    I get that point, was just stating that it was odd to see so many Claymores fighting 1 awakened being when they were the one's outnumbered.

    It might have just been overconfidence, or laziness on the part of the Awakened Beings. At the beginning of the fight, they took out a few Claymores pretty easily, and likely didn't feel too threatened. It's hard to tell from the action sequences in the episode, but I think the fights where they took down those Awakened Beings actually happened pretty quickly. You can see that it doesn't last for long though, as they quickly get surrounded before Easley shows up.

    I would have to say there isnt enough surface area for a those big giant awakened being to all be in the town at once.. so it allowed the fights to not be basically one on one

    and the way that the Claymores all seemed to be hiding and waiting for the AB Army to get into ambushable spots also seemed to reinforce that they had strategy that the ABs simply didn't care to employ (bad Rigardo, at least be there to command the troops!). They also did alot of luring single attackers, at least for two of the three that got killed.

    but, as you saw right before Rigardo decided to come in, it finally looked like the ABs managed to flush out the Claymores all into one pretty wide open square. Hell, they'd probably have been able to finish the job at that point, but I suppose not without more unacceptable casualties.

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    I doubt the ABs are capable of team work. They are basically yoma, even though they were born from humans. Half of their thoughts should be occupied by the strive to eat guts. Plus they are overly arrogant all the time. That's why it's likely they just marched into the town and each began seeking opponents on his own. As it is, I think Easley has stretched the cooperative abilities of ABs to their maximum simply by collecting an army of them.

    Like (I think) somebody said earlier, if it was possible to control the ABs even more than this, the organization wouldn't be using Claymores but ABs as well.

    I think Easley might call the whole thing off. He'll realize that Raki wants to see Clare so much and perhaps might use Raki for something. Who knows what though...

    That might be the case or it might not be. After all, Easley himself ordered the attack already knowing Raki was looking for a Claymore. If Easley truly does have some plans for Raki and it's not simply that he keeps him around to keep Priscilla happy, then those plans might in fact benefit from the shock Raki would suffer should he find Claire dead. Or of course it could be like you said and he intend to have them fight each other, or something. It's hard to say. Easley doesn't seem to be a man of too many words.

    Holy Shyte.

    Can't wait for next episode. Now that they've started the carnage already, I'm really wonder about what's going happen in the next five episodes, especially at this pace.

    Rigardo=Ingrit guardian from FF VIII. So Rigardo got his nickname from when he was a claymore I presume? Didn't look much like a lion to me, from the looks of his normal form. And Easley's the only one who likes to appear as a claymore, out of all ABs so far, unless he was blonde and blue eyed as a human...

    Rigardo's cool, but SOMEONE KILL THE BEAST!!!

    Blue eyes implies he's not appearing as a Claymore. Claymores have silver eyes, which is why the girls are called "Silver Eyed Witches" by commoners. They're also not supposed to be blond per se, more of a really washed out blond/white.

    I'm still waiting for Riful to come and save the day. She'll snatch up Clare and Jean and run away! Maybe she'll even grab a few more if she notices their semi-awakened status.

    Claymore meets classical music
    Ileia - Allegretto (Mozart: Piano Sonata in A major, K. 331 - III: Alla Turca: Allegretto

    This is a short AMV I came across just now. It's some Claymore action sequences set to Mozart. I'm not sure if I'll ever get tired of watching it... I ran through it five times before finally jumping onto GotWoot. The credits section is a nice touch.

    Yeah yeah, I know most of the GW community isn't really into AMVs, but I think some Claymore fans may find this interesting. Back to WMPC...

    Damn, Rigardo just whopped their asses to hell lol, nothing to say but "pwnd."

    Also, i dig his lion-mode, much cooler than the other huge alien-like weird awakened ones.

    And if he could spank em so easily one can just imagine how big Easleys potential can of whopass is compared to that. o.O

    Go to Eclipse's home site, and head to the Archive/Claymore. There are all the eps listed. I checked both xvid and h264 ep 18 torrent links over there, and they work.

    Edit: In fact the links in this thread seemed to work as well. I wonder what you were talking about...

    Rigardo looses control when he gets pissed. I'm guessing that's how he'll die. that's gonna be interesting to see as he's about the calmest person in the show (barring the organization guys)
