I hate team green but Aemond is out here catching bodies. I can’t help but like him😂
@@BlackLotus2077 that’s because he has vhagar. He is a skilled fighter but I don’t think he would fare well in a 1v1 sword fight with Daemon for example. And he sneak attacks all the time on dragonback
why do you hate "team green"
Unlike in the source material, the show has made it clear that Rhaenyras oldest son was born out of treason and illegitimacy meaning the Greens were right in sitting Aegon on the Iron Throne, as if Rhaenyra took the Crown her heir would be a Strong and not a Targaryen. In the book it could always be argued her heir was in fact a Targaryen but the show for some stupid reason made it clear he was a Strong. Any viewer who is a fan of House Targaryen, which I would be the majority of viewers would not support the "team" that wanted to sit a non Targaryen on the Iron Throne
@@thebruisedkind5345 well, if there is no civil war, the prophecy for a song of ice and fire won't happen tho
@@dwiki428 but why would would viewers who are fans of House Targaryen cheer for the "team" that wanted to make a Strong, not a Targaryen the Prince of Dragonstone and potentially the King. They should have left the lineage of Rhaenyra oldest son ambiguous like they did in the show
Her son is still half Targaryen you know. Allicent children are all half Targaryen as well..
I legit went to hug my dog after watching this. I know dragons and dogs are different but the bond is very similar.
Sameee
Very true! Only difference is that dogs won’t charge into battle just because their owners want to. You need specific breeds for that.
It really is like watching your pets fight other pets. Really upsetting.
😂
Sunfyre's and Aegon II's winter arc just started
Alicent should just blame herself over what happened to Aegon. She gave him the worst motherly advice and gaslit him big time. Why should Aegon feel greatful to the “sacrifices” that they all made for him? He didn’t want the throne. They just used him as a puppet to climb for power, he literally has no say. He protested to his baby boy being paraded like a dead dog after his death and no one listened to him.
@@GLitiatc0 Otto really didn’t think this very well when he decided to put Aegon on the throne. He and Alicent just kept being petty and trying to undermine Rahenyra’s claim (putting corly’s brother as lord of the tides and trying to convince Viserys that jayce and luke were savages). But they couldn’t do anything else. Preparing Aegon for ruling when Viserys is still Alive would just be treason… so you end up with a rapist drunk grieving brat as your « king » or puppet… no wonder he F up every plans the Greens prepared for god Knows how Many years 😂
While it was dark, Otto's plan of showing the kid to the public really was a great political move lol
@@sproductionsinc it was a brilliant move for sure. But it does show that once again the King had no real power, he’s just a tool for others to increase their social status.
@@bluemonger All princes are prepared for rule because mortality is high... that wouldn't have been a problem, Alicent is just a horrible mother. And probably thinks way too high of herself, thinking she is wise.... we haven't seen a single smart decision by her so far, or a great strategy about the war. Her only well adjusted child is the one that she didn't raise, that's in Oldtown.
That little head nudge with Aegon got me. But dont drink and dragonride guys.
@@shockmesane4158 The god’s drunkest dragondriver
Sunfyre didn't deserve this. He and Aegon had a very close bond.
46:08 High Valyrian actually has a complete grammar system and vocabulary etc, and you can even learn it on Duolingo. Me and some friends have been learning it for a while and speak to each other in high Valyrian at times just for fun.
Was looking for someone to mention this thanks!! As said. High. Valyrian is a complete language as the Author had to complete a set of competition task among the best language creators in the world he won and made his way to create this language and Dothraki for the series, and if that's not impressive enough, have you seen Dune? and Chaksoba language? Yep guess who made it a complete language too 😜
it's quite obvious that Aemond was trying to kill Aegon he already showed that he wanted the throne to himself from season 1 let alone all the humiliation and disrespect Aegon gave him through out the years even after he becomes king
Rhaenys and meleys want to give the green a big blow by dealing huge damage to the biggest dragon and that is why rhaenys ordered meleys to return and attack again and that look from Meleys saying that she is ready to strike for the second time and finish the job. This two knows each other very well by just eye contact, true rider and dragon bond.
Episode 4 will go down as one of the most legendary episodes. Aemond’s and Vhagar’s entrance was so epic, but Meleys put up a great fight 💯
Yes it was
U mean Aemond?
