better though.

That's really hard to change.. once you knew ahead about the story you can't stop swearing words about the anime that follows it..

Anyway even though the ending will be different, aside from rating it via story alone, the other factors really put up the anime, and a superb series..

this episode is really IMBA

I'm guessing they needed someway to power up both Claire & Priscilla, and this was one of them. With Priscilla momentarily beating Claire away, then reawakening stronger fighting the Miria Squad, which she then crushes. And then Claire awakens her arms too. Should actually be an interesting fight.

Oh and, in the manga, Claire doesn't use her new arms much.

The animation was so so for a second to last episode and the fight was a bit repetitive. But all the actors are no in place and the final battle can begin.

I can't wait to return to the manga, this is a pain to watch. I read the manga until Pieta so it's not because it deviates from the manga that I find it painful.
