----------------------------------------
So another exciting chapter with lot's of developments. The all mighty Isley has fallen. I wonder if he was weaker than usual because he wasn't eating much like he said.
And now we have Riful being hunted by 1 and 2 and those feeders. So will Riful make it with maybe the help of the revival of that creature she is trying to create? What kind of creature will it be? O! how the mighty had fallen. The awaken being hunted like dogs.
And what is Clare and her group going to do?
Also we still await to see Priscilla and Raki again.

Lot's of excitement coming up. I don't know about you but i can't wait.

Wow, it was so surprising to see Isley fall at the hands of those Abyssal feeders, and such a kick in the balls that they would have retreated if he killed just one more. I never once thought of Isley as a bad guy throughout the entire series, he's always been a decent and nice guy since his introduction. Also, it's actually very heartwarming to see that in the end he would rather be with his makeshift family than trying to take over the world. Seriously, Claymore will not be the same without this guy. Rest in peace, Isley!

Can't wait to see how Riful get's on with Alicia, Beth and also the feeders. That'll be extremely interesting!

Oh noes! Isley died! ;_;
These feeders indeed seem to be immortal. Now I start to wonder if Clare and Priscilla will join hands.

ah man, i really liked isley- he was pretty cool, giant centaur guy who could make any weapon he wanted, but now hes gone and #1 & 2 are on they're way to take out riful, this should be interesting

but according to Riful (who tortures Claymores): ~"he's the CRUEL one, he's much more CRUEL than I am"

Isley to Rigardo: ~"I want NO life to remain in Pieta, not even a single living bug!"

Luciela to Isley: ~"I hate your pretty boy image, I much prefer your Awakened body, as it doesn't deceive how CRUEL you are, Isley the [COLD] SILVER KING! I know you, you're just like me, you HATE others, sending your own AB army to its death, just to get rid of them!"

You know, re-reading this...it pisses me off even more than the first time. Isley was such an awesome character, he didn't deserve to die such a horrible way. It was a shame to just kill him off like that.

But I have to admit that this chapter was intense. But looking back at it now, first Isley and then not much later
...this kinda was the part when this manga lost its steam for me.

This was a great chapter. The death of Isley is unexpected. It was strangely moving to hear him talking about how he felt about Priscilla and Raki. It seems that becoming an Abbyssal One does not entirely remove one's humanity.

Alicia and Beth have beautiful character designs, even for Claymore's.

if you saw it again, you will notice that creature hides its heads after its backs. Then shift it again back.

I don't know about you, but this chap stroke me real hard. I want to drop the manga so hard right now. I wonder if hope that Priscilla's potential vengeance over the AF is reason enough for me to go on.

DARN IT, JUST WHEN HE GOT HIS HUMANITY BACK!

Right? I can't feel things being different for me.

I was hoping that he wouldn't die at all, but this was just horrible. He got killed of like he was some kind of thrash. Blah.

Isley...

I'm left speechless by his final stand and his last words... Something seems to be bothering my eyes... Using Claymore OST only added to that. I'm actually a bit shaken up.

Isley of the North, you wont be forgotten. You've only earned even more respect from me.

Now they're after my Riful-Sama? Oh dear. The power-balance is about to take a huge turn; Alicia/Beth on the move led by Abyss Feeders, and Luciela/Raphaela. Something is about to go down.

Claymore. You've earned your spot for me indeed. I'll press forward.

5/5... (Only Isley could've made me comment here; I rarely do for mid-Manga in general.)

Damn that was such a pitiable ending for Isley. It made me rage inside that this awesome character would be done in such a miserable way by fucking parasites. It reminded me of Yamcha and the saibaimen... Not cool at all.
Woe is he, succumbing to this cruel world. At least he was likeable til the end.

I do hope these creatures don't take too much importance in the future though. Seeing them fight is not as engaging as real characters at all.

What the heck, where’d this come from? Freakin’ parasites just took the strongest creature of the abyss. They really should’ve teamed up first and then taken down this wicked Organisation before starting the territory battles. Isley thinking of the fake family in his last moments though.

But wait, it’s time for Numbers 1 and 2 to move! Yikes, things are heading into a mess.

Rip Isley. he was a piece of shit from start to finish but he had a cool as all hell design. So the only emperor left is Riful. I hope she survives till the end. I like her. Alicia and Beth gotta die at some point. They're too emotionless and therefore characterless. Everytime they're on screen, it feels like we should've given it someone else.

Can't wait to see what the better twin duo of Luciella and Rafaela look like when they merge. I hope Renee survives this too.
