I sprinted through chapters 46 till 86 and MY GOD never have I read anything this addictive in quite a while. Not since reading Harry Potter probably. Thank you guys for introducing me to this wonderful story. Also, about the theorizing, my guess is

Spoiler

the demon is Isley. Also I'd like to think that Riful is not particularly sinister and may actually help out the seven later on. I also have to wonder whether the dragonkin will actually get involved in this. I wonder if Raki has the potential to become a successful warrior for he seems to have a pure heart.

[Comr4de]

I sincerely theorize that eventually

Spoiler

the dragonkin from the motherland will eventually raid the island "lab" in attempt to destroy every single research project the organization has developed. In the crossfire the 7 will be forced to do something, of which who knows what it'll be; the defense of Rabona? Bail time? Perhaps going to the mainland itself? Time will tell

.

Oh and no problem, it's too great to pass on this indeed - we only hope that it keeps on its awesomeness and we'll eventually get at least another animated series again

I theorize:

Spoiler

The seven want to destroy the organisation, but I think that will not go as planned, because of involvement of the Dragonkin. With that the seven will either change viewpoints to not destroy the organisation but rather reform it, or tag along with it, to keep the Dragonkin from destroying their race. Either way, neither the Dragonkin nor the Organisation will be completely wiped out, I am sure

On the suggestion of another anime:

It sure has shown that there is enough to build on

Spoiler

without needing Priscilla.

However, one of the main characters and one that I currently cherish for character variation between endless Claymores and Awakened beings, Raki, will also have a very different role if

Spoiler

Priscilla isn't there to guide him, and whatnot reasons there are for those two tagging along.

The cool thing about Claymore is that you can't be sure about what happens next. It's not like movies or books you can basically tell how the ending will be like after a few page flips.

Spoiler

The Dragonkin will make their move. If this 'demon' thing isn't them, it will certainly be eventual. Rubel likely has been relaying information to them, I don't think they'd sit there while they allow the organization and the nation fighting them to develop a living weapon that is stronger than them.

Indeed, though there were quite a few things I predicted, well more sort of had a hunch of who it would be,

Spoiler

for example Rubel being Miria's source, etc... or the Yoma being sent by the organization (LOL at the quote of Teresa's agent after she cleans a city somewhere), but I would've never in a million years predicted the Science! thing

[Overdose]

I had actually guessed the same things.

BTW SURPRISE BUTTSECKZ

Guess who this guy is!

Yagi?

[Overdose]

Yup

I think that's his only picture on the internet. The guy never leaves his residence... lulz

@Spoiler

I can actually see that happening

BTW, there's a guy on YouTube who uploads the manga volumes with music.

Usually fans choose the worst music imaginable but this guy got it spot on.

This is why we need an anime sequel.

[Revan]

Yes, transformers soundtrack is definitively awesome
And actually fits surprisingly well in here XD

[Stinger]

I highly recommend you guys check out Angel Densetsu (Angel Legend), Yagi's first manga. It's one of those stories that teaches us not to judge a book by its cover, about a boy who has a face like a demon, but the heart of an angel.

The art style is quite weak to begin with, but the comedy in the story kept me going forward. Fortunately the art starts to pick up around the third volume, and I would liken its evolution to that of a caterpillar to a chrylisis, and then a butterfly.

How is this even remotely related to Claymore aside from it being by the same person? Well, I think most fans will find it interesting to know that their favourite Claymore characters are in fact offshoots from Angel Densetsu - most notably Clare, Teresa, Rubel, Raki, Riful (to an extent) and the head of the bandits from Teresa's time.

BTW, does anyone else agree that we should split this section into Anime/Manga discussions?

[Shirou]

Could you please provide a link where to find a good version of that Manga?

[BeefJeRKy]

Here or there. I recently started reading on the former and I like its layout better. (Plus they scan Pokemon Adventure till volume 28 )

[Overdose]

He meant Angel Densetsu I believe.

They have all the issues.

[Revan]

NEW ISSUE!
Still have to read it, but I'm excited.

[Stinger]

I like Dietrich, but I know the old bastard has her targetted for termination.

It is inevitable.

[Alias]

That was a pretty good issue there.

Some new plot twists as always.

[Comr4de]

A nice little plot twist

Shit's about to get real.

[Ellipsis]

Just read it. Enjoyed it, cant wait for the next issue.

[Overdose]

Helen was putting up such an awesome show that I thought she was going to die. In manga world it's common to put a supporting character in the spotlight before killing him/her. Well she still might die but I already booked a flight ticket to Japan to threaten Yagi before he has the chance to kill her.
