* Dae, talking to Priscilla, tells her that if she prefers eating men, then women, and then little boys (in that order) then eating must be a form of sexual pleasure for her. Then ''fucking Priscilla'', the BigBad of the series, the monster everybody in the series wants to destroy, stops and tells Dae that he's a total creep. Did I mention she stops to say this '''while eating half of Dae's body'''.

* Galatea going all UsefulNotes/MuhammadAli (i.e. CurbStompBattle + YouFightLikeACow) on Dauf, who vastly outclasses her in everything except agility - where he still has the advantage even boxed in - and intelligence. Doubles as a CrowningMomentOfAwesome. Especially the part near the start where she just stands there between his hands after foiling his Kirk punch, then talking some more smack, swiftly figuring out how to actually hurt him seriously, and cutting off his hand. He only survives because Riful saves his bacon.

* In episode 6, after Teresa breaks the Organization's rule of not killing humans by cutting down the one armed bandit that laid a hand on Clare, the bandit leader proceeds to attack. After Teresa successfully parries his first strike, he goes on a lengthy tirade about how his [[WhipSword Falcon Sword]] renders him untouchable and his attack unavoidable. During that time, Teresa is shown to have a blank, almost bored look on her face. The kicker is when the bandit leader [[TemptingFate audaciously proclaims that Teresa wouldn't be able to get within arms' reach]], only for [[SingleStrokeBattle Teresa to cut him down faster than he could react.]]

* Chapter 33, one has to wonder what must have thought the awakened being of Gonahl, the one Ophelia and Clare were sent to fight together, ''[[GoneHorriblyWrong in theory]]'': the Awakened being introduced herself only to be largely ignored by the two warriors as [[AxCrazy Ophelia]] was far too busy messing with Clare and Clare was far too busy keeping Raki safe and [[UnfriendlyFire trying not to be brutally murdered by Ophelia]]. At some point all the Awakened being was doing was just watching as Ophelia kept threatening Clare, utterly uncaring that ''there was a giant tentacle monster right next to her''. The awakened one's face at the center of [[http://mangafox.me/manga/claymore/v06/c033/21.html this panel]] really says it all. At last Ophelia's attention was redirected toward the enemy she was supposed to fight... After being physically stopped from pursuing Clare by the Awakened being herself. Villains prefer to have people pay attention to them, you know that Ophelia?
