I dont whink Arya had anything that deserved to be called a real "plan", only a desire for vengeance. She was presented with an opportunity (to learn some helpful skills, yes) and took it because she didnt think she had any other options to achieve her goals. Also something to belong to. She is a orphan who believes her family is either dead or can't help her. Also, the opening scene with the mad king yelling "Burn them all" and the undead from the paints a pretty clear picture that it was three eyes trying to warn the king and driving him mad.

Maybe Arya thought it's magic and wanted to learn it but then she realized it's not magic and the faceless men are really just normal assassins who cut peoples faces off? Nick Cage did it, so it must be real, right? Its clearly magic. You can't remove faces like that, it snot really how our facial structure works. | ||

 There'd be so many problems with that. The edges would look bad, it wouldn't move naturally with your.muscles, it would be baggy or tight if your underlying bone structure wasn't the same, and so forth. | ||

actually it'd be cool if some sort of madness was added into a character like arya or sansa or john sometime. (like dementia style madness. its really spooky. like danaeyis friendzone's greyskin but only the viewer really realises something is wrong with them, and even then its not clear | ||

Really hoping for her to just show some of that thorn blood in her, her grandma is a great player of the game. Starting to dislike tommen for his uselessness (if thats a word)...and i thought he would be a decent king after joffery oh well this shits going down the drain. I've also been excited to see the zombie mountain chop down some people (first time im rooting for the guy) but now i get this sick feeling that when he does get to kill someone...its not gonna be what i wished for. (The poster up there that mentioned tommen as a potential for the trail by combat who the high sparrow as conviced that her mother will stop it and admitt gulit seems to line up nicely with GRRM and the prophecy that all of cersis kids will die god damn...with the mountian unable to stop and then boom dead tommen, high sparrow screws over the lanisters and some crazy ass shit war happens. | ||

But finally, Arya plans to get the fuck out of the faceless and there are cools stuff involving Black fish and the septom so it is good and better even if I don't know how it could get worse, maybe seeing Ghost dying of indigestion? :D | ||

Not so sure about that, there were a lot of visions totally unrelated to the 3eyed raven, no?

Not sure how that one scene can ruin it tbh | ||

Obi Wan and Yoda are wrong about Vader in RotJ, and Luke is right, even though they are the old masters. I actually thought it would be cool if the Faceless men thing was true... so she'd do what she did, in the arguing the client or maybe the whole fucking company would drink the bottle, so the target would be the only one left alive. That is, Arya's faith in the God of Death would allow death of some nobodies to satisfy vengeance, and it would get the favor of the gods idea across. As is, we have to think that Arya probably has some divine patron (I personally think the Faceless are wrong and the multiple gods are in fact independent powers). Maybe the Red God?

Cercesi let them as a ploy against the Tyrells. Oops. Cercesi is literally the source of all of her problems. The war of the 5 kings was caused by her incest. Her walk of shame? Sleeping with her cousin. High sparrow? Electing Bernie Sanders. Forced to marry Loras? She killed her husband. Dead father? Well she accused/drove Tyrion to the brink. And let's not forget that it was her bad parenting which created Joeffrey in the first place. | ||
