Honestly I haven't seen the show but just from watching your videos it seems as if somebody had a dream about how. how to train your dragon in like what hiccups kids generations would be and look like but didn't know how to do it smoothly enough so they did like 1.300 years later and then they followed dream logic basically honestly I would like to see the generations like go on and stuff with like hiccup in his kids and their kids and same with the dragons and stuff and like everybody else has been saying this was just very poorly executed it's like DreamWorks just decided to say fuck it. It's Gen z. Let it be shite I'm 17 and this is pretty bad. Honestly, I'm afraid of what they're going to do to the cartoons we grew up on they're going to be so bad for a while honestly, I don't even think they're trying and if they are trying humanity really has gotten worse. The work ethic is lacking people are getting lazier and mental illness is getting worse but mainly just being lazier and making excuses
@@shaddowofthelost1750 It should! It’s stupid that Dreamworks isn’t even listening to their own fans. I feel Httyd is slowly becoming Shrek all over again.
Shocked over the Nightmare's horns. It seems someone went into the model trying to mess with it, only to delete some geometry from the model. That's such a rookie mistake.
Like... how does that even happen??? It's not like they would be separate parts of a model, there isn't even a joint there. I've only dabbled in SFM, so I'm no expert but.. how???
Well… hmmm. One thing that could explain it is that the texture could’ve not rendered in. The other thing that could explain it is that the model’s horns aren’t actually part of the model but are paired to the bones of the model. In the first case what would’ve happened is that several frames were rendered with the horns not selected or perhaps the shade was missing in the file at time of render making them invisible. If the second thing happened the horns could’ve gotten unpaired to the bones of the dragon and are in the scene somewhere where you can’t see them. Both things have happened to me but I just dabbled with 3D animation. The thing I can’t explain is when you watch back your own work typically you notice immediately what happened. So that is odd.
Is it just me, or does The Nine Realms feel like a video game? From the animation itself to the "boss battle" at the end of each season? EDIT: Stop telling me in the replies that there is a game for T9R called Legends of the Nine Realms. I am perfectly aware and I have played it. My statement has nothing to do with it.
Its revealed that Alex is the one who made the dragon saddles and there was a line about it but was cut from the show. Also thank you for pointing out that they could have use thunder for the magma breather situation when I saw audrys video I was like you have thunder who has lighting so they could use him, I thought it was stupid at first but with you saying that, THANK YOU SO MUCH RAISORBLADE I LOVE YA.
The armor could've even been explained with a modified 3d printer, maybe even have a sewing attachment! People are using 3d printed plastic rockets! Surely one could be modified to work with a sewing machine or something!
@@GrimReaperNegi We do have 3D printed scale materials that are semi flexible so they can be sewed/linked together too. Could've found a dragon to make a usable filament. Kinda like how the originals found new dragon based recouces and plants. (Gronkle Iron ect).

@@lorenbrown7100 That is true. Many shows now literally just attempt to grab a bunch of money, and do a very crappy job at something that they should actually do their best on, this is HTTYD after all, such a beloved franchise now being tainted by this garbage series ;-;
I still do not understand why they didn't just use Hiccup and Astrids kids as the characters to a new series. Maybe have it so that the boy is like his dad and thinks dragons are great, but the daughter wants to go back to the old days of hunting them. You could even even throw in a few kids from Fishlegs x Ruffnut (or Ruff x Snot since they were apparently both into her in the 2nd movie) could even have Tuffnut have kids with someone. Then they go on their own adventures, or something. Anything is better than...whatever this show is.
I'd honestly argue they should've just made another race to the edge, but in-between movies 2 and 3, explaining the warlords and the big new village or something
It does show that the Dragons franchise was MEANT to stop after the hidden world and the homecoming special with the snogeltog log. Oh well, I do like a few aspects of Nine Realms but THAT IS IT. Good job as usual Raisor.
Seriously the concept of httyd in the modern world would be so freaking cool, I love it, I love the concept, I want it, AND THEN THEY RUINED EVERYTHING. I’m waiting for an Ao3 author to snap and rewrite the all of the 9 realms into something really good. I’d read the shit out of that.
They literally spat on the grave of the most masterfully crafted and well written movie trilogy in animation history, and *then* they went “Yeah, two more of those please”
The sky torture looks cool to me, even the way it breaths out fire. But yeah it's never gonna hit anything with that butterfly shape shot even if it's unique and original. It should have started out with the butterfly shape then slowly merge into one single shot.
Or it could do like a tornado type deal, where it splits into the Butterfly formation before spinning real fast like. Kind of like the Typhoonarangs with their tornado fire blast.