@@Onii-chan_choso Yes, thank you
Vhargr is 180 years old Granny and has super Energetic Hot Blood Rider. She is fighting despite being so old
"Princess Rhaenys made no attempt to flee. With a glad cry and a crack of her whip, she turned Meleys to her enemies." - Fire & Blood (Im fuckin cryin bros) RIP to the Red Queen, and The Queen Who SHOULD’VE Been.
44:38 Cole has been recruiting the people and beheading those who refuse. That's why he has more people and the Simon strong guy said to daemon he tripled his strength while marching since leaving Kings landing
We also got a shot in episode 3 of an army leaving Kings Landing as well as Cole referring to the army setting up camp behind them just before Baela and Moondancer ambushed them.
Don't forget, and I'm sure that Rhaenys didn't forget, that if Vhagar isn't neutralized, she and Aemond will go after Rhaenyra and Baela and Rhaena and the Velaryon fleet (and Corlys) and Rhaenys could not stand to have that happen, not if she had the slightest chance of preventing it. Also, she is a Targaryen Princess, the grand-daughter of a Targaryen King, and the daughter of a Targaryen prince who was killed by enemies while defending the realm in a military campaign. This is war and Rhaenys doesn't flee.
52:00 - For fairness sake it should be pointed out that Aegon never wanted to be King and neither was he prepared for the role, not by his father or mother's side. While Alicent did have a point that Aegon should hear out his council and learn more from them before going gung ho on making decisions, its not really fair for her and most of the others to be talking down to him when they put him in this role in the first place, they should be helping guide him along constructively rather than just dismissing him entirely after everything.
I like how you guys caught on to Cole's plan, most other reactors I see are quick to label him as cocky out of wanting him dead.
Rhaenys went there to help Rook's Rest, if she she left she would be abandoning Rhaenyra's allies which would damage her cause and make her side look like they would abandon allies when the going gets tough. Retreat simply wasn't an option for her sadly.
Also the Dragon in the dungeon you mention, Vermithor, has no rider to it and thus isn't something Rhaenyra's side can use at this point and practically a non factor. No counting Meleys Rhaenyra's side only has 5 dragons they can send out out, Daemon's , Jaecary's, Baela's, Joffret's and Rhaenyra's own one. Of those only Daemon's dragon is large enough to challenge Vhagar and he's currently isolated at Harrenhal away from the others.
The other dragons are around similair size to Lucerys dragon Arrax and thus would be no match for Vhagar, even if they all banded together against her. Simply put, there was no one available who could have helped Rhaenys in this situation.
Everytime I hear someone say Rhaenys should have ran im like damn these team Black supporters don't care for the common folk, these people is out her fighing in Rhaenyras name and if Rhaenys leaves them she is signing their death certificate, because she has a chance to fight Vhagar the soldier at the castle had a 0% chance.
Rhaenys reason for staying is up in the air, is it guilt of not killing them last season, honor of dying a riders death in battle, duty to fight until the very end and potential takeout 2 dragons, fear that Aemond was so unhinged after attacking his own brother thge king that we would chase her back to Rhaenyra and for everyone that says they should have sent more dragons only Daemons dragon could have helped Jace and Baela dragon would be eaten by Vhagar.
Aemond the Kinslayer is 2-0
46:00 They are not talking giberish, there is actually a whole language they invented called high valyrian. You can even learn it on duolingo haha
Rhaenys was sent by Queen Rhaenyra to protect the people of Rooks Rest in this Battle. Just because Vhagar shows up to fight it doesn't mean the Battle is over. If Rhaenys had fled back to Dragonstone, running away from the Battle and Abandoning the people of Rooks Rest, Rhaenyra's claim would be viewed as weak. Like Queen Rhaenyra runs away when things get tough. That's the simple answer for Rhaenys's suicide mission. Put even simpler, there were still people to protect.
By the Queen 👑 Who *ALWAYS* Was 💔 ❤️
58:19 Aegon playing with Sunfyre while Rhaenys getting her dragon ready to fight
boor Sunfyre start the fight with a fire by his drunk rider just to blind himself and get beat up by Meleys and get burned later on by Vagar💔 i feel bad for him
also it's their fault that Aegon got done like that they didn't share anything with him
he did leave the table while they are talking about the war but he did that after knowing they don't care about him now their king as cooked
This season has done a great job of humanizing Aegon and making his story a little tragic. Kinda felt a bit bad for him in the end xd
House Blackwood is one of the favorite house of the nerd fans from the books. Seing them in live action is a long awaited dream since they were completely cut from GOT
@@GustavoCardoso95 same , I'm kinda sad that they removed alyssane blackwood
@@aishaaisha6626 yeah! I was sad they skipped burning mill but hopefully we'll get some action from her and bloody ben
Rhaenys showed that if you’re an experienced rider you can beat aemond and vhagar. If her and daemon would’ve storm the castle to kill vhagar when they said so, they would’ve taken care of it no problem.
