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. Clare's first battle with the Yoma of Rabona has left her body drained and shattered. With no time to recover, she must face the creature again after it chooses Raki as its next victim. Luckily, Raki remembers that he is carrying Clare's trusted broadsword and manages to get it into her hands. But unlike Clare, the Yoma is fighting at full strength and thirsting for blood...

5.0 out of 5 stars A New story that is as action pacted as bleach and as long living as naruto, 30 May 2008
Without a doubt one of the most original manga stories out there. Actionpacked, fun, and adventerous, claymore just grips you and won't let go, its as intense as bleach was in the first series and as long lasting and fresh as naruto. This series has already made a tv viewing in japan and is set to be big if picked up. The manga is already 4th in Japan and 10th in America. If you dont want to take a risk and want a story that draws you in but also has dark and light sides, then this is for you

5.0 out of 5 stars A new classic for manga, 4 Aug 2009
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!

4.0 out of 5 stars She who fights monsters..., 8 Jan 2009
By T. R. Alexander (East Anglia, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
As this review is being copied across Volumes One, Two and Three of the Claymore manga series, I will review all three volumes in one.

Volume One:
When a man-eating monster known as a Yoma starts to pray on the inhabitancies of a small village, the village elder is forced to hire the only known people who can fight the demon and win, a Claymore. These silver-eyed warrior women are specially created to fight the Yoma and have far greater strength and speed than any normal human but at the cost of some of their humanity.

Volume Two:
A Yoma is hunting within the cathedral of the holy city of Rabona but by law nothing evil is allowed to enter the city, including Claymores. As such Clare and her new friend Raki must go undercover to complete the mission and must deal with both the Yuma and the cities elite guards as well.

Volume Three:
The third volume of Claymore finishes off the storyline from the previous volume with the Clare battling the Yoma in Rabona cathedral. Once this story is finished with the volume goes on to tell the story of Teresa of the Faint Smile, the most powerful of the Claymores as she hunts Yoma and encounters a girl who won't stop following her.

So far Claymore is becoming a very good series that has some nice and somewhat gory action, and an intriguing setting. The plot and dialogue of all three volumes are well written, and are more than adequately keeping your interest. The only real problem I have with the series is the artwork which, although good in its own way, isn't as good as some other manga that I have read but that is not to say that it is bad. The series does show some promise however and I do feel that it does have potential to become one of my favourite manga. Overall I think these volumes are well worth between four and four and a half stars, and it still has the potential to improve.
