Yeah, this was a pretty good episode. I liked seeing that, "normal" side of Clare. Yes, I agree I also loved her kaitou outfit, very nice! The episode ended on a climax, which is both great and aggravating at the same time. Anyways, I can't wait until episode four!

Great ep. Loved to see the interactions between characters. Yes that outfit just owned and so did the dual blades. Also, those instrumental theme's are r0xing more at each passing ep.
I didn't like with her being so protective of those two in the end... maybe she's growing too soft from being with Raki... Anyway I'm gonna despair for ep 4 now...

on a side note. Eclipse releases are losing quality >.>....

I like the outfit too, but I miss the ridiculously huge sword. I was waiting for Raki to run in with it and get his ass handed to him. Speaking of Clare's 'normal side,' I was pretty amused by the exchange about mimicing a prostitute.

I'm disappointed that they keep impaling Clare though. There's a limit to how many times you can get away with trying to convince your audience that the main character is dead or close to it, and it's already happened twice in three episodes.

Clare with dual katanas = hot. She's getting soft though... NOT a good thing (obviously, see end of episode haha). Need episode 4!

Yeah but this time she's weaker because of those pills. If she wasn't all Yoma-suppressed she woulda owned the "Voracious Eater" by now, I bet. Also, her being all normal cuz of those pills now is probably why she can't carry her ridiculous sword and needs to use the two small ones.

It's understandable that she's having such a tough time, but having her end up impaled again seems a little too repetitive to me, especially as an ending to the episode. I'd like to at least see a little more variety, I guess.

The impaling thing, I agree, is a bit old already, I was just pointing out that this time, there's probably a different motive than reminding us that she's half-Yoma. Since the first impaling was resolved in the first episode, It was clearly to show how strong she is. But this is stretched over two, which makes me think it's trying to show that she's half-Human, too. It's a small detail, and yeah, impaling is getting kind of old, but I'm not sure what other kind of massive damage that could occur and then believably be fixed o.O Not to mention they're in like medieval times or something. Do they even have something like guns?

Clare seems to have a darker side, probably full on Yoma abilites or something. [Hasn't read the manga.]

Crossbows, maybe. But I see your point. I just they don't make it into too much of a trend, where she gets impaled by something every other episode.

They should hurt Raki once in a while too =P

But Raki doesn't have sweet healing powers. :-p Though badass scars are the bonus of a human constitution, lol. And don't arrow wounds still count as impaling? Minor impaling perhaps. >.>

I suppose it does hehe. It'd at least be a little different though. And Raki could use some scars... or mortal wounds. =P heheh

Looking back, I think its shock value as this anime seems pretty on par with the manga (as of now). Chp. 5/6 reveals something that makes her getting stabbed one thousand times over a little interesting.

If they stick to the manga.

Downloaded one random manga RAW chapter, and it seems like it will be getting interesting...as for this episode, it was nothing exceptional, but a bit silly that they did not check the corpses...I mean, come on, the cathedral was all closed, the monster came from inside, and there were lots of zombified corpses lying about? If you are in the monster-extermination buisniss, checing for demons sleeping among the corpses should be pretty self explainatory...
Meh, i am nitpicking, i know, I will go now...

Another great episode, impaling notwithstanding. I was surprised Raki stayed behind like he was told...that doesn't seem like him. Still time for him to show up, I suppose.

Well she did mention being weakend by the pills.. maybe her mind was a bit off, you know?
Or maybe they would have no plot if they had figured it out, ahha

Loved the episode... have my own theories on who the Yoma is... and I'm pretty sure we're all thinking along the same lines... as to who it is... if it's the case, it will be a little predictable... but still... quite a good series. Enough action and sword play to keep me happy.

I belive she isnt using her big sword as to keep from being detected and seen as a Claymore and or trying to become more mobile.

I'm sure she could still carry (and probably use, after the pills wear off) her big sword, but it'd be a little out of place with antique-selling siblings. Even if it didn't give her away as a Claymore, it would attract plenty of unwanted attention.

The whole cathedral setting made the episode at least a hundred more times creepier. I agree with what everybody is saying too, it is pretty cool to see the normal side of Clare.

what the hell did they teach at that boot camp? if shes really good at acting like that, why? since everyone can pretty much spot them most of the time would acting really be necessary?

Curfew = Heavily Armored Knights hunting people on rooftops, isn't it?

Atleast in this case, and considering they're normal humans, to do that, they must be quite in shape.
