Arya Stark vs. The Waif | Game of Thrones | HBO Max

No one is the best teacher in the entire GOT universe.

Arya's story arch is the best

Arya is Schrodinger's cat. Arya is 50% dead in that cave.

One of the worst storylines in the whole show

We need a spin-off of this character

I am going home …

Eric Cartman

There’s no way the Faceless Men would’ve let Arya walk out of there alive

BOSS PLAYA

Waaaaaaaaaw
Best scene in got wen he Said: finally a girl is no one
And She Said:
A girl is aya stark of winterfull

When you're cooked on shrooms this video is amazing

Oh, is that how candles work? lol.

How to botch a good plot inception into a guffaw

My question, did faceless men failed to make her no one?

This is the only thing that comes to mind everytime she appears on Andor.

The C*nt is on Andor

Arya💗✌

Waif-o

She is a T1000

The Faceless men was believed to brought the doom to Valyria. Theyre freaking awesome. 😀

It's always nice to put a face to a name.

hbo max série liga da justiça season 5 + young justice😀

What happens to the faceless man in the end? We don’t see him anymore

I love how Waif was defeated off screen. Totally not unsatisfying

Jaqen in the end be like: "Now go, my girl, and rock."

She was jealous from day one. Her 'training' was spiteful from the start. She was there first and then comes this highborn girl, one he took special interest in. Constantly calling Arya lovely girl, and being forgiving when Arya made mistakes. Yeah the waif was green with envy and hated that someone prettier, smarter, and noble born had the nerve to come into her territory. Was so glad when she died, I disliked the character.
Would like to say she was simply following orders but got to argue that point. If she was all about listening to Jacqen she would have done as he told. He said 'make sure she doesn't suffer'. She stabbed Arya in the stomach instead of slicing her throat. She meant for Arya's death to be slow and painful. This alone proved that her actions went beyond the Faceless and emotions ruled her hands. Arya should have carved out her lady parts and placed it in his bed, because she was acting like a jealous lover.

A lot of people in the comments see the waif as a mentor but i always perceived her as another student that was competing with Arya.

the waif pissed me off so much

The Waif had hands!

The whole faceless man thing was the most interesting thing in my opinion. I loved it.

Theory: The Waif had become a mentally unstable and fanatical follower of the Many Faced God. She hated Arya so much because she knew that she was just using the Faceless Men to get the training she needed to kill the people on her list, and would leave the order once she got what she needed. To The Waif, this was an insult to her order and blasphemy, and she wanted Arya dead for it.

In reality, the Many Faced God was far more offended by The Waif's devotion, gatekeeping, and sadism, than by Arya's refusal to give up her true identity. To him, Arya was never a true Faceless Man, because she never stopped being Arya. Since she wasn't part of his cult she could not blaspheme against and him. This is why she was merely punished, instead of killed, when she "stole" Meryn Trant from him. But The Waif WAS at some point truly a "No One," who had fallen away and become a "someone" again, by becoming too obsessed with their religion, by holding a personal grudge against Arya, and by her sadistic enjoyment of suffering. She wasn't "playing" The Waif anymore, she had really become The Waif.

The Faceless aren't butchers; they do have their own set of moral codes. They will kill innocent or undeserving people, but they usually charge steep and often bizarre prices to do so, and sometimes they even refuse contracts. They often attempt to kill their victims quickly and painlessly. They are also very compassionate to the sick and dying, offering a way to end their lives easily and caring for their bodies after they die.

Jaqen H'gar was an ideal worshiper of the Many Faced God: He did not fanatically follow their religion, he didn't gatekeep, he wasn't angry that Arya was attempting to use them, he didn't hold any strong opinions one way or the other, he was kind and compassionate without motive, he respected other people as equals, he took life without pleasure in it. So he was used by the Many Faced God to correct The Waif's path. Jaqen pitted Arya and The Waif against each other, to teach The Waif that obsession, ego, rage, cruelty and fanatical obsession to The Many Faced God was the true blasphemy. Or to kill her in trying.

Is the person who was The Waif truly dead? Maybe. Maybe not. We saw "Jaqen H'gar" drink poison and "survive." Is he the original Jaqen? Or did another Faceless simply take his mask and step into his shoes? Perhaps the Faceless never really die, they just lose their favorite mask and get demoted to new identities. Or maybe the person playing The Waif really was killed, and her mask put on the wall like a retired jersey, and she's now doing time in whatever afterlife the Many Faced God provides for his people...

I wish I saw how Needle plunged through the Waif's eyes. This would have been perfect.

Arya: Ow! C*nt!
The Waif(u): Baka!

A debt is paid.

good thing arya killed the waif. she was evil.

arya is the best.

episode no.

What is the waif's accent? I love it!

She fought a blind girl....but didn't think to fight blind.

I absolutely hated the waif. I wanted to reach through my screen and punch her any time she showed up 😂

Arya = my favourite GOT's character.

Unpopular opinion, but I really enjoyed the Waif as a character? She was like a really unique villainous mentor. I don't know if I've ever seen a character quite like her. I loved how robotic she was in a medieval world, too. I just wish this plot was fleshed out a bit more so that the Waif's character could be even stronger.

I never understood why she hated arya so much it didnt feel like a teacher genuinely trying to teach a new student the ways of their organization it always felt personal like she know her from before

The Faceless Man leader wanted her to believe in herself again in the end (that smile and look to the side), she was a girl from a noble family with nowhere left to go on the run and she was directionless and didn't believe in much anymore after Ned was killed, not exactly in herself anymore either she did... but she didn't... when she even lied to herself... Why do you show yourself such injustice if you truly believed in yourself? especially lying to others and deceiving others and leaving those who were really trying to help you to die...

But one thing she DID always believe in was her family just like her other siblings but she was SO full of rage that she was so so lost and confused plus young and naive that she wanted to believe everyone was her friend (no they aren't and she had to learn that), they knew it was such hard times too that they had to let her work through this and was willing to worth through it with her i think they knew what was coming too that they wanted to ready her for what she needed to do.

The whole thing was also to see if she truly wanted to be one of them but of course they knew she didn't... there was too much pain and history there with her Stark family to ever turn her back on it and they needed to be all they can be for each other, nevertheless they trained her enough to be able to protect herself and her family (mainly herself lol), totally cold they sacrificed "The Waif" though but i don't think the leader truly liked her lol.

The hero of winterfell ! What an incredibly satisfying story arc

Arya’s whole journey here blew me away. Stakes just kept getting higher n higher. Entertaining af. 🤲🏼🤣🌹🤲🏼
