The story did roam freely towards the end of what I hope is a story arc and NOT the series. What did happen to Clare and Priscilla? Wasn't this Clare's story? And not Miria's. If the fate of this series was decided by a bunch of fanboys in Japan, that sucks big time. What about the rest of the world? Don't we rate? I started reading Claymore back when volume #3 came out, does this mean that VIZ will drop the title too? It is going to be a loooonnnggg month until the next chapter gets released, if ever.
