*** It seems that [[spoiler:the wound only disappears if one fully Awakens, if one's body awakens and then manages to go back with Human consciousness intact then the wound stays where it is, and the stitches aren't affected by the transformation either. Both Jean and Miata had their body transformed and came back, both of their wounds didn't heal (we can't be sure in Jean's case but it's likely considering Miata) and their stitches didn't need to be repaired (again, as Miata's case shows)]]. The two cases are coherent with each other but the fact that [[spoiler:the stitches aren't affected by body transformation]] doesn't make really sense, the story seems to be telling us to just accept it.

* This started out as a bit of FridgeLogic for ''Manga/{{Claymore}}'' and then became absolutely brilliant. I kept wondering how the Claymores could exist at all. If Claymores are people with yoma flesh and blood in them but Claymores are the only ones who can hunt Yoma, then how did they get the first Claymores? Plus, how did they figure out this would even work? It wasn't until later that I realized, that wasn't FridgeLogic it was foreshadowing! [[spoiler: Since the organization created both Yoma and Claymores the Organization would have had the material from the get go. The fact that they couldn't have gotten Claymores without Claymores was a logic puzzle that was a hint to the organization's more sinister machinations.]]

*** No, I would think that all partially-Awakened Claymores would still have the wound unless their torso was also altered by the partial Awakening, which is not the case with any of the other partially-Awakened Claymores in the series (thus far).

** Alice and Beth (Numbers 1 and 2) are an experimental type of Warrior that is meant to fight as an Awakened Being. How strong they are compared to conventional Warriors is never mentioned but as Awakened Beings, their power is head and shoulders above what a conventional Warrior can achieve without Awakening herself.

* In chapter 50 Rubel makes a comment on how in this land the slavers send the young girls in the East (where the Organization has its headquarter, all but implying that the Organization itself has a role in slave trading) and the boys in the North, now why would the Organization, or anyone, want to send the boys to the North? [[spoiler:Well, obviously, the Organization is sending the boys in the North so that ''they can turn them into Awakened beings''. In chapter 112 we find out that the Organization has a facility hidden in the Northern mountains where men are brought to be transformed into half-Yoma creatures, like the Claymores, but unlike the Claymores these men aren't trained to be warriors, once transformed they are abandoned where the Organization want them to be and, because they're men, they will soon awaken being unable to control their Yoma Power. The Organization has continued to transform men into half-Yoma with the aim of producing Awakened beings, as men Awaken far too easily, and Rubel's dialogue in that early chapter was foreshadowing this reveal!]]

* Chapter 129: look at the middle seam of the warriors' uniforms and their [[BuffySpeak little turtleneck thing]]. This makes TheReveal seem so obvious now: [[spoiler:''of course'' they have [[GuttedLikeAFish a straight line wound going down their bodies]]]]. If you were a doctor, how the hell else would you put a foreign object into every part of a patient's body? --@/{{g3m1n1}}

* Chapter 129: [[spoiler: Claymores have their guts held in by a line of stitches. Now think about it. A trainee is going to be constantly needing those stitches redone as they grow, and their going to constantly be popping and stretching. And no wonder Helen and Deneve figured Clare couldn't have had a kid. Just try going through pregnancy with something like that!]] --@/Darkwing

* The fact that even after they had created some truly impressive monsters, the Organization still continued their experiments. Just how powerful are the dragons that the Organization still wasn't satisfied with their results at the time of their dissolution?
