rememeber, rigald was the number one when claymore where male, he got beatn after him and easley awaken, that's also why all claymore are female in the universe of this manga, because male easily succumb to the ascension.
@@brotheralaric7177you are wrong. Isley was already number even before he turned. Rigaldo (silver eyed lion) was assigned number 2 spot. He didn’t accept it and chose to challenge him but he lost. He was also the last male warrior. He had a strong will but since all his comrade turned yoma he willingly awakened himself.
I can't say I am very fond of current "revivals". Both Shaman King and Higurashi were pretty "eh". Not every anime gets "Brotherhood" treatment, sadly. Of course I would like one (Claymore AND Soul Eater), but it's highly unlikely. I dunno
There is no way a 'revival' could improve upon this because the source material was worse. Too many people hype up the Claymore manga to the point where I wonder if anyone actually read it. It sucked.... it was good right up until exactly this point. Up until the defeat of Rigaldo. After that it goes completely to shit and only gets way worse.
Andrew Ziegler Goku from dbz, moka from rosario vampire, and I am pretty sure, there's lots of anime characters and video game characters do charging blindly and win lol
For those who haven't seen Claymore, this is just as out-of-nowhere as it probably seems. A huge team of Claymores are holding down this town and defeating every monster that shows up, they haven't lost a single warrior so far. Then this little dude we've never met shows up, transforms into a man-lion and 1-shots all of the team leaders in a matter of seconds. It's one of the most extreme threat-escalations I've ever seen in an anime and makes Regaldo a very memorable villain despite his limited screen time.
Yeah, out of context of Anime this fight feels fast. While in reality it was real struggle and one of best fights in the series. Still came back for it years later randomly remembering how Clair was chanting "more, more, more" as she was descending beyond the point of no return.
That’s not even the best part this team of claymores has a few people we grow to know as strong and almost impossible to defeat in groups at least that’s what they make you think at first because once he entered the scene all the claymores we know as strong are either one tapped in a flash or they’re just tossed to the dirt a few feet away and told by this absolute unit he doesn’t have time to waste on useless claymores like some of these useless claymores are have high numbers and are being told ohh yeah you might be recognized in today’s time but when I was a claymore you’d be seen as a joke right before he kills all your friends feet away
The main character here is Clare so Teresa need to die in order Clare become a claymore. If Teresa's alive Clare would never become a claymore. It's a story about Clare how she become a claymore.she want to avenge Teresa who takes care of her
By far one the most underrated and under appreciated fight scenes and anime’s of all time. They canceled this anime because the fights got straight to the point and didn’t last 20 episodes like others so it wasn’t as popular. Hate how anime like this gets cut short when other anime’s like one piece has 20 filler episodes between sagas giving a half year of boring content. Claymore manga is great after the Rigaldo saga. The low budget rush to finish the anime against Priscilla and not even feature Easley in a fight is one of the biggest blunders in anime history. Meanwhile boring shows like School Rumble and Fruits Basket are either still going or had multiple seasons
The best part about Rigardo is that unlike every other awakened being, he actually fought tactically. He only intervened here not because his forces were losing, it was the opposite, his forces were GOING to win... no, he intervened because he felt that losing any more of his men to the Claymores was unacceptable. He intended to kill the captains before ostensibly letting his men handle the rest which would be without losses. That's fucking cool. Rigardo was one of my favorites.
Nope. If he let the fight goes on, more claymore will gain more experience fighting awakened beings. Since he volunteered to take over, one exceptional claymore pushed her limits and inspired others. His strategy turns back against himself.
With his experience as a claymore turned awakened male being, he was able to determine which claymore captains contain little to no experience fighting his kind. Quickly taking out the captain who displayed any experience fighting a awakened being should be removed, this prevents anymore male awaken beings from being lose. Inadvertently he didn't have expectations for Claire's abilities until she half awakened and took his arm.
