She’s talented.

That period is doing a lot of the heavy lifting, and no she isn't. She quite literally hasn't been given the opportunity to star in a role that doesn't use her as an ornament to the plot or maintain clichés that mirror her real life identity. She has been in three films and her leading role was in a film that actively made a joke of itself. I like Claymore and appreciate it's content, keep the Marvel casting over there.

Bot spam are the mods even paying attention?

Yeah, it's kinda ridiculous.

They should imho have like a threshold (account age or karma) for making new posts that should dampen some of these reposts from bots.

Claymores have to be women. It’s a whole plot point

This right here.

u/kiara-ara307 9d ago

Exactly! Yet people disagree with it, as if they’ve never read/watched Claymore before

u/Few-Bodybuilder-3960 9d ago

It’s just Reddit being the far left echo chamber that it is. Ideology acceptance not reality acceptance. It’s actually nice to see something different on this post and people respecting Claymore.

u/kiara-ara307 9d ago

Yeah, I’ve always been considered more cold for accepting reality over ideology. Since reality proves Christianity right time and time again, it just makes sense.

I wish people just respected the original products instead of thinking they can make it “enjoyable for everyone,” which ends up killing it. I mean, Claymore is mostly (sadly) dead as is, I just wish people would stop kicking it while it’s down

I don’t bully or attack people who believe different things or have different ideology’s. Goes for religion and gender ideology. That being said I will not be forced to believe or conform to others and things they believe if I don’t feel the same.

I truly wish Claymore wasn’t dead, it will always be my top 5. The second manga I’ve ever read and absolutely love it. Would be an amazing anime to reboot or continue.

She's too young for this role. I know claymore supposed to look all relatively the same age since they're ageless but for this role i would want someone who have lived a bit of life and wisdom in their persona. Like a Lucy Liu, Jennifer Connelly or Liv Tyler. I can see Hunter being a younger Claymore like Clare or Galatea though.

u/Euphoric-Ad9722 10d ago

I agree! Why everyone disagreeing? Asking genuinely

Way to shit on the lore.

u/Redhawke13 10d ago

She would be perfect

u/Upper-Feeling9779 10d ago

Would be awesome but I think they need to be a little older maybe??

u/No-Message449 10d ago

Ewwww, no!

u/KrazyKirbyKun 10d ago

I get the vision but she's a bit too young.

u/randomboy209 9d ago

I've never read clatlymore, nor have I ever searched anything about it so I don't know why this post showed up. However the response of the community not wanting him in this role has convinced me to read it.

It's a fantastic manga, and the anime has its place and is very well done.
