I personally think Daenerys & Cersei are two sides of the same person, I see more similarities than differences now that Daenerys' Mad Queen 'arc' has been completed.
I would say it is a fair assessment. Personally I don't have a problem with the story arc of either character. My problem is the thin story due to rushed writing as well as inconsistent stories and plot holes.
@AFeudalLord true sometimes we can see some hints of them being a little similar.
@Dave Chaves thank you. Yes they rushed it. There should have been more episodes where gradually she turns out that way.
They do become foils in the last season on TV; but I always thought of Cersei as an evil character, because her court-intrigues started the war. Danaerys, on the other hand, only becomes evil, at the very end (foreshadow or no foreshadow).
Well she is evil there's no doubt about it and is a very good one on the show compared to others.
Well I don't totally agree with you about the foreshadowing about Danny because in some scenes she always informs about getting what she wants and will get it with Fire and Blood. So we cannot totally deny about the hints in the show.
i know neither of them know how to use a blade but a one on one sword fight would have been cool,
idk who do you guys think would win Dany vs cersei 1v1
@Blazing Sky yeah that would be amazing. Everyone would love to find out who wins. I have a feeling if that had happened maybe it would have been Cersei to win.
