Huh?! what makes you think that would work? They will lose consciousness once they awaken and wont attack each others for no reason (remember Galatea's surprise when Alicia continued kicking the 11 ABs butts). Plus they had to be on abyssal level to be able to take on the abyssals which is something we have no clue about (I mean whether or not they would be abyssal level if they awaken).

Yeah if Raphaela killed Irene, wouldn't she be in the same boat as Priscilla who killed Teresa? Both attacks to Clare's mentor saviors were by order of the organization anyway. Irene also saved Clare from certain death and took care of her and even trained her giving her the quicksword attack that kept Clare alive through so much. Also tack on top of that that Raphaela sent Clare to Pieta. That could make any alliance really fuzzy.
Maybe half awakened claymores don't lose their consciousness completely when awakened ...

Anyway, I really don't want this thread to be slaughtered with completely off topic discussions as with the previous chapter thread so I will keep quiet about off topic stuff here.

One of my ideas is that in 2 chapters Galatea will tell Clare about Irene. She might have found out about her from the org or something. Well I'm not sure that Galatea will tell her, but I believe she'll somehow find out that Raphaela killed Irene. When she next sees Raphaela I believe that she will finally release her Yoki. Then if she will fight her for a while and Raphaela might say Irene's alive.

It would very quickly become at "LOL, all the cool-kids are doing it" thing if that happened. I don't think Partially Awakening is just something you can "do."
Not sure of Galatea would know anything about Raphaela's mission concerning Irene, considering Raphaela herself was partially hush hush.

I don't think she has partially awakening needs a large yoki relese it'd be like haveing a big flashing sign over her head telling every claymore within a large distance exactly where you are,plus its a huge risk to try it without someone like herself to pull her back.

Although if anyone could would be good at half awakening by technique galatea would be the perfect candidate in my opinion. She is one of the few non-half awakened warriors who has seen half awakening multiple times (Deneve, Clare, Felt Jean, and witnessed a successful soul link with Alicia and Beth). She knows it is possible, which next to will power seems to be one of the biggest factors (Jean didn't think it was possible even though she held her human consciousness as her body completely transformed).
In the past Galatea didn't need to worry about cloaking her youki because she out ranges her attackers and can move before they sense and locate her (unless Raphaela or the 7 come for her...) She released a ton of youki in the last fight so she'll have a sign over her head anyway. The biggest problem for her joining the 7 is that she can't go wherever she wants if she plans to remain in hiding because if she is in range of someone she will be detected. She might have to stay back and play house at some sort of claymore headquarters if she is going to remain safe. Or sit back until the covert ops team needs her. Or she could be a great decoy . Someone comes to attack Galatea and finds she has 7 friends with her...

Still don't see how she would be able to do it by herself though, considering Yoki-manipulation already takes a huge amount of concentration, and Galatea herself commented that what Alicia and Beth do would be impossible for her. (Perfect Yoki alignment)

Come on, both Helen and boiling blood Clare managed to half awaken. Neither of them seem to be the pinnacle of self control like Jean. How hard can it really be for Galatea? Get one of the orphan kids (or cid) to give Galatea a hug and she will make it through just fine.

I don't think it is based only on mental strength, otherwise there wouldn't be half as many ABs as there are now. Remember that Jean was only able to preserve her mind while her body was awakened, but needed Clare's help to turn back.

I was under the impression that the organization probably killed off those who were half awakened like the fab 4 were supposed to be in the Paburo Mountain range during the Slashers arc. It seemed almost like the MiB had a policy going on and some agreement with that AB. 5 half awakened claymores out of 47 is 10.6% (although probably even fewer than 47 with Jeans group getting killed). Considering how many claymores we see die in combat as opposed to using the card system that is pretty high. How sad would it be if this were always the way it had been in the organization? Maybe this generation is just special?
It seemed to me like the biggest barrier that the claymores faced was that it they thought it was impossible to return. Even Jean, while holding onto her consciousness far beyond what was supposed to be possible, begged clare to kill her because returning was impossible. Fortunately for Galatea Clare is an expert at bringing back partially awakened friends . Galatea even taught her how to do it. She is the mother of Clare's partially awakened assisted return synchronization technique. All Galatea has to do is go over a little and come back and she can join the club! No need for full body awakenings until the mechanics of the soul link is explored more carefully (and Raphaela returns ) I don't mean to say that Galatea will partially awaken, just that she is a better candidate than just about anyone else in the series.

Hmm, I would sooner believe that Clare's generation is just full of rare-exceptions, there are several already after all.
If the Organization was systematically killing off partially-awakened warriors it definetly wouldn't go unnoticed, especially if previous generations had people as curious as Miria or Galatea. Clare is also not what i'd call an "excellent" back-up buddy for Galatea, as Clare herself said that she was several strained just doing what she did, and even said it was unlikely she could do it again. She does have a better chance then most, but not one that i'd bank on and risk her awakening for.

The jigsaw is assembling itself, but pieces are still missing. Oh well *waits for D.Gray-man chapter 151*
(In case anyone takes shots at me, that's how I survive the rest of the month before the next chapter.) |