@@fairytypepokemonqueen4605 honestly that would be really dope. I was thinking that when it splits apart it starts to spin real fast before merging into one GIANT blast of fire that covers a huge range of areas. This would make the dragon more menacing to other around and give reason on why it takes over areas so easily, besides be a giant dragon. The blast is bigger and covers more area that no where around it it safe (unless its behind the dragon itself, but it could do a 360 spinaroo to cover blind spots). And the only way to evade or get close to conquering it would be to have a dragon that has fire resistant type armor ( I was thinking like the predators of Heatblast from Ben 10 Omnitrix as an example, but maybe something else?) Or try to wait out the dragon's fire shot limit
You know, I started thinking about making a fanfiction where Alex and Feathers are the main leads instead of Tom and Thunder. I planning on redesign Alex, well not really "redesign", but tweak it a little and making Feathers look more like a Night Fury. I want to make Tom the "Astrid" of the group, extroverted, adventurous, and love the outdoors, and is the main love interest to Alex. I kept the other characters the same but made June and Gene twins rather than normal siblings. I also plan on making "Buzzsaw" more in line of Vigo from Race To The Edge than Dagur, but I haven't figured out how to do that yet. And he's the son of the man that runs the facility of which Project Icarus is based on. This is just a small fanfiction I'm working on, though. Edit: Sorry, it's taking so long, I literally don't know how I want my story to start so I'm kinda having a hard time working on it.
I feel in the Htyyd world, magic must exist.Here's my reasonings: -The dragon types frequently violate all laws of nature and their abilities are often very fantastical, such as the Vermillions being able to mimic every kind of dragon fire perfectly, even a nightfury before Toothless even fired(coincidentally this means that individual saw another before this, and Valka mentioned how she'd never seen one up close before, not that she hadn't seen one before, proving that there must be some still left, but very rare), the shot limit which seems wrong since if it was merely a scientific ability they would be able to do so indefinitely, the bewilderbeast mind controlling dragons and breathing ice. -The archipelago being located very far north, it's implied it's between Greenland and Norway, yet it's so much warmer then it should be.We see in race to the edge many lush islands and in the earlier tv series plus the films many other islands like this, which are all covered in trees, and many are decidous trees which don't grow in very cold areas, hence why Taiga in Siberia is only composed of pine and fir trees. -The many times we see places like Vanaheim, a resting place for dragons with essentially immortal living stone dragon statues, a kind of night terror that takes care of eruptadons, the diseases and other things that normal world wouldn't have. -The hidden world, which seems very unnatural. -The dragons having many cases of human level at the least intelligence, including dragons pretending to be hurt to lure in people, toothless figuring out how to draw and actually often understanding human speech, dragons figuring out how cages work, etc. -The prophecy of the king of dragons, which the dragon eye has and as Vigo mentions many times has been in the tribe for centuries, and it comes exactly true. It's why I like the idea GOT and Httyd exist in the same world, their just on opposite sides of the world and the sea is a massive obstacle.
Seeing clips from the actual HTTYD franchise and RTTE is like eye candy after seeing a bunch of clips from the nine realms. It's like a big wave of nostalgia
I'd have preferred the decedents of the haddock clan survive and be apart of the team, working to keep the dragons hidden. Plot happens and one of the kids find out
Didn't Tom say in the very first episode that he and his mom we're of Viking descent? To me that was a pretty huge hint that he was probably related to Hiccup. Trying to make it a twist, rather than confirmation is a bit insult to the audience
32:40 that’s a theme that should never be taken as the right way to handle this dilemma. Ever. It completely goes against what the first 2 movies were trying to build up, that despite the humans’ and dragons’ vast differences and troubled past with each other, times could change and they could work together to coexist peacefully, that’s exactly what Hiccup was trying to show. And they just *threw that all away* in Hidden world, in a terrible, terrible way.
When I was younger I loved how to train your dragon. Looking at this I can’t believe that this isn’t a knock off. When I first heard of it I really thought this was from another company.
I agree with you, How to Train Your Dragon is not a product. My dad is a lawyer and after the Hidden World came out, he used Hiccup and Toothless' relationship as an example in one of the court hearings he attended. Furthering his explanations by talking about the hard decision to keep the dragons safe by having them live apart and applying it to the current issue brought up by the judge.
