Anybody here into or seen Claymore before? It’s my absolute favourite anime series. The genre it takes is that of Action and Dark Fantasy. Basically without spoiling too much the story follows a female warrior known as Clare (as pictured above) as she travels the lands hunting monsters known as Yoma and trying to exact revenge on an awakened being known as Priscilla who killed someone very special to her. Yoma eat humans and can’t be sensed by humans either. Thus Claymores were created by an unknown organization simply referred to as “The Organization”. A Claymore is a mixture of human and Yoma flesh. They are able to sense Yoma even when a Yoma disguises himself as a person. A Claymore’s methods of hunting usually involve slicing Yoma with the large sword they carry. As you’ll see if you intend to watch the anime the large majority of Claymores are women. The men all transformed into “Awakened beings” far to quickly due to underestimating their limits during battle.
Even though this anime is quite action heavy they still dedicate enough time to reveal character development which was very nice so you get to know the large majority of characters in the show. It also goes into detail on Clare’s past before she became a Claymore and why she did, which is interesting in my opinion. I wouldn’t recommend this anime to everyone though. Lots of the fights involve blood
(red = human blood, purple = monster blood) and some fight scenes may come across as being little cruel to some people. If you are a person who likes anime with * girls, awesome monsters and an engaging story and don’t scare from bloody violence. I highly recommend this anime to you 
. The manga is also good too and unlike the anime, which is only 26 episodes long the manga is still going with 98 chapters as of now. I’ll say it again this is my favourite anime series.
