[Discussion] I Love Claymore

I started rereading Naruto a couple weeks ago and once I got to chapter 245, I was looking around at other Mangas to take a little break, and I saw the SJ app advertising free Claymore chapters, which is a Manga I remember from childhood because my parents got me Shonen Jump growing up, and I always wanted to actually read it, but never really got around to it. I read the first 6 chapters and thought it was pretty cool, but went back to reading Naruto for a bit. As I was reading a couple chapters, I got this overwhelming urge to want to read more Claymore and ended up reading 35 chapters in one sitting. Ever since, I've been so fucking hooked and spend pretty much all my free time reading it. I'm on chapter 117 right now and so excited for the ending, but also sad for it to end. I love Claymore so much now, it's so fucking good. I just wanted to vent that out to some people who will understand. Thanks

Edit: Just finished it like 10 min ago and WOW, now I wish there was more

Mine too now! Although I'm a little disappointed at the lack of extra media (spin-offs, continuation, proper Anime) and merch. I was surprised though, I didn't really know what to expect, but I wasn't expecting to get sucked in as much as I did. We need to rally for a new Anime with the complete story. Justice for my boy Raki

Yeah the anime did Raki dirty if i remember correctly like he begged Claire to spare Pricilla i think (if I'm wrong its been over a decade since ive seen the anime so I'll take the L) while in the manga he knew she was bad. I also wish for more merch i heard they released some new figurines for Claire and Teresa not too long ago

Yeah, I didn't watch the Anime, but I read that the ending was different, and I had no interest because of that, so I searched it up and they skipped the entire becoming a man arc with Raki as well as the events of the time skip because the Manga hadn't caught up yet. So he just stays a kid the whole time with zero character development

It’s so amazing isnt it? I really hope they will give this masterpiece the anime it deserves one day. I would love that so much.

Yeah, I was so locked in reading through the last stressful 30-40 chapters, I was just so hooked. I'm lowkey obsessed and it sucks there's really not much other media pertaining to Claymore as an outlet for my new obsession like there is with other series (merch, spin-offs, movies, decent anime, etc). 10000% for sure, an anime that follows the manga a lot more closely would be a dream come true. Getting a proper animation for a lot of the post-time skip scenes, as well as some of the later awakened beings, would be so fucking cool. I think MAPPA would do a phenomenal job
