Claymore is an anime produced by Madhouse, based on the manga of the same name written and illustrated by Norihiro Yagi.
Synopsis
The story places us in a medieval world beset by a race of demons known as Youma. These demons have the ability to change shape and have disguised themselves as humans to infiltrate villages and feed on their entrails. To face them, an organization is born that seeks to create warriors with special abilities by mixing Youma skin and blood with humans. As a result, these warriors, called Claymores, gain supernatural strength, the ability to shapeshift, and rapid healing. On the other hand, they have swords that allow them to identify the Youma from common and wild villagers. Due to their nature, Claymores are usually feared by the very villagers they manage to save.