With how much the show seems to prioritize on Alex it almost feels like she was meant to be the main character of it. Everything about her arc has been pretty consistent to the point that if you made the first episode about her meeting Feathers you could take every other episode in season one and minorly tweak them such that it would be consistent. Feathers even plays a critical role in the fight with the fault ripper being that she has a sonic screech, which happens to be the fault ripper's weakness. She objectively has the most character growth in the show so far having once been afraid to even go outside to being ok with putting herself in MORTAL DANGER to protect others. Tom doesn't even feel like a main character. Thunder and Hiccup 2's goals are constantly sidelined for the sake of filler, he just randomly decides to make a sword because swords are cool or something, he nearly dies in the fault ripper fight because DreamWorks wants to parallel him with hiccup, he befriends Thunder in what can only be described as the most ridiculous way possible. He defeats the Skrill by getting electrocuted. He survives jumping on the Nightmare because Kerosene works differently in the HTTYD:NR universe, apparently. He beats the colonizer by making all the other dragons worship thunder and then they go blast its face, literally what happens in HTTYD 2. He finds the artifacts because he's a descendant of Hiccup and because the show needs him to find it. I mean seriously, let's just talk about this. Alex befriends Feathers because they both like to be invisible (literally and metaphorically), Purple Eyed Girl (forgot her name because she's boring) befriends Wu and Wei because... she's Chinese??? Why does she befriend that dragon besides stereotypes again? (Edit, looked at the wiki to see what actually happened to make her befriend two dragons at once, basically she just did.) D'Angelo befriends Plowhorn by using his medical knowledge to help her. James Charles befriends the bigger spider dragon because honestly I forgot but I think it has to do something with his sister hating spiders and maybe the spider dragon helped them out of trouble or something. And Tom befriends Thunder by moving a boulder off of his tail even though Thunder could've just exploded the rocks off of himself, trying to feed him a chicken nugget, and then touching his face because DreamWorks wants him to be Hiccup 2.0. Of all the dragon friendships that are formed, the two people whose connections to their dragons make the least sense are Hiccup 2 and Purple Eyed Girl, and those are the two characters the show is mainly shipping. Of all the dragon friendships that are formed, Alex's and D'angelo's are the most believable. Its like there's two different people writing the show and one wants to copy HTTYD and the other wants to actually make something that is new and special. The show wants SO BAD for Hiccup 2 to be the main character and it goes about ensuring this by shoving it down your throat that he's the main character while he is constantly overshadowed by Alex who is actually a believable character and can't be summed up to something like "Purple Eyed Girl" or "Hiccup 2" or "Not Daggur". Why did I write an easy in the comments section? Screw this show.
That is so true Alex should have been the main character her being the main character would be the most be believable yet it's like it's ran by two people one does want to make it like something good and the other just wants a copy like how you said. They should try instead of trying to be like how to train your dragon they should look at it as an example

Im putting this series completely separate to how to train your dragon. How to train your dragon has completely finished and this series is a different art style to how to train your dragon. This is just dreamworks exploring what else they can do with dragons and how much more money they can make
3:31 And maybe they've should've team up with the creators of Pilot Dragon: Hisone and Masotan where they actually able keep dragon's existence a secret without making it cringey and more interesting.
Dagur: "Its beneath me" Hiccup: "Not yet. Prove to me you can even got on it" Dagur: oh, okay. Easy! Dagur* sent flying off of a cliff* Dagur: "Yep! You've made your point, Hiccup. We'll do it your way"
It's a shame, because the concept of continuing the story after the hidden world, and showing what would happen when later generations found dragons, to see if they were ready for them. Lots of potential for creative stories and great characters. Unfortunately the creators just didn't care and we got this
Like one thing I would like to the show (probably never going to happen with this writing). Is that BuzzSaw and the white dragon actually team up in a certain way. Maybe buzz in the next season actually grows to hate the group and with the white dragon who also hates them they grow mutual friendship to get rid of the enemies. But sigh that’s just a slight thing that the series would never dare to do.
We dont need modern kids riding dragons that dont even look like dragons.. You know what we need... WE NEED HICCUPS KIDS RIDING DRAGONS!!! COME ON DREAMWORKS
Your videos always make me laugh!! Thanks for making these because the seriously makes my day. You do a really good job at pointing out the mistakes and idiocies of the seasons. Keep up the good work!!!! Also, congrats on having you to being your full-time job now! I hope you keep doing well in the future.😊
16:40 the design for this one looks cool too, nightmare fuel, and yet, so chill, I just wish they knew how to write a good story, heck, write in general.
I mean I could probably think of a better concept modern setting for a HTTYD series. I mean you could do something along the lines of ‘a bunch of planes and ships go missing somewhere in the Baltic or North Sea so the Danish or Swedish or Norwegian Navy is sent to investigate. They are attacked by Dragons in the middle of the night and the survivors find themselves on the hidden world island and now have the not just survive this crazy new biome but find a way to escape as well.’
The thing that makes dragons an amazing franchise is how they expand upon the lore and the development of the world itself like how many lands the secret dragons the different Tales at the Vikings told that led up to the meeting new dragons and a new lands that is much different from Burke and made it all interesting because it's something new and something that expands upon the world itself. But why the show not works is because we're so tightly sealed in this one area that they're in they don't have a chance to explore or do anything interesting being in the same area over and over again it's kind of bland but that's what makes the dragons TV show so good because they go outside of Burke and explore and learn new things
I both agree and disagree. Back in the time of HTTYD (Not Nine Realms era) is when I feel like was much better and more unique in a way, but it was because this was telling the story of a boy and a dragon's bond changed the fates of many (Hiccup and Toothless), and like you said, they expanded upon the lore and the overall development of the world, and how people are interacting with dragons. Nine Realms on the other hand tries to be a deliberate copy of HTTYD and with its garbage writing/storytelling, it doesn't really help matters.
