It's only believable based on that "half are left line"...it completely contradicts what happened in the battle of Winterfell. There should be like 5 left including Grey Worm.

You are making really weird assumptions, do you feel attacked? And I don't know what you mean by "these people". It's one person writing a Twitter thread, are there two tribes in your mind fighting about this or something? With all the same opinions and beliefs, two camps those who disliked the episode and are right and those who liked it and are wrong. I don't know if he is reading Era and got the idea for writing that thread because of the criticism here, but I highly doubt it. He probably wrote it on the basis what he himself has observed, I don't know where but I assume social media plays a big part. What he sees in his feeds isn't necessarily same that you see.

Dude has access to the entire history of the world and he's the most useless person in the show
I wish the NK offed him so there would be at least one major consequence from that
You're right, I had forgotten.
I guess the next question is, due bodies rot faster or slower when fast travel around Westeros occurs.
She had like 10 k Unsullied when she got them.
Somehow she still has thousands left (with no replenishing their ranks) after fighting through Astapor, Yunkai, Meereen, the Sons of the Harpy, going through the Lannister armies, fighting the Army of the Dead and then fighting on the streets of King's Landing.
Is every individual Unsullied member like Sekiro? Do they also have the Dragon's Blood and Daenerys is the Divine Heir?

High Sparrow, Septa Unella, Ellaria. Now THAT'S hating on Cersei's book. Not just sending an assassin especially when you had the chance to do it yourself :p
Idk how I missed/forgot that. But it's weird that that apparently is a valid plan, to just go back to the Iron Islands alone without much leverage after the people already claimed fealty to Euron as the Lord.
Don't talk about the protagonist like that. For shame.
Yep
It's also especially funny that basically all the unsullied and dothraki and valemen and northerners died but sam, jaime and all other important people (who werent even important to the finale) survived.
By these people I mean people reposting him here in a counter effort to criticism.
Me too. I want a total deus ex machina that renders everything this season irrelevant. Winter storm bows in, Bran rolls up with a new army of the dead.
That picture just makes the writer's whole justification that she's concerned about people wanting to put Jon on the throne that much more ridiculous. So what? She still has a huge army and a god damn dragon. Good luck putting him on the throne. They are writing these characters like they are all idiots. Everyone of these characters is now a complete and utter buffoon.
This is why this season is hard to accept. The characters are just acting out of norm, they're also not behaving like you would expect people to behave.

I still think it's hilarious how Bran was like "I know everything that has happened and will happen", gives a history lesson to Sam, who is like..... actually, that's wrong. Bran is like.. oh.. really? You sure?
Lol
We did literally see the Lannister lion that sits above the throne get toasted. I'm assuming we'll get it in (nearly) this exact state:
I don't know about you but I'm not afraid of giant dragons the size of 747s unless they have at least 50k kills.
Actually, I was thinking there was a lot of fresh corpses in KL to mass rez into a formidable army.
But no, I don't see that happening.
I don't remember that, was that about jon/aegon or another scene? Bc i thought they both came to the same conclusion for that
Definitely not. Would have been great, but they've got no tricks up their sleeves at this point.
We don't really know how much was actually destroyed of the red keep
For those talking about how much of an army she has left, if you go through the painstaking process of counting these rows, there are about 60 in each row. If each row is about as long, and maybe goes past the camera and what we see a bit.... I count 32 rows total? But we can pretend there are a few more than we see, even though we see ruins to left and right blocking more from lining up. This is 3000 left at tops, if we're generous. That seems a lot less crazy since she started with 10,000.

Holy fuck! King's Landing is actually completely gone. It's literally just ruins now.
It didn't seem like that much damage was done last episode but I guess the fire spread tremendously.
Daenerys gonna rule from Dragonstone then or as Queen of the Ashes?
The way I see it, the justification works, as long as her actions follow it. And the realest action here would have been for her to try and execute Jon to strengthen her claim.
Woulda been a hell of a storyline. How would Tyrion, Varys, Davos, Grey Worm, etc. react?
It was during Jon's reveal (end of S7), Bran was like.. he's a Sand, and Sam is like no, I read X and Bran is like..... oh, you sure?
I mean it's not a huge deal and I still like that scene a lot I just think it's kinda funny in context
I do like how her army keeps respawning if not outright increasing in apparent size. Good spectacle.
The impression I get is that he has access to all history, but he must seek it out. If he doesn't know when/where to look, he doesn't know.
Yeah, once he knew, he immediately accessed the memory of the secret marriage.
Wait
How would Bran think he's a sand when he saw the birthing of Jon from Lyanna
What
There weren't 3000 of anything alive fighting by the end of that episode lol. Probably not even 30 let alone 3000. Were they having a coffee break in the back or something? This could have been made to work with just a line about how half the forces were kept in reserve at the neck in case Winterfell was overrun. But nope.
That's right, he's immediately like "for real?" and then you see him creepily watching from behind a tree. God damn Bran is weird.
Can someone remind me about book version Bran's capabilities? Because I quite frankly dislike creatures and people with essentially godlike powers in a setting like that. While I've read the books I've kinda forgotten what exactly happened to Bran so far, though I guess he didn't develop/get powers like show Bran yet or I would have remembered.

This looks pretty cool and it's a damn shame GOT had such an interesting culmination and it lacked the ability to set it up properly and play with it's consequences. Dany's turn is, by far, the most interesting aspect of this show in the last few years and we will go straight to resolve it right away in the next ep.
Well, the real stupidity is after the episode with the white walker attack, because there should be have 20 people left. But there are people here acting like she has a million troops left, abut her overall army is still pretty small.
She got 8k in Astapor, and there were multiple battles leading up to Winterfell which the entire army appears to have been wiped out.

Cool looking image, but dumb as hell... Why would she even go into the burnt city and have her armies line up like that while it's raining ash all about?
Huh ok
So then he isnt as important as he proposed in episode 1 and 2 of this season and he's just tryna protect his ass from getting iced
Boooo
Where the fuck did all those Unsullied come from?

Are bastard based on where they're born or to whom they are born? Because Jon Snow wasn't born in the North right (Ned's Official story)? So then Bran shouldn't be calling Jon by the Sand surname.
I really hope this season ends with (speculation)
no one on the iron throne, and the seven kingdoms no longer being united.[/spoiler
I think it's more where the parents themselves are from. Ned called him snow because his mother was from the North...is my guess.
The concept is fine, but moving forward with it is a bad idea if you know you can't properly execute it in a believable way. No idea what that guy is trying to say.
No, if I remember correctly, Bran and Sam needed their pieces together to reveal the full truth, so Bran is.. still useful here even if generally useless
