View Full Version : Claymore - Requests for new threads
NoSanninWa
2007-05-02, 12:01
Since the Claymore forum is limited (only Mods and Admin can create new threads), this thread serves as a way to request a new thread to be created.
Please post here if you wish to request a new Claymore thread. Please bear in mind that we will only accept reasonable requests, we wish to maintain the focus within the forum and cut down on the noise (so no pointless threads cluttering up the place).
Don't forget that you may still post in existing threads as usual, the only restriction is that you may not create new threads within this particular forum.
Anime spoiler thread. A thread that the manga people who are watching the anime can discuss the anime openly without fear of retaliation. :)
No spoiler tags.
Let them go and discuss this to their heart's content. :)
Like in Code geass section? as example?

Like Code Geass you say... as in "Spoilers & Speculation" or something more specific?
Why do you have to tag spoilers in a spoilers thread?
Just a few suggestion for new threads ^^
- Seiyu Appreciation Thread
- Quotes Thread
- Ost Opening and Ending Disucssion Thread
- [Manga] Favorite Claymore

I'll take care of those Seiyu Appreciation. Music and Quotes threads right away.
Edit: There you go! We've not got a full quorum of our most important thread types. :D
In the future, I'm sure it must has "Who is your favorite Claymore?" thread. :DA favorite Claymore thread needs to wait until after we have a few more Claymores. It won't be too much longer, so the manga readers will just have to wait.
I'll take care of those Seiyu Appreciation. Music and Quotes threads right away.
Thank you for considering and accepting thread request : )

Kanon - Spoilers & Speculation (for experienced Kagikkos only) (http://forums.animesuki.com/showthread.php?t=38369)
Kanon - Speculation & Theories (for first time viewers) (http://forums.animesuki.com/showthread.php?t=38346)
Renamed threads:
Claymore - Speculation & Theories (for first time viewers)
Claymore - Spoilers & Speculation (for experienced Claymore readers only)
(or something to that effect) :D
And xris' intros to both threads says exactly what each thread does. :)

I also think a [Manga] Spoiler Venting Thread would be nice pertaining to the week's episode .
This isnt speculation thread but some times manga reader do get the urge to vent and spoil about that episode or the coming one

I'm inclinded to agree. It has worked out very well in the Bleach forum to give manga readers a place to spout off about the latest episode without annoying non-manga readers. Hold on while I think about the best way to write up one here.
In the future, I'm sure it must has "Who is your favorite Claymore?" thread. :D
Yes. Someone please kindly do a poll on this.
Thank you.

We've created a lot of threads really quickly, so I would like to let the forum settle in a bit before creating another optional thread like YKYWTMCW or ridiculous pictures. Actually I rather hate YKYWTM threads since they are so repetive and simplistic with only every 20th post actually being clever or funny.
As for a ridiculous pictures thread, there will be one. Though I'd like to give the forum a few days to grow into the threads we already have.
What i think, we are missing here. A Link collection. or at last some Links to their official Pages of Claymore. Where there some post, besides the first starter post of the anime, with links?
How about a Nick Name thread? But it is spoilerish. We can discuss about the how they got their nicknames and such.

Sorry, but we are not a yellowpages, we are a discussion forum and that just isn't a discussion.

No point. All the nick names are pretty obvious.
The big exception are
"Smiling Teresa" and "Black Alicia".
I'm pretty certain "Smiling Teresa" 「微笑みのテレサ」 is the author's way to play with the name "Mona Lisa's Smile"(モナリザの微笑), although it is not the reason in the story. No "FAINT" smile, gosh.

Two exceptions are not a reson to have a thead for it. Besides, I'm sure there will be a better venue for discussion of those names eventually.

I'm not begging for the new thread. I just point out that not "all nickname are obvious", and there are not only two not so obvious nicknames. Those two examples just stand out for being not so obvious.
For more example,
膂力のソフィア
Sophia of Back Body Strength
By adding one more example, I don't mean that there are only three exception. This nickname makes more sense if you know some oriental culture.
Besides, I'm sure there will be a better venue for discussion of those names eventually.

I suppose a 'Favorite Claymore Poll' can surface once we pass the Teresa arc and Clare's first Hunt. :D If we did it now, us who follow the manga will spoil the entire story for the others.
NoSanninWa
2007-05-15, 14:26
Indeed. I'm already considering that. There's no need to ask for the "Favorite Claymore Poll" before we have more than 2 Claymore to choose from. Let's wait to introduce most of the characters from the OP first.
Do you think the poll should include "you know who"? I think probably.
That's what I'd suggest. Without spoiling anything by the generic name, but I think a popularity poll should be held at the end of "The Slashers".

