Claymore, a manga series by Norihiro Yagi, is set in a medieval world plagued by Yoma, humanoid shape-shifters that feed on humans. A mysterious group, known as the Organization, creates human-Yoma hybrids to exterminate Yoma for a fee. The public refer to these warriors as "Claymores," alluding to their large swords, or "Silver-eyed Witches," due to their silver eyes.[1]
Main characters
edit- Clare (クレア, Kurea) Voiced by: Houko Kuwashima (Japanese); Stephanie Young, Cherami Leigh (Child) (English)
- Clare is the series' protagonist. As a child, Clare's parents are killed by a Yoma disguised as Clare's brother; he and his pack force her to travel with them to deceive other victims[2] Teresa destroys the pack in Teo village and inadvertently frees Clare. As Clare is an outcast, Teresa assumes responsibility for her. Condemned to death for desertion, Teresa decides to live for Clare. As a result, the Organization sends an execution team. Though Teresa defeats the team, an awakened Priscilla kills Teresa.[3] Clare is converted into a Claymore and trains for years to attain the power necessary to kill Priscilla. As she is considered weak due to her Yoma abilities coming not from Yoma flesh but from the remains of Teresa, Clare is No. 47 - the lowest possible rank.[4]
- Teresa (テレサ, Teresa) Voiced by: Romi Park (Japanese); Christine Auten (English)
- Teresa of the Faint Smile is so named as she has no apparent technique or personality trait — only her faint smile.[5] Though she can sense Yoki flow in her opponents, she defeats Priscilla despite Priscilla's ability to hide her Yoki.[6] Teresa is never seen using more than 10% Yoki in battle, yet consistently defeats more powerful opponents and holds the highest possible rank - No. 1.[7] She adopts Clare, but is later killed by Priscilla.[3] Clare takes Teresa's severed head and demands the Organization to use it in place of a Yoma to turn her into a Claymore.[8]
- Priscilla (プリシラ, Purishira) Voiced by: Aya Hisakawa (Japanese); Brina Palencia (English)
- Priscilla is the main adversary of Clare. Priscilla is powerful enough to fight without Yoki, concealing her presence from sister warriors. Priscilla is assigned to lead an execution team against Teresa.[9] Teresa defeats the team, despite Priscilla's Yoki concealment. In desperation, Priscilla begins releasing her Yoki and eventually kills Teresa.[10] Priscilla fully awakens into a winged, one-horned demonic humanoid. She destroys the execution team, but ignores Clare. Priscilla flies to parts unknown.[11] Eventually, Priscilla meets and defeats Isley and Rigaldo. Then she reverts to human form and regresses into childhood, losing her memory. Isley swears allegiance to Priscilla and promises to take Priscilla south.[12] Later, she becomes attached to Raki, due to the scent of Teresa he carries, via his past exposure to Clare. Near the end of the anime, she regains her memories and battles Clare, believing her to be Teresa. Clare manages to defeat her, but before she can strike the killing blow, Raki protects Priscilla, telling Clare that she must not give into her desire for revenge as it would make her no better than a Yoma. Her life is spared, and Isley arrives to take her away with him as she again regressed to her childlike persona.
- Miria (ミリア, Miria) Voiced by: Kikuko Inoue (Japanese); Monica Rial (English)
- Miria plays the consummate leader in series. Her agility-based technique leaves afterimages, confusing opponents, earning her the nickname "Phantom" Miria. Miria secretly investigates the Organization after the death of a friend, Hilda, the target of an Awakened Hunt. At the end of the anime, she decides to leave the Organization, having grown disillusioned with its corruption and deception.[13]
- Deneve (デネヴ, Denevu) Voiced by: Hana Takeda (Japanese); Caitlin Glass (English)
- Deneve is a Northern Campaign survivor that displays high regenerative ability. Deneve forms a close friendship with Helen early on, and after the Paburo Hunt, Deneve bonds with Miria and Clare. Deneve reveals that, as a young girl, a Yoma killed her family. She wishes to avenge her family, but as she has a strong will to live, she ends up becoming a Defensive Type instead. Ashamed of what she regards as her cowardice, she fights suicidally until she meets Helen, who convinces her that her thoughts are natural, as "We're only human, after all."[14]
- Helen (ヘレン, Heren) Voiced by: Miki Nagasawa (Japanese); Jamie Marchi (English)
- Helen, the fourth member of the Paburo Hunt, can stretch her arms to extreme lengths to attack at range or bind her opponents. Helen likes to eat[15] and drink.[16] She is hot tempered and aggressive, and status conscious, initially disliking Clare for her low rank.[17] Like Deneve, Miria, and Clare, Helen is partially awakened. After surviving the Northern Campaign, she combines Flexible Limb Stretching with Jean's Drill Sword technique.[18]
Supporting characters
editAwakened Beings
editAwakened Beings (覚醒者 Kakusei-sha)[19] are Claymore warriors that have fully awakened. They possess abilities similar to Yoma, only of much greater magnitude. Awakened Beings can take on myriad of forms—a bird (Hilda in anime), crustacean (Agatha), humanoid (Dauf), or mammal (Isley and Rigaldo). In Organization history, there are three cases of a No. 1 warrior awakening. Known as "Creatures of the Abyss" (深淵の者 Shin'en no mono), they settle in different regions of the island—one in the West (Lautrec), one in the North (Alfons), and one in the South (Mucha).[20] This status quo did not change until Isley, the "Silver King" of the North, began to raise an army of Awakened and expand his influence into the others' regions.[21]
