YourMomsBox Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 This was really the only part of the episode that I enjoyed. But it was great. Haha Trant had it coming and Arya is such a badass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarl the climber Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 The whole pedoTrant thing was a little too much. She didn't need him to be a sadistic pedo for her to have a reason to kill him. I also think that he lasted a little bit too long. Other than than that it was OK but it did make Arya seem a little psycho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BitsOfBrains Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 I thought the whole Arya/Trant thing reached b movie cartoonish levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P. frontalis chiripepe Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 It would have been more meaningful without the pedophile angle. Much more powerful death if it had been one of Trant's men who tried to rape the girls, and Trant beat him to a pulp and freed the underage girls. Showing us he had a decent side. Then a few seconds later he dies that same horrible death, eyeless. That would have made Arya's character deeper and more controversial. The way they played it out, it was just the obvious thing to do. Big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good Guy Garlan Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 The PedoTrant bullshit set-up was too much, but I gotta admit I kinda liked Arya doing the Orochimaru face-peeling thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gertrude Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Meh, I wasn't a fan of her uber-feral methods and I could have used a lot less of the sadistic side of Trant. I liked her cool and cold as she talked to him, but not the feral beast side of her. Maybe I'm interpreting her character wrong or something, but it seemed off and over the top.

Winter's Cold Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Arya likes to think of herself as a wolf in the books. She knows that she doesn't stand a chance in a true fight so she attacks the weak points quickly and brutally like a wolf would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howling Mad Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 The preview chapter dealt with the killing in a much better way. However, the most disappointing part of her story arc is how much she fails at being a FM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sciteacher Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 I'm fine with the Arya scene. Trant had to be shown as a bad guy in some meaningful way, making him a pedophile was a good choice. Otherwise, Arya is darker--the things he did to put him on her list could be excused by saying "Oh, he was just doing his duty. His King ordered him to do those things" Making him a pedophile makes it easier for people to say "Well, he should have ignored the bad orders of his psychotic King and told Joff's Mommy--and anyway, he liked to hurt little girls" I suppose Arya was too wild. Do you think it was because Trant had been on her list for so long and because he killed Syrio? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Ghost of Someone Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 The Arya stuff is good and I love how she killed Trant and made it known to him before he died, who he was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baron Bazunor the Twisted Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Best part of the episode to me. Brutal as fuck! Loved it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MercyTheBlindUglyLittleCat Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 The Arya scenes in this episode were amazing, and totally surprised me with the way they were done. I think it was a great choice to not setup Arya getting the face, and just jumping right into her murdering Trant. And the execution, so awesome (though it was proceeded by more excessive GoT cruelty). I really loved how it ended with the Blind Little Girl cliffhanger from Feast, totally unexpected!! All this leads me to believe that the Mercy chapter (and the story in between in Braavos) has yet to be fully adapted by the show, and will be in Season 6. There was casting rumors of "head of acting company" or something along those lines, plus Arya didn't use Needle on Trant, and Mercy's story looked to continue beyond the preview chapter in The Winds of Winter.

I also think that he lasted a little bit too long. Other than than that it was OK but it did make Arya seem a little psycho. But Arya is a psycho. Not even a little one, she's a full blown psycho It would have been more meaningful without the pedophile angle.

jbob Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 The guy beat Sansa without a care in the world. Wouldn't make sense at all he'd have a decent bone in his body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