If there are nitpicky plot holes you'd like to pick on then please post the start of that new thread here and I'll consider moving it to a new thread.
(If I like your start I'll move it, if I think you've got good points I'll write it up myself and if I disagree I apologize.)
I do have a suggestion regarding Favorite Claymore Polls Thread , kindly consider .
As there is a New Arc to Claymore manga why not have two polls . One with the Abyssal ones and one without, more on the lines of the anime . The one with Abyssal ones can be more on the lines of manga and the other one can be leaning towards the anime.
Also I do thinks it’s a tad bit early for the polls thread to take place but within/around 4/5 episodes most of the Claymores will be likely introduced

I mentioned this in the Ep 9 thread but a speculation thread on just what is on a Claymore's body that makes them so repulsive... It could be that Teresa had her 'mark' on her stomach but Irene might have hers on her back.
NoSanninWa

I'd like to, but there honestly isn't enough information to make a speculation thread. It would just be a wild guess thread and that isn't really worthwhile.
NoSanninWa
2007-05-31, 23:42
Just so folks know, lately I've created a few new threads because discussions broke out in already existing threads where they were only marginally relevant. Since these discussions were of some general interest and likely to be repeated, I created brand new threads for those topics. That is how we came to have these threads:
[Manga] How will episode 26 {last episode} finish the season?
The biology of Claymores
This is more of a "here are brand new threads" post than a request post, but I figured it was still on-topic and should be mentioned.
SimplyEd

Maybe it would be in order to create a "Claymore comedy and parody" thread, seeing that there are so many "fake quotes for shits and giggles" popping up like crazy.
I don't want to ruin anyones fun, but it makes reading through the discussion a bit tedious.

By the time that the spoiler stuff becomes current material, nobody will even notice it anymore.

I know what you were referring to and I'm sorry that you didn't enjoy it, but the jokes that were made were relevant to the episode. As such, they belong in that thread. Even if there was a fake quote thread they still probably would have been posted there (http://forums.animesuki.com/showthread.php?p=974155#post974155) simply because that thread naturally spawned them. In other words, your solution wouldn't have helped you.
I'm not going to be creating a fake quotes thread simply because those sorts of threads encourage people to make up all sorts of strange stuff of which 95% isn't funny and wouldn't have ever been posted if there wasn't a whole thread dedicated to it. I'd rather not encourage people to make bad and pointless jokes.

How about a "Fanfiction" thread?
I mean, not for the purpose of writing stories in that thread, but rather to imagine different side stories.
With so many generations of Claymore and ranks, it´s easy to have ideas of a land and "what if" plots.
Of course you decide if it´s a good idea or not. Since all animes and mangas have their share of "writers":nod:

I'd like the post to contain an introduction to the thread AND contain a fanfic of the sort the thread will contain. The post must be a good example for others to follow.
Please do that, and if it looks good, I will make it into the new thread.

In other news, I think it is about time for me to create a "Favorite Character in Claymore" Poll. Here's my list:
Clare
Raki
Theresa
Miria
Helen
Deneve
Irene
Sophia
Noel
Galatea
Am I missing anyone I should have included? (Nobody after episode 10 is going to be listed.) Or did I mess up the spelling of anyone's name? Should I list Rubel (Clare's man in black)? Should Priscilla be there?
I think that the appearance of Clare's old friend in episode 2 was just too brief to list.

Hello I was wondering if there was perhaps a possibility to create an thread with the title "If an Claymore live action series was created who should be in it?" or something like that.
I think it would give plenty of room for discussions about which real-life actress/actor should play which role (you may even account for the roles of the more important Yomas and Awakened beings :heh:).
Of course its entirely theoratical since chances are low it would ever happen.
Theresa -> Angelina Jolie?? (of course with bleached blonde hair) ;)
Clare -> Cameron Diaz?? (lol I know terrible choice maybe if it was an comedy instead of an action show)
Raki -> the guy who played frodo from LOTR at least he would have to do little adjustment (just keep whining:p)
Miria -> etc.
NoSanninWa
2007-06-13, 05:21
I'm afraid I see that sort of wild and unfounded speculation to be rather pointless. Mostly it is just a wish list of things that the posters know won't ever happen. I suppose that there is some basis in finding actors who embody the looks/personality of the characters, but that will often become an excuse to post lists. There is the possiblity of some discussion about the merits of various actors, but I have no interest in creating such a thread.
However, if another moderator feels differently from me I would not really object either.