@@Archedgar Saw this anime ages ago but I can sort of remember that being in the anime, that the north mission was straight up just useless and as you said it was a suicide mission, again Im not sure but the Claymores started to doubt and ask themselves of what was the point of being there because of how hostile and yoma infested the north was. Not sure tho
I love this anime, and I just can't understand why this is not as famous as other shonen animes are! I always heard of naruto, bleach, code geass, onepiece and others, even mirai nikki and another, but this anime is totally unknow! Why?? I consider this better than mirai nikki or ao no exorcist, but I never heard of see anything about Claymore, (sorry for my english)
I know it is a 4 year old comment but the anime and manga is very gorey and dark. Not really something kids who watch Naruto, one piece etc would watch so not a suprise that it did not get such a great audience. Majority of people in the west that watch anime and read manga does so illegally. Which means that Claymore could be the most popular anime in the west but because most of the people in the west do not buy the anime or manga then the authors and publishers won't know or care.
Truly a badass character A no-nonsense type of villain - simply entered the scene, transformed, and proceeded to take out 4 of the 5 strongest enemies there with relative ease Only thing he did wrong was ignoring the “small fry” as he put it - he had 2 or 3 solid chances to instantly kill Clare whenever she attacked him But instead he just pushed her away, doing which ultimately ended up serving as his demise
Fire Dragon Damn right, she is. Teresa was so beastly, the author had to kill her off in order to advance the story, lol. And of course consequently, he was "forced" to bring her back for the grand finale in order to wipe out that "delusional bitch!! a.k.a Priscilla", lol.
Fire Dragon A season 2 to wrap everything up would be pretty neat. But at the moment, it seems anime studios are too "afraid" to undertake such a task. I guess we'll have to wait a while for a new anime adaptation of claymore.
The did pretty well until the last 2 episodes and change the contest between Flora and Claire. Honestly if they could retcon the last two EP's they could pick up from there.
i remember watching this anime when i was 7 years old with my elder sister, im 16 now. and when I grew up, i thought this was a famous anime because the plot was so well-made, and everything about it screams epic. but i was wrong :( claymore is such an underrated anime... it's a shame that not many anime fans knows about this.
People underestemated her bcuz she is a quarter. The whole premisse is that she is not a half yoma like the others, so by proxy they think she should be weaker than the rest of them. And thats where she shines. By being a quarter, she can pull stunts like this one. Going almost fully awakened and getting back.
The japanese voices are beautiful for these characters. I love how Deneve's sounds, and Helen's is really cool as well. I'm pretty sure Deneve's voice actor also plays Satsuki from Kill la Kill, and Helen's sounds like she's also in Bleach, but I can't remember which character. And that noise at 13:18, we all know that noise. that's the sound of someone coming extremely close to awakening.
The two guys before me are wrong. The dub sucks except for one single thing; They added a distortion effect whenever an awakened being speaks. That was a fantastic change that made them seem very other-worldly and I wish the JP team had done the same. Other than that one & only change, the EN dub is strictly inferior.
The thing that pissed me off the most is that they killed Flora. She is a strong Claymore and her Windcutter is almost on par in speed with Flash Sword. She could be a useful comrade in their journey to take down Organization. Plus, it would be so cool seeing her used her Windcutter to take down a Yoma, just like Irene.
Yea, and the form she actually takes towards the end is just pure badass in the manga :D Sad that they didn't stay with canon towards the end there, but they had to finish up the anime, I guess...
Yeah. During this fight she fully awakens and Jean sacrifices herself to bring her back. The fight with Priscilla doesn't happen in the North, and the manga did it better. Hopefully they can pull a Brotherhood with Claymore. I think in the current climate, with updated animation and fights it would be extremely well received.
