Claymore 107
Miria is dead. Yay, Worf Effect.
It's effective, but expected. Actually, I thought that she would end up sacrificing herself to save Clare, Deneve and Helen from Priscilla several chapters back. She has been outright stated to be the only member of their team of seven to still be stronger than Clare, so as per shonen tradition, she needed to die. The way she ended up dying was... bleak. But that's Claymore, the manga where Jean, Flora and Undine, all of whom were budding flowers as far as characterization is concerned, end up being killed off consecutively with only Jean's last moment reflecting any semblance of glory. It fits, but... Miria was still a main character; she had more characterization than anyone but Clare. This wasn't a proper sendoff, and since Miria was the most popular living character... well...
Obviously she's not dead.
Obviously.
Because Phantom.
