hey guys, been waiting for da anime season 2 to come out.. looks like its not comin out.. so might start reading the manga.. around what chapter/ volume did the anime finish at ?? i'd like to start reading the manga from there.. cheers..

According to Claymore's series info page, the anime diverges from the manga at volume 11. From my memory, you should start reading at the fight between the Claymores and Rigaldo.

Sorry, seeing as how there is already a an "anime" topic, I want to ask if the manga is different from the anime? Because if it isn't I don't think I'll ever read Claymore. I found the anime kinda boring imho (please don't bite my head off Claymore fans).

It was boring actually, i didnt quite feel like the anime was close to the manga in the way it was delivered and the anime changes drastically in the north fight around Ricardo or whatever the guy was named

actually up until the end of the War in the North the anime is pretty loyal to the manga, but then changes drastically after the fight with Rigardo

which is around chapter 26 of the manga i believe

apparently the produces of the anime wanted to rush the ending b/c they weren't planning a 2nd season

Thats truly sad 🙁 atleast make a chance for another season instead of just writing it off like that 😮 was a real buzz kill

agreed, u can tell where they stop following the manga storyline in the anime too, b/c the plot and artwork take a sharp dive 🤨
