(L) Claymore Manga

[Tempest35]

It's more of Clare has Awakened into Teresa...

But really, she's using the Soul Link technique she learned off of Rafaela's memories to 'force' Teresa awake and draw her out right now.

[DragoZERO]

Still fanboying out here.

I've read the chapter three times already. It is just so awesome. What I love is that it's not an ass pull from no where. Yagi has been planning and seeding it for a long time. Possibly since the beginning. I hope Teresa makes it on the cover of the tank that's released with these chapters. Love to have her on another cover.

[clarakiss~]

Summary of chapter 151 by God Eye Galatea from mangahelpers:

Spoiler:

The One of Kind Title


In fiery midst of the final struggle, Clare finally found calm. Sitting beside Teresa and she tells her the story of her long slow journey.


- Clare: Also, when we first met, those two were very mean.
- Clare: Helen said some perverted things and Deneve even pointed her sword at me.
- Teresa: But afterwards, you guys had been together for a very long time.
- Clare: Heh. Well, Helen and Deneve are in fact both very gentle people who are always thoughtful for their comrades. I like those two very much.
- Teresa: Regarding Jean, that was very regrettable.
- Clare: Jean too was a very gentle person, who always put others first before herself. She said she wanted to repay me for saving her life, so she always stayed by my side.

- Clare: In the end, because of me.. It was all because I could not change back, that Jean, she had to use up all her life force to pull me back.
- Clare: Elena, who I became friends with in my training days, after killing her I was so heartbroken that I've cried for an entire night.
- Clare: I couldn't even save Flora who we promised each others that we would fight on together, also there were Ophelia and Raphaela too. If we have met in a different time, then perhaps we could have been become good friends.
- Clare: There are still so much, so much more. Seeing my comrades who had fought together with me, leaving me one by one, is very upsetting and very regrettable.
- Teresa: You have became strong, Clare.

- Clare: Huh. Like.. like me. Like this... Compare to Teresa, that's really...
- Teresa: Power and technique are not all there is to it in turns of being strong.
- Teresa: The little frail you, who couldn't even be considered a half yoma have met and bid farewells to so many people. And, entering into battle with mutually trusting comrades up till now. That is where you are strong. I never had those before.
- Teresa: That's why it's meaningful. And, that is why you are able to support me at my side now. If it was 7 years ago, I would not have allowed you to do such thing.
- Teresa: Teresa...

- Teresa: Let's fight together, Clare.
- Teresa: From the acquired memories and emotions of Raphaela, and all your experiences you've gained up till now, turned them all into your strength.
- Teresa: That's your true power that's supporting my soul (heart).

- Miria: Wha... What's going on...?
- Miria: Who is that? I have never seen that kind of warrior before...
- Miria: That's Clare...?

- Teresa: Cassandra!

- Teresa: You're still at least a former No.1! How long are you planning on just being used by someone else? It's really pathetic!
- Teresa: Show me your No.1 status! The definition of being at the peak of 47 people. And your pride of being the strongest of that generation, don't you forget it all!
- Helen: What? What is she talking about..?
- Teresa: Oh. Even with that being said, I really don't have much sense of pride in being No.1 myself. But, seriously...

- Teresa: It's rare to encounter another No.1, how about a duel?
- Priscilla: Teresa.... What are you trying to do -

- Priscilla: You.... You bastard...

- Priscilla: Damn...

- Teresa: Deneve, let me borrow your Claymore. I'll return it right away after the fight.
- Deneve: {She knows my name....}
- Helen: Wha....

- Teresa: Let's go. Don't hold back.

- Teresa: Well, that's not the fleshly body, even quick regeneration should be no problem.

- Teresa: So, you are a leftie?
- Teresa: I already told you, don't hold back. You really are a slickly one.
- Cassandra: Someone who I never met just pops up and also claims to be No.1 I can't trust that right away.

- Cassandra: If victory is decided right away, then that would be super boring.
- Teresa: Hoho. You are really interesting.
- Helen: What? It's all ku and ku. This is like.

- Cynthia: What's going on? Those two's movements. It's the first time I've seen this kind of fighting...
- Yuma: But, it feels like those two both...

- Priscilla: Damn... Damn... This is... What are you trying to do, Teresa....
- Priscilla: You both... Even you two.... want to turn against me....?

