This goes down as 1 of my favorite anime. This is another one of those Netflix anime that I kept avoiding. I eventually started watching it but got to confused in what the man was explaining to the girl so I stopped watching it for awhile and started to watch the Golgo 13 moves. After watching the Golgo 13 movies I went back to see if the series was going to turn out to be good. After the explanation the story starts, off with everyone getting off the train that the story is about. This story really has no beginning or ending it just talks about certain situations that happen between some immortals. The anime series is about a group of immortals in the past and how they became immortal. Also it jumps to the future of that time to another group of mortals who become immortal due to the fact that someone was able to make another batch that could make more immortals. This time is around the 1930s and this is the time with the train I think it's called the Pussy Foot and the trip it makes which has a lot of gangsters on the train all with a different purpose but they all run into each other. Out of the gangs is one psychotic group that loves blood and killing people. The leader of the group is very crazy but pretty funny and he finds a female who I think really will love him which makes me want to read the novels and see what happens to that relationship. Another group is on some crazy worship of someone and wants to kill everyone; these are the people I'm talking about that are dressed in black. I might not have got who they were really good. While the small gang the

Jacuzzi gang just wanted to rob everyone for money, they are kind of nice though but still they are gangsters. I like to just give an overall review and don't want to get deep into the storyline and spoil the whole story but if you like gangsters, people being killed, immortals, and the 1930's you will love this.

The couple in the story is the funniest in the series and it will be a huge shock for you to find out when they actually became immortal. Remember their faces because if you watch other stories from this author you will see them in it. Overall I give the story a 6 out of 6 with a funny face because I wish they would keep going with the story, even though it won't ever have an end since they're immortals and all cool with each other but you never know what will happen in the next 1000 years.

Claymore

Claire

This was a great series that I wish picked up a big fan base like Naruto and kept going with the anime. But the manga comes out once a month so I guess they decided to stop it with the way it ended. Not saying the ending was bad it just that when I found out about the manga and the differences I was shocked that the two main characters spit up around the time they were running from #3 and still have not ran back into each other. I'm like 3 mangas back on the recent vol so I have to catch up but this is about the anime so I will post another blog talking about the manga in the near future, probably when I catch up with the latest vol since it had my favorite character Maria on the front cover. The two stories are pretty much the same through out the beginning but the last two episodes change the story so that it can end compared to having a 7 year timeskip. They still can bring back the anime because if they just exclude the last two episodes and start from there they will be able to probably have another 13-26 episodes before having to stop and wait for the manga to get more volumes. I liked the ending of the anime alot but when I looked up the manga I realized that alot more happened and it just didn't end like that. Raki and Claire have yet to run back into each other but they are still hoping to find each other. I don't know if it's love in a romantic way or a sister brother love but they intend to find each other. Sorry haven't even told you about what it's about. The story is about a group of female half yoma half humans called Claymores, because they carry a huge claymore, who kill the yoma and The Awakened Beings who are alot stronger than the Claymores and Yoma. There is a big reason why it's only females that are capable of being Claymores, there are male ones but you have to watch the anime to find out what happened to them. The funny thing about it is that the Claymores are super strong but it's still very hard to kill the yoma making it a life and death battle almost everytime they go out. The main character is Claire who is ranked #49 out of all the Claymores she's considered weak even though she is a pretty good fighter. In the beginning it makes it seem like the rank system was wrong but when they start introducing other Claymores you start seeing the huge gap between Claire and the others especially the single digit numbers. Because Claire works for the Organization which made them and also other things for secretive goals she travels from village to village killing yoma for money. I don't want to go into details about the whole thing because it's very good to watch and start making your own theories and questions of what is going on. If you like it alot remember there is a manga that continues with what is going on and from the last part of the anime alot of things happened since than which makes it more interesting to read. The story is very complex and it always look like the main characters are not going to get out of this one, even though somehow they get lose it's not so easy compared to other type of action stories I have seen. My opinion the story really doesn't start until the 7 year time skip because Raki is pretty much a bitch throughout the whole anime. I do give him his respect though since he was hanging around all these super powerful people while being even a weak person amongst humans that takes alot of guts. I'm still enjoying this manga because it has a lot of action and adventure in it while showing Claire getting stronger after each battle she fights. She eventually turns on the organization because of what happens when they travel to the north, even in the manga this happens but in a different way.

My favorite characters in the story are Ophelia who fought Claire and became awakened she was crazy scary and I didn't think the two where going to be able to escape her I knew they weren't going to be able to kill her and the crunk ass Maria who is the leader of the Claymores that go against the Organization. Had to throw this end even though it's only in the manga when the Claymores of the organization take out Maria and she comes back that was pretty hard and she gets the G status for doing that. The #1 who holds it down but died in a fucked up way was Teressa of the faint smile who was untouchable but died because of that loser Priscilla. Overall (just grading the anime) I give the story a 5 out of 6 I enjoyed it alot but wish that they would continue with the story in the manga.