I've been considering this problem. There is some difficulty to the thread because it will quickly become spoiler-hell.
Instead of creating this as a thread, what about using Claymore - Speculation & Theories (for first time viewers) to discuss the matter? Especially since this is the main speculation that will occupy first time viewers for quite a while to come.
Does that seem reasonable? Or do you think this absolutely needs its own thread?

I've been searching, but I can't find one any earlier than that. If I ever decide to have a thread for the onsen episode -- maybe a generic fanservice thread to counteract the show's lack of fanservice -- I'll have to get your assistance.
Does anyone have a really good idea for a fanservice thread that will maintain the level of discourse found in our wonderful "World of Claymore" and "Biology of Claymore" threads? If so, I'd probably make it.

I shall wrack my brain for such an idea. :D
So far, first thing to come to my mind would be to re-design the Claymore outfits... Those shoulder guards just make them look 'bulky'.
Other random ideas follow...
...in sailor fuku and in school. Something like 'Claymore High'. Yes, I can see, smell and taste the cheesiness of that idea, but if it were made like Tenjou Tenge's highschool situation - we might have something there...

Sailor Fuku... I think someone once compared Claymore to a magical girl anime gone horribly wrong.
Anyways, I don't know... A fanservice thread could quickly get out of hand and end up very hentai. If I ever do write a Hot Springs episode, it'll probably be a gag fanfiction, in the fanfiction section.

I think it's suppose to be for humor purposes...but maybe we should keep that in the Image thread (for now)

Hey, what about this idea. For those who have seen Bleach, y'know how they have the 'Shimigami Cup - GOLDEN' segment at the end of the episode right?
Why not make a 'Claymore Bowl - SHILVAH'. :D
Something like we take the most burning questions about Claymore we have at the moment and we answer in the most humorous yet serious way possible. That or make little snippets with the Characters like off camera moments or behind the scenes.
Example:
CLAYMORE BOWL - SHILVAH!
Clare: Rubel...
Rubel: ...Yes?
Clare: I'm just wondering...What do Claymores do once they are decomissioned?
Rubel: Ahhh, them. The used up ones are given over to our Job Placement Dept. and are given other jobs as per their individual skills.
Clare: I've never heard of such a thing... Jobs such as...?
Rubel: For instance...
*shot of Irene as a logger, using her Flash Sword to chop the wood into planks on site*
*shot of Sophia in demolition*
*shot of Noel as a wildlife ranger*
*Teresa as a tour guide*
Rubel: Things such as that.
Clare: 0.0;
Helen: Damn it... retirement sucks...

Very amusing. Not going to get its own thread though. Claymore has one of the highest signal:noise ratios on AnimeSuki Forums and I'd like to keep it that way. Unfortunately as funny as you were, I know that there are ten or twenty times as many who only think that they are funny. It quickly becomes hard to find the funny amongst all the comedians who consider the existence of that thread as a challenge whose siren song they must fall to.