She was outmatched from the start, she never had a chance of beating vhagar in a 1v1.
High Valyrian is an actual language you can learn its not gibberish 😂
The captions were correct, they always have been. 😊 Aegon doesn't know the language.
Yes, everyone had the same feeling. It was incredible but extremely sad 😢. I definitely wasn't ready for this episode 4 😭
That 'servant' with the tea is Grand Maester Orwyle, a servant in a sense but much more😂
re amount of risk on rhaenyra's jaunt to kings landing: remember the era these folks live in -- no photos, no magazines, no 24-hour tv or worldwide internet. maybe there's a bust or statue at the palace, depending on the artist's skill. who really knows what anyone they never met actually looks like? at best, all the public knows is that she's a petite blond. and the palace staff has already been purged at least twice, after viserys died and after jaehaerys' murder. the risk of recognition is a lot smaller than you'd think.
It's crazy how big vahgar is but yet so sneaky in the books vhagar would burn the river lands, then daemond would look for them and could never find them they always disappeared
They did sunfyre dirty ..
Not really.... He then becomes a beast and kills two dragons
Vhagar is a female
Cool detail but the Blackwood we saw, Willem, was the young boy who killed the Bracken man when they were appealing to Rhaenyra for her hand in marriage. He’s been a savage since he was just a kid.
Aegon's succesor is his daughter Jaehaera, at least according Andal laws which he uses to justify his own rights. If Jaehaera's right is to be ignored, that remains yet to be spoken, either on-screen or by writers. (But since Jaehaera is 4-year-old, Aemond would hold power regardless if he had crown or not.)
Thank you so much for posting the good reaction video! Please reaction to The Elusive Samurai. 🙏 This anime was produced by CloverWorks, which produced wind breaker. I loved the first episode. Anime is really amazing 🔥
At this point I just can't wait to see how they will take Vhagar down, the only one I feel that could match Aemond's crazyness is Daemond, but it would also be pretty symbolic if Rhaenyra's elder son took him down. Man, dragon fights are absolutely the hype on this series!
cole was recruiting loyal soldiers the entire time he was riding. He didn't leave with a lot but he had more before his first fight and gained each time.
Meleys is the largest dragon with a rider on the Black faction. Team Black has the 2nd largest dragon but it has no rider yet
My sweet sweet summer children, you thought aemond cared about his family? Nooooo
the greens still have also Heleana dragon, Dreamfyre that is like Mealys size or bigger
You know Heleana has a decoration of Harrenhal with an owl. So is Alys freaking telling the truth😂
Vhagar vs meleys wasn't all that close, Vhagar sustained almost no damage, she's totally fine. Meleys had no chance in a 1v1 against Vhagar, it was only matter of time before vhagar killed her.
Rhaenys had multiple reasons she didn't return to dragon stone. She wasnt going to abandon lord staunton, the lord she came to defend. Another reason is the damage meleys had already sustained against Vhagar. She knew wherever meleys landed, she would have to stay grounded till her wounds healed. She would be unable to take off due to her leg being broken.
And yes 3 of those eggs are the same ones danarys gets 170 years or so later
3/4 of them
No….it’s not.
Dany’s egg most probably came from when elissa farman stole three of dreamfyre’s egg and sold it somewhere in essos during the reign of king Jaehaerys.
And even in the show also , sure for some reason the director of the 3rd episode geta patel said that those were actually dany’s egg ( which makes no fucking sense at all ) but then later on , the show runner Ryan condal even stated that those were indeed not dany’s egg.
And beside , syrax looks nothing like denaerys’s dragon.
Sure the books never outright confirm the elissa farman theory but there’s implications that it actually is , and author george r r martin does it a lot in his work.
@@stalinskull4658it's already been confirmed that it's her eggs
@@MrAgentsasco alright… lets just assume for instance, they changed the book lore and that the show and the books are entirely separate canon.
But still the episode director is saying something and the show runner is saying something else that contradicts the director…I don’t know it’s just a mess atp🤷♂️
@@MrAgentsasco Ryan Condol has reclarifies that it is not her egg. The director who directed that episode made a mistake when she mention it in the interview.
