Many recalled the traumatic fate of some of the beloved characters: Rhaenyra’s son Lucerys dead at the hands of Aemond’s dragon, Vhagar. One user shared a picture with Daemon saying “traumatized in High Valyrian.” While others resort to humor to explain the demise.
In contrast, some fans also expressed their dislike for the finale by mocking the show. For example, one user shared a video clip with the caption, “HBO seeing everyone canceling their subscription after the House of the Dragon finale.”
Another viewer laments his disappointment in watching the finale by comparing it to Game of Throne’s eighth season.