Never watch any anime this full of action with such subtle, but great plot. The characters were so realistic that I felt their emotions vividly and like I was there. Manga is finished. If this anime were to conclude, its easily top 3 for anyone enjoys something different than the typical tropes of superhero always wins and has catchy one liners and never gives up
the characters were developed so fucking well in the manga. the interweaving storylines simultaneously happening throughout the duration of the plot was a delight to read, even more so on the second time through. execution of action in the anime is pretty flat but it is done with such mastery in the manga. i love how real the characters felt as people, the emotions and feelings were so VISCERAL and raw. i felt that yagi norihiro had purposeful intention when writing claire as a protagonist. she pulls through in every scenario not because of plot armor but because of who she is as a person, with emphasis on her humanity and human heart. and how the claymores have a bond of sisterhood and shared understanding of their pain, suffering, and trauma, this is how claire just barely scrapes by surviving her life or death encounters. gosh, it is so beautifully written. yeah... ive gotten make video essays or a blog analyzing this manga one day.
Rigardo is such a villainous baddie. Calling his opponents impressive but chopping them to pieces, how he just ignores Claire at 3:18 and that roar is one of the best I've ever heard up to this day!
Think? Man, I KNOW so, the reason he lost in the end was because he severely underestimated the psychological trauma of seeing their friends being slaughtered before their very eyes would have on them. Rigardo never bothered to kill the weaker Claymores first, he focused all of his attention on the leaders. This lead him to ignore Clare until she cut his arm off. Had Rigardo focused on dispatching the small fries first, he'd probably never have lost and the entire force would be decimated.
whats impressive about guts is hes an ordinary human no yoki powers to help hes just pure raw will power and skill. even his berserk armor no ordinary human can withstand the stress it puts on his body
+Mysterious Swordsman clare isn't even half Yoma though. She's closer to being full human than the rest of the Claymores. The DNA that was used on her transformation was thag of Teresa and Teresa was half Yoma, not "full"
Matt _ Exactly!!! She isn't even half yoma, she's a quarter. Even Guts admitted in an episode that he borrowed some power from skull knight after eclipse scene.
We ALL LOVE CLAYMORE , the anime is a rare gem! There has to be some sort of sequel ( just alter the last few episodes a bit) or a reboot , WE ALL WANT TO SEE MORE CLAYMORE!
Even if he is only secondary in the story, Rigaldo remains my favorite antagonist in this manga. Not just for its super cool design, but also for its character. He loves fighting and wants to fight powerful opponents who give him a real challenge. He is not as arrogant as the other Awakened Beings and he knows how to recognize the strength of his enemies and even compliments them (like he does with Clare when she kills him). A demon capable of honor and respect. That's why Rigaldo is a great antagonist.
This has to be one of the best introductions to a character ever! My fucking God! Rigardo comes from nowhere and casually brutally murders the strongest characters introduced until that time and that fucking roar after he kills Flora is mind blowing!
There will never be a season 2 for this lol with the way they ended the anime with Claire fighting Priscilla just ruins everything. They’ll have to start all over again from the very beginning
I thought the manga was quite interesting. I called the underlying plot, but only because it was so well constructed I was able to logically put all the pieces into place before the reveal. And the twist wasn't the whole focus, it was more how this secret backstory was influencing all the events, and how the conspiracy was being undermined and backfired on the organization. It left you rather unsure who to root for, even though you knew the truth at that point, as this brutal interstellar war really had no 'heroes' with good intentions. It was only two massively powerful forces throwing their forces at each other for dominance, while experimenting upon their own people. Then the living weapons began to go outside their control.
I really love the sound effects of this anime, antagonists are also really great. Wondering why this anime isn't a big hit, really want to see manga story in the anime...
Now me and my bf everytime we wanna say "more, MORE" instead we say "moto... moto... moto... moto... M0T0" and we die every time. Very impactful part of the story
I loved this series....same amazing as Berserk....why cant they make good ones like this anymore....Anime became popular and ppl that watch them are trash and dont like anime like this anymore....how sad....:(
+Kilyén Balázs If you like bloodshed, awesome fights, strategy, tactics and characters with all them feels I strongly recommend Attack on Titan if you haven't seen it already. It has all of the above plus a really good soundtrack and animation.
