Aegon II Targaryen is the new King of Westeros, and here’s what the fans think about his coronation

Every episode of Game of Thrones prequel House of The Dragon ramps up the tension and intensity, with the Targaryen family steadily straining apart. The Greens are gearing up to take control of King’s Landing, while Rhaenyra is holed up at Dragonstone currently oblivious to the situation. Amidst the ensuing drama, Alicent’s eldest son Aegon II is stuck like a square peg in a round hole, and forced to sit on the Iron Throne.
Here’s what the fans think about the new King of the Andals, the Second of his name:
Did anyone notice how they focused on Alicent in this scene? Yes it’s Aegon’s coronation, but the true power behind the throne is Alicent Hightower. Aegon II is just the face. She plots behind the curtain. #HOTD #HouseOfTheDragon #DemDragons pic.twitter.com/R8Ga6vURiC

Besides Rhaenys and Meleys fucking shit up, the only other thing I wanted to see at Aegon II's bullshit coronation was them putting a crown on Helaena's head. Such a waste, she looked so beautiful ????. #HouseOfTheDragon pic.twitter.com/CH8Jvvjz7r

I feel like the people of Kings Landing are at this coronation of Aegon II like “hell yeah! Whatever is happening! Sure!” And they’ll go back home like “who gives a shit” #HouseOfTheDragon #DemThrones

Tom Glynn – Carney as Aegon II will be recognized in time…. portraying someone who never wished to become king / yet divulging in the love he never had from his father during his coronation. Excellent work.