It’s like I’m the spy’s head from team fortress 2, “meet the medic” when dreamworks opens the fridge, I say “kill me” because this is miserable, and dreamworks says “later, just need to add some oil to the bonfir-“ explosion
Wait what, aren't fire worms really hot, like set anything they touch on fire hot? That is one flame retardant bag... and people in general. Why did they need to make the Dragon suits again?
The fault ripper and tom shit has broken my Brain right now That's like If Alan,ellie and the kids Felt bad about the Man-eating raptors after they get killed the t.rex in jp 1 I think these writers doesn't Care about Common Sense
First of all, great intro by the way that was beautiful, and second, I agree with you on the name Fire Jackals that is actually pretty fitting way better then Flamethrowers. Also i noticed the animation errors too especially where the monster nightmare's horns go missing the was pretty embarrassing.
I have thankfully forgot about this season after rewatching race to the edge again so thanks for shitting on this show so I don’t have to lose my voice yelling at the tv about it
I feel that the Sky tortures fire could be really cool if he would move his head from left to right, so it would create a fire tunnel kinda like a tryfomarang
the difference between the two HTTYD shows is enourmous like on the race for the edge it has PLOT and the characters GROW as people,on the nine realms the plot is very far from the universe(since it "ended" in hidden world) and the character are just a blank(besides th best girl in the show)
Okay but why does that one scene when tom used a mosterous nightmare to test for his fiver prroff armor that ISNT EVEN COVERING HIS WHOLE BODY looks like fanghook 💀
The funny thing is "The 9 Realms" is literally a reference to Norse mythology. The series is set in the modern day and they decided to name it after a Viking myth.
6:11 is the end of the ad part but to give this dud some support on hell hole known to be how to training your dragons the nine realms please which the ad
So if thunder is a descendant of toothless and thunder literally has the same resemblance to toothless and lightfury, Doesnt that mean that the whole nightfury and lightfury lineage was a huge pile of incest?
There were other light furrys around, but given Thunder does have so much night furry coloring, you might not be to far off. I know there are ways to bring back breads from mating partial breads, but that is usually methodical
Yes the skytorcher looks kinda neat...can we talk about it's weird talon/claw/hand things though why she shaped like that Also why prince(james) charles the 5th and not dagger so sus in the woods!
I'm pretty sure I know why that black "brother" turned white for a scene. I can almost guarantee you he was white, but them SOMEONE either in management or some kind of diversity enforcement thing told them "You need more people of color" so they just picked a random character or two and race swapped them. But they fucked up and forget that one scene or didn't realize the mistake because of the lighting. The reason I think it's this and not the other way around is there is no reason to do the reverse under any circumstance. Like they already would have had the model so why change the skin tone in that one scene? It's more likely that's the one scene that wasn't altered rather than the other way around. Because whilte it's certainly possible for them to be siblings it's rather unlikely unless they are adopted. Not impossible especially since a show can do whatever it wants and ignore genetic probability. But it still feels like something that was very likely changed in post edit in an effort to check that diversity box a bit harder. And it's not like making the one brother black is a bad thing either ... but the fact they couldn't even be bothered to check hard enough to find that mistake just shows how overall low effort this production is.
11:20 … “how the fuck did that fit in the bag. on race to the edge hiccup pulls out 2 fucking spare legs and tails from his small fucking satchel. so i’m not surprised
@@qwertyuiopasdfghjklzxcvbnm6356 i expected someone to say that. also my fuckin imaginative mind while asleep thought of entering a clock with idk in it and it was like a portal in time for fuckin dragons. then i thought of the fuckin SCP foundation and i woke up and tried to remember it because it was interesting and entertaining. i could imagine the images clearly enough “grandfathers clock” basically a tall clock like big ben but can feature glass with counterweights and a pendulum that sways side to side. i got one and it has a broke counterweight that constantly needs reset
For the last episode at the end have the Faltripper come and help them fight the Skytorcher out of nowhere after they assumed it was dead that would be 100% better
32:04 Including Heather’s adoptive parents! (Although it’s unclear if he killed them personally or one of his armada did but their blood was still on his hands.
Dreams works don't care about consistency. They believed they are just making it for kids. To them, kids can't comprehend deeper meaning. They just want to get as much money as they can out of it.
i remember in the early show random ass dragons started appearing for no reason until finally they found out about the screaming death and that was just handled so much better then all of the dragons from this show
I hate when people talk shit about a youtuber when they finally get a sponsor or ads dude shut up if you want this youtuber to upload daily they’ll need to be able to support themselves financially somehow
I saw a comment asking someone to rewrite the series. Like character designs, dragons, conflict, etc. I might try to once the series is over so be on the look out 👀
IF they are going to make a show to continue this beloved trilogy, I sincerely believe a cute little show about the adventures of the night lights and maybe even with hiccups children is the way to go.
