Ughh… Neko’s sick. Sore throat, headache, cold, I guess that’s the major force required to keep him away from school for a day.
Bedridden, I had now plenty of time to watch episode 6 of Claymore. And I must say, I’m overwhelmed. This episode proved me once again that Claymore is an outstanding anime far beyond my expectations.

After all that happened in the previous episodes, this was a rather unexpected change of pace. It really looked like a new story, which threw me off at first – Clare was nowhere to be seen… Only right before the end of the episode was I finally able to understand what the whole episode was about…

RAWR! Seldom have I seen an anime which built up so much WIN in the first episodes already. That or I can’t remember any good reference anymore. Either way, this episode was full of suspense and emotion, it simply owned, period.

A challenger appears…

I just felt like watching something else than Gundam SEED Destiny. Other than obviously trying to get more attention in the community with newer series, I also feel that I should watch more anime. I hope this will somewhat contribute to resolve the problem I stated in one of my earlier posts here, and that I’m moving in the good direction. However, with a little more than 2 weeks left until my finals, this sure is a reckless risk to take. But I think I can handle it. At least I hope I can count on everyone’s support this time… Yet, my hopes have always been proved wrong until now, and I doubt this is going to change. It’s always worth a try though ^^

The story begins in a dark and morbid atmosphere. A female knight engages a bloodthirsty monster, who is devouring a human corpse. As one would expect, the woman takes her opponent out easily and slices them apart with her huge sword. Her silver eyes turning golden when facing such creatures, she’s a Claymore.
