I'm late to this conversation, but I've just finished all your reactions! I loved them! Excuse the essay 😂 Unpopular opinion but I loved the ending to the show. It was anti-climactic and felt weird, but, once I got over the fact that most of my feelings were because the show was over, I actually saw the ending as what 'real life' would feel like post-war/disaster/crazy events - anti-climactic, weird and strangely disappointing. And, for me, Bran being king goes along with that - because he's so un-kingly and detached (and knows the past, thus knows not to repeat past mistakes), he's bound to be a good ruler. On a side note, there are complaints that he could have stopped the whole thing, but I'm not sure he ever says he can see the future - just the odd vision of it - rather, that he knows all the memories of people (the past) and what's happening now. So I think his knowledge of being king happened in the 'now-future' after Jon made his decision to kill Dany. I don't think it's nepotism with Sansa. Bran isn't really Bran Stark, as he said when he renounced the title of Lord of Winterfell when he came back from the North. I think the separation of the North was a good thing anyway and I don't think he'd agree if he thought it was a bad idea because he doesn't exactly mince his words. Sansa is the legitimate heir and she fought for the North. She'd already proven herself as a ruler, so it wasn't surprising. In any case, nepotism is still what their world is based on - even if there are some new houses now. Along those lines, my absolute favourite bit of the episode was Sam's suggestion of democracy 😂 I, like you, saw Dany's issues from the beginning (in the books and series), so that didn't surprise me, either, and I didn't think she'd be the best ruler unless she did a 180 and really learned to listen to advice. Her foundations were with her messed up, entitled brother, who abused her and instilled the ideas of their 'divine', entitled right to rule; which the dragons cemented in her head. And her power grew in a very different environment to Westeros, which would be difficult to apply. I also always felt that the dragons and dire wolves came to help with the White Walkers vs. for the petty fights between rulers/to show the one true heir. I also actually expected Jon to land up beyond the wall - he kept saying he didn't want to be king and he loved the North. As soon as he told Tormund to take Ghost there it kind of confirmed it for me. Which I took as another example of how the best rulers aren't necessarily those by blood, nor those who don't want to rule, even if they're good leaders.
