description Claymore Overview

When a shapeshifting demon with a thirst for human flesh, known as "youma," arrives in Raki's village, a lone woman with silver eyes walks into town with only a sword upon her back. She is a "Claymore," a being manufactured as half-human and half-youma, for the express purpose of exterminating these monsters.

With nowhere else to go, Raki finds the Claymore, known as Clare, and decides to follow her on her journeys.