- Abyss Feeders
- The original Abyss Feeders (深淵喰い Shin'en gui)[22] are 11 warriors created from the 11 Awakened Beings that attacked the Organization Headquarters after the Northern Campaign.[23] Abyss Feeders are trained to hunt Creatures of the Abyss. Their eyes and mouths have been sewn shut, the ability to sense and radiate Yoki has been removed and they track their target by scent alone. They are trained to return home if six or more Feeders are killed.[24] After killing Isley, they are used to track down Riful for Alicia and Beth.[25]
- Agatha (アガサ, Agasa)
- Hiding in Robona, Agatha's presence is detected by Galatea, who is also in hiding. Galatea releases her Yoki, baiting the Organization to send an execution team—Clarice and Miata. They find and attack Galatea, resulting in a 3-way fight among the team, Galatea and Agatha.[26] Later, she fights in a mummy-like body, but is defeated by the survivors of the Northern Campaign.[27]
- Alicia (アリシア, Arishia) and Beth (ベス, Besu)
- Identical twin sisters, they are part of the Organization's program to develop controlled Awakened Beings. The first experiment, using non-identical sisters Luciela and Rafaela, ends in failure.[28] Due to training from infancy, Alicia and Beth are of one mind—a two-body Claymore warrior in effect. One sister fully awakens, while the other sister retains the Twins' collective human mind and remote controls the awakened partner.[29] The Twins are defeated and killed by Priscilla.[30]
- Dauf (ダフ, Dafu) Voiced by: Kenji Hamada (Japanese); Christopher Ayres (English)
- Consort of Riful of the West. Awakened, Dauf appears as a giant armored humanoid. He forms rods from his hands,[31] arm[32] and mouth,[33] firing them as projectiles. But for all his physical power, Dauf displays low intelligence and poor tactics. His regeneration and healing abilities are also low. Devoted to Riful, he fears her deserting him.[34]
- Isley (イースレイ, Īsurei) Voiced by: Koji Yusa (Japanese); John Swasey (English)
- Isley is the Creature of the Abyss of the North.[35] His awakened form resembles a centaur, whose arms can shape-shift into a lance and shield,[36] crossbow,[37] and sword.[38] When Priscilla defeats him, he swears allegiance to her.[39] In order to conceal Priscilla's true power, Isley claims that he won and that she is simply his consort.[21] To keep his promise to take Priscilla south, Isley gathers the Northern Army.[21] He also comes into contact with Raki, giving the young man valuable tutelage in swordsmanship. Despite being a powerful Awakened Being, he possesses a genteel manner and shows great respect towards even those who are opposed to him.[40]
- Luciela (ルシエラ, Rushiera)
- No. 1 of Luciela era.[41] She and Rafaela are the Organization's first attempt at creating a controlled Awakened Being. The experiment fails due to use of non-identical sisters.[42] Luciela's awakened form is cat-like.[43] Luciela loses fight with Isley over control of southern region of Mucha. Rafaela finds Luciela and kills her by breaking her spine.[44] However, Rafaela injects her Yoki into Luciela and they successfully merged.[45]
- Ophelia (オフィーリア, Ofīria) Voiced by: Emi Shinohara (Japanese); Luci Christian (English)
- Ophelia is as powerful as she is unstable. As a child, her family was killed by Priscilla, with her brother sacrificing his life to ensure that she escaped safely. As a result of this childhood trauma, she displays sociopathic behavior, even going so far as to fight her fellow Claymores. She despises Awakened Beings because of her family's death, and she relishes any opportunity to hunt them out of revenge.[46] Ophelia's technique is Rippling Sword, where her super-flexible arm undulates the blade, creating a snake-like illusion. She styles herself "Rippling Ophelia."[47] She tries to kill Clare, but Ilena interrupts Clare's execution. Ophelia is defeated and badly injured.[48] Pushed to the brink of insanity by her defeat and her past trauma, Ophelia awakens into a serpentine form; despite her transformation, she believes that she is still in control of her mind and body (the only oddity she notes is a newfound appetite for entrails). She tracks down Clare and they do battle in a lake.[49] After seeing her reflection in the water, Ophelia allows Clare to kill her. As she dies, she has a vision of her brother, believing that she will reunite with him in the afterlife.[50]
- Riful (リフル, Rifuru) Voiced by: Nana Mizuki (Japanese); Brittney Karbowski and Cynthia Cranz (English)
- Riful is the Creature of the Abyss in the West.[51] Riful is both the youngest No. 1 and the youngest Creature of the Abyss.[52] Riful's awakened form resembles a mermaid-octopus, composed of fleshy layers that can riffle apart.[53] She lives with her consort, Dauf, in abandoned castles in Lautrec. To counter Isley of the North, Riful attempts to build an army of awakened Claymores.[54]
- Rigaldo (リガルド, Rigarudo) Voiced by: Hiro Yuuki (Japanese); Vic Mignogna (English)
- Isley's second-in-command. Rigaldo appears composed, but angers easily when provoked.[55] Rigaldo's lion form is smaller than most Awakened Beings, but he compensates with greater speed and agility. For long-range and surprise attacks, Rigaldo can extend his claws at high speed.[56] In contrast to his high offensive power, Rigaldo is lacking in regenerative ability.[57] While not friends with Isley, Rigaldo works for him, having been defeated by Isley earlier.[58] In VIZ English translation, Isley nicknames Rigaldo as the "Silver-eyed Lion."[55] He is killed by a nearly-awakened Clare; before dying, he expresses amazement at Clare's skill and power.
