I feel like Dany says she's the last Targeryn excessively. It reminds me of when people brag about being descendants of the founding fathers. Most of the founding fathers were trash so who cares? Is being the last Targeryn that great? On one hand, I think cool you're around and have a claim to the throne. But, if you are the last when youu going to make more? And how come no other Targeryns could cut it? And the last Targeryn ruler was nuts, so should you be bragging about this? So many questions.

I voted yes even though the kickass women are one of the reasons I love the show. I actually never really had much of a problem with Dany and I still don't. I think the word arrogance implies over confidence and I don't think she is in general. But that scene where she's demanding that Jon bend the knee when she has given him no reason to other than the fact that she's "The Last Targeryn" just didn't seem like how she' s been written in previous episodes. She always seems to have been the anti-Cersie, reasonable and more diplomatic. She actually listens to her advisors and seems to value her people. But she needs allies like Jon just as badly as he needs her. After she got word on that first defeat, I believe she realized that.

I voted "not arrogant enough" even though I don't watch Thrones, because I feel that all women need to be more arrogant.