- Octavia: With the ranking of No.2, I too have some pride in that.
- Chronos: If I don't do this, then how can I face Lars when I see him on the other side.
- Priscilla: Damn. Damn.. Each one and every one of you all....

- Miria: {Those two...}

- Teresa: But those are really strange movements. Different that all the warriors I've met till now. If your opponent isn't me, then perhaps the victory would've be decided already.
- Teresa: If I haven't use precognitive yoki sensing, then perhaps I would've gotten hit a couple times already. It's a amazing technique.

- Cassandra: That's about enough. Please finish me. This is a false life after all.
- Teresa: What? Just ending it like this? You can still continue fighting though.
- Cassandra: No, it's enough. I'm very satisfied.
- Cassandra: I never thought that being able to move around freely without holding back fighting could be such a gratifying thing.

- Cassandra: If there is such thing as reincarnation, then I really want to born into the same generation as you.
- Teresa: Is that really fine? Then, you can only stay at being No.2.
- Cassandra: Even if it's like that, there is no problem.
- Cassandra: No...
- Cassandra: Perhaps, that's even better.

- Teresa: I'm very grateful for your fight with me. I've fought to my satisfaction, Cassandra.

- Miria: That's right. I remember.
- Miria: It's that strong presence from Clare's body in the past. Inside Clare's body, not yoma, but the flesh and blood of a warrior.

- Miria: It's the strongest No.1, Teresa of the Faint Smile.


Passing though the corpses of many warriors, awaken beings, and Abyssal, through the ever lasting time through the ages, now that once encountered fate. Priscilla and Teresa meet again at last.

[scififan]

This month is about Teresa and Clare's chitchat. They go over Clare's friend list.

This month is also about the duel between Teresa and Cassandra. Priscilla must be very distracted by monsters she absorbed. Priscilla misses the chance to nail Teresa. The entire time is about the sword duel between two former number one. Cassandra finally rests in peace.

p.s. Teresa's nude picture in the cover is shocking. It is as Clare, after awakened, increased her cup sizes many folds! Didn't Galatea comment that Clare need to gain more weight.

[Fenrir_valindri]

That duel between Cassandra and Teresa was great to see, Cassandra must have really been something for Teresa to compliment her like that.

Glad to see those absorbed by Priscilla got one last hurrah in as well, denying Priscilla the ability to use their power in the final battle, and preventing any interference in Cassandra's last fight.
To some degree, this was as much tactical decision as it was an honorable one, Teresa effectively denied Priscilla the ability to fully recover by having those 3 break free from her control.

I am guessing Priscilla will be forced back into her human form to fight Teresa here. Her Awakened Body is pretty terribly damaged, and I doubt she will get the leisure to stand around healing with Teresa right in front of her.

[Kaengel]

That discussion between Teresa and Clare has such a huge ending feel. I hope it's going to be the case.

[DragoZERO]

What a chapter. So short! So nice to see Clare sharing everything with Teresa. Really get's the feels going. Then the other ABs turning on Priscilla like that, haha. Next chapter is when the fight really get's going. Can't wait.

[ShiroiRyu]

Chapter here is to confirm Teresa can rules them all.

[germanturkey]

noooooo. NOT ANOTHER MONTH!!! i think the word to properly describe Teresa is overwhelming. she had fun and didn't have to use 10% of her power (unless she can't because she's already awakened?) to easily take down cassandra.

[ellifeedn]

Where did Cassandra get her clothes?

[Tempest35]

She formed them from the dust of the ground...?

[Casshern]

That was a really great chapter. The best arc in the manga was Teresa's backstory, and the best chapters since then are the return of Teresa just now. I only just realised that everything in Claymore has always been about Teresa, and that's why the story was lacking until now.

[jzmagic]

Is anyone else hoping that Claire permanently retains Teresa's body/appearance when the battles over?

[Kyosuke_Nanbu]

No way that would happen, that is Clarie's body and Teresa love her so much to change her.

A little boy like Raki can't keep up with a super dominatrix like her...

[Fenrir_valindri]

It isn't a matter of keeping up, its a matter of her dragging him behind her whip and chain. :P

It really is amazing how much influence one character has on a story, right? It's especially amazing here considering that Teresa has been dead for the majority of the story, and yet her presence has always been there.

It's been a long time since I've been this excited about Claymore, honestly. Having the duel with Cassandra was just....perfect.

[Nvis]

Felt like a filler chapter, but even Cassandra the Dust Eater isn't a match for Teresa.