Today I watched this video again and I realized something... The broncol that vomits blue makes the gem or crystal it eats disappear and it makes me laugh because it dosen't look real.

I was thinking that when it splits apart it starts to spin real fast before merging into one GIANT blast of fire that covers a huge range of areas. This would make the dragon more menacing to other around and give reason on why it takes over areas so easily, besides be a giant dragon.
The blast is bigger and covers more area that no where around it it safe (unless its behind the dragon itself, but it could do a 360 spinaroo to cover blind spots). And the only way to evade or get close to conquering it would be to have a dragon that has fire resistant type armor ( I was thinking like the predators of Heatblast from Ben 10 Omnitrix as an example, but maybe something else?) Or try to wait out the dragon's fire shot limit
The show fires on….and on….like a raging dragon fart.

You know, I started thinking about making a fanfiction where Alex and Feathers are the main leads instead of Tom and Thunder. I planning on redesign Alex, well not really "redesign", but tweak it a little and making Feathers look more like a Night Fury. I want to make Tom the "Astrid" of the group, extroverted, adventurous, and love the outdoors, and is the main love interest to Alex. I kept the other characters the same but made June and Gene twins rather than normal siblings.
I also plan on making "Buzzsaw" more in line of Vigo from Race To The Edge than Dagur, but I haven't figured out how to do that yet. And he's the son of the man that runs the facility of which Project Icarus is based on. This is just a small fanfiction I'm working on, though.
Edit: Sorry, it's taking so long, I literally don't know how I want my story to start so I'm kinda having a hard time working on it.
ooooo! i like this!
Ooo, I want the link when you post first chapter
@@RansTheGuy Alright, but I can't guarantee it's gonna be good though.
@@madrat8060 Any re-written version of nine realms is much better than the original, so you don't have to worry about this
this is a pretty cool idea! if you end up writing give us a lick or or something
Alex deserves better.
#Alexsupremercy
I feel in the Htyyd world, magic must exist.Here's my reasonings:
-The dragon types frequently violate all laws of nature and their abilities are often very fantastical, such as the Vermillions being able to mimic every kind of dragon fire perfectly, even a nightfury before Toothless even fired(coincidentally this means that individual saw another before this, and Valka mentioned how she'd never seen one up close before, not that she hadn't seen one before, proving that there must be some still left, but very rare), the shot limit which seems wrong since if it was merely a scientific ability they would be able to do so indefinitely, the bewilderbeast mind controlling dragons and breathing ice.
-The archipelago being located very far north, it's implied it's between Greenland and Norway, yet it's so much warmer then it should be.We see in race to the edge many lush islands and in the earlier tv series plus the films many other islands like this, which are all covered in trees, and many are decidous trees which don't grow in very cold areas, hence why Taiga in Siberia is only composed of pine and fir trees.
-The many times we see places like Vanaheim, a resting place for dragons with essentially immortal living stone dragon statues, a kind of night terror that takes care of eruptadons, the diseases and other things that normal world wouldn't have.
-The hidden world, which seems very unnatural.
-The dragons having many cases of human level at the least intelligence, including dragons pretending to be hurt to lure in people, toothless figuring out how to draw and actually often understanding human speech, dragons figuring out how cages work, etc.
-The prophecy of the king of dragons, which the dragon eye has and as Vigo mentions many times has been in the tribe for centuries, and it comes exactly true.
It's why I like the idea GOT and Httyd exist in the same world, their just on opposite sides of the world and the sea is a massive obstacle.
32:11
Random berserker: Dagur are you crazy?!
Dagur: uhhh, that's been established!
The monstrous nightmare is still the best-looking thing the show. Even without horns.
Seeing clips from the actual HTTYD franchise and RTTE is like eye candy after seeing a bunch of clips from the nine realms. It's like a big wave of nostalgia
Raisor: Every character is bland and terrible
Also raisor: accept you alex, your doing great sweetie
I mean I don't really mind the main kid being Hiccup's descendant but I wish it wasn't a twist but the main plot.
I'd have preferred the decedents of the haddock clan survive and be apart of the team, working to keep the dragons hidden. Plot happens and one of the kids find out
Didn't Tom say in the very first episode that he and his mom we're of Viking descent? To me that was a pretty huge hint that he was probably related to Hiccup.
Trying to make it a twist, rather than confirmation is a bit insult to the audience
32:40 that’s a theme that should never be taken as the right way to handle this dilemma. Ever. It completely goes against what the first 2 movies were trying to build up, that despite the humans’ and dragons’ vast differences and troubled past with each other, times could change and they could work together to coexist peacefully, that’s exactly what Hiccup was trying to show. And they just *threw that all away* in Hidden world, in a terrible, terrible way.
When I was younger I loved how to train your dragon. Looking at this I can’t believe that this isn’t a knock off. When I first heard of it I really thought this was from another company.