Claymores
edit- Anastasia (アナスタシア, Anasutashia)

- Dietrich (ディートリヒ, Dītorihi)
- Dietrich first appears leading an Awakened Hunt into disaster. But Deneve and Helen save the warriors.[71] Dietrich uses a technique, which she jumps skyhigh, then lands a blow on the target, bisecting it.[72] Dietrich joins the rebels in seeking the truth about the Organization.[73]
- Flora (フローラ, Furōra) Voiced by: Miyu Matsuki (Japanese); Trina Nishimura (English)
- Flora's sword drawing technique is one of the fastest of any warrior.[74] Diplomatic personality, even when imposing discipline on Pieta Task Force.[75] After the battle, Flora tests Clare in a sword-match. Afterward, Flora determines her Windcutter is slower, but more precise, while Clare's Quick Sword is faster. Flora says she is no longer "the fastest of warriors."[76] Rigaldo bisects Flora with a claw.[77] During the 7-year Timeskip, Clare invents a Yoki-less Windcutter. She uses it against a surprised Agatha, who cannot detect Clare's Yoki.[78]
- Galatea (ガラテア, Garatea) Voiced by: Ai Orikasa (Japanese); Colleen Clinkenbeard (English)

Swearing never to wield her sword again, she takes religious vows and becomes Sister Latea, a nun in Rabona, caring for orphans at a neighborhood church.
- Hilda (ヒルダ, Hiruda) Voiced by: Komina Matsushita (Japanese); Colleen Clinkenbeard (English)
- Hilda acts as Miria's mentor during Miria's first Awakened Hunt. Miria (then No. 17) and Hilda vow to work together again as single-digit warriors.[83] Behind the scenes, Hilda begins to awaken. She gives her Black Card to Ophelia, who, instead of giving it to Miria, destroys it. Ophelia leads an unaware Miria on a hunt in the mountains. The giant, mummy-like Hilda scarcely resists Miria's fatal attack, possibly keeping the vow Hilda made earlier. As Hilda dies reverting to human form, a horrified Miria nearly awakens herself.[84] Years later, Helen stumbles across Hilda's sword, which had been lost during her awakening. Miria stakes the sword as Hilda's gravemark on the mountain.[85]

Ilena defeats Ophelia's Rippling Sword, wounding Ophelia in the process.[91] Ilena brings Clare to a cabin hidden in a mountain valley, where Clare recovers.[92] After failing to teach Clare the Quick-sword, Ilena cuts off her remaining arm and orders Clare to attach it.[93] But after Clare leaves the valley, Rafaela shows up and presumably executes Ilena for desertion.[94]
- Jean (ジーン, Jīn) Voiced by: Kotono Mitsuishi (Japanese); Laura Bailey (English)
- Jean's technique is based on twisting the sword arm, her free hand holding then releasing it in one burst. Galatea says "Among all the warriors, you have the fastest, strongest thrust."[95] Jean and hunt members, Katea and Raquel, are captured by Dauf and Riful. Raquel and Katea are killed. After prolonged torture, Jean awakens into a butterfly-like form.[96] Clare, repeating Galatea's technique, is able to revert Jean to her human self. As a result, Jean believes she has a debt to pay Clare, much to Clare's dismay.[97] After an awakened Clare kills Rigaldo, she pleads with Helen to kill her. Jean, mortally wounded, uses the last of her strength to revert Clare to normal."[98] In the anime, this occurs after Clare's battle with Priscilla.[99]
- Miata (ミアータ, Miāta)
- A pre-teen, Miata has an unstable mind, which if controlled, would enable Miata to be No. 1.

Later, an awakening Priscilla beheads Teresa. Ilena, Noel and Sophia attack Priscilla, who wounds Ilena, then kills Sophia and Noel with extendable claws.[89]
- Rachel (レイチェル, Reicheru)
- Rachel's personality is the opposite of Audrey's demure manner. Rachel appears hot-tempered and confrontational. Rachel stores force in her sword blade, which she releases like a leaf spring. Riful calls this technique "Strong Sword." Despite repeated attacks and stepped-up efforts, the technique proves ineffectual against Riful.[106] Miria and her comrades rescue Audrey and Rachel.[107] Rachel dislikes Miria.