+Kilyén Balázs You have also Tokyo Ghoul which has some gore parts as well but is also a lot into psychology and morality (no real good and bad characters). It's really amazing. But don't watch it, read it (well maybe you can watch the first season, the second one in non canon)
This is by far one of the most underrated animes ever! I would already own this gem... BUT that lil shit Raki just ruined it for me. I hated his lil cry baby ass SO MUCH I just can't sit through the season. His character is why this great anime was cancelled I bet, he's the only flaw I see cause everything else was fucking awesome! Teresa Lover 4 life!!!
The Manga is so much better than this. Rigardo is scared of Claire the moment she is able to control her legs. He is never like omg I am so excited blah blah blah... he is like fuck I'm screwed. He never picks up a big statue and goes RAWWWWR I've won, which I've never understood. Claire has to awaken one arm and part of her "borrowed" arm in order to cut him up, which she does immediately after saving Helen(and Miria) a second time. It's pretty lame how they started charging things to end this after one season.
Well SPOILER In the manga Clare fully awakes vs Rigardo and even has iron tentacles.... in the anime only has her legs, i think she uses her arm to slow but this can be a mistake... in the anime since they invented an ending, clare "saves" his awakening to fight priscilla( acording to manga she would be defeated anyways....)
Claymore is my favorite anime/manga. I love re-watching it but sometimes I just wanna see a battle scene. Like I already know what happens with Raki blah, blah, blah, just show the battle. That's all I'm concerned about. Thnx for making this video. Rigardo vs. Clare is one of my favorite battle scenes in the anime.
Only anime where i actually respect female characters , here they actually look badass ,not like in most where they are cute with their breasts out , and makes me think only real dweebs watch that kind lol
The manga version of this fight was truly EPIC!!!! It is definitely better than this one, specially Claire so desperate in saving her friends! But still this is still pure AWESOMENESS!!!!
seeing all these new comments on clips of the anime makes me happy!! spread the claymore love!!! AND READ THE MANGA LMAOO im gonna keep repeating myself
Love the voices of all characters, claymore needs a second season even if the Manga it's finished, it's very likely to Berserk and Evangelion that's why it's so good, dark history, pissed off characters, many good characters who died just like that left you very fucked up haha
@@epsilonxvi5675 bruh are you making shit up? i literally finished reading the manga the second time a couple days ago and i cant remember that happening, am i going crazy? id think id remember something like that. i can only think of the bandits at the beginning that tried to get at teresa and claire as a human, but teresa literally stops them by breaking the biggest organization rule lmao. are you talking about jeane and the other claymore that riful and daph captured? i mean they /were/ tortured into awakening by daph's weird pole things so...
When is Claymore reboot? seriously please just do it right this time like follow the manga through and through it’s just sooo Good.same thing with Gantz man these are really slept on works of art I enjoyed the gantz netflix film but it’s just the first time they fought a ??? In the manga would love a full series same animation would be fine
Manga sucked. It ends when it finally starts getting good , on top of ending on one of the worst notes I've ever seen in any manga, ever. The anime ended poorly but it would have ended even worse if it kept going. The highlight of the Claymore storyline were the Teresa flashbacks, the actual main story is shit.
Tried my best to make Rigardo’s release form with the Beastren race in Dragon’s Dogma 2. Alas there is only one Rigardo. One that isn’t capped to 30 fps movement.
Imagine a claymore remake that adapts the entire manga.
Дааааа
If done well, would easily be one of the greatest dark fantasy anime of all time
Best dream ever
Zoomers don't deserve it
I really would like it
What a villain. Calls the opponent superb while getting chopped to pieces.
