Hi there, I looked through your Claymore tag, I'm always happy to find new fans of it. I was a bit surprised that you preferred the anime to the manga; ike you said it's a fairly unpopular opinion haha. Id love to know your reasons, if any, that you disliked the last part of the manga.

WARNING: YOU HAVE ACTIVATED THE AUTISM VACATE NOW IF YOU WISH TO LEAVE UNCHANGED "New" fan may be an understatement, I've been a fan of the show since it was on Netflix! I watched it at my dad's once, along with Samurai 7, I loved it so much my dad got me the Blu-ray for Christmas. Then when I watched it at my mom's she thought it was too violent (Which like, yeah. It was XD) and so it was packed away until I was 17 (I was released from the weird confines my mother had for me then). It irreversibly changed my brain chemistry. Probably where my love of body horror and creepy human/monster designs came from. So then later on I learned there was a MANGA! WITH MORE SHIT I WAS SO FUCKING PUMPED. I read it all online in like, a week. I loved the awakened beings designs. I loved the art, I loved the characters, I loved the world... and then. The twist. (Claymore spoilers ahead)

That the main continent Claymore takes place on is a testing ground for the organization's war against another power on another continent. Which is actually super fucking cool but. THEY NEVER BRING IT UP AGAIN??? I DON'T REMEMBER THEM ACKNOWLEDGING THIS INSANE TWIST AND COMPLETE SHATTERING OF THEIR WHOLE WORLDVIEW Maybe it's the translation I read? But wow. Something like that just isn't talked about again. And then we have the Destroyer. The actual real Destroyer, the black mass, I am confused about... It takes over beings and has a very primal mind. But also it can speak full sentences? And can combine two beings together even though it's supposed to take them over? But it also keeps Priscilla's mind in Cassandra or something? I have no idea, it got so muddled. I don't like Teresa coming back. It doesn't make any sense in the rules of the universe, we NEVER saw anything like that in the whole series! How does that work? Is Teresa just a construct of what Clare remembers of her? Or is it ACTUALLY Teresa? Plus it's so boring. Teresa is ridiculously powerful so you know she's going to win against Priscilla. BOOORRRINGGGG Like wow man. Also. Raki and Clare are not like, caretaker/child relationship? It's fucking romantic? That's super fucking gross, I hate it so much. OH AND THEN ILENA AT THE END HOW IS SHE STILL ALIVE HOW DOES SHE HAVE HER ARM BACK THERE IS NO EXPLANATION HOW DID CLARE FIND HER???? RAFEALA DIDN'T KILL HER??? Came out of fucking no where. Kind of ruined it. Also I am still salty Clarice died :(