I agree with you, How to Train Your Dragon is not a product. My dad is a lawyer and after the Hidden World came out, he used Hiccup and Toothless' relationship as an example in one of the court hearings he attended. Furthering his explanations by talking about the hard decision to keep the dragons safe by having them live apart and applying it to the current issue brought up by the judge.
Oh my… 🫶🏻
That’s low key awesome 🤩 😄
Im calling it now: Tom's father has been living in the hidden world, hence the shield and the spearhead in good condition.
Buzzsaw is Tom's Half brother
Raiserblade: "running around like freddy Voorhees or something". Me: Right that down, RIGHT THAT DOWN!
Wrong this comment down, WRONG this comment down!
(Sorry, but why did you say “right”?)
Can I just say that the edit at the beginning is brilliant.
The music and editing in the intro to this video was fire. No pun intended 😏
“Nooo you’re training a dragon that’s bad”
-the kids, episode 1 of season 3, in HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON
With how much the show seems to prioritize on Alex it almost feels like she was meant to be the main character of it. Everything about her arc has been pretty consistent to the point that if you made the first episode about her meeting Feathers you could take every other episode in season one and minorly tweak them such that it would be consistent. Feathers even plays a critical role in the fight with the fault ripper being that she has a sonic screech, which happens to be the fault ripper's weakness. She objectively has the most character growth in the show so far having once been afraid to even go outside to being ok with putting herself in MORTAL DANGER to protect others.
Tom doesn't even feel like a main character. Thunder and Hiccup 2's goals are constantly sidelined for the sake of filler, he just randomly decides to make a sword because swords are cool or something, he nearly dies in the fault ripper fight because DreamWorks wants to parallel him with hiccup, he befriends Thunder in what can only be described as the most ridiculous way possible. He defeats the Skrill by getting electrocuted. He survives jumping on the Nightmare because Kerosene works differently in the HTTYD:NR universe, apparently. He beats the colonizer by making all the other dragons worship thunder and then they go blast its face, literally what happens in HTTYD 2. He finds the artifacts because he's a descendant of Hiccup and because the show needs him to find it.
I mean seriously, let's just talk about this. Alex befriends Feathers because they both like to be invisible (literally and metaphorically), Purple Eyed Girl (forgot her name because she's boring) befriends Wu and Wei because... she's Chinese??? Why does she befriend that dragon besides stereotypes again? (Edit, looked at the wiki to see what actually happened to make her befriend two dragons at once, basically she just did.) D'Angelo befriends Plowhorn by using his medical knowledge to help her. James Charles befriends the bigger spider dragon because honestly I forgot but I think it has to do something with his sister hating spiders and maybe the spider dragon helped them out of trouble or something. And Tom befriends Thunder by moving a boulder off of his tail even though Thunder could've just exploded the rocks off of himself, trying to feed him a chicken nugget, and then touching his face because DreamWorks wants him to be Hiccup 2.0.
Of all the dragon friendships that are formed, the two people whose connections to their dragons make the least sense are Hiccup 2 and Purple Eyed Girl, and those are the two characters the show is mainly shipping. Of all the dragon friendships that are formed, Alex's and D'angelo's are the most believable. Its like there's two different people writing the show and one wants to copy HTTYD and the other wants to actually make something that is new and special. The show wants SO BAD for Hiccup 2 to be the main character and it goes about ensuring this by shoving it down your throat that he's the main character while he is constantly overshadowed by Alex who is actually a believable character and can't be summed up to something like "Purple Eyed Girl" or "Hiccup 2" or "Not Daggur".
Why did I write an easy in the comments section? Screw this show.
Well said.
That is so true Alex should have been the main character
her being the main character would be the most be believable yet it's like it's ran by two people one does want to make it like something good and the other just wants a copy like how you said.
They should try instead of trying to be like how to train your dragon they should look at it as an example

0:01 memories flashing by
Im putting this series completely separate to how to train your dragon. How to train your dragon has completely finished and this series is a different art style to how to train your dragon. This is just dreamworks exploring what else they can do with dragons and how much more money they can make
Yeah, for me HTTYD is upto HTTYD 2 and then I have written my own storyline, Y'know just fluff
3:31
And maybe they've should've team up with the creators of Pilot Dragon: Hisone and Masotan where they actually able keep dragon's existence a secret without making it cringey and more interesting.
Dagur: "Its beneath me"
Hiccup: "Not yet. Prove to me you can even got on it"
Dagur: oh, okay. Easy!
Dagur* sent flying off of a cliff*
Dagur: "Yep! You've made your point, Hiccup. We'll do it your way"
If DreamWorks does use Flame Jackals as a name, they should pay you Raisor!!
Imagine not just the dragons still exist but the dragon hunters as well...
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) That’d be awesome.
