Chapter 79 will probably be released on April 4th, a month from now. That's the usual release date.
Update: Chapter 79 is being released on May 4th. Yeah, everyone else is disappointed also.

Wow... I was wondering when this thread would be started.

You got me all excited and by creating this thread I thought it was released already... damn...

Well, this month's installment? Lots of blood flying around, that's for sure.

LOL You're not the only one.

Just 3 more days until the release, so I give it maybe 12 hours after the initial release before a subbed version comes out :3

I am so looking forward to see what the Survivor 7 are going to do to Agatha. By the looks of it, Clare is going to lay waste upon her, considering she already slashed the poor Awakened Being's leg to pieces :3

Plus, I'm looking forward to more development between Miata and Clarice, if there is going to be any, however. I like them personally, so I hope they get some more character development done on them.

I'm still rather dumbfounded how come Galatea took her precious time with Bloody Agatha, nevermind little Miata in the background.
She was a former no. 4 for crying out loud...

So?

Galatea was a former number 3, but Agatha was a former number 2 before she awakened and became even more powerful. Also Miata's number is below her strength rating because of her mental handicap. Honestly, Galatea needs to be a lot more powerful than a number 3 just to keep up with those two.

Galatea was not taking her time, she was struggling to stay alive while fighting out of her depth.

No.3 actually. Also, note that she's a defensive. I guess she's the "balanced" type, good at attack and defence. Remember, Jean had the greatest penetration power of her time, and she was only no. 9.

Besides her manipulation of Yoki, Galatea's other asset is the extent of her power boost when she taps into her own Yoki, which is something she's not doing now.

Anyway, I digress. Who wants to bet that Helen would be so preoccupied that she won't have any smart retorts at all for this chapter?

Huh? All fights which Helen has participated in, she was useful. Why do you think she would be preoccupied this time?

I mean she usually has a smart retort even as she struts her stuff. I wonder if the naked hag would be able to keep her on her toes so much that her motor mouth becomes quiet?

I'm waiting for Galatea's reaction to whe she sees Clare. She'll be like: "It's you!" "Damnit I should've killed you and your browless friend back there! Because of you they sent me to feed the yoma in their yoma farm!" :D

Haha!!

On a more serious note, I think Galatea would only know it's her after the battle, since she cannot see or (apparently) sense them.

But that's also another question that would be answered in this chapter. Can Galatea sense them or not? I think she will be able to once she is focused and not distracted or she might just regrow the damn eyes again since the reason of why she took them off is no longer valid :p

C78 is out!
 

Search for it now!

Thats Agatha true awakened face

Assuming that Claymores have to reopen their wounds in order to heal scars....

Man, if Galatea's eyes stare through that bit of blood, I'll go,"WTF". Seriously.

EDIT: That looks so much better. Sick of looking at a naked killer.

Man, Galatea working on the farm. I'm sure whoever hires slaves from the north says to all the men slaves who work there, "You can work for I while and I'll set you free. Just don't touch my daughter... er Galatea..." No one makes it off the farm alive.

And that pic is terrifying. I love claymore so much.

Well, I won't say it's terrifying. Then again, the One Piece I read this afternoon is having a hangover effect on me.

Btw, Is Galatea gonna get her arm back?
I mean she`s blind and no arm:S and fighting a former #2 awakened and yet she`s not trying to kill miata. Now that`s hard work! She must be really powerful now^^
But now her friends are back^^ I think she`s gonna join the 7 ghosts.

Galatea is a defensive type. All defensive types are able to regenerate their limbs.
