Claymore is a manga about Yoma who pretend to be human in order to kill and eat the humans. The Claymore are the hybrid of the two stronger faster but still human with the ability to slay the Yoma which they do for a price. They travel from village to village slaying Yoma with nothing but the sword on their back using the Yoma abilities but slowly turning into a monster that they hunt. When the time comes a Claymore will send a black card to another claymore to be slain before the Yoma takes over and so they die as a human.
In the 15th installment Clare showed up in time with her friends to slay Agatha saving Galatea as well as the young warriors Clarice and Miata. Things suddenly don't look so black and white as they used to and Clarice is unsure about returning back to the organization. They choose to stay in the holy city while Clare and her team head forward to destroy the organization once and for all. Miria was right the organization isn't what it appears but hopefully together they can destroy it.
I like Clare she’s a sword carrying slayer who isn’t afraid to die charging in risking her life. She's grown a lot in the last several volumes leading up to the battle in the north. After faking her death along with her fellow claymore's she's returned after seven years to battle the Organization. While she may not be the strongest she's determined and unwilling to give up. She's one of those underdog characters you can't help liking. We've seen a little of Raki but other than knowing he's traveling with Priscilla that's about it.
I’ve seen all of the episodes on Netflix a few years ago actually binge watched them over a long weekend. While it’s been a while I don’t think the anime has gone this far in the series. I don’t remember the girls taking on the organization which is where the story has turned. It’s interesting learning that the organization which has been creating claymores for a long time may not be the good guys after all. I love the concept for the Claymore the hybrids created using parts from the monsters that they have been created to fight against the Yoma that they created. The art is great it gives me just enough to create the story in my head as I read each detailed page. This is only my 2nd manga so I don’t have a lot to base on but I’m super addicted to them. They are perfect for when I have some downtime or when I feel like reading back to back. I already know that the ending is close as I’m about halfway done. I’m anxious to see how it’s all going to play out.

We finally find out more about the universe of Claymore - the origin of the swords and of the fighters, as well as of the enemy. The team of seven rogue Claymores prepares to take on the Organization, seen as the true source of evil. The story advances fast and is again at its best.

Yay! Finally more info on what the Organization is up to (and why it's super-evil). I'm not sure what Riful of the West's plan is, but I kinda like her, as a villain. She's sweet and horrible at the same time.
Raki travelling with Priscilla is quite worrying, considering the fact that he'll have to run into Clare at some point and she's definitely not on Priscilla's side...
The plot thickens even more. Dun-dun-dun.

The adventure continues as I rapidly race to finish the series before my Viz membership expires. As per usual, fantastic story with lovable characters and fierce women!
