I admit, I'm right and you're wrong.

This is getting pretty stupid though , back and forth, back and forth

[NobodyMan]

I give one to both of you.

Anyway, I did the google search by your rules Gangsta, here are the results:

"Raki is Cool"- 10,100
"Raki is annoying"- 4,880
"I hate Raki"- 15,000
"I love Raki"- 281
(These latest posts are included in the search )

That said, what does it matter anyway? XD

[Shiek927]

Well look who finally decided to show up

[Gangsta Spanksta]

Raki would be so disappointed in you guys. He is a guy with outstanding moral attributes. But this is how you would google. And that does not even get into the thousands. :P Googling it without the quotes is not googling the phrase.

[Gangsta Spanksta]

Oh yeah, , and raki would be disappointed in your advocating LSD, considering that a chill pill is LSD.

[Shiek927]

I love how YOUR post ends up as the first link in google

[NobodyMan]

Yeah, I saw that Gangsta, and was originally gonna post that, but I clicked the button on the bottom which said "repeat the search with the omitted results included". (whether that's allowed or not I don't know XD)

I suppose, I just liked the picture.

@Shiek: I come and go as I please.

Check it out, he's so smug, he uses smilies that aren't even from this site

I'm gonna take a wild guess and say your Raki fic is still infinitely away from a new chapter

[Gangsta Spanksta]

Yeah, because this is the most Raki loving place in the entire Internet. You guys should be proud.

Haha, I didn't mean to sounds smug. Just being honest.

Err... yeah, yeah it is. Sorry. > <

I'm gonna take that as a compliment

Aww relax. Don't ask for an update from any of MY stories, haven't "updated" since middle-school(at least 6 years ago XD),
not to mention I don't even remember my stories at all XD

I swear, this feels more like an IM with every post XD.

[clarakiss~]

not to scare any of you guys but i think raki is capable of defeating more than one yoma at once. him being the apprentice of isley-sensei, he will most definitely. yagi-sensei wouldn't make him weak again, at least not against normal yomas.

raki swore not to be a burden to clare, which made him work harder even more. so what if he can't jump high on buildings and roofs, what matters is he's a strong fighter now and may be stronger than clarice.

on chapter 92, raki and prissy were already in another town when priscilla sensed raciella. and raki had his sword out again, which means he fought more yoma and he didn't seem tired or anything.

to those who talk down on raki, don't underestimate him - he may be alot stronger than we all think. ^^;

I'd rather say he might "become" a lot stronger than we all think. For the moment, I'd rather wait for actually seeing him cut doen more than one yoma, and, for instance, he did not take him in one swoop, first took the arm, than liced up the rest (with relative ease, ok, but when a claymore goes for a yoma, that thing get's split in half a bit more obvious I'd say.

Also there's the point of Isley commenting on humans "no matter how far they go over there limits in training, their potential rise in power is sooo small comparatively" or something like that. I don't quite remember the exact scene might look it up though if I get to it later.

Generally I agree he will get much stronger. I just think, that as of this moment, despite being able to bring down a singel yoma alone, he has not reached his peak -yet.

There's also the matter of convention: For a student to really become proficient, or a master himself, it is usually requirred to survive and progress WITHOUT his teacher's help. Raki has taken a HUGE BITE with looking after prissy alone and with hunting yoma alone - let's see how that turns out before judging his powers and progress in terms of character

Did Clare killed her first Yoma with one strike?
There are two reasons for the battle being longer than expected.

1- Isley migth have taught Raki that he should always disarm his opponent first. Claymores like to do that.

2- Yagi wanted to make the battle longer because he wanted it to be more cool.

What really matters in that battle is that Raki killed a Yoma efortlessly. For a first figth, it's really good.

By your discussion, I have a feeling there is more to the manga then there is to the anime, which I finished. Is this right? If so, I'm most def. getting it! The anime was very, very interesting!

You certainly won't regret it. The story is much more complex, the characters have way more depth - oh, and raki ain't quite as annoying once he starts growing up
Not to mention the fact that it's pretty cool to see how the magaka's craftmenship improves with the story, not that the drawings were bad at the beginning - they're damn nice, but the continue to get even better...

Enjoy

I think MisterJB deletes more messsages than he posts.

Why?

Spoiler for manga page:

would somebody please explain me how the hell Raki managed to draw the heads of the statues since he was smaller than Clare at the time?

Dammit...
You had me all excited thinking it was a spoiler to the next chapter...

Why the hell would it be in the "The Raki Discussion" Thread?
I know I know...
I just saw spoiler and thought it was for the next chapter

[Shiek927]

XDXD, Good question MisterJB. Nevermind the fact it's perfectly symetrical and well done, Raki is is prodigous artist

Maybe their was a chair in the cell, I don't know
