she might as well have killed cersei, since she can teleport, stop time enough to kill 2 people, carve them up, then fucking BAKE THEM INTO A PIE ALL WHILE UNDETECTED
ALSO I GUESS SHE GRABBED SOME FACES ON THE WAY OUT OF BRAAVOS

this whole episode was "because it'll be cool, trust me" scenes
>>
>>71363938

It was pure theatrical kino.

Wish it had been built up more than just having her smile at Jaime for that one scene.

Arya's story has been one of the worst things about the show for 2 seasons now.

This scene was stupid beyond belief. I wasn't a fan of the Arya story line since season 5, but it now has reached a whole new level of retard.

It's not like she was timid and meek in the beginning and transformed into someone tough. Her entire 'character transformation' arc is learning physical skills? What kind of shit writing is this
>>
>>71364063
SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT STEALING FACES, THE FACES ARE CEREMONIAL AND FOR APRRENTICES, THE REAL ASSASSINS CAN PUT ON ANY FACE AT ANY TIME, OR DID YOU THINK THAT A MAN HAD 40 FACES INCLUDING ARYAS ON HIM AT THE SAME TIME?

No it was predictable and Frey Pies with Manderly yelling WE ARE STORK MANG would have been better.
>>
The scene is actually pretty sad if you use your imagination to fill in for bad writing

I genuinely thought Frey pies would be retarded and not used so when she said they were there I almost felt bad for walder, like his entire world crashing in on him when he can't see his sons, and the look of horror as she pulls off her face is great

Nothing beats the first 10 minutes or when glover screams king in the north, not cuz the scene is great but because his voice is so fucking commanding

Ever since Braavos' catastrophe, Arya is the worst 'main' character by a huge margin.
>>
>>71364658
Maybe she learned after her retarded oyster girl bit that if you're going to be flagrantly just eyeballing someone you're trying to keep tabs on, you don't just stare at them while they're staring back unless you have a cover like looking like a flirt.
>>
>>71364658

Hot Pie helped her make the pies

It's not so far from Braavos to Riverrun

Nobody expected that, tommens suicide or Cersei getting the throne

Nobody predicted the explosion of the sept before this episode either

Yet people complain about the episode being predictable
>>
>>71364877

Why does Arya just assume Waif doesn't go through that training either? Arya's arc is super rushed even though it took 2 seasons to do.

No shit, I can't keep up with all of the rapid teleportation in this episode.

it was awesome, you have to admit that d&d created that arya arc masterfully now to make this scene

Arya is never going to die in this series because she has immortality plot armor.

pie was forced. enjoyed the rest.
>>
>>71365235
Maybe, but I figured she had a hate hard-on for all Lannisters after what happened in King's Landing. I don't really know how she feels about Tyrion and Jaime. I couldn't tell how she was reacting when the play she was reacting was making unreasonable villains out of Tyrion and Sansa.
>>
How did she survive this again? They skipped the scene where she got reconstructive surgery on her intestines and possibly organs, as well as the magic to stop infection.
>>
>>71365366
The problem with her revenge plot is also that it's completely redundant at this point. Everyone on her list is either dead or soon to be dead without her having to do anything at all and the one person she killed herself was some 100 year old fuck who could have died any day of old age.

bookfags and theoryfags saw this shit coming from a mile away. Knew this shit was going down ever since they revealed the origin of the white walkers. We knew that cersei would destroy part or all of kings landing because the prophesy said she would be killed by her younger brother (from the books), which we thought would be Jamie because he killed the mad king for the same shit. We knew her youngest son was going to die because he's not only a shitty character with no claim to the throne, but the prophecy said so. I didn't really know Cersei was going for the throne, but who else will rule with all those others dead? She has the best claim as of right now. We all knew R+L=J for years, we knew Dany would eventually set sail, and people were calling Aryia killing frey the moment episode 9 ended. This season wasn't bad because of shitty writing or whatever you fucks complain about. It was just boring to people like me because we weren't surprised. My notsosmartbuddyfromwork thinks this season was the best thing in existence, probably because he didn't have any expectations or idea on what will happen next. Plus with the show not being tethered to the books, they're running out of seasons and tying up loose ends. So this season got a lot more shit done that all the others combined, with a shit load of timeskips.

