When a shape-shifting demon, hungry for human flesh and referred to as "youma," invades Raki's village, a solitary woman with silver eyes enters the town carrying only a sword on her back. This woman is a "Claymore," a creature engineered to be half-human and half-youma, created specifically to eliminate these monstrous entities. Following the death of Raki's family, the Claymore rescues him, but he is subsequently expelled from his homeland. Left with no other options, Raki locates the Claymore named Clare and decides to accompany her on her journeys.
As they traverse from one town to another, vanquishing youma in their path, more information about Clare's organization and her fellow warriors gradually unfolds. With each town purged and every demon obliterated, they draw nearer to the youma whom Clare has been seeking vengeance against since she chose to become a Claymore.