I think we've saturated new thread ideas...maybe, who made up those symbols on who's number 1 to 47 and how each Claymore became synomymous with her own symbol...
Thread Title : [manga] Who is more Evil ?
Poll with Same Question as Title : Who is more Evil
Priscilla :
http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/4738/claymorepriscillaoq4.jpg
Priscilla was promoted to Claymore #2 shortly after she joined the organization. She was so powerful she could fight with her Yoma power entirely suppressed, allowing her to conceal her presence from Yoma and fellow Claymores. According to Ilena, this made her the perfect Claymore to fight against Teresa, as Teresa's greatest strength was her ability to sense Yoma energy.
Priscilla became a Claymore after a Yoma possessing her father slaughtered the rest of her family right before her eyes. She managed to chop off its head and this incident caused her to develop a strong belief in justice.
Though extremely powerful with the potential of becoming #1, Priscilla was still a child and mentally weak when she received the order to execute Teresa. While she was polite and fair in combat, her view of the world was entirely black-and-white: every person and action in this world was either right or wrong, with no room for grey. She was the only Claymore sent to execute Teresa who actually believed Teresa deserved to be executed.
This blind faith of hers would ultimately cause her to lose all her humanity and altruism when she was defeated by Teresa. Confused and frightened as to why a righteous person like her could not defeat a murderer, she attacked Teresa in a fit of blind rage and self-righteousness, releasing too much of her Yoma power and eventually turning into an Awakened Being. Immediately thirsting for blood, she decapitated Teresa, amputated Ilena's arm, and killed Noel and Sophia, in front of a horrified Clare, before flying off.
It is not known why Clare was spared at this point. According to Riful, Priscilla is said to have killed all the men, women, and children in every town she visited as an Awakened Being, but the same way she didn't kill Clare, she didn't harm any little girl, as if they "didn't even get reflected in her eyes."
As an Awakened One, Priscilla is a winged humanoid about 2m tall with a single horn on her forehead. She later on teams up with the Abyssal One Isley, but the details of their encounter are unknown. Riful originally said that Isley had defeated her, but after encountering them, she now believes that Priscilla is actually stronger than any of the Abyssal Ones, including Alicia, and is Isley's master.
Priscilla is currently acting like a human child and seems to be attached to Raki for unknown reasons.
Ophelia :
http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/6390/opheliaxp1.jpg
When Ophelia was a child, her beloved brother died protecting her from Priscilla. This caused Ophelia to deeply hate all Awakened Beings and she vowed to take revenge on the "one-horned monster".
Ophelia eventually became Claymore #4. Though powerful, she developed an incredible thirst for killing, especially Awakened Beings or partially Awakened Claymores. She murdered others indiscriminately for the fun of it, and even killed humans while slaughtering all witnesses to avoid punishment. She also enjoyed torturing and played sadistic "games" with her opponents in battle. Even other Claymores considered her a "monster".
Her special fighting technique is "rippling" her sword by waving it back and forth at great speed. This technique is extremely difficult to dodge or block, even for an opponent who can predict her movements, such as Clare.
Ophelia was assigned to fight with Clare against an Awakened Being, but she tried to kill Clare and Raki instead as she suspected that Clare was partially Awakened. She almost succeeded, but was stopped by Ilena, who severely wounded her.
Badly wounded and furious at her defeat, Ophelia released all her Yoma energy and Awoke, becoming a serpentine creature, similar to the Lamia from Greek Mythology. Despite her hunger and desire for guts, Ophelia doesn't realise she's awakened until she caught a glimpse of her reflection in a lake. She was killed by Clare with the assistance of Ilena's Quick Sword technique and her own suicidal tendencies.
Her character and death scene bear some similarities to the character Ophelia from Shakespeare's play Hamlet.
* Major Similarities :
- Both are connected to each other and share a somewhat common history
- Both have child like innocence and demeanor
- Both have twisted sense of justice which overshadows logic
- If you strip them to the core both are not truly evil
- Both wont hesitate to take out their own comrades for their justice
- Both did go past their limits due to emotional stress
- Both are Tensai, at being Effective killers
* Major Diffrences :
- Priscilla is more naïve and her sense of justice is more twisted
- Ophelia is more demented and sadist
* So out of the two who is more Evil ?

It takes a lot of time to contribute to the compare and contrast thread. Trust me. I tried to compare Alicia(honor student and teacher's pet) to Clare(deliquent and underdog). It wasn't easy. On the other hand, it's easier to make the ridiculous comparison thread. Like "Hey! it reminds me that bleach monster". "Hey! It's Highlanders' mile mile long sensor". It is as good as blogging.
I like to see the thread about personality analysis.

This was brought up a little while ago. It was decided that it would be best to create a broader topic, The world of Claymore, and discuss the Organization there. With the dearth of discussion about the Organization since then, I cannot see creating an entire thread just for that one element.
Please discuss the Organization and MIBs in: The world of Claymore

Here's one...Favorite "event".
Events in both the manga and anime (separate, maybe?) that shocked you and maybe changed your initial perception of your favorite character and future story arcs...it could also include fight scenes.
examples: Irene showing up alive and saving Clare's behind, Teresa getting her head cut off or maybe Clare shoving her tongue down Raki's mouth (lucky brat)...
I really have become a huge fan of Claymore, and thankfully I have already read all of the manga to the latest issue.
What I want to request to the mods is the inclusion of a thread that quite describes and explains thoroughly the dynamics and history that follows between Clare and Raki.
After watching 14 anime episode plus all of the manga, I have built up some interesting ideas on my head. Of course, this idea will be strictly adhered to the observations I have made from the manga.
And it will also pay important comparisons as to Clare's lifestyle with Teresa.
The mods can keep eye to make discussion as informative and non-farfetch'd and keeping it as less spoilerful as possible.
I have really good theories on what I believe Yagi-sensei has hinted either implicitly or explicitly about those two.

