Claymore - Chapter 92
Soul Seal
Claire is drawn into the fused sisters consciousness. Rafaela’s consciousness, born from Clare’s intervention, I think lol, explains to Clare how she’s awakening. She would eventually have faded away completely but, the first Claymore’s intervention stirred it a little. And now Clare has given it the final push it needed. The new being is going to awaken, ironically because of Clare.
Anyway, Clare defeats Rafaela. Not sure why, wouldn’t Rafaela disappear anyway when the new being awakens completely? Maybe Clare defeated her so she could get past her and deeper into the new being’s consciousness, so she can maybe stop it. But, I doubt it, it’s awakening has almost already been given as a certainty.
Everyone everywhere feels it, Priscilla comments on how vast it is, this one will probably form the 3 most powerful beings along with Priscilla and Alicia/Beth. Maybe more characters will come because of this. Anyway, Alicia and Beth, after noticing it, confidently report to the organization that they will take care of this new "thing" too. Not sure if Riful should really be happy about this, I’m guessing the new being or either Alicia/Beth will kill her without much hardship.
It’s the first time we see them talk. I was surprised, I was expecting their personality to be much like a slave/doll, just following orders. But, their cockiness made me like them. They could become very interesting characters, besides the fact that they are strong. And also, anyone else thinks they are the hottest Claymore’s ever? lol
- Personal Enjoyment: 4/5
I think by defeating Rafaela’s consciousness Clare gains all of Rafaela’s experiences and skills, so it’s probably like a power-up. The Rafaela/Luciela entity is still waking up though, and I don’t know if anyone can stand up to it. Can’t wait to see what the new entity looks like.
