Product Description
Product Description
A Claymore - a female warrior named for the sword she carries - travels from medieval village to village to destroy Yoma, monsters who disguise themselves as humans and who are almost impossible to kill. Claymores are half-humans, half-demons who willingly transformed themselves by mixing their blood with monster's blood. Claire, nicknamed silver-eyed killer, is such a powerful Claymore, she can slay a Yoma using only one hand. But she must constantly struggle to keep from becoming a monster herself.

Format:Paperback
This manga is possibly the best volume one, of manga I have ever read. It offers great artwork and a very compelling story. After reading volume one of Claymore I just had to get more and I now have 17 volumes of it. It is my favourite manga and I highly reccomend anyone thinking about getting into the series to do so.
Format:Paperback
This manga is amazing! I started reading it in the morning, and couldn't put it down. I was reading right throughout school. It might just be the first volume, but it's captivating with lots of small twists that make you just want to keep reading. I highly recommend this!
Format:Paperback
I came across this manga looking for something new to read. After finishing top class manga such as Dragonball Z, Rurouni Kenshin, Naruto etc I was looking for something fresh, fast paced, gripping, and intelligent. Then I came across Claymore, it was like a breath of fresh air. The manga gripped me instantly with it's deep, dark but intelligent and thought provoking story. I simply had to read more! The characters in the story are very easy to relate to, there's no time wasted trying to recognise what personallity a character is displaying. This means that it is easier to empathise with the characters and gain a deeper insight into the story. Finally the artwork, what can I say! It's fresh, dynamic and most of all beautiful! So, my verdict is that if you enjoy good storylines, exciting characters, and just a hint of a deeper meaning in a story then this manga is for you! Go ahead and buy it now, and I bet you'll not regret it!