How about just a thread for relationships of any kind between all characters? Seriously, I can rant on forever how terrible Raki is but I am sure nobody wants to hear that now. To be fair, it should be a thread for all, not just Raki and Claire. It would be an obvious flame bait.
What about a Pool about Raki's acceptance? There's many people whinning about him with no good reason whatever.
Raki needs some love here. :)

That's right! They just hate the lad maybe because his time onscreen is sort of worthless and whiny, and that time should be well ought alloted to other characters like Miria, or Galatea, or Helen and Deneve, or Clare.
I do not harbor any particular dislike for him.
My hopes that I have in store for Raki is that he may at least grow-up to the same caliber of the adult Kai from Blood+.

Or maybe you guys just want to see Raki hook up with Clare.
As for why people dislike Raki, no, that is not it. He keeps saying he wants to support/protect Clare and so on, but what he did is just the opposite. In Ophelia arc, he endangers himself and Clare by following Clare when he knows that she is always on dangerous mission and he deliberately disobeys her. Results? Almost get Clare and himself killed. Clare was distracted because of Raki when fighting with Ophelia and being hunt down after that because she has to be awakened to save Raki! For your information, it is true that there was nothing he could have done for Clare. If being a mindless, over-enthusiastic idiot is his way to protect his love ones, may God help those he loves.
If he wants to become a male claymore or get some steroid, even that would be a better solution.

I can't deny. They make a cute couple! :D
But, as far i can tell after watching episode 12, Clare was already in danger even before Raki show up. After all, Ophelia already got her and was "tasting her". God knows what a crazy b*t** like that would do with Clare if Raki haven't show up. I sincerely doubt Ophelia would stop. :heh:
Of course, Raki disobeys Clare and that was his mistake. But would Clare be any better all alone, against an one-digit Awaked One and a crazy sadist Claymore who takes no prisioners and no witnesses? We already saw the answer in episode 13. :eyespin:
I think instead an over-enthusiastic idiot, Raki is more like a silly boy in love who can't think straight because the only thing he can see before his eyes is the woman he loves, nothing else. I think he's trying to prove his worthy to her no matter the circunstances. In other words, he's a boy trying to prove to the woman he likes he's a man, too.
Anyway, he definitely needs to grow a little, and train harder too.
Yay, I can image the next poll would be "Who is the most beautiful Claymore?" thread, as this idea spread throughout all other Claymore BBS for months. :)
I think you were not heard correctly by that time.
NSW, any chances this might happen?, given the apparent lack of fanservise in the series, We still have those beautiful faces to look upon, what do you think? ^__^
This is different from the favorite poll, given I don’t have Raki and Rubel (ugh…not cute) as choices!

Nope I don't forsee such an event. Just be glad that I am going to have another favorite Claymore poll in a few more episodes. (As well as a third after the series has ended.) I see no reason to have a beauty pagent as well.
It's far more likely that I'd have a favorite Awakened One poll. I'm not saying it might happen, but it is a possibility which becomes quite likely if someone would go to the trouble of making good 100x100 images of every Awakened One in the series. (So that the poll could be properly illustrated.) That would even be a chance for Ophelia to finally feature in a poll. ;)

There were also some good features in the biology of Claymore thread on the various Awakened Ones and their abilities. Add a few pics to those, and you've got a good basis to start a poll on.
How about "origin and meanings of the (characters') names"? There is a lot to discuss, to speculate, to discover.
Norihiro Yagi obviously doesn't chose the names randomly, or does he? Some are pretty obvious, others more difficult to understand, others seem random, but are they?
I realize not everybody is interested in these kind of topics, so for you to decide whether in here there are enough of the ones, who would be interested.