>>71364877
did you even watch the series?
She was un-blinded by the poison thing in the well, which acts as some sort of will from the many faced god. Jaqen tells her, even, that he can give her back her eyes. I'd say the well decides how you're going to serve the God: you either become another face, or become no-one, a face hunter.

She could have ripped the face off some girl. She face thing is not fully explained but she obviously has the gift of faces. It's magic, bitch, ain't gotta explain shit. (not really, but that's how its going ever since we saw Jaqen (or was he? Is he even human?) with Arya's face - faces are not just faces ripped from the dead.

I agree Arya's plot was fucked with episode 8. The whole lady crane thing fucked her up - she should have killed lady crane, proved she's now a ruthless killer serving the God, but then in some way make her remember her true purpose (avenging her family) which pisses off the waif, leads to a big ass fight scene, waif dies, Jaqen is pleased as all he wants are more faces for the God. Done.
This way it fucking makes sense. The stabbing, lady crane thing, etc, was just fucked up.

We don't need to know about the true nature of Jaqen or the faces. Arya makes sense as a plot armored ninja assassin from hell, but her development was CRAP because of the events leading up to episode 8. So much potential wasted.

Still my favourite character along The Hound, though.

Yeah, this. People are just legit butthurt at how the Braavos thing went, for good reason.

They had the perfect chance to develop Arya well and fucked it up with unnecessary bullshit. There was no reason for Lady Crane not to die. It added nothing, just complications over complications, leading to a bunch of shitty scenes.

Arya murdering Walder Frey was shameless normie pandering. It wasn't earned or appropriate and only thrown in so they could pretend Arya's arc wasn't a total waste of timeline. For an episode that was otherwise a 10/10, this scene was pretty bad.

What killed it was what happened in E8.
Arya goes from "oh I can't kill this actress, she's cute" to BAKING PEOPLE. People she didn't like of course, but... what the fuck.

The only real bad part of this episode was with the fat fucking crow. Dude is so annoying. The entire Cersie blowing up the cathedral part was amazing, the music was soooo fucking good.

However, a lot of them also thought Cersei would die as well.

Tommen legitimately surprised me though. Great scene.

>>71366069
Why do you think faces are necessarily physical objects. Again, Jaqen had Arya's face. Do you think Arya lost her face?

The Many-Faced God has to make sense as much as the God of Light - magic, etc.
The problem lies in shitty scene writing and shitty scenes that fucked it up.
It could have been awesome, it's probably going to be, but everyone is going to remember how Braavos ended and it's just not going to feel good.

True. She looks like a different Arya now. It's still a a shame though, with better pacing it would have been a better ending. It just seems like she teleported across the sea now, even though at nowhere in the show does it state that all of the events are moving in real time. For all we know, Arya could have killed Waif a week or a month ago. It still seems... crude to say at least.

This, Varys left for Dorne before the attack on started. Danny fought a battle, and had to rebuild all of her new ships as well as paint the sails and fix her city before she left. I think atleast a few weeks have passed. And Arya started sailing the same day she killed the waif.

Arya didn't fuck up two assassinations, she just choose her own targets. Nowhere is it implied that Jaqen really wanted those people dead more than seeing if Arya could be some kind of promised girl, able to take her own path.

Jaqen wants faces for the God. That's it. The Waif was a good enough contract killer, Arya could be a fucking apocalypse of death.

The problem is that it's never written decently. Arya takes sword lessons, she becomes good, then insert scene where she can't even hold her sword straight.
Same thing in Braavos, she learns to fight FUCKING BLIND, becoming a murder machine, then she gets stabbed without even trying to fight back. Next scene, again she's a murder machine.

One scene she murders anyone without a single regard for life, next scene the actress is too nice to kill.

