[Manga] Spoiler venting thread (about anime) for Claymore

[Tempest35]

By facial expressions, you mean Helen right? ^^ Deneve too, she's not as 'enthusiastic' as Helen is but she's more vibrant than most 'cool & collected' characters from other anime.

His art really shone in the N-Campaign - he's improved alot. That and designing the 7's new outfits...

...almost done with Claymore beach pic...hey it's almost summer c'mon.

Hey, thats okay. If I could draw, I'd have done all the seven in pajama's and called it a slumber party.

I mean in general [but Helen's expressions are awesome, of course]. Like, Raki's expression in the Darkness in Paradise arc when Clare was going to kill herself. It was brilliant and haunting and one of the [many] most memorable moments in the manga for me. I just can't get it out of my head, no matter how much time passes. They dropped it in the anime, though, which kinda sucks.

I want to see that. o_o

...You wouldn't mind if I drew it, would you?

I wont argue, its pointless.
Well, i like claymore, so i dont mind that there are now zealous claytards around.

Go for it. My one request is that someone has to be holding a pillow.

Art is subjective. Everyone has things they look at and think are horrible, and yet others will gush about how beautiful it is.

...with a vengeance^^

No hard feelings, okay? Maybe i was a bit hardassed about that point, but it was a more general remark anyway. The same could be said about any other series out there.
I like Claytard though, i guess i'll put it in my user panel.

H'm I'm getting a bit curious here.

Since the anime started quite a number of famous VA's have already starred in this series.

However as most of the manga readers know there is still no end to the number of Claymores not yet introduced.

I wonder if they will re-enlist some of the earlier VA's cause how will they ever have enough voices for the N-campaign? I mean we are talking about 24 claymores there.

It could be possible for some of the more silent low-ranking Claymores, but i seriously doubt it.
There are more than enough female seiyuus who can easily fill the missing ranks.

Then again, some of the future heroines have quite an extensive set of dialogue..
Still, i think that seiyuus will only reprise their original roles and the anime adaption might as well cut a few "unimportant" lines for minor characters. To cut expenses and stuff.

I guess you are right. They probably rather spend most of their allocated budget on the insane animation costs of that action heavy arc.

On a other note anyone wondering who could possible be the VA for Ophelia? I can hardly imagine anyone who could voice that evil b&&ch.

[Tempest35]

Rie Tanaka? She did pretty well with Sugimoto and Tomoe in my opinion... I forgot which anime those characters are from so...

Spoiler for BIG spoilers! If you're just reading this thread despite not having read the manga I WILL ruin things for you!:

You are definitely confused. Those 24 include Miria, Helen, Deneve and Clare. It also includes Jean who is introduced in the previous story arc. That leaves only 19 new voices.

Of those 19 how many are important speaking parts? I'd say just Flora, Undine, Veronica, Cynthia, Tabitha, and Yuma. Do any of the remaining 13 have more than a line or two at most? I'd have to look over those chapters in detail to be sure, but I don't think we need any real talent for those 13 Claymores. Those 13 might just say a line or two and then die. Or maybe not say anything at all.

That means we only have 6 more roles to cast for the Northern Campaign, not 24. Big Difference!

Yeah, I'm looking forward to hearing her voice. Though the voice of real interest to me is definitely Riful!

If I recall correctly, other than a few lines for the extras, only Cynthia, Yuma, Tabatha, and the 3 squad captains have any significant speaking roles. Veronica is a rather small one compared to Flora, Undine, or Jean.

Would also have to add Galatea too, though. She's introduced in the same arc as Jean anyway.

[NoSanninWa]

That's what I said except for the bit about Galatea, but we were discussing the Northern Campaign. Galatea is not there.

Or did you really want to compare the size of Veronica's part against the other captains? She had more than a few lines so she needs a real actress.

After checking the manga, Veronica's part is extremely small. She has a few lines in the first attack and barely a line in the 2nd attack. Flora, Undine, and Jean definitely play more prominent roles and deserve real VA's.

In regards to Galatea, she may not be part of the northern campaign but she's still part of that entire arc. In fact, she has even more lines in the manga for the arc than Veronica.

[Negativedark]

I kinda hope

Spoiler for spoilers for later in the manga:

That they do something simeler to what the new Guyver anime did. Have the last episode be the first chapter after the timeskip. Then they got to cast Claris. I'd love for the last scene of the last episode to be the Seven Ghosts.
