I definitely agree with you about adaptations. Some of them can change the original work so much, even the characters themselves.
I actually decided to read the Claymore manga one year after watching the anime, and I'm really glad I did. The endings are different. The manga is 27 volumes long, but the anime only covers up to around volume 11, so the ending feels a little rushed. In my opinion, it was probably better that they ended it there, because the artwork in the manga gets much more detailed afterwards, and I don't think those panels could have been translated into animation perfectly.
I think what makes the Claymore manga so good is how much deeper it gets than you'd expect. The world is really interesting, the characters feel well-written, and I especially love how it explores what it means to stay human while slowly becoming something else in the pursuit of revenge. Clare's development also feels really natural, and the other characters are all pretty unique. The artwork is amazing too, especially the awakened being designs. And honestly, the manga gives you so much more than the anime and makes the whole story feel much bigger.
Claymore is actually kind of a revenge story, but it gets more complicated as it goes on. So if you're planning to watch the anime too, I'd recommend watching it first and then reading the manga. I feel like if you read the manga first, the anime probably won't be as satisfying.
Also, a few days ago I came across a fan made live action of Goodbye, Eri on YouTube. If you enjoyed the manga, I'd definitely recommend checking it out. I'm usually not into live action adaptations, but it honestly felt like even an anime adaptation couldn't have done it any better.
I totally get you. Whenever I really love an anime, I don't want it to end either, so I end up putting off the last few episodes.
By the way, are you usually the type to read the manga first or watch the anime first?
It really is. The Paradise Kiss character designs are gorgeous, and the characters' emotions feel so real that it's easy to form a connection with them. That's why it's one of my favs.
well.. I guess Eris will kill Rudy when she hears the news eventually, and then Orsted later?.. or perhaps maybe the monogamy grows.. hehe why not..
also how's Mushoku Tensei III.. ?
it's been a while.. Dig in Driz.. :3
Thank you for the advice. I think I’ll be avoiding people like Toki and Buki today 💀
God knows what they’d do if they found me....If you don’t hear from me, assume I’ve been power-leveled against my will.
And thank you so much, Driz, for the wishes PART 2. I really appreciate it. I hope you had a great day today too!
It feels right to drop some entries.. a mercyful drop.. :3
