Mmm....giving it some new thought, while I do agree with you, I also still disagree.
When I said that, I originally had Riful vs Alicia in the mind; I distinctly remember getting frustrated that she had returned to her human form after
seemingly killing Renee - of course, she had no way of knowing about the Eaters or Alicia. Nevertheless, in the presence of an Awakened of similar power, returning to your human form is leaving yourself more vulnerable unless, like with Luciella, you have no choice due to depleted yoki.
But this isn't like that since, as you say, she's seemingly surrounded by warriors; weak and wounded ones I might add, with only Miria really being even a possible threat - so even if she were to transform back; using the very sword lodged in her body, she can still swiftly kill everyone around her - with only Miria, again, as an annoyance -- still, she is more then just a No.1 now, but an Awakened - an Abyssal, so I'm not even sure for Miria's chances.
Nevertheless, it's not just Miria -- like with Riful, their
are other Abyssals or beings with similar power around....two of them actually. They haven't actually started fighting eachother yet (at least that I remember - it's already been awhile since I read the chapter and I'm already forgetting -___-
), but perhaps that's it -- Hysteria is worried about turning back into her human form and leaving herself potentially vulnerable to Roxanne and/or Cassandra launching a sneak attack.
This doesn't however excuse that, like another user says, inertia
does exist in the Claymore world so she could technically get the sword out of her without transforming back -- also, the fact that she can't get the sword out without transforming kind of says how ridiculous she looks like....not to mention, I don't know about you, but I doubt Hysteria herself has put as much thought into this as we have
-- as said before, I don't think she has even noticed the sword, much less planned around it.
I'm already betting that Yagi is gonna
really change up their appearances next chapter with new abilities, forms and all these new things, in an effort to sort of conceal how they were this chapter....one could argue that he already had that in mind, but like Miria's death and return and so many other things....the world, may never know.
Roxanne needs to be more unique, Hysteria needs to be
less unique, and Cassandra....well, she strangely is sort of good, though I wouldn't mind if she had some changes as well (though she is starting to grow on me, predictably).....like that fake spoiler once about Riful's "battle-mode" (
), if the ZAOs start getting "battle-modes" of their own, or changes of some sort....people will cry that this is getting to be more and more "shonen-ish".
Oh well -- people are gonna complain no matter what, so Yagi should just do what he thinks is best; people will keep reading and buying anyway (or if Arturro and the more people actually
do drop it, maybe not...
....their's always time and a chance to bring it all back though).
