r/claymore

We have established that Teresa is the most powerful Claymore and that she could probably face the Abyssals head-on with ease.

But the 4 who went to hunt her, while we knew they were strong in that generation, I think they would be in any generation. Irene mentions that both she and Sophia and Noel surpassed Teresa in some stat (being speed, strength, and agility, respectively). We don't really know if that's actually true, although I consider that it is and that despite being slower or weaker than some of them, Teresa's yoki perception and her high overall abilities gave her the advantage. Although of course, this is before activating the silver eyes.

This is without even mentioning Priscilla, who was one of the strongest number 2s despite being a novice, and who it was said could defeat Teresa with a little more time.

In any case, the mere fact of even getting close to Teresa makes them top-tier among warriors of all generations for me. What do you think?

Thought you all would like seeing these; some older photos of a life-size replica of Clare’s claymore, made & displayed for Jump Festa 2007. It’s a total of 165cm in length, and weighs 7kg! They made lifesize cutouts and used them as references to making it. (I think the guy holding it was an editor for the jump magazine).

It was given to Norihiro Yagi himself afterwards who was at the event; the last photo is a closeup of the sword in his home!