RentableDwarf Well Rigald is a blood knight
I thought Rigald was kind of a foil but yeah he was honorable in death
This is kind of positive thinking.
rememeber, rigald was the number one when claymore where male, he got beatn after him and easley awaken, that's also why all claymore are female in the universe of this manga, because male easily succumb to the ascension.
@@brotheralaric7177you are wrong. Isley was already number even before he turned. Rigaldo (silver eyed lion) was assigned number 2 spot. He didn’t accept it and chose to challenge him but he lost.

I love this show. It's a shame it's so underrated. Can you imagine a revival of this show in 2021. That would be so amazing
@Osiria_ Rouge yeaaaa no chance
I can't say I am very fond of current "revivals". Both Shaman King and Higurashi were pretty "eh". Not every anime gets "Brotherhood" treatment, sadly. Of course I would like one (Claymore AND Soul Eater), but it's highly unlikely. I dunno
With quality like Wit Studio, Production IG, or Ufotable working on this series... Oh my gosh it will be amazing.
There is no way a 'revival' could improve upon this because the source material was worse.

@@Archedgar yea. No. Claymore is fire. You just got a trash opinion lol.
"You can't accomplish anything by simply charging blindly."
I know a guy named Guts who would disagree with that statement
Andrew Ziegler HAHA, I agree. Century Slayer Gutz for the win!!!!!
If for some reason the creators of Claymore and Berserk decided to do a crossover I would literally shit my fuck

Yeah. During this fight she fully awakens and Jean sacrifices herself to bring her back. The fight with Priscilla doesn't happen in the North, and the manga did it better. Hopefully they can pull a Brotherhood with Claymore. I think in the current climate, with updated animation and fights it would be extremely well received.
@@simplymad6283 They definitely gotta do a Claymore Brotherhood so much lore people havent even seen yet
That’s what I’m saying. It’s crazy how far the anime deviated from the manga
@@simplymad6283 except she doesn't fully awaken. Clare can't fully awaken.
Clare has to take the rap for Flora's death there. She lost her cool and left Flora completely exposed when she was supposed to be guarding her.
Never watch any anime this full of action with such subtle, but great plot. The characters were so realistic that I felt their emotions vividly and like I was there. Manga is finished. If this anime were to conclude, its easily top 3 for anyone enjoys something different than the typical tropes of superhero always wins and has catchy one liners and never gives up
the characters were developed so fucking well in the manga. the interweaving storylines simultaneously happening throughout the duration of the plot was a delight to read, even more so on the second time through. execution of action in the anime is pretty flat but it is done with such mastery in the manga. i love how real the characters felt as people, the emotions and feelings were so VISCERAL and raw. i felt that yagi norihiro had purposeful intention when writing claire as a protagonist. she pulls through in every scenario not because of plot armor but because of who she is as a person, with emphasis on her humanity and human heart. and how the claymores have a bond of sisterhood and shared understanding of their pain, suffering, and trauma, this is how claire just barely scrapes by surviving her life or death encounters. gosh, it is so beautifully written. yeah... ive gotten make video essays or a blog analyzing this manga one day.
3:38 Best goddamn scream/roar EVER
Rigardo is such a villainous baddie. Calling his opponents impressive but chopping them to pieces, how he just ignores Claire at 3:18 and that roar is one of the best I've ever heard up to this day!
So amazing yet underrated anime. This is one of my top 5 most favorite anime!!
Think? Man, I KNOW so, the reason he lost in the end was because he severely underestimated the psychological trauma of seeing their friends being slaughtered before their very eyes would have on them. Rigardo never bothered to kill the weaker Claymores first, he focused all of his attention on the leaders. This lead him to ignore Clare until she cut his arm off. Had Rigardo focused on dispatching the small fries first, he'd probably never have lost and the entire force would be decimated.
It's been a decade since I've been watching anime. This one easily becomes my fav one of all time it's such a shame it's severely underrated.
