Today's post is on Claymore volume 23: Mark of the Warrior by Norihiro Yagi. It is the twentieth-third the long running Claymore series, you need to have read the first twenty-two volumes to understand the story. It is 195 pages long and is published by Shonen Jump Advanced. The cover has Miria facing something in the distance. The intended reader is someone who likes dark plots, high action, and strong female characters. There is mild foul language, no sexuality, and lots of violence in this book. The story is told from third person close of the main character. There Be Spoilers Ahead.
From the back of the book- Rebel Warrior Miria penetrates te headquaters of the secret Organization that created her, discovering the appalling truth about Yoma. Meanwhile, human warrior Raki joins the Claymores on the battlefield and seems closer than ever to his goal of reunited with Clare, his Claymore companion. Yet the cycle of violence cannot be stopped- an epic battle is brewing and Priscilla, a powerful force for evil, is back in the fight!
Review- We learn a lot about the history of the Yoma in this volume and how they were created. Miria discovers the beings that Yoma and Claymores are made from and she frees them from the Organization and stops the experiment in this area. Most of the volume is about getting ready for Clare to return to the story. We get to see what happens when a Claymore is made because Clare comes out without the stitches needed to hold her together. The volume ends with Priscilla is back and everything is going to get real from here.
I give this volume a Five out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I bought this manga with my own money.
