Rally Vincent and Minnie May are twogirls with a lot of fire power. When they are not busy managing their gun store, they are working as bounty-hunter duo the Gunsmith Cats. Rally's incredible gunslinging skills and Minnie's obsession for big explosions make the GunSmith Cats a deadly force, and every task an adventure.
Both series feature central characters with a 'team' and they're all bounty hunters. Sufficiently short run OVA's as well that you get to the meat of the plot quickly. The idea of 'run and gun' isn't just for action, the characters are built this way during the shows as well so no time is really wasted on getting to know them before getting to the story, both story and characters are built as the show goes on.

Well claymore and murder princess have both got a lot of sword fighting, (sword vs sword and sword vs something else) claymore has got a higher blood and gore level than murder princess main characters are in both women which have overpowering skill in combat and in the end.. both are also fighting an enemy that should be far stronger than them. i think alltogether those who like murder princess should like claymore and other way around.