Clare = Female Guts confirmed
whats impressive about guts is hes an ordinary human no yoki powers to help hes just pure raw will power and skill. even his berserk armor no ordinary human can withstand the stress it puts on his body
thats a retarded comment
+Mysterious Swordsman clare isn't even half Yoma though. She's closer to being full human than the rest of the Claymores. The DNA that was used on her transformation was thag of Teresa and Teresa was half Yoma, not "full"
Matt _ point still stands that she is augmented with somthing that is far over human capability
Matt _ Exactly!!! She isn't even half yoma, she's a quarter. Even Guts admitted in an episode that he borrowed some power from skull knight after eclipse scene.
We ALL LOVE CLAYMORE , the anime is a rare gem! There has to be some sort of sequel ( just alter the last few episodes a bit) or a reboot , WE ALL WANT TO SEE MORE CLAYMORE!
I like how his last word(s) were in the manga a little more. Instead of "How superb!" It was translated to simply, "Magnificent!"
3:33 is just EPIC... That roar and energy wave.
I think this was probably my favourite fight in the show. He was badass.
Even if he is only secondary in the story, Rigaldo remains my favorite antagonist in this manga. Not just for its super cool design, but also for its character. He loves fighting and wants to fight powerful opponents who give him a real challenge. He is not as arrogant as the other Awakened Beings and he knows how to recognize the strength of his enemies and even compliments them (like he does with Clare when she kills him). A demon capable of honor and respect. That's why Rigaldo is a great antagonist.
this could have been a hit anime if it was release this 2020-2023 whichever year you are reading yhis right now
Underrated as hell…
This has to be one of the best introductions to a character ever! My fucking God! Rigardo comes from nowhere and casually brutally murders the strongest characters introduced until that time and that fucking roar after he kills Flora is mind blowing!
And then he was killed by claire.
@@p92827Clare was never a normal Claymore
Still hoping for the 2nd season of the anime T_T
Read manga
Never
K A Z U M A no
There will never be a season 2 for this lol with the way they ended the anime with Claire fighting Priscilla just ruins everything. They’ll have to start all over again from the very beginning
I wish Netflix picks it up and does Season 2, somehow setting the story straight
That was one of my favorite anime fight scenes ever. Just her sheer determination to beat Regardo even though she was outmatched.
Muestra que nunca viste Castlevania o la primera temporada de un hombre de golpe para decir esa ignorancia
This is one of the best fights in anime and in the manga its even better.
so great to watch this fight without the raki scenes. Thank you very much! This fight is amazing :)
I thought the manga was quite interesting. I called the underlying plot, but only because it was so well constructed I was able to logically put all the pieces into place before the reveal.
And the twist wasn't the whole focus, it was more how this secret backstory was influencing all the events, and how the conspiracy was being undermined and backfired on the organization.
It left you rather unsure who to root for, even though you knew the truth at that point, as this brutal interstellar war really had no 'heroes' with good intentions. It was only two massively powerful forces throwing their forces at each other for dominance, while experimenting upon their own people.
Then the living weapons began to go outside their control.
dude, i just realized AoT has become what you said....manga spoilers :(
at least in there we know what's going on, more deeper.
I really love the sound effects of this anime, antagonists are also really great. Wondering why this anime isn't a big hit, really want to see manga story in the anime...
Probably the coolest character development in storytelling. Watashi ga . . . MOTTO!!!
One of the best animies that I have ever seen. I wonder why they haven't release another season for; it's such a shame.
Goated show. Glad I watched it. Good start to the year
100 %. Very underated anime manga . It's even better than Berserk and demon slayer in my opinion
Clare's form in the Manga is far superb.
Now me and my bf everytime we wanna say "more, MORE" instead we say "moto... moto... moto... moto... M0T0" and we die every time. Very impactful part of the story
In what context 😂
@@harmhoeks5996 like if we want more food or to watch another episode of something. I'm no longer with him though
@@FruitBasketyay Pity. I never watched Claymore - want to watch it together?
