About

The twenty-sixth and final anime episode of Claymore, adapted from the manga by Norihiro Yagi. The episode was first broadcast on September 25, 2007 and was directed by Hiroyuki Tanaka and produced by Madhouse Studios. It was dubbed by Funimation and released on DVD Volume 6 in June 25, 2009.

Overview

Clare, nearly fully awakened, and continues the battle despite Priscilla still dominates the fight with apparent ease. When Clare harnesses enough mental power and repeats to herself the whole purpose of her struggle, she experiences flashbacks of Teresa. Awakened Clare\Teresa strikes her with multiple devastating attacks. Priscilla reverts to her human form and is about to be killed when Raki intervenes, but Clare, unable to control herself, attacks him as well. Jean takes the blow instead and, although fatally wounded, manages to have Clare revert to her human form, to pay back for what Clare had done for her. This leaves Clare tormented with grief for the death of her comrade. Priscilla is then retrieved by Isley. In the last scenes, Miria, Helen, Deneve, and Clare announce their wish to leave the Organization and depart on separate journeys, with Helen traveling with Deneve, and Raki with Clare.

Trivia

• It makes sense Helen and Deneve leave the Organization together; the two are best friends and the only real human connection the other has.
• Miriam obviously begins her quest to take down the Organization.
• Claire decides to live a normal as possinle life with Raki.
• Teresa's spirit appears to have helped keep Claire from losing her mind; Claire's flashbacks of her (growing increasingly blurred) end with Teresa screaming at her in clear image.
• Galatea appears to also leave the Organization.
