@Max: ‘GAR’ stands for Genuine Autoerotic Retrodefibrilation.

Maybe.

@Shirukii: Anyway, Raki may not be very GAR when he re-appears, but he have some kind of mojo when it comes to the affections of unobtainable women. He’ll need a harem show, Tenchi-muyo style, with Claire and _________ competing for his affections.

@max : Wow, ur second questions was a shock one, but it takes me a while to come up with this, in Claymore series there r 3 types of creature, Human , Claymore and Awaken/Yoma, and the difference between Claymore and Awaken/Yoma are Claymore is type of human who can use monster’s power so their primary creature r still Human being but Awaken/Yoma r monster being and can transform to Human so their primary creature r still Monster.

Basically GAR is when a character is so manly/badass you cannot help but feel drawn in, even if you are hetero. See below link for more explanation:

Yoma can take human form, but their minds are not human. It seems like Yoma lack morals. So that is the real difference that comes from Awakening. Claymore seeks to continually stress that it is your mind (and I suppose your metaphorical heart) that makes you human, and can keep your beastly impulses under control.

The Abyssals are pretty evil, but they seem to plan better and hide their nasty impulses better.

@Max: Think of being awakened as a Shark, with the legs of an wolf, with armour plating rivaling that of a…umm army base, yeah, a human brain, and the innate desire to kill and devour as many humans as possible. In other words, it’s like uhh…say, having a Gnosis on your tail, only that you don’t have a halbert effect.

Great episode! *claps*
Even with the absence of most of Helens funny faces that were in the manga. Those were some of my favorite parts!

And I can’t wait to catch up with Raki!

STILL!! They missed Helen’s golden comment~!!

Qustions:

1. What does GAR stand for?
2. Apart from the initial urge for a murder spree and the eventual eating of guts when a claymore awakens, what else is so bad in being an awakened? If the awakened ones and the abyssals can transform to their awakened form and go back being human again on their will why the strong opposition to it? I mean I thought I noticed that once a claymore awakens it’s like she becomes a very evil and vile being with just gore and violence in her head, lol, I mean the abyssals seemed to have so much control and so with the male awakened beings. Can’t they go okay with awakening and control the urge to eat guts and still continue killing yomas? Or am I just dense I’ve read teh manga and watched 16 eps and still didn’t get it, lol

and god jesus if Clare and Priscilla don’t meet again on the anime that would be so uncool!