Aside from the names of the men in black, do the names have much significance?
Please make the opening post of such a thread right here. If I like what I see I will copy your post from this thread (verbatim) and make you the thread creator.
Ah ok, I understand.
Well, most of the names are the kind everyday normal names, some of them fit the characters very well, others seem random. One can discuss how well the name's meaning fits the character.
Then there are those names as Deneve, Miata, Yuma or Rakel, which I haven't heard before and can't seem to find much about them. Is Miata really named after a car for example? Is Yuma some wrong pronunciation of Uma? Maybe these ones are everday nomal names for people from other countries, who could explain them.
And then most of the awakened beings names don't seem to be any "real" names (Riffle?) or look more like family names (Easley?) or could be puns (Dafu?).
And finally Ophelia or Galatea who are named after some characters that ressemble them in a way, maybe that's the case of other characters as well.
I love discussing this kind of stuff, but I'm not sure how many other people would like to :confused:
But I'll try to do a real opening post with precise examples and explanations tomorrow, it's a bit too late right now ^^;

If you want to help make such a thread you need to do some more work. While you include some of the ABs that have appeared and some of the ones that are yet to appear you have forgotton quite a few.
First, I'd suggest that you include ALL the Ascended Beings who have appeared in previous episodes and name the episode number. (Someone else is much more likely to volunteer to make the avatar if they know what episode to look at.) You forgot quite a few. You didn't include the first male that the Fab Four killed, not did you include the female who was killed by Opehlia. You didn't even include the three who appeared in episodes 18-19. They might be someone's favorite after all. After that you can worry about the Ascended Beings who haven't appeared in the anime. Be careful to use spoiler tags for the unrevealed Ascended Beings since one of those is a very serious spoiler indeed.
If making this thread was easy I'd just knock it off in a few minutes. It takes time and effort to make a good thread.

I have all the avatars done. I just have to watch episode 20 to see if there are any other awakened ones in that episode, then I will post them here. So far there is a total of 13 awakened ones.
I even included Hilda, the awakened being that Miria fought against who was her best friend or something.
Now I just have to wait for the subs to come out for episode 20.

I really appreciate the way everyone is collaborating on this! It's a bit exciting. I think we need to wait on making the thread for a few episodes so that we can get all the Awakened Beings on it. Once everyone on that list has appeared I'll make the thread after the last avatar is complete.

There could even be some ridiculous polls like "Who would be best at Electric Guitar?" ... And that is why we cannot post new threads :).

I would probably vote for Raki, unless his character begins developing somehow. Sure if Priscilla always acted like she did when she killed Teresa I would hates her but now I almost feel sorry for her. I don't even know if it was her human consciousness that killed Teresa or not.
But I loves my Teresa so much... oh I'm torn.

It happened that for some technical issues (and not only those) it's been delayed. It will be up eventually. As for making it multiple choice, we'll think about it.
About the creation of a "most disliked poll", that's very unlikely (if not impossible). We strongly discourage "negative" threads, since they're basically just going to lead to unnecessary bashing.

2007-08-30, 08:09
How about some parallel episode threads where all posters agree to
(1) never mention the manga at all and only talk about the anime as presented
(2) agree not to complain about Raki?
There's now little real content in the episode threads because of the density of complaints about how the anime diverges from the manga and the sheer volume of anti-Raki postings from that segment of the audience.

SeijiSensei
2007-08-30, 10:56
Obviously I made this suggestion somewhat in jest. On the other hand, there already is a whole thread for people to complain about Raki so they can take it there. Also most of the anti-Raki flaming is devoid of actual content and tends to be repeated "he's a wuss" types of comments.
I also don't see why these limits would make an episode discussion "cold and cheerless." That suggests that the content of the anime itself is not capable of maintaining a active dialogue among its fans. If that were true, why would we be watching it? I also didn't suggest ending the current episode discussions either, so if you find a thread without bitching about manga deviations and anti-Raki flaming "cold and cheerless" you can continue to read the normal threads where such behavior is par for the course.
Maybe I should just limit my viewing choices to anime-original stories like Mononoke or ones drawn from novels or stage plays like Seirei no Moribito and Oh! Edo Rocket. Oh wait, I've already started to move in that direction.
the restriction could keep the forum tidy,however,it also make here cold and cheerless.
I agree somewhat. I think the essential problem is that the recent eps were slowly turned into DBZ. There is little content to discuss, except for bashing Tenchi Jr. and talking about manga, which has content, I guess. I don't read manga here so I don't really know.
Besides, "the Raki discussion" thread is for serious discussion.
Please let's not start with the "if you don't like the show, don't watch it." The same can be replied as "if you don't like the comments, don't read them."

After some consideration I think it will be best to wait for the final episode to start the second poll. That way anime and manga fans alike can vote evenly without prejudice. Two polls should be quite enough.

