Cleganebowl is not UNconfirmed just postponed. End of the series everyone's going to go to Casterly Rock where Cersei and the rest of the kekburns dwell. Dany probably will accuse her of holocausting Kings Landing, Davos of incest, and she'll just smirk and ask for a trial by combat naming the Mountain as her champ. Out of the shadows, the repetent Valonquar. And it finally happens.

POSTPONED =/= CANCELLED

Arya's storyline makes perfect sense and I genuinely like it a lot:

>pleased that you've secured passage to Westeros and leave in only a matter of hours
>immediately after, be negligent due to arragance and a highly trained assassin sneaks up on you
>get injured, but escape. Arya's not totally without fighting skills.
>go to the only friend she has in the whole city: Lady Crane
>Crane sews her up but dies -- she was marked for death anyway (Arya knew this)
>Arya runs from Waif, has a good tumble and opens up her stitches (not an effortless getaway as others on this board presume)
>Deliberately leads Waif to secret hideout, where she then cuts the lights and handily kills the waif since she has trained to fight in the dark.
>It's not unreasonable for her to sneak back into the House of Black and White; she's been training there for 2 seasons, thus it's not implausible for her to know how to get in and out
>Jaqen has always liked Arya, so it's not strange to see him let her go.

Everything makes perfect sense. The problem is people create these unrealistic expectations for everyone's storyline and when show doesn't go exactly the way they hoped, they declare the episode is shit by default. Not every episode has to have some big huge "hold the door" - type reveal.

If anyone spent 5 seconds reasoning out Arya's storyline they would know it makes way more sense than any of the bullshit people made up last week.

Not the guy that you're replying to, but this is a misconception. He said his take on war could be perceived as more realistic than that of Lord of the Rings, but only in as much as he chose to focus on the consequences of war as opposed to just the act itself. He respects Tolkien quite a bit, even if he isn't the biggest fan of his work.

>The war that Tolkien wrote about was a war for the fate of civilization and the future of humanity, and that’s become the template. I’m not sure that it’s a good template, though.

But the vast majority of wars throughout history are not like that.

Joffrey gets the dagger from Robert's armory after overhearing Robert saying that Bran was better off dead.

Nothing comes of it because Tyrion can't figure out who sent him. He suspects Cersei, but it's probably Littlefinger. In the midst of battle no one was like to notice, let alone care.

Why is she so ugly in the show

Asked this in the last general. Didn't get an answer.

After Robert's Rebellion, the Houses elect Robert as king not because he lead the wars, but because his paternal grandmother was a Targaryen. Eddard and a few others state this in the postwar period. If Targaryen blood was an important decision is succession, why did they go around killing almost all Targaryens besides Viserys and Danaerys? Maybe in an act of aggression, but why would they impost a former house's rules in throne ascendance? Doesn't it make more sense for Robert to be elected because he brought the houses together? Before you ask, that wasn't the reason he was given the throne. At all.

Can anyone explain this?

>>
>>70810460
The Targaryen bloodline was really a non-issue at heart. They mentioned it so as to cement Robert's legitimacy and slightly win over the Targaryen loyalists they'd just been fighting against. It's an empty statement. Robert won the throne through right of conquest, not through blood. Effectively after he wins the war, Targaryens are banished, and not part of the line of succession any more.

Another reason for Jaqen to let Arya go is because she replaced her life with the life of the Waif. Jaqen always said "it's all the same to the many-faced god." Meaning that it makes no difference that the Waif died since either her life or Arya's would have satisfied the debt to the many-faced god.

It doesn't have to make sense to us, it has to make sense to the characters. Also, things happen that don't make sense all the time. We can only speculate as to their collective train of thought, but our understating of their actions doesn't validate them. Anyways my guess is that they elected Robert based on his targaryan blood because it seemed fair at the time, and they killed all the other targaryans to root out competition and revenge.

the Targ bloodline was just so Jon Aran could 'legitimize' it. Like, look this guy has a """"""""""""""claim""""""""""""" to the iron throne so that's why we're rebelling against the mad king and its totally """"""""""justifiable"""""""""" now. If Baratheons didn't have that relation I'm sure they would have come up with something else. Some Targ married someone really long ago, ergo claim to the throne.

Book Arya is becoming an assassin and learning to be a Faceless Man. She is going through Batman-like training and also learning about being a warg. She is going to eventually kill those people on her list, but she is also loyal in a way to the Faceless Men who are actually a mysterious organization that does crazy shit... not a fucking hit squad that takes coppers to kill some singer in the street. Arya in the book is merciless and kills people all the time, not "Oh boo hoo, I don't want to kill someone like that actress."