It's as if two different persons wrote the storyline without talking to each other.
I'll try to forget all the bullshit and accept the fact that Arya is now the hand of God as much as Beric Dondarrion is. Only her writing in S6 was shit. Luckily she's a good actress.

>swn slit your throat

Anon, she spent the ENTIRE fifth season and 90% of this one training with assassins with the sole purpose of killing these people.

The bottom line is that Arya's wound isn't necessarily fatal or fatal looking, in the real world plenty of men and women have survived MUCH worse, including the swim into polluted city water with a gaping wound.

It's just badly written, in a show where less gruesome wounds led to instant death, and in a situation where the fight could have played out in ANY OTHER WAY and had a more interesting outcome without ruining the written plot.

Arya is a fucking ninja? Fine. Make her get wounded but while fighting, then she jumps off the bridge to escape. Same fucking scene, but now it makes sense and also builds up on the fact that Arya is now a professional killer.

Your probably sopposed to look at those scenes as flashbacks. Like, Faggot in black making it to the library is probably like - almost a year ago. Winter coming is probably at the same time as dany coming, which is at the same time as bran seeing Johns birth. Cersie blew up the church while jamie was on his way, or arriving, to kings landing. He probably has been on the road for a week or so after leaving walter frey. The scene of frey dying was the same night Jamie left. Baldynoballs arrived at dorne pretty late also. This shit is probably soooo out of order.

no, remember that king's landing to winterfell is one month. Considering he went by boat for most of the trip, it probably took less time, for the same distance but the longer trip means that the timeline of fatty reaching Oldtown is between 2 and three months of travel.

If you watch the map, Braavos from The Twins is probably two weeks of boat and horse, at worse.

Oh look, someone who actually watched and paid attention to what was said. how rare and unusual for someone to have this much clarity wherein everyone's supposed to have enough comprehending abilities to know her being blinded was done by the many faced god and her getting her sight back is his will. His will is for her to kill, it's the others who puts bells and whistles to it. If you ask me, Jaqen's the will of the many faced god made manifest.

It was too much. It insisted too many times on the same ideas. We can agree with that.

But it's obvious that everything she went through was training. If she hadn't betrayed them in the end she would have become one of them.

So yes, even if the arc was repetitive as fuck, she was perfectly trained to do that.
>>
>>71368642
Did you miss the parts where she trained to become an assassin to the point of training daily blind while living as a beggar, until she was good enough to beat The Waif BLIND?

The Braavos arc had some shitty writing, but it all happened with Arya sparing the actress, her training was well displayed, dipshit.

There have been many many countless minutes of seeing Arya spar with the Waif and learn how to kill people.

The episodes can only be so long, if you don't get it after 10 cumulative minutes of sparring and torture for the sake of streghtening Arya, you'll never get it.

He's partly right though. We've seen nothing see, jack shit, nada but hold the door and Bransperging. Then they suddenly close at least 4 differents plotline in the season finale by killing the characters. It's shit, it's food for the masses.

The only thing we'll get from this show at this point is that it will spoil the end while simplifying the story so that retards can understand.

The whole point of the "Arya getting stabbed" thing was that the waif gave in to her personal hatred of Arya and instead of going straight for the kill, wanted to make her suffer. This turns out to be a big mistake, since Arya was able to get away. And yes, people have survived far worse than what Arya got, even without modern medicine.
>but how could she even move
Adrenaline is a hell of a drug
>but she should have at least been sick because of the river
She probably was. It's likely the waif took a while to track her down, or even learn that she hadn't died.

They took the Manderly pies from the books and just applied the idea to Arya because fuck it.

Some of the directors for the show really suck.

They read Arya tries to bribe her way onto a ship to Westeros and turn it into her blazingly walking and throwing money around in the middle of the day even though she was hiding in the shadows the day before.

They read "Arya gets stabbed and escapes" and turns it into this brutal shanking.

They read "Waif pursues Arya through the streets" and turn it into some improbalbe epic chase scene.

