Otaku Flame

Summary : In a medieval world, villages are being attacked by the yoma, demons that can take the appearance of their victim. The only people who can stop them are the Claymore, a group of young women named for the swords they use. They are half-human, half-demons who, mostly unwillingly, became Claymore. Don't pass this up as "just another action manga," for through character development and the author's unique style, this manga isn't to be missed. The setting of Claymore's story is a fictional world with medieval technology. Politically, it appears to consist of a large number of scattered, apparently independent, towns. In this world, humans coexist with creatures called Yoma sentient monsters that feed on human innards. The Yoma, being shape shifters, are capable of taking on human form and living in disguise amongst humans. By consuming a human's brain, Yoma can also absorb their memories, allowing them to disguise themselves as specific people without alerting any of their close friends or family. A nameless and highly secretive organization has created an order of superhuman warriors to protect humans from the Yoma. These warriors have come to be popularly known as Claymores, after the immense claymores they wield. Villages being attacked by Yoma hire Claymores to kill the Yoma for a large fee.~from mangatraders~

Claymore Images

Quote:The name claymore is thought to be from claidheamh mòr—a Gaelic term meaning "great sword". However, another theory suggests it may come from claidheamh da lamh, literally "two-hand sword." Claidheamh is ultimately cognate with Latin gladius. As such the use of the term 'claymore' for the two-handed sword is considered debatable.

that's what I read from wiki.
"2 handed sword is usually a big sword just like a great sword."
I don't think this would be considered debatable.
what do you guys think? @_@
btw claymore is also a two-edged sword...XD

does anyone of you like this series?

I like this series too...:munch:

I bet everyone here love this series too..
hot chick with with silver eyes carrying huge sword...kill beast like frenzy blood thirsty machine...

I tried to clean this art and did a little changes. what a horrible cleaner!! >.<


soon I will make a beauty contest. =D
you have to find a colored pic of her and put the reasons why you think she is # 1 beauty.
interested? if not, I'll come up with something else. ^__^

do you guys watch anime or manga?
I have read manga once. the artwork.....
up till now I still don't use to the style, though the anime I think is awesome ^0^



EDIT: I've updated the names of claymore. did I miss any of them?

Wow you draw by yourself. xD

Dont worry Dragonfly... i´m a terrible painter.. Actually it the first time... that i tried to paint all character

Look... i tried to paint your image. =p


A good image from Teresa

Teresa if compare with another´s claymore... she is more beautiful.

But i like Galatea too.

I know that it is not halloween, but i found this image so cute:

Good job to both of you in cleaning and painting Teresa's pic...I love it

I like Teresa too

She's hot,smexy and lovely too... she's the most beautiful compare to other Claymores...I love the part when she took the responsibility to take care of Claire..sweet

Other than Teresa,I like Priscilla (when she's not in her awaken state) cute tho
I don't like when she's in her awaken state...
Yuucks

I found this pic cute tho..so I took it (Vane's pic is more cuter :munch
I've finished the 1st season manga and the anime so far..the rest still ongoing..downloaded but haven't read yet

^ vanesinger
you did really great job, considering this is your first time =)
if it was me, the beauty would become a beast....XD
this is for you.......*wink*...............
^mompuchi
actually I like the awakened Priscilla T.T
it's much better than the claymore who are about turning into an awakening u.u
that's why I think Teresa is the # 1, since she doesn't have to use any Yuki to eliminate all those Yuma. although she used once of her demonic power, but it's just enough to change her eye color. her face is still like a doll
I think this image is cute, though between Ophilia and Cute there is a word NOT >_>

Thanks Dragonfly. ^_^

I like the picture of Galatea and Flora... They are cute too. ^_^

Yeah only cool images Dragonfly and Mompuchi. xD


Now more: ^_^

This pic that i made that sig. ^_^

Flora? yeah she is a beauty too =3
you think it's Teresa being comfort by Clare or it's the other way around?
I think it's both =]
and Teresa and Clare are originally the names of twin goddess of love ^__^

i let the anime tel the end but the ending socks the manga is great