I think the few guys cole had when the dragon chased them were just a scouting crew. There were probably more cuz i might be remembering wrong but i think cole tried to get alicents brother to slow down and stay with the rest of the guys and not ride ahead.
I find it beautiful to provide moments of rapprochement between dragon riders all the same.
why on Earth didn’t they listen to Daemon when he SUGGESTED Ceraxes and Meleys, the red dragon siblings, team up to take out Vhagar!? this is why he be lashing out, because they don’t listen to him!
maybe cuz rhaenyra didn’t command it. she was fine when daemon suggested it.
He still needs to keep his emotions in check.
the show portrayed it as if rhaeyns had the choice to leave but she decided to fight....thats not what happened all 3 of them were "dancing" in mid air and crashed on the ground ..only vhagar got up !!
One hour of y’all???? YESSS
Wow you figured the greens plan quite fast! Nice job!!!
meleys was outstanding in this battle I think rhaenys chose to stay and fight was in order to wound and inflect damage as much as possible on vhagar so the next dragon who would face vhagar would have a better chance killing her
This episode really showed me why the Greens getting rid of Otto was thier biggest mistake because they all dropped the ball this episode. Aegon is upset that Ser Criston Cole is making plans without consulting him but when he did it in episode 2 by sending Ser Arryk to kill Rhaenyra you didn't say anything then instead you rewarded him by making him your hand so now he feels like he can do whatever he wants. Aemond's and Ser Criston Cole plan may have worked but it was not the smart move, because killing Rhaenys was not a win. They should've went to Harrenhall while Daemon was by himself and his guard was down because he's been hallucinating and they could've ambushed him. But now not only do the Blacks have Harrenhall and the Riverlands, they also have the North, the Narrow Sea, the Blackwoods and Vhagar killed the Sea Snakes wife. They should've thought that through a little bit more.
Also there are ppl who are comparing aegon to joffery...and overall that's not entirely fair or accurate;
Joffery was chaotic evil...
Aegon II is more chaotic neutral...at least ppl want to actually talk to him..at least he actually sleeps around with girls, instead of using them as dart boards...
I want to know if the Three Eyed Raven is doing his thing through the weirwood trees and influencing events
House Blackwood had a major character in the first Game of Thrones series and is an important secondary house in the books/history. The character from the first show is below:
The Three-Eyed Crow who is a legitimized bastard of a Targaryen King and House Blackwood Mistress.
Light spoilers about House Blackwood's background, not it's characters that might appear in the show
House Blackwood still follow the old Gods, maybe the only large house outside the North to do so. Their seat, Raventree Hall, has a Massive Weirwood tree that is dead, but has thousands of ravens roost in it at night. Consider wargs exist...
House Blackwood and Bracken can both field much larger Armies than their overlord House Tully, but they had fought each other to the point of being weaker than House Tully at the time of Aegon's Conquest, hence Aegon choosing house Tully to rule the Riverlands.
House Blackwood supported the claim of Rhaeny's son Laenor over Viserys.
Wouldn’t count my boy aegon out just yet. Might live
Have you even read the book, omg get onto the hype “ aemond is gonna be the king “ CMONNNNNNNNNNN
If you thought this was going to have a happy ending, then you haven't been paying attention...lol
Alicent and Viserys made Aegon the way he is and then she blames him for being the way he is. He was her child. She should have raised him better. Paid more attention to his training instead of letting him run wild. She raised him to be a weak man and then complains he’s weak? With nobody guiding him what did they expect? That he’d get the crown and suddenly be a strong leader? The kid didn’t even want to be king. He literally ran from the idea and had to be dragged kicking and screaming to the throne but somehow it’s his fault he’s not good at it?
Ayee yall watching this .had to click niceee yall got good taste like me lol
Dont forget no one has claimed vermithor
Those are Daenerys dragons (the eggs)
Am i the only one that would've send all my dragons to win this war and then just marge on kings landing with everything. Big dragon or not if he was fighting 2-3 dragons at the time the big dragon would've died.
Sunfyre won't even die the amount of plot armor they have on their side is crazy.
42:20 not Mel being oblivious to social cues and context;
The dude gave the tea...and no other girl but the queen is in the room...he likely knows all the intell of every person within the castle....
Said queen did not specify which girl the tea was for...as she did previously with that other chick that got SA by aegon...