The reason i want to ask this question is because in episode 23...she wanted to become faster, and so her legs awakened and looked like a horse. So maybe what goes on in their minds at the time control what they look like. And if that holds true...then they can model themselves, say have their right arm super fast, left arm stretch like helens and have their leg like clares...super fast lol

As for the thread meant for an overall discussion/series' commentary and rating, it will come soon, stay sure. We usually create it a few days after the series has ended, so you just need a bit of patience and it'll be here. It's become an automatic process in our subforums management. :)

You see some of the awakend beings and they go on a rampage and killing , but Abyssals are a bit diffrent than others. So basically some are of Viloent nature and some are alot more calm ( Like Easly and other Abyssal which i forgot the name of).

It is possible. While I consider this to be a viable and worthwhile prospect, I think it should wait until after the final anime character poll has existed for a while. Otherwise it will be too easy to confuse the two polls.
Do you think that the poll should include "Symbolisms of Claymore"(discussion of the meaning of the symbol on claymore)?

Could you please explain how those two topic belong in the same thread?
I'm afraid I've got confused. There is only one topic----"Symbolisms of Claymore".
In this thread we can discuss the meaning of the symbol on claymore.Here is one sample below.
Ophelia(オフィーリア):http://p14.freep.cn/p.aspx?u=v20_p14_p_0710141608258045_0.jpg
Signification:Wheel - Fortune,commonly means inviolable fortune.
Explain:Ophelia is a victim of fortune - she became the one she hates most at last.

Sorry, but no. Discussion of who is stronger than whom appear in enough other threads that I don't really want to encourage them in a particular thread. I was really expecting to see that happen to the statistics thread and I would be surprised if it was not distracted to that again. I just made a place for the discussion while it was focused. I really think was a thread that served its purpose and is no longer needed. Do you really think it can stay focused on statistics if I reopened it?

If all discussion regarding power levels were directed to this thread it would cut down on clutter in other threads. Not to mention that the thread itself directly relates to the power levels of all the characters whose statistics are listed. The thread topic itself encouraged discussion about power levels as well, not only that, we were also discussing theory as to why certian Claymore's power levels were the way they are and how Awakening affects them, which all directly links back to the statistics posted on that thread.
I have also recieved a few PMs saying that they are quite disatisfied with the thread closing for the reasons given. So I know I am not alone in this regard.
I also believe the post count in that thread should also point to how interested people actually are about the entire thread as well.
NoSanninWa
2007-10-23, 00:59
Very well. Some of those points are worthwhile. While I cannot say that is really a solution to the problems I see, you have convinced me that the thread has redeeming value.
I doubt that the existence of this thread will remove all discussion of power levels from other threads. I really believe that it will not remove such discussion from any thread just because they have this thread, but I suppose I won't kill the thread for this sin. Especially since the discussion has proceeded as you say.
I can't promise that I won't close this thread again someday if I feel the discussion has become sufficiently pointless, but your points were well taken and convincing.

Idea: Claymore DeathMatch
Pitting the various Claymores in one-on-one battles against other Claymores and the various AB that we know of. Claymores from any and all generations can be put up against each other.
Well, that was my inital idea but certain things would have to be implimented so that it will not degrade into one-on-one popularity poll. Certain things like no one-liner replies that go along the lines of 'Galatea will win because she's so cool'. Heaven forbid that someone answers like that....-_-; I'm working out some other odd details as I go but input would be nice. :)

I think it would be quite fitting. Seeing as a large part of this series' appeal lies in its excellent action-sequences. It IS an action-series afterall. Albeit with a good storyline.
Also, it would make for the ideal place to discuss every fight in the series. Rather than just the thread for the respective episode(s) of that fight.
On top of that, it could also be a nice place to speculate on future fights.
And that's pretty much my reason for requesting it.

Is it within reason to request for a advertisment to be made for any who would like to participate in an upcoming claymore RP forums? I would just like to post a link and a decent description of how it will be run and plot, etc. Thanks in advance.

It is our policy to consider such advertisements to be spam unless they are in an appropriate place. We certainly wouldn't create a new thread for the subject.
Since you asked nicely, you may post about your RP forum in the fanfiction thread. Unless you think that another thread is more appropriate? (You may only post once.)

