Claymore - General Discussion Thread

[alanmh]

Thanks for the wallpapers, they're rad. Can't wait for episode 5!

God, Mahou's episode 1 release is terrible. Even after restarting the computer, I kept having to rewind it because the video kept stalling. I went with them because they did good work with F/SN, but I think that i'm going to go with another group if the next two episodes stall.

Other than that, it was good, but the stalling really took away from it.

Also, those villagers are bunch of scared little assholes with no backbone that need to die.

[KiNA]

Fear of the unknown.. Can you blame them? Yoma = evil... anything that have yoma in them = evil.
Believe me, thats the core of most world crisis nowadays >.>

[Bloodseeker]

Hey KiNa, what release are you following? It doesn't stall right? I tried updating CCCP and it still stalls, and I couldn't enjoy the episode like that, so if this next episode stalls, I'm just going to delete these and look for a better group.

Hm? I haven't watched their release, but are you sure it is not your PC that is at fault here? I haven't checked, but perhaps their releases are HD... in which case your PC may lag behind if it isn't good enough.

This computer isn't great, but it handled Nyoro~n's Gurren Lagann HQ releases just fine.

You can try out Eclipse's fansub. I'm running a 4-5 year old P4 2.8Ghz with K-Lite and have no problem with the h264 releases.

Already started downloading them.

I like to take screencaps sometimes, and there's always that chance that I might want to make an avatar, so removable subs are preferred, but I think that I'm just going to stay away from h264 for the next six months or so if I have a choice... (with the exceptions of series that I'm already following in h264, and possibly shows that might want to take a lot of screencaps of) I hear that its capable of running as smooth as avi, so maybe fansubbers will figure out the format's quirks given a bit more time.

I'm using eclipse release.. I kinda like them after FSN .. and I am using their release for Hayate no Gotoku too ^^

after watching ep3 did you try asking yourself, "Why isnt Clare using her sword?"

[Secca]

I'm kinda a Berserk cultist myself. When I saw the first episode of Claymore, it looks really dark like Berserk. ^_^ Those that read the manga, how is the story later, it gets darker?

[Seska]

there is a Claymore Manga section. No hard feelings

Secca I have PM'd you since my answer contained a decent number of (minor) spoilers. You could also browse the manga section.

However be aware that there are major spoilers there.

OKAY!! This is the day, Claymore number 5 goes out so Don´t spoil yourself because this is the begining of why people liked Claymore in the first Place.

You wait This episode is the one that made me cringe!! Now the plot starts for real!

Must see this one, I just hope they don`t screw it.

[Secca]

Thanks, trying to get the feel where this series is going. Having only seen the first episode. ^_^

Spoiler:

.

This scene is really cool. Blood splatters!!! >_<

[the.Merines]

Just a random thought... Riyu Kosaka's music has always been produced by Naoki Maeda, of Bemani (DDR/Beatmania) fame. After listening to the ED several times, I've come to the conclusion that it's quite likely he produced Danzai no Hana as well.

Random post for today. ^^

I agree, Danzai no Hana has a DDR-ish sound.
Great song, let's wait for the full version^^


by the way, if somehone has missed them, here are the links to 3 more official wallpapers (of course, all of them are no-spoiler) ^^

You should at least put a spoiler tag on it.

You have an amazing ability to deny the possibility of anything on your side to be at fault..
