Claymore

A dark fantasy epic spanning 27 issues, Claymore follows a band of half-human, half-monster warriors tasked with hunting shape-shifting creatures called Yoma in a medieval-inspired world. Published by Tokyopop from 2008 to 2015, the series is most closely associated with creator Norihiro Yagi, whose stark, elegant art and morally complex storytelling set it apart in the manga landscape. Its focus on a lone, silver-eyed warrior navigating a brutal, mistrustful society lends the series a haunting, mythic weight that resonates beyond its genre.
