Thread: Episode 21 "SPOILER"

Kimba, not Simba.

And yea, they really did split off from the manga this time. Wonder if Raki will get in the way somehow in the final episodes, a Raki vs. Clare. vs. Priscilla. Could that happen in the manga someday?

What the hell was up with Raki finding Pricilla eating guts, I mean do you think the author approved this because he would find out eventually

Animators could've consulted the mangaka on the storyline. I'd like to think the artist knows about what they're doing with the anime adaptation.

This ep left me on a big high. I'm sad to see Flora and Jeane die, but Rigardo is insane. Love his lion look. And about Raki, wow the fact that hes still in the room with Priscilla and Easily is creepy in itself. However since Easily said shes an awakened being (Formly a human) i think Raki feels an attachment to her, especially since she was screaming for her mother and father.

I figure i'll start reading the manga now, since there are so many differences. I want to ask though, where do the differences start? On what manga chapter? Cause i figure i'll start with thier arrival in Pieta???

Prominent differences can be found in the chapters 50 onwards (The War in the North chapters) Since you're reading the manga, why not start from chapter one instead?

Well since everything is the same except for the start of the War in the North.

Honestly the anime is a direct adaptation of the manga until the northern arc so you would be safe starting from there, but the manga is worth a read from the start can't pin point why, I just feel that it is.

Though its a direct adaptation at the front, the anime did leave out loads of stuff that can only be found in the manga.

The conclusion is ............
Go read the manga its worth the time.

You'll probably miss out big time. I once did this with Gantz, had the full anime boxset and thought it was the end when I saw the main character going to halo land. Closed topic and never bothered to touch the manga. But it questioned me further, if the anime stopped so early why the hell is the manga still going? So checked it out and found out I missed out big time (Still catching up) so yes manga is recommended regardless of if you watched the anime or not. Only exception is Fate Stay Night which the manga was based off the anime (other way around yes? compared to most series).

Ya the manga of Fate Stay Night is not even near the ending of the anime yet.

I heard that there will be one more episode of the Invasion of Pieta (eg episode 22 will be on the invasion of pieta II) before they move on to other titles that are not found in the manga. I was chatting with another "friend" who reads alot on Claymore news and overall and he told me the below. So I came home to type it out to share with you all. (Not sure whether it's fully correct)

Episode 23 - 臨界点(I)
Episode 24 - 臨界点(II)
Episode 25 - 誰が為に
Episode 26 - 受け継ぐものへ

According to my understanding, they should be called....

Episode 23 - Critical Point I
Episode 24 - Critical Point II
Episode 25 - For who? (or something like that)
Episode 26 - To the one(s) who inherit/succeed (or something like that)

I translated the words in bold. Depending on the context the words may mean another thing in Japanese. Hence, don't chew on me too hard if I gotten it wrong. Im sure I more or less have gotten it right