Arya is dead, the waif took her face and cut off her own to show she's no one.

>>71370059
>people have survived far worse than what Arya got, even without modern medicine.

Yeah the problem isn't that, it's just that its badly written in and leads to scenes that make no sense and serve no purpose.

Again, I think it should have played out like this

>Arya kills lady crane, but the theatre reminds her that her true purpose is avenging her family
>Waif/Arya scenes where Waif freaks out, because of envy that she's better than her, because Arya drank from the well without losing herself (she is no one, but she's also Arya), etc.
>lead up to scene where Jaqen plays as neutral and just allows the Waif to punish Arya by killing her, but his true purpose is selecting the best hand to carry out the will of the God
>fight scene happens, Arya is better than the waif but she gets a strike in, forced to run, fight in the dark happens, done.

This would have been both easier to realize, would have given more time for fight scenes that show Arya as the lethal murderer she is, would have actually made it believable for her to kill and cook people afterwards, etc.
>>
>>71370156
>otherwise good
The whole thing was the worst part.
>>
>>71363938
As soon as I saw the pie I knew it was the 2 Freys in there. I was kindof upset they didn't let Manderly do it though like in the books. It was a lot more of a subtle revenge.
>>
>>71370475

Please do not come crying here when your impossible fanfiction turns out not true.

>An inexperienced girl
Waif and Arya are about on par. Blind Arya managed to nearly beat the Waif. Waif later beats up Arya because she's STRONGER as in MUSCLES STRONG but both are a close match, and the Waif does not appear to have any blind training.

Plus we don't know how more experience the Waif is. She might just have a couple more months under her belt. Would make sense.

Also, her training sessions start before Episode 3, so she's been training for nearly a full season and people still bitch? That's months and months of training.

Pic is the face of the waif getting beaten by Arya. Arya didn't strike back but it doesn't make the Waif being counter blocked by a blind girl better.

>>
>>71369302

>>71371224
> inexperienced.

Arya is a far stronger opponent with a sword than she is with a staff. Trained by Sirio Forrell in the art of Water Dancing, and with tuition in the art of the battlefield from Sandor Clegane.

Reminder that the waif was not training her. The waif was punishing her. It's entirely possible that because of this the waif did not know the true extent of Arya's capabilities, thus underestimating her.

And on the field of battle, a prepared swordsman will defeat an assassin every time.

It's not riverrunn, it's "The Twins", Frey's castle, and looking at the map it is quite near the coast and a short travel by boat from Braavos. Less than a month for sure. It all fits neatly, timeline wise.

>Why did everyone want Rickon Stark dead? Was he a big dick to everyone off screen?
Did you even get anything from the series so far?
Rickon Stark was the only known legit direct male heir to the Stark family. Bran is lost, Sansa is a woman, Jon is a bastard - Rickon was the strongest claim to the entire north, followed by Sansa, followed by Bran (just because he's still lost and people think he's dead by now) and lastly followed by Jon, that is a bastard (though technically no longer, as he's Targaryen-Stark in reality, which would make him pretty fucking noble) and so is unfit to keep the north united under a family name that is not his.
>>
>>71371729
Okay, let's look at this another way;

Have you ever tried fighting while blind? It's disorientating, and terrifying. More importantly though is the choice of weaponry. Arya has an actual sword, whereas the waif has a dagger.

Reach means everything in the dark, where even the slightest mis-step will bring swift death before you even know whats happening.
>>
>>71371636
I dunno, but that's the smallest problem and would be easily excused by some extra plot behind Jaqen's plans, while the whole lady crane stuff, stabbing, chase - that's just shit writing, and the main issue.

Nobody would be bitching at Arya besting The Waif if the writers didn't write her out as a huge bitch directly before that scene, even after all the training.
>>
>>71371848
Oh, a dagger? A dagger you can throw?
Maybe she's got more than one dagger.
That's a better reach than a sword.
>>
>>71371943
> throw your only weapon at a target you can't even see.

You've never fought blind.