The priest gave additional information about the tea because he already came to the conclusion ahead of time....choosing to help, to be discreet and mind his business
47:50 another example of social cues and context to pick up on, tho this one is a little more subtle; alicent has been going through a multitude of books, regarding history...and based on the manner of speaking, Lil foot can assume she's doubting or is unsure of whether aegons rule..he isnt sure on the info in detail, but I can guess that alicent is more doubtful now, as opposed to before....
And of course he knew right away after looking at the tea
Not the first time being obvious, its no wonder shows today dump so much exposition when people can’t get basic cues
The queen always had more dragons than aegon or the greens tbh
I think the Greens would win the war if Aegon II would stay out the way and listen to his advisors.
Finally!!! Excited for this one
Helaena has a dragon right ? So, theres 2 for greens
they have a brother Otto talked about him twice Dareon i believe also they said his dragon is almost at "fighting age" so maybe moondacer size so 3 and 4 with sunfyre if he makes it
U just wait for Dareon
I said in another video and ill sat it here, that It really just shows that deep down, alicent "misheard" or "misunderstood" because really....deep down, she wanted to take rhaenyra's birth right away....
Rhaenyra...the girl who had been shucking her duties left and right...every chance she got....living how she wants..
while alicent herself had to abide by rules and order... married an old dude who was king, and had to bare his children...going through the tradition of highborn ladies...
Alicent was lowkey...always a hater....granted it is understandable tho...but still...
We kept asking to see Dragons but at what cost?😟
love you guys!
13:45 Trying to play off some spoilers you got I see 😂
Yiu thjnk there is a good and a bad team? And just one protagonist from one team? Thats not such a show.
I hope you dont think the team who killed a little child in his bed is the "good" team.
Well most of the delululu blacks would say it's justified..
@LucerysOwner thats crazy. Hypocritical at best liking Daemons terrible acting and hating on Criston Cole all the time who never did such vile and vicious things. Alicent is just a protagonist as Rhaenyra and didn't want war either. Aemond is as badass as Daemon if not more and people forget who took his eyes when he did nothing beforehand (or rather he was getting bullied by the strong bastards).
I mean tbh Cole is in every right to kill them they are traitors to the crown since aegon was crowned he is the king and they swore a oath to him
Guys, u can stop blurring the brutal scenes, UA-cam doesn't give a shit about it, other Reaction channels are watching this show and 16+ Animes too, and they are not getting demonetized. So please just let it slide, keep rolling. Really man, it's a less work for you to do Steph, Just leave it.
We rather not take chances. we've always gotten hit when we keep graphic stuff in our reactions. You might not get hit right away but they will get you eventually.
Don't be fool now, in true history there kid Kong who did amazing things for the people and we're known for being good and strong and they actually fought in war just being 16, like the two twin king of Ethiopia for example they were the children of Solomon from the bible true history character, Solomon was known for his wisdom so it make sense😂
Vhagars a girl
Aemond is not going to be king.
I don’t know how ro feel about this series, I know that Rhaenyra should be queen but damn team green characters are so much more interesting for me, I know Aegon is a monster but I feel so bad for him, he doesn’t have a mother his father was completely absent even sayin “my only child”. Alicent is a total b@&: but every time she is on screen is super interedting and Aemond is crazy but so amazing
bom perfeito☃️❄️❄️🔥🐲🧝🏻♀️⚰️☃️❄️❄️😀👍👍👍
Kraxis the Diamond Dragon will take revenge on Vigar and kill her in the same way 🫡
bro i wont lie but you always say the obvious and don't pay attention most of the time. it wont help
So Rhaenys walks up to some random black guy, probably the only one around and says "hey you look like my husband" even though the two actors look nothing alike other than being black?...AND IT TURNS OUT SHE WAS RIGHT!!!!! the one random black guy milling about just happened to be the illegitimate son of the main black actor on the show..did that really happen? LMAO
turns out Rhaenys racist intuitions were spot on
That’s probably the worst take I’ve ever read. And there are a lot of dumb stuff people comment about on this show. Bravo
@@GLitiatc0 really, so what did I get wrong, how did the scene actually go down?...you think those two black actors look alike too?..lol
@@thebruisedkind5345 do you really think she just saw a black guy and think “whoa my husband cheated?!” Like you don’t think her and Corlys didn’t talk about anything beforehand considering how old the dude is? Did you see Rhaenys ask all the other black people in the show if they were his bastards? Nah. You reaching lmao
That some utter bs that you just wrote... 🙄
