That's the thing, with a high defense sword she'll take half the damage as claymore in a lot of situations and deal 1090 instead of 1180 damage. So she outlasts everything in that instance and deals only a tiny bit less damage (also pretty much no damage from poison).

Regardless, I answered your question in the first paragraph; short of putting a defender's sword on him, naginata is about the best choice. But...

You really don't *have* to put anything amazing on him right away too, you know, as you might want him for a raid (Agdala should be next, and that is a sword raid... and yes you'll want her). You can put whatever B rank sword on him (iron sword is the highest defense one I can think of) and he'll perform just fine.

Also, after Agdala's raid the multiple weapon system should release where you'll be able to have 3 different weapons on each character. So, after that you'll be able to have both claymore and defender's sword on Hannya to pick as the situation dictates. Claymore isn't an incredibly huge loss regardless and naginata, which you can just buy now, is superior to it.

So, my revised answer is to do nothing and wait for gumi to have an A rank sword event (high defense one anyways); he'll be just fine with whatever in the meantime.