Faceless Men are probably one of my biggest non-sandsnek related complaint, in the books it would cost you more than a lordship and a holding to hire the Faceless Men to kill Dany. They were in all different places kill people to impersonate them or making it look like an accident.

In the book you are right, but in the show High Sparrow is somehow a homophobe and cracks down on people's freedom. It isn't that he frowns upon people that go to whores or are gay so much as he thinks they need to be burned or tortured to renounce their ways.

>Randomly has a large amount of money when she was literally a beggar a few episodes ago, the faceless men gave her no money.
Also not blind anymore. A lot has changed since then, which makes it plausible that she's more capable of committing petty theft.
>Gets stabbed in some very bad ways that probably should have gotten infected.
And who says they won't still? It hasn't been that long. And even if they don't, it's not like every stab wound = infection. And even if it did, Crane treated it.
>Lady Crane is somehow a surgeon and capable of treating nasty gut wounds.
They literally explain this in the show.
>Waif acts like an ass and taunts Arya rather than acting like a trained assassin with almost 20 years of experience.
Waif has shown time and again that she holds a personal grudge against Arya for some reason. Obviously she's not the mature, calculated assassin everyone thinks she is.
>Waif has a high speed chase with Arya for no reason, jumping around and charging in plain daylight rather than stalking her.
Why does this make any difference? Who cares?
>She could have just ambushed her and killed her multiple times, but for some reason took her stupid pills.
What from the show makes you think she could have ambushed her at any time? Even if she could, she ambushed her when she felt like it, and that's all we need to know.
>Arya uses dark fighting to beat Waif, even though Waif went through the same training but even more training.
She went through blind training?
>Jaqen acting afraid and trying to throw her a bone with "At last a girl is nothing" only to have Arya throw out some tripe about being a Stark and going back to Winterfell...
He wasn't afraid. The Waif died, therefore a death has been given to the many-faced god. "It's all the same to the many faced god." Jaqen doesn't care who died.

We never see theft on screen, if she had been shown stealing from a few people while she prepared for her final fight with Waif, then it would have been better. Instead we just are shown that suddenly she has more than enough money to charter a ship to Westeros and force them to leave ahead of schedule.
>Waif has shown time and again that she holds a personal grudge
They showed that Waif is just the face of whoever is playing Waif, just as Jaqen is the face of whoever is playing the priest. Technically the Waif who started out Arya's training and started acting like she had a grudge is now Jaqen. D&D forgot that Waif is actually multiple people that play her over the course of Arya's training.
>Why does this make a difference? Who cares?
Assassins, especially a legendary group of magical assassins, are supposed to do things in the dark. They aren't supposed to have high speed chases and let everyone see them in their public face chasing after a bleeding girl. Especially considering how the Faceless Men are supposed to make deaths look like accidents most of the time.
>What in the show makes you think she could have ambushed her at any time?
The fact that she was in the room with lady Crane and could have just sneaked up behind her and stabbed her. The fact that she could have/should have taken the long way and just come around a corner and stabbed Arya as she ran by.
>She went through blind fighting training?
Yes, all Faceless Men learn to fight blind, they learn to act like other people, they have the same skills and go through the same training. Certain Faceless Men have different specialities like poisoning or accidents, but they all go through the same basic training. How could a Faceless Man impersonate a blind person if they didn't have the training.
>"It's all the same to the many faced god."
Don't even get me started on how they fucked up that religion. "You killed someone so I have to drink poison"...

The Hound has returned and he's hanging out with Beric. And where are they? Near Riverrun conveniently. It just so happens Ms. Tarth and her squire are on their way back north. She has the sword, completed her oath, said her good-bye and will never make the battle of the bastards in time. It looks to me that she is on a direct course for another encounter with the Hound. I'm thinking Beric will hang her for being a traitor if they all meet, the proof of her loyalty the Lannister sword they made such a big deal about this past episode.

Not a montage, but having her carrying her sword and looking determine while walking past a few people, then after she passes them she ducks around a corner and pulls out a few purses. Something to show us that she has skills, something on screen rather than just implied to have happened between cuts.

The last two episodes were "Happens off screen" the series. Everyone either dies off screen, has a fight off screen, or makes some kind of bargain off screen. We are just supposed to except that these things probably happened and were awesome because of the way a bunch of extras talk about the event we SHOULD have seen.

At points it felt that, rather than watching GoT, we are watching a newspaper being read to us about what is happening today in GoT.
