Line 5:
''[[Claymore]]'' is chock-full of [[Action Girl|kickass females]], most of whom [[Defrosting Ice Queen|hide a tender side]] and at points the [[Les Yay]] levels rise to high heavens. Most of that is probably due to the fact that it's a series with an almost entirely female cast that spends a reasonable amount of time exploring the relationships between its characters. However, there have also been indications that Claymores are [[Asexuality|not interested in that kind of thing]], perhaps, as a [[Fan Wank|side effect of their mutation]].
Think ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha (

Line 12:
** The first bit of a [[Les Yay]] in the series involves Clare carrying this out on an old friend of hers, Elena. According to Clare, they shared a bed on a regular basis in order to comfort each other during the painful process of transforming into Claymores.
* [[Hot-Blooded|Helen]] and [[The Stoic|Deneve]] probably have the most [[Les Yay]] of any two characters in the series, on account of the fact that [[Heterosexual Life Partners|they're very close friends who do just about everything together.]]
** The fact that they have [[Red Oni, Blue Oni|contrasting personalities]] and often have a [[Jerk
** Helen also has a fair bit of [[Les Yay]] with Clare, such as going into a screaming rage with [[Berserker Tears]] when Clare is afraid she's [[Super-Powered Evil Side|gone past her limit]] and asks Helen to [[I Cannot Self-Terminate|kill her before it's too late.]]
** Deneve also gets quite a bit of it with [[Amazonian Beauty|Undine]] during the Northern Campaign arc. {{spoiler|The fact that after Undine's death Deneve carries her sword as a tribute only adds to it.}}
Line 21:
* Tabitha is ''very'' devoted to Miria after the Northern Campaign, something that several characters point out at varying times.
** She also gets into a fight with Deneve when Deneve {{spoiler|tries to prevent her going to rescue Miria from the Organization.}} Shortly after that, Tabitha punches out Deneve for insulting Miria. It bears mentioning that Deneve is a ''much'' stronger fighter than Tabitha.
* Yuma and Cynthia get quite a bit of it when Cynthia [[Taking the Bullet|uses her body to shield Yuma]]. The subsequent revelation that Cynthia has been a [[Death Seeker]], which Cynthia follows up by invoking [[I Cannot Self-Terminate]]. Yuma answers by [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|Straddling Cynthia, placing her hands on Cynthia's chest]] and delivering a [[How Dare You Die
* Fans of intergenerational pairings among the fanbase have picked up Teresa's [[Parental Substitute|quasi-maternal]] relationship with Clare and run with it. Clare taking off her clothes before hugging Teresa provides fodder for quite a few [[Fan Vid|fanvids]] and [[Fan Art|fanarts]].
* Pages 25 and 26 of chapter 116 scream "LES YAY" so hard that it's funny.