@@harmhoeks5996 lol sure! I'll bring my gf so she can watch it for the first time too and I can get this tradition going in this relationship too 😆
@@FruitBasketyay moto, moto. i can't figure out a way to contact you without my message being removed
I loved this series....same amazing as Berserk....why cant they make good ones like this anymore....Anime became popular and ppl that watch them are trash and dont like anime like this anymore....how sad....:(
+Kilyén Balázs I know right
+Kilyén Balázs I remember a time of Darkside Blues and Macross :(
+Kilyén Balázs
Watch Ajin!
+Kilyén Balázs If you like bloodshed, awesome fights, strategy, tactics and characters with all them feels I strongly recommend Attack on Titan if you haven't seen it already. It has all of the above plus a really good soundtrack and animation.
+Kilyén Balázs You have also Tokyo Ghoul which has some gore parts as well but is also a lot into psychology and morality (no real good and bad characters). It's really amazing. But don't watch it, read it (well maybe you can watch the first season, the second one in non canon)
One of the best Manga I have read the story is just great.
This is by far one of the most underrated animes ever! I would already own this gem... BUT that lil shit Raki just ruined it for me. I hated his lil cry baby ass SO MUCH I just can't sit through the season. His character is why this great anime was cancelled I bet, he's the only flaw I see cause everything else was fucking awesome! Teresa Lover 4 life!!!
+Vee King Raki is still a good character in the manga. Its just the anime which depicts him as bad.
Bruh read the manga.
Raki turns into a fuckin baller.
I wouldent go that far but he becomes an impressive human.Clare would still mop the floor with him
Vee King the manga I'd superior. As if often the case
In the manga he becomes a chad.
I love this anime saw it 2019 and been waiting for a update 😅
The manga was very enjoyable, great creature designs and fun characters.
Underrated. Needs a second season, we're all begging here..
Imagine... what would 'Teresa The Faint Smile' would do in situation like these, If she's still alive in this episode.
Rigardo would be dead in about 3 seconds
Rigardo dead in a instant
She definitely will kill ALL of the awakened beings including Isley and maybe she can even kill them without using any yoki
The Manga is so much better than this. Rigardo is scared of Claire the moment she is able to control her legs. He is never like omg I am so excited blah blah blah... he is like fuck I'm screwed. He never picks up a big statue and goes RAWWWWR I've won, which I've never understood. Claire has to awaken one arm and part of her "borrowed" arm in order to cut him up, which she does immediately after saving Helen(and Miria) a second time. It's pretty lame how they started charging things to end this after one season.
Well SPOILER
In the manga Clare fully awakes vs Rigardo and even has iron tentacles.... in the anime only has her legs, i think she uses her arm to slow but this can be a mistake... in the anime since they invented an ending, clare "saves" his awakening to fight priscilla( acording to manga she would be defeated anyways....)
@@guldo69Her full awakening is Teresa so false.
In manga she awalend her arms as well which looked so cool
Claymore is my favorite anime/manga. I love re-watching it but sometimes I just wanna see a battle scene. Like I already know what happens with Raki blah, blah, blah, just show the battle. That's all I'm concerned about. Thnx for making this video. Rigardo vs. Clare is one of my favorite battle scenes in the anime.
I loved how this anime story goes
Clare is the lowest rank but her determination make her the strongest of them all.
Only anime where i actually respect female characters , here they actually look badass ,not like in most where they are cute with their breasts out , and makes me think only real dweebs watch that kind lol
thats for killing mufasa!
19:44 the only time we seen Easley's true form for a few seconds.
The manga version of this fight was truly EPIC!!!!
It is definitely better than this one, specially Claire so desperate in saving her friends!
But still this is still pure AWESOMENESS!!!!
Fully agree
It deserves a FULL anime!
