Has it already been five seasons? We would say yes, but our favorite characters haven’t stayed long enough for us to get attached (see Washington Post’s illustrated guide to the 456 deaths in “Game of Thrones” (GoT)—that’s about an average of 91 deaths per season; although based on the breakdown, Season 4 had the most deaths at a whopping 182).

 

We polled Inquirer staff who are die-hard GoT fans to share what their most anticipated moments are in Season 5.

 

Bigger dragons! And of course, ang harutan ni Khaleesi and Daario Naharis. Sayang patay na si Renly Baratheon (’di maka-move on).

—Jovic Yee

 

OMG. Ang dami. Tyrion’s adventures, for one.

—Annelle Tayao

 

ARYA STARK

The fall of Cersei. The resurrection of Ygritte. The birth of the fourth dragon!

—Anne A. Jambora

 

The awesomeness of the Sand Snake sisters. But I mourn the absence of Bran.