"I expected nothing and I'm still disappointed"
despite the monstrous nightmare having its horns straight up GONE, it's still the best-looking thing in the entire show
It's a shame, because the concept of continuing the story after the hidden world, and showing what would happen when later generations found dragons, to see if they were ready for them. Lots of potential for creative stories and great characters. Unfortunately the creators just didn't care and we got this
Like one thing I would like to the show (probably never going to happen with this writing). Is that BuzzSaw and the white dragon actually team up in a certain way. Maybe buzz in the next season actually grows to hate the group and with the white dragon who also hates them they grow mutual friendship to get rid of the enemies. But sigh that’s just a slight thing that the series would never dare to do.
Came here for the review, left head banging from the intro!
We dont need modern kids riding dragons that dont even look like dragons..
You know what we need...
WE NEED HICCUPS KIDS RIDING DRAGONS!!! COME ON DREAMWORKS
That intro gave me CHILLS bro. Like if someone came up with a modern set httyd that was actually good.
Your videos always make me laugh!! Thanks for making these because the seriously makes my day. You do a really good job at pointing out the mistakes and idiocies of the seasons. Keep up the good work!!!! Also, congrats on having you to being your full-time job now! I hope you keep doing well in the future.😊
16:40 the design for this one looks cool too, nightmare fuel, and yet, so chill, I just wish they knew how to write a good story, heck, write in general.
That dude that questioned why you’d be excited about *making money*… Lol
I mean I could probably think of a better concept modern setting for a HTTYD series. I mean you could do something along the lines of ‘a bunch of planes and ships go missing somewhere in the Baltic or North Sea so the Danish or Swedish or Norwegian Navy is sent to investigate. They are attacked by Dragons in the middle of the night and the survivors find themselves on the hidden world island and now have the not just survive this crazy new biome but find a way to escape as well.’
damn that intro was badass af! Might be the best music edit I've ever seen tbh
20:50 I suddenly had the urge to buy an assault rifle and empty the entire clip into my head
The thing that makes dragons an amazing franchise is how they expand upon the lore and the development of the world itself like how many lands the secret dragons the different Tales at the Vikings told that led up to the meeting new dragons and a new lands that is much different from Burke and made it all interesting because it's something new and something that expands upon the world itself. But why the show not works is because we're so tightly sealed in this one area that they're in they don't have a chance to explore or do anything interesting being in the same area over and over again it's kind of bland but that's what makes the dragons TV show so good because they go outside of Burke and explore and learn new things
U spelt berk
I both agree and disagree. Back in the time of HTTYD (Not Nine Realms era) is when I feel like was much better and more unique in a way, but it was because this was telling the story of a boy and a dragon's bond changed the fates of many (Hiccup and Toothless), and like you said, they expanded upon the lore and the overall development of the world, and how people are interacting with dragons. Nine Realms on the other hand tries to be a deliberate copy of HTTYD and with its garbage writing/storytelling, it doesn't really help matters.
Congrats on getting a sponsor, Raisor! You’re getting up in the world! Keep it up!
The razorwhip is not even shoting the right blast, it was blue in Dragon Riders: race to the edge
9:20 am I the only one that notices the floating red square on the slug on the right like what the fuck it looks so weird
It’s like I’m the spy’s head from team fortress 2, “meet the medic” when dreamworks opens the fridge, I say “kill me” because this is miserable, and dreamworks says “later, just need to add some oil to the bonfir-“ explosion
The intro of this video didn’t need to go this hard but am glad it did.
Wait what, aren't fire worms really hot, like set anything they touch on fire hot? That is one flame retardant bag... and people in general.
Why did they need to make the Dragon suits again?
"Still not as hot as Astrid."
His language is facts.
Facts
The fault ripper and tom shit has broken my Brain right now
That's like If Alan,ellie and the kids Felt bad about the Man-eating raptors after they get killed the t.rex in jp 1
I think these writers doesn't Care about Common Sense
0:00 - 1:10 imagine this as httyd 4's trailer
First of all, great intro by the way that was beautiful, and second, I agree with you on the name Fire Jackals that is actually pretty fitting way better then Flamethrowers. Also i noticed the animation errors too especially where the monster nightmare's horns go missing the was pretty embarrassing.
You know what they could’ve named thunder? Zeus. I just came up with this while watching.
If you wanna something with dragons in modern day, I recommend Reign of Fire and Dragon Pilot.
I have thankfully forgot about this season after rewatching race to the edge again so thanks for shitting on this show so I don’t have to lose my voice yelling at the tv about it
I feel that the Sky tortures fire could be really cool if he would move his head from left to right, so it would create a fire tunnel kinda like a tryfomarang
The general fact that Night Lights shouldn't even exist because of breeding says a lot
God I was wearing headphones and then I hear SLAY QUEEN ATTACK THOSE MONSTERS!! And I just yelled 😂
the difference between the two HTTYD shows is enourmous like on the race for the edge it has PLOT and the characters GROW as people,on the nine realms the plot is very far from the universe(since it "ended" in hidden world) and the character are just a blank(besides th best girl in the show)
Dragons: The Nine Realms, is the horrific lovechild of HTTYD and Paw Patrol.