Hello there, I’m new here (an Unproven user you could say) but don’t worry my intentions are good. Now I don’t see it the Claymore forum any speculation thread for the manga –uhmp let me check- nope I don’t see anything like that.
Maybe you guys do the speculation in the latest manga chapter or something, but I wanted to make a speculation thread about a very specific matter, is more like a “what if” thread cause it is something that may never happen though not impossible.
So I registered yesterday and didn’t realize that new threads can’t be created, it is ironic because I spend some part of yesterday writing this. Well the thread I wanted to create goes something like this (I hope it goes doesn’t breaks any of the rules here)
The Following discussion requires that each and every participant have already completely watched the 26 anime episodes and at least be familiarized with the manga (perfectly have read all the chapters)
I’m aware about the non-spoiler rules of this forum, however I don’t think we can discuss this hypothetical situation without discussing the anime ending and the current manga, so consider this whole thread as an Spoiler Fest.
You have been warned, I take no responsibility for any unwanted surprise you may find here.
If youre aware of the spoilers rules then why are you posting spoilers here...

Well what do you think? Think is good enough like to deserve its own thread.
Or if not you guys could make a "Manga Speculation Thread", like I said I don't see anything like that in this forum, at least not in the first two pages, and that Spoiler venting thread doesn't seems to be much about speculating future events

QuickSilverD, very interesting. There are huge debates erupting all over the place mostly about the Priscilla vs. Teresa fight which is being carried over into the Clare vs Priscilla fight. Mods will probably slap me if I start it up in this thread, but the stats thread or japanese manga thread seems to be where most of that discussion is going on, you could just post that same comment in there and see who bites. It could get interesting :).
I also thought of a new thread idea; Hypothetical Claymore Live Action. Who would you cast, who would direct, what would you want it to look like. Not sure if it would be in English or Japanese, but that doesn't matter. Bringing back actors from the dead is fine (so I could cast Mifune Toshiro from yojimbo as Rigald and have him animated by the guys at squaresoft with moves choreographed by the parkour guys from France :D) and pictures would be appreciated so we could see who people are talking about. Silly idea, but I thought it might be fun. I did the same thing way back in 2nd grade with X-men and when they made the movie almost a decade later we actually still had some of the people right.
I thought it might be fun to figure out who looks like or acts like the characters in the claymore world. If we don't make one or there is no interest I might just start putting them in the image thread by myself... maybe. :D

I agree with QuickSilverD, i think it need a speculation thread as I have seen many off-topic speculations out there, and no good place to put it. Why not creating "general speculations" thread?

Seeing how over 90 percent of the posts are off the wall speculations these days. I think a speculation thread would be a great idea.

Out of curiousity, why cant you speculate in the Claymore manga thread? And please dont post spoilers in the request thread....this is just that not a place to discuss the manga.

Like we need a new thread for random baseless imaginings... We get enough of that in the already existing threads without creating a home for them.

That is the point: create a thread for it because there is no place to put it, so people randomly distribute off-topic speculation through the threads. I know I do :p
Imagine I want speculate about the true purposes of the Organization (in the manga). The only current choices are:
- manga current chapter discussion
- Claymore - Manga Discussion Thread... oops, it was closed :/
Anyway it would be off topic (unless the current chapter would reveal more of it)
And why not ? Why do You need a special place for that, another one where 90% of someone's reply would be quotes ? I don't think there is a need to make another particular thread when there are a few general threads (such as Japanese manga, manga current discussion thread or [Jap-Manga] Claymore Statistics, Power Levels, and Theories). I think the way it is is best, but as for now it's 4:1 to Your advantage, and it wouldn't bother me that much so whatever.

Anyway, we're not creating a generic random nonsense thread for people to post any strange shit that pops into their skulls.

With a chapter coming per month, "strange shit that pops into our skulls" is the only thing we have from it. :heh:

We need a [Manga] Claymore Chapter 75 Discussion Thread asap. The chapter was released too early.

I second Fate Archer's motion to have a new thread.

I feel that this forum only has NSW taking care and when he isn't online there is no mod updating this forum. Man, Claymore needs more love from mod. :(
Apologies on behalf of the staff for the delay. Chapter 75 discussion thread created.

We need a 'Priscilla-Kita no Isley discussion' thread.Both of them have very complex personalities,they're not similar to other Awakened Beings.Their heart-to-heart contact is very interesting,etc.(predictions,speculations about them):)
Eh? Each claymore has her/his own unique personality.

=( You're right of course.But they are much more important characters.=P
This thread would be exciting according to me.And now,their contact interests me very much.:)*pure love*

Well, their relationship is rather interesting and complicated, so what the heck. I'll create a thread for it. Enjoy!
"What a Claymore would never say\"
Kinda rip-off other theards, but i think the idea is cool *please don;t trow rotten oranges* *mmmm oranges*
