It’s just so odd. It’s very easy to make Rhaenyra cruel and jaded after losing 2 more sons. You don’t need to make her crazy, she can just be angry that her throne was taken and her children have died as a result. You can even have her fight more harshly in her son’s names.
Only like 4 kings were truly mad, all male, and experienced either trauma or were resurrected corpses. TARGARYEN MADNESS IS NOT A THING. ITS NOT INNATE. The writers trying to say that dragons drive them mad. Oh my god I hate this
rhaenyra’s usurpation had NOTHING to do with her children being “bastards” that was just an excuse the greens used, rhaenyra was usurped simply for being a woman and i’m getting fucking tired of people still debating this
The hate that you are getting (KATSEYE only, idk what the other 2 groups have going on) is bc a still listed member stated she was being racially mistreated and the company nor the girls (ik they can’t) have said anything. So no it’s not iconic by any means it’s just tone deaf, corny, and stupid. 0/10.
