I'll just post what I said in the general discussion here to get the ball going .
This episode was awesome. Seen the manga already, but the animation + VAs + music really made the viewing that much better. I especially love Spoiler:
The peaceful music played during the aforementioned scene was so beautiful. It gave such a serene yet melancholic feeling. This episode is great because it gives such a good contrast to all the blood and gore in the previous episodes. And hurrah to have our own sub-forums now. This makes Teresa smile (faintly). |

I really wasn't sure how Tereasa's va would work out since she did Ed in FMA. But while she sound different form what i imagine Tereasa's voice would be like. it did fit Tereasa very well.

Nana.... it is not to much ahead? Spoiler tags?
Well, just now. The Anime viewers see only a blink of Teresa. And they are not sure if it's a flashback or present arc now. You come now with names, that they don't know and other "secrets" that lies in the future... With no hard feelings |

Just finished downloading and watched Eclipse version of claymore.
And I must admit how did I ever dared to have reservations about the Voice Actress for Teresa. I guess her voice needs to grow on you. But they definitely made the right choice. I guess watching the raw in the morning when you are only half-awake isn't always the best move |

I remember someone in some thread or other complaining that Theresa in the anime version didn't have a sense of humor, yet she sure sounded mischevious to me all through this episode, with the Villagers, then grossing out the bandits...

Wow! At last Claymore has its own section now.
This episode was a truly start of a legend. Production team even re-draw some scenes in OP/ED. That was a good sign. Teresa is really cool. Love her both in anime and manga.

Alright, I don't care to say this: I almost cried. I rarely cry but this episode is simply sad. The villagers treated Clare like complete and utter crap. No one wanted to bathe her or treat her simply because she had associated with a Yoma. The villagers are cowards. After they find out that she's not a Yoma, they still refuse to help her.
RAWR! Well, this episode touched my emotions at least. Teresa is amazing and no words can express the superb characterization she has. Plus, Paku Romi is her voice; you can't go wrong with that! Clare was cute when she was eating the apple and even cuter when she tried uttering her name. I give this episode a 9/10. |

That was a pretty huge apple Clare was eating. And speaking of food, Teresa must be really skilled to catch a hare (at least, I think that's a hare). Hares do not burrow into the ground like rabbits do and spend all their life running about, so they run really fast. However, because of all that running, their meat is pretty tough to eat if you don't hang it for a day or so first. Then again, this is an anime and I'm sure hungry Clare wouldn't mind one bit.
Teresa brings breakfast. A young hare. Teresa and Clare appeared together in the OP, so I thought Episode#05 is set in the same timeline as Episode#01-04 Clare. Perhaps Claymores do not age like humans do. Regardless, I thought adult Clare moves fast enough, but Teresa bloody teleports around. |

I'm even more amazed that the hare was caught whole, unlike the desert lizard clare caught in episode 2. Maybe she sets traps?
Well this episode is much more interesting not only because of what people expect in this arc but because the claymore in focus is less "stoic" than Clare of the previous episodes. Action scenes were okay but I hope they save their budget for the more (hopefully) fluid fights in the near future. For now the shows main strenght is the nice still backgrounds and surrounding that show the world.

Damn, wonder if Clare was forced to become a Claymore or if she chose. And it really looks like it sucks. Seems like they go through torture to become half, then after that they become hated and feared by all. Live a short life of nothing but fights and hate, then when they feel they can no longer control the Yoma, have to have another Claymore kill them while the human still has control. Truly is tragic.

FINALLY..our prayers have been accepted...finally, a thread for Claymore..I guess it had to be with this Arc and couldnt have come at a better time. Excellent adaptation by MADHOUSE. Teresa turns out to be exactly the way i imagined her to be and the whole episode was made really well. From here on I can give a sigh of relief and be pretty sure..that this series will do very well since i think MADHOUSE will do the right justice to this Arc
