What I love about Aegon is that he’s smart enough to figure things out on his own, from his advisers to his surroundings. He was smart enough to lie to Aemond about his memory, smart enough to figure out his father didn’t prefer him on the throne despite what Alicent said, smart enough to know his own council was using him, stringing him like a puppet. Yet he stayed overall because he craved love, admiration and respect, but he didn’t know how to get it when everyone already saw him as an incompetent chess piece, even Alicent. It’s sad that his own mother betrayed him and offered his head in exchange for her selfish escape from the chaos she started. The same mother that he begged for love and admiration from the most. The Greens are disbanded and his own brother wants him dead too. He knows Larys is a schemer, yet he chooses to confide in his help because he’s truly alone now. Crippled and vulnerable on top of that. Damn, what a character. Though he’s done evil things, he’s definitely won over my sympathies.
Even what he said about politic was right they just never listened to him. Out of all characters he payed the biggiest price he lost his family his son his manhood his dragon
I wonder if he realize that Larys manipulate him all this time that;s why he made Cole his hand not Larys and also he knew he manipulated him when he was in bed and he ignored his talking about his name Aegon the victorious and so on because it's not working on him and in the end he mocked himself using the realms delight he knows Larys is manipulating him ,but he has no one else so he needs to go with Larys and play along and they all underestimate him even Larys
@@queenxx1690 I don't think Aegon realized that Larys is manipulating him at that very moment especially because what Larys said to him/warned him about Aemond and Alicent became true after all which gained his trust. Tom also said in an interview that Larys and Aegon have this connectivity because share a common ground (their disability) which gained Aegon's best interest. BUT he also said that despite that, he thinks Aegon still doesn't trust Larys FULLY, he still has his doubts but due to his “survival instincts”, he set that aside because Larys is his “ONLY ticket” to get out alive and away from Kings Landing. (“I don’t think Aegon wants to look too much into that at the moment. He will find cracks in the woodwork.” - Tom)
Me before season 2: looking forward to seeing more of Rhaenyra and Daemon Me after season 2: in love and obsessed with TGC's performance and the complexity and tragic of Aegon's character ❤️

"the road ahead is uncertain but the end is clear, AEGON WILL BE KING" Otto Hightower "Aegon will be king again, he is yet to see victory" Helaena Targaryen
The fact that Aegon did not even have moment of triumph in this show is sad even his coronation was interrupted in show in books it is the only time and he and Helaena have triumph really and they take fly on their dragons afterwards
Aegon is my favorite character besides Viserys. I know he’s done terrible things, but what I love about the greens is that they have layers upon layers, unlike most of the blacks. Aegon seemed to want to do good, he genuinely wanted to help his people despite what Alicent and Grandpa Otto said. He tried to please his family’s wishes, but it was never enough for them. He grew up unloved and misguided and neglected, like his siblings, but he set that aside for his wish to be a loving dad, that was until his son was killed. And he never wanted to rule, just live on the high rise, like some medieval hippie lol I sincerely can’t wait for his return. People are gonna lose their minds in season 3 and what he does! They seriously underestimate him!
This made me cry. What an amazing character we could've had if the story was made by another people. Complicated and devastating story with good written characters. Aegon is the only one i have sympathy for and interested in after s2
"It has always been so. I am not . . . I am not a cruel man, Ser Davos. You know me. Have known me long. This is not my decree. It has always been so, since Aegon's day and before. Daemon Blackfyre, the brothers Toyne, the Vulture King, Grand Maester Hareth . . . traitors have always paid with their lives . . . even Rhaenyra Targaryen. She was daughter to one king and mother to two more, yet she died a traitor's death for trying to usurp her brother's crown. It is law. Law, Davos. Not cruelty." -King Stannis Baratheon
Wow when you put it like that we can see that Aegon is the only character with actual character development that actually moves forward he never stay in place all hail King 👑Aegon II💛 and Tom for such a great portrayal of him and for you for this great edit .
He would have been a good king if his father cared about him and his mother actually showed love to him. He just gets ignored or shouted at by his parents and then they wonder why he is troubled.
He has lost so much already. Being victim of his own family. Loved only by his dragon and son which he lost 😢😢😢 Peoplejudge him for what he did to girl but they close eyes for what Rhaenyra, Daemon and Aemond did. I can't wait to see him come back and take his revange 💛💛💛💛💛
I pity Aegon from the series so much😭 His father never loved him or payed attention, his mother never loved him because he was only a prodcut of political arrangements, he was never built up to be king, yet all people around him tell him that he is unable although he is not responsible for that, he was married to his sister because of political arrangements, he never begrudged Rhaenyras claim because he was raised with the knowledge his older sister will be queen, until Criston Cole (in the books) and his mother (in the series) told him that the only way is to kill Rhaenyra and become king is the rescue for the realm and the Greens, and for all that, i pity Aegon and i love him, i want to hug him and tell him that none of this is his fault 💔❤🩹💚
its crazy the fact that alicent knew the danger she was putting aegon (who didn't want it in the first place) and her family into when she made him king was going to be far greater than the unlikely possibility of rhaenyra turning on them after she comes into power and then just abandons her son when shit hits the fan. Its even sadder how aware aegon really is and how he only became king and flew to war to win approval from his family, but ended up a cripple instead.