So satisfying to watch him get shredded at the end
i dont know much about this show, but one thing is for sure i have never seen a anime character more pissed off than Clare!
lmao!!!! preach
Alex B Guts Vlad Russo and Alucard
Alex B cough Guts cough
I have the best of memories watching this anime when it 1st aired
Same
PLEASE CAN SOMEONE PLEASE REVIVE CLAYMORE! LORD PLEASE HELP!
seeing all these new comments on clips of the anime makes me happy!! spread the claymore love!!! AND READ THE MANGA LMAOO im gonna keep repeating myself
I have seen 200 + anime and this anime is probably one of best anime fight i never seen. Underated
They should crowd fund further seasons.
I'm honestly surprised they didn't actually consider such thing.
*YES!*
12:30 that parts cold, this is when Rigardo knew he was on borrowed time.
Love the voices of all characters, claymore needs a second season even if the Manga it's finished, it's very likely to Berserk and Evangelion that's why it's so good, dark history, pissed off characters, many good characters who died just like that left you very fucked up haha
Ok,... thanks,... now I need to rewatch it again!!!!
Its thirdtime in 10 years,.... THANKS!!!!
this anime looks sick imma watch it soon 🔥
that hair on his pubs are too much!🤣🤣
3:39 probably the most bad ass roar in all of anime.
u have ur mouth filled of reason bro!!!!............... claymore is better than any anime airing right now
Still awaiting for second season after all this friggin years
so true I am the same !!!
You're better off just reading the manga.
I don’t think so It's coming back so you should just read the manga.
A anime that knows how to use a mc properly without sexualizing them
It's a dark fantasy, not an ecchi.
@@Luminus2 It's hard to find authors that know the difference these days
@montrell pregues haha in manga 2 female claymore got rape by a barbaric male claymore.
@@epsilonxvi5675 bruh are you making shit up? i literally finished reading the manga the second time a couple days ago and i cant remember that happening, am i going crazy? id think id remember something like that. i can only think of the bandits at the beginning that tried to get at teresa and claire as a human, but teresa literally stops them by breaking the biggest organization rule lmao. are you talking about jeane and the other claymore that riful and daph captured? i mean they /were/ tortured into awakening by daph's weird pole things so...
Season2! Season2! Season2! Season2!
When anime and manga started diverging ^_^
Rigardo entrance still great tho ^_^
When is Claymore reboot? seriously please just do it right this time like follow the manga through and through it’s just sooo Good.same thing with Gantz man these are really slept on works of art I enjoyed the gantz netflix film but it’s just the first time they fought a ??? In the manga would love a full series same animation would be fine
chris Moore unfortunately I don’t think they will do a remake for it
Manga sucked. It ends when it finally starts getting good , on top of ending on one of the worst notes I've ever seen in any manga, ever. The anime ended poorly but it would have ended even worse if it kept going.
The highlight of the Claymore storyline were the Teresa flashbacks, the actual main story is shit.
Claymore sisterhood? I am all in behind this idea.
So underated 😢
Claymore > Kimetsu no Yaiba
The manga is
So true... So so true
🤣🤣🤣 Kimetsu no Yaiba is perfect
I agree
I think only 14 year olds with no taste would disagree
This manga deserves the Brotherhood treatment!
Yo we should get a full adaptation of the entire Claymore series would be dope right in todays
Anime world
Fully agree!
Claymore
SISTERHOOD
Tried my best to make Rigardo’s release form with the Beastren race in Dragon’s Dogma 2. Alas there is only one Rigardo. One that isn’t capped to 30 fps movement.
In the manga she had to awaken her arms as well to win this fight.
Ricardo technique is excellent i like how he intervened a true captain he is
i wish before i die, id see the anime remade to follow the manga, coz its fucking awesome
Claymore is one of those anime i found by accident and binged ever mf episode at once lol absolutely fire
After watching this anime i couldnt bring my self to watch another anime :/
same, all others looks so boring and bad done
