Yoma, creatures with an unquenchable desire for human flesh, mercilessly ravage the land. The Claymore - exceptional beings born of a fusion between humans and Yoma - stand as their sole nemesis, wielding their strength and intelligence as they travel across the terrain in search of combat. Amidst this turmoil, we are introduced to Clare, a Claymore who is fueled by both her victories and defeats, and whose sorrow-filled past has left her scarred and withdrawn. Her quest for retribution is marked by brutality, solitude, and contempt. In a world where the hunters may become the hunted, the scars of an ancient war are borne by all.