What a great way of explaining it.
Okay but why does that one scene when tom used a mosterous nightmare to test for his fiver prroff armor that ISNT EVEN COVERING HIS WHOLE BODY looks like fanghook 💀
9:18 yes sir lythero reference never thought I would hear it here of all places.
The funny thing is "The 9 Realms" is literally a reference to Norse mythology. The series is set in the modern day and they decided to name it after a Viking myth.
6:11 is the end of the ad part but to give this dud some support on hell hole known to be how to training your dragons the nine realms please which the ad
I swear they better not bring the dragon eyes back because they were destroyed by hiccup and the gang at the end of race to the edge
So if thunder is a descendant of toothless and thunder literally has the same resemblance to toothless and lightfury, Doesnt that mean that the whole nightfury and lightfury lineage was a huge pile of incest?
There were other light furrys around, but given Thunder does have so much night furry coloring, you might not be to far off.
I know there are ways to bring back breads from mating partial breads, but that is usually methodical
Yes the skytorcher looks kinda neat...can we talk about it's weird talon/claw/hand things though why she shaped like that
Also why prince(james) charles the 5th and not dagger so sus in the woods!
I'm pretty sure I know why that black "brother" turned white for a scene.
I can almost guarantee you he was white, but them SOMEONE either in management or some kind of diversity enforcement thing told them "You need more people of color" so they just picked a random character or two and race swapped them.
But they fucked up and forget that one scene or didn't realize the mistake because of the lighting. The reason I think it's this and not the other way around is there is no reason to do the reverse under any circumstance. Like they already would have had the model so why change the skin tone in that one scene? It's more likely that's the one scene that wasn't altered rather than the other way around.
Because whilte it's certainly possible for them to be siblings it's rather unlikely unless they are adopted. Not impossible especially since a show can do whatever it wants and ignore genetic probability. But it still feels like something that was very likely changed in post edit in an effort to check that diversity box a bit harder. And it's not like making the one brother black is a bad thing either ... but the fact they couldn't even be bothered to check hard enough to find that mistake just shows how overall low effort this production is.
11:20 … “how the fuck did that fit in the bag. on race to the edge hiccup pulls out 2 fucking spare legs and tails from his small fucking satchel. so i’m not surprised
Call the scp foundation I think we have found several anomalies
@@qwertyuiopasdfghjklzxcvbnm6356 i expected someone to say that.
also my fuckin imaginative mind while asleep thought of entering a clock with idk in it and it was like a portal in time for fuckin dragons. then i thought of the fuckin SCP foundation and i woke up and tried to remember it because it was interesting and entertaining. i could imagine the images clearly enough
“grandfathers clock” basically a tall clock like big ben but can feature glass with counterweights and a pendulum that sways side to side. i got one and it has a broke counterweight that constantly needs reset
I wanna say this your an absolutely fantastic channel and I think you deserved that 1mil on the first HTTYD vid
For the last episode at the end have the Faltripper come and help them fight the Skytorcher out of nowhere after they assumed it was dead that would be 100% better
18:03 ... I'm wearing earphones..... my ears just imploded, pls warn me next time 😵💫😵💫
32:04 Including Heather’s adoptive parents! (Although it’s unclear if he killed them personally or one of his armada did but their blood was still on his hands.
the episode with discount james charles is basically just the ep where dagur leared to fly a dragon except 6 year olds wrote it
i love how no one talks about the fact that the Monstrous Nightmare looks exactly like Fanghook. it is a direct copy.
Yo that intro got me so hyped! So epic, very well done. Thank you for that!
...Then just the utter disgusting mess of the nine realms, ugh.
Dreams works don't care about consistency. They believed they are just making it for kids. To them, kids can't comprehend deeper meaning. They just want to get as much money as they can out of it.
i remember in the early show random ass dragons started appearing for no reason until finally they found out about the screaming death and that was just handled so much better then all of the dragons from this show
The show’s writers clearly never heard of checkhov’s gun
I hate when people talk shit about a youtuber when they finally get a sponsor or ads dude shut up if you want this youtuber to upload daily they’ll need to be able to support themselves financially somehow
I'm now convinced that dragons: and the nine realms is a Walmart version of how to train your dragon
I saw a comment asking someone to rewrite the series. Like character designs, dragons, conflict, etc. I might try to once the series is over so be on the look out 👀
IF they are going to make a show to continue this beloved trilogy, I sincerely believe a cute little show about the adventures of the night lights and maybe even with hiccups children is the way to go.
Today I watched this video again and I realized something...
The broncol that vomits blue makes the gem or crystal it eats disappear and it makes me laugh because it dosen't look real.
i would love to hear Raisor talk about race to edge
RTTE was fucking brilliant. Not perfect, but an amazing transition
@@JaggedBird it was amazing at explaining the characters and information that appeared in the second film
I honestly would've been better if they did a show that was set between HTTYD 2 and the hidden world
