This is Claymore

(tags anime, season 2007/04)

Claire is no ordinary hero.

Claymore (クレイモア) has me cheering on the violence over and over again. This is an excellent series because Claire, the "woman" pictured here, doesn't give up. She's voiced by Houko Kuwashima (桑島法子), who goes deep voice here.

In fact this whole anime is graced by bishoujo seiyuus like Ayako Kawasumi (川澄綾子), Kikuko Inoue (井上喜久子), Ai Orikasa (折笠愛), etc, but they all throw away their money voices and get down and gritty. Excellent! The only voice I have a problem with is Miyu Matsuki (松来未祐), who just can't drop her voice down at all. She's not supposed sound like a fairy while she has devilish glowing eyes. orz

I thought my bud Mr Alvin would dig this series but it turns out he can't watch it because its not being shown in this area. I'm trying to get him to watch it, tee hee.
