The Raki discussion

[lsley]

I think he'll be wannabe imba, and save Clare, but unfortunally to do this he has to jump between her and Isley. So he dyes, Prissy is pissed off and goes to her awakened form, Clare is pissed too and awakens, the rest of the 7 ghosts are so angry and sad that they awaken too, the org comes with Alicia and Beth, beth faints because having eaten not enough so Alicia awakens.
The awakened 7, Isley, Prissy, Alicia go all rampage and the org leaders do suicide.

So after the time of male warriors came the time of females, and than the time of ABs

[hell88]

That would be really cool to see happen.

I guess there's four likely possibilities (in order of what I'd like best to least):

1. Badass
2. Unaware of what/who Priscilla/Isley are, still with them
3. Dead
4. Held in chains for seven years after learning the truth about Priscilla/Isley, a shallow husk of even his former self, and dies a few minutes after being rescued by Clare.

5. Turned to the dark side - Mikke
6. An astute powerful warrior hiding somewhere waiting for the right time to show himself. - Shelter

7. separated from Priscilla/Isley and has been living his own life
8. Rachel
9. a midget

On a more serious note -

I do not think Raki would be dead these past 7 years. He has the potential to be the catalyst that helps Clare transform into something more powerful physically, and/or help transform Clare emotionally or mentally as a person. No one else has that type of relationship with Clare (except for Teresa).

I can see one of Deneve, Helen, or Miria dying before Raki. Raki might end up dying later, but not until he has performed his purpose in the story.

I think they will all live happily ever after, Raki and 7 women. I HATE YOU RAKI!

[Mikke]

I think Raki will pull a Jean and impale himself on Clare's awakaned ribs, just before she goes crazy.

Raki: Clare concentrate! allign your.... Wait a minute.. I have no yoki! I can't bring you back! I'm just gonna die.. OOPS..

[hell88]

Yeah then Clare would probably go suiciadal after for killing him.

Why stop at 7 when you can collect all 47? Gotta catch em all.

Maybe after all the MiBs are taken down, Raki can take over the organization.

That way he would have a small army of Claymores.

[hell88]

I think I might hate Raki even more if that happens.

[Mikke]

Well.. That would really suck!

Because:

1) Whoever gets Alicia gets em all

2) Not even Raki can get her cuz she has no brains..

3) Rub wins

She still has her instincts, a womans instincts say: Search for th guy with the best genes and who can protect your child.

Rub (Rubel?) = Old&Ugly
Raki = (most likely) Brad Pitt

--> Raki > Rubel


But actually I don't hope for Claymore to become harem like

**IMAGINATING**

YOUMA: Graaaaarrrr!
RAKI (with a red cap): I choose you, Clare!!
CLARE: Pikachuuuuuuu!!!

...

AAAAAAAAARRRRRGGGHHH!!!

**STARTS TO HIT OWN HEAD WITH A HAMMER**

(bleeding) Never... never make such comparison again!!

Anyway, back to the point...

Just a thought i got. We're allways thinking Easley is somewhat controlling Priscilla because her infantile state. But what if - after 7 years being influenciated by Easley - she became smart and cunning just like him or Riful?

There's no garantee Raki is still alive, unless Priscilla really wants him as a pet or a slave. If that's the case, Clare and the other fab-6 have lots of work to do.

Hehe, Isley and Raki serving Prissy who treats them like slaves, funny imagination...

Prissy: My feet are dirty!
Raki: I'll clean them in an instant mistress (crawls to her and licks them clean)

I would imagine a kind of similar scenario: Isley has his own agenda, Raki has his (whether to win a harem or not, is the question ) & Priscilla is just - acting like a child. I would think it'll make an insane subplot if Priscilla & Raki turn on Isley. It would be more crazy if Raki finally wised up & maybe instigated her.

I can imagine a kind of subplot like this taking up what 10 manga chapters

But a domineering Priscilla is a damn funny idea-

Priscilla: Gimme something to eat.
Raki: (grovels at her feet) Yes! Yes! I will cook the best southern...
Priscilla: Shut up & get Isley. I want some GUTS!
(At which Raki scuttles away)

This might make some of you laugh but I don't see Raki dying but I do see most of the G7 dying, including Priscilla, Alicia, Beth and yes... Clare too.

But I do not see Isley dying cuz he has a knack of surviving in any conflict. He's a 1st generation claymore for hyne sake and he's still kicking. lol

Raki will live on as a human and he'll probably tell stories of claymores, awaken being and the person he admired the most (Clare) to his kids, grand kids and so on. Well, that's what I think

[PGilis]

I think would very cool if Clare finally meet again Raki - now a cool and badass lad - and along the Fab-7 they defeat Easley and Priscilla.

And then they bring justice to the Organization, and them they help Miria to become the new supreme leader of the renewed Org. After all that, Raki and Clare retire themselves to live a pacific live together. Some years later, Clare will give birth to a truly half-human/half-claymore girl with silver eyes, and decide to name her Theresa!

Yeah, i'm a sucker for happy endings!!

If only Raki had been a male claymore, he'd probably would've been like this >>> http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s...ram24/raki.jpg lol

The pic is from 'Snow in the dark' manga btw. It's pretty good.

[Simley]

everyone is thinking that Raki must become a claymore to be of use to Clare...I'm hoping that there is a way for him to be useful, without becoming a claymore. That's probably unrealistic, but maybe they figure out the MiB secret to longevity, and it has nothing to do with youma, and Raki uses that to become powerful or something of that sort

Or maybe Raki had it all along.

Rubel: ".... Raki... I am your father..."

I'm not sure about Raki living to old age and telling his grandchildren stories about a girl named Clare, but I do see most of the G7 dying by the time the series is over and probably Clare as well.

Clare will not die until the end, and judging by the relationship between Raki and Clare, I would think that he wouldn't die until it was near the end as well (if he even dies at all) or some volumes just before it.

That leaves only the G7 out of the major characters on the protagonist's side. And while Yagi isn't as ruthless with his characters as some other mangaka are, death is an overwhelming theme in the story. I could see half of them falling one by one throughout the story.

Of course, the most likely survivor out of the whole story is Yuma.

The luckiest Claymore in the world.