It makes me so mad he could have kids after RR and they took everything from him he cant have kids ,if they cut his dragon means Sunfyer is really dead ,they took his political head in show,they made him not know Valyrian which is ridiculous and got rid of support of his family
@@queenxx1690I disagree, I think watching him lose almost everything makes the audience have more sympathy and makes us want to see how he will rise out of the ash. Secondly Sunfyre is definitely alive, they showed it was still breathing at the end of the battle and Cristen described it as “long in the dying” which is very specific word choice, I definitely think it will be alive. And the no children thing I really like cause it almost puts him in the same position as Viserys where his only heir is a single daughter. And it makes sense with this interpretation that he sucks at Veleryion since the whole idea we are seeing is how he is going from a ignorant youth to potentially a player of the game of thrones based on him going with Larys (which kind of mirrors Sansa) but that is at least how I feel about the changes personally
I hate that the went the route of making him a rapist in s1 it would have been so much more interesting to care about both monarchs. I really do like the character of Aegon, i just hate that they made him seem irredeemable so we would root for the blacks
Allegedly, the r-apist part is not even confirmed. All Aegon said was that he was drunk! And I don't take him for a lier, He stood his ground against his father, protecting his brother and mother from treason for rightfully calling Rhaenyra's sons bastards...He may be many things but he's not a lier! These "Twitter addicts" happily follow a wife killer that decapitates infants in their beds, steal babies from their mother's arms and starve thousands of innocents to death in the name of peace. Let the schemers and traitors plunge the realm into darkness... The rightful king is coming for them all...💛
Each time I express I'm team Green (Extremely difficult after the fanfic finale) they start screaming that I like rapists, so I start screaming back that they like murderers, war criminals, groomers, etc 😂
Rhaenyra didn't care about the throne or duty. Aegon didn't either. But when given the task he does try to do the right thing.if he would have been guided or had attended small council meetings like Rhaenyra he would have been an excellent king.
Show would be much better if team green was unified and more competent like in books but ofc, like GoT was pro Daenerys so HotD is pro team black which is bollocks. I hope that they will show that throne cuts Rhaenyra the same way like it cut Viserys meaning that they weren't worthy.
Aegon and Otto are the only ones that I truly liked on Team Green this season. Alicent is too narcissistic & hypocritical and Aemond is simply an unstable and a spiteful lunatic who wants the world burned and has no decency in his behavior and has very questionable loyalties. I was hoping for more scenes with Aegon & Otto it's a shame they don't get along because both of them have epic actors portraying them. Now I'm worried in season 3 because Otto seems to be imprisoned by the Blacks and Aegon is still recovering from his brother's attack. And I don't trust Larys one bit he's way too sneaky and deceitful to an extreme extent. I feel like he's just waiting for his chance of getting and claiming power. He's the leech in Team Green. It doesn't look too good for Aegon. I thought the quality dropped from season 1. Season 1 is almost perfect like a solid 9/10 but this season the choreography is inconsistent along with odd visual effects and some of the episodes are just fillers with nothing happening in it besides family drama & arguments like it's The Bold And The Beautiful 7/10. Hoping for improvements but knowing who's in charge of this show I'm keeping my expectations low. The only new character I liked is Ulf The White I love his swagger and chill laid-back attitude. He's so charismatic & entertaining but has a very limited presence. They gave Hugh Hammer more screentime but he's as dull, lifeless and dry as most of the Team Black members. Almost everyone else who was newly introduced is just as boring. Excellent tribute.
Otto should be in KL not leave somewhere and he should biggest team green not leave Aegon the same Alicent they all left him by himself whne they force him on throne
He definitely not the best character in any ways, but he is my favorite character in the series. Every time I see him being happy, I am happy too. I don’t really know why but I guess I see myself in him. A stupid boy who are not good in anything but want to prove himself and result in failure making him looked even worse, I have done the same thing but just not his scale.
In the books both Aegon and Rhaenyra were awful. The show is generally portraying Rhaenyra as objectively better. But I actually started to like Aegon most of all the characters. Spoiler alert. At this point I actually wish the show ended with his victory. Over Rhaenyra, over Aemond, over Daemon. It would be somewhat poetic. Well, I mean canonically Aegon kind of wins but not really and for a very short period of time.
What I love about Aegon is that he’s smart enough to figure things out on his own, from his advisers to his surroundings.

Aegon was right about Riverrun. He would have killed Daemon's plot immediately. Everything he suggested was unironically their best course.
