Description:
A brutal scourge stalks the land. Yoma, monsters driven by a hunger satisfied by only one quarry: Humanity. The dark breed knows but a singular foe: Claymore. Human-Yoma hybrids of extraordinary strength and cunning, the Claymores roam from skirmish to skirmish delivering salvation by the edge of a blade.
Thus continues the twisting tale of Clare, one such sister of the sword driven by pain in both victory and defeat. Three beings of myth have risen from exile to open a new front in the war between monsters and men. Clare's march to battle is brisk, for on the killing fields awaits the one she has lived to destroy. Vengeance is coming to the snowy wastelands of the North.

The (small) boost in emotional content notwithstanding, this is still the series to hit up for a watching experience that is consistently fun and never taxing.
This is a collection of gags in search of a plotline, and when it finally does find a story to tell, the change in tone is so abrupt that you end up wishing it had stayed pointless and stupid.
A young man becomes obsessed with a young woman who can transform into an alien biomechanical dragon in this weak effort from Gonzo. While not a total disaster, it does not give much hope for the rest of the series.
If this is the kind of stagnation and dullness that permeates the monster world, then we should all be thankful for being human.
Shuffle! DVD 2The occasional spots of comedy still shine, but Shuffle!'s focus on romance is slowly running the series into the ground.
