Yes, girlhood can absolutely be "not gatekeeping clothes and makeup" and "backing each other up in front of guys" and "walking home safely together" and "singing songs together" and yada yada yada and yes that's all part of girlhood but you know what?
If Astrid being ready to slaughter Throk with her axe because he thinks its acceptable to kidnap and force Ruffnut to marry him isn't ✨ peak girlhood ✨, then I no longer believe in it.

so rewatching rtte right now and im on season 6 and i just realized that the hiccstrid dynamic is getting very similar to their dynamic in httyd 2 and 3. like yes, their dynamic has always been best friend partner in battle support system, but there’s just a different more mature feeling with it that happens in httyd 2 and 3 and just watching season 6 i’m starting to see that dynamic happen a lot more. just something i noticed, which makes sense since httyd 2 takes place only a year after rtte ends

Golden Bois... Or Are They Really? (RTTE)
Tumblr media
After re-watching the RTTE series, what's curious to note is that the Flyers riding the yellow Singetails all have gold-scaled dragonskin shirts — or, at least, I don't remember seeing them riding anything BUT the yellow Singetails. I kinda find that interesting. Love the color scheme, but it'd be nice if there was a reason for that.
I just thought of something completely macabre: Wouldn't it be interesting if the gold-scaled dragonskin shirts were from yellow Singetails, so that the yellow Singetail could accept the Flyer easier? But then, if that's the case, the question would then be why the other Flyers don't do that instead of wearing dragonskins of other dragon species?
Of course, as I say that, there are a few instances where others ride the yellow Singetail, such as this Zippleback-skin garbed Flyer in "Guardians of Vanaheim".
(I edited these following photos to make it easier for you guys to see, since the backgrounds were night-time.)
Tumblr media
And in "Family Matters," we see a gold-scaled Flyer NOT riding a yellow Singetail, but rather his Nightmare-skinned comrade instead.
Tumblr media
So much for that theory. Thrown off a cliff like one of Snotlout's trust exercises gone awry. lol 🤪
There are even some examples of the Nightmare-skin bois riding the yellow Singetails, like this one in "Family Matters", who, interestingly enough, is wearing a Nadder-wing skirt if you squint.
Tumblr media
So yeah, that was an interesting observation. Thank goodness I rewatched Season 5 and 6 or else this would've been very embarrassing. lol 😅
So this wasn't the article I had originally planned on writing for this weekend, but one of my back-ups. However, I ended up having a rough weekend, so this was what I could do. Hope you guys enjoyed this a bit, at least.
Long Live the Night!

Now I'm curious to know what's in some of your drafts.
Here is where I come to say that the vast majority is Race to the Edge analysis XD. I honestly don't know how the number got to a whopping 57, but well there ya go. And I also have drafts that have been gathering digital dust since the release of RTTE Season 6.
When peering all the way back I did see that some of what I've said has been used in other posts, but I still can't bring myself to delete them.
Then there's evidence of my Danny Phantom hyperfixation before I drifted back to RTTE; oh and there's even some writing drabbles where the idea never really fleshed out. As well as some Owl House episode reviews that need a lot more for the long post they'll turn into.
Thank you for the ask! <3

Okay so if I'm not mistaken, RTTE was meant to end after four seasons, and got greenlit for a final two seasons later, right? And they obviously had to come up with a final story arc to close it off.
Meaning Johann wasn't meant to be evil for the first four seasons, they just looked at it and realized that basically every single episode since his FIRST EPISODE IN RIDERS OF BERK (dragon flower where he sells Mildew the blue oleander (which is poisonous to dragons)), Johann could potentially have been up to something nefarious and realized that they'd ACCIDENTALLY set up for the biggest, longest building plot twist in the entire franchise like,,,, on. ACCIDENT.

HC that Hiccup is HORRIBLY afraid of deep water... i guess it doesn't make too much sense with how much ocean they fly over but like. he's almost drowned SO many times. like, in the first movie, when he tries to get toothless off the boat, then in RoB/DoB it happens a bunch, (Riders e12 after getting struck by lightning (yeesh) Riders e15 Dagur mentions throwing Hiccup into a lake as a kid, Defenders e16 when he gets dragged down by eels (why...)) a couple of times in RTTE (s3e12, diving after the chest, s4e6 just. all of it.) like. dude. SURELY that's gotta affect him a little.
anyways it's interesting to think about. especially after s4e6, you'd think he'd have some sort of aversion.

HTTYD continuity: Are there two Hiccups?
First of all, thank you for all the likes and reblogs on my ‘there are two Hiccups’ post. It’s seriously blowing my mind how popular it is. So, if you read it and thought “what? There are two Hiccups?”
Well, no… but actually yes. I wasn’t being literal (I know, on the reading comprehension website? Shame on me), but the thing is, I’m actually kind of right? Just look at these examples from the wiki:
The entire series is based on the six main Dragon Riders moving away from Berk for over a year. However, in commentary, Dean DeBlois has said that they all lived on Berk between the first two films. The second film’s Art Book elaborates on this saying that they all had responsibilities on Berk which prevented them from leaving.
In other words, as far as Dean is concerned, RTTE never happened.
The series also focuses on the six main Dragon Riders exploring lands outside the Archipelago together, while both Dean and the second film’s Art Book state that only Hiccup and Astrid ventured outside the Archipelago as they were the ones drawing up Hiccup's map. The other four stayed much closer to Berk.
Again, we have a direct contradiction between what Dean claims happened pre-HTTYD2 in his (head)canon, and what we see in RTTE.
Numerous other "dragon riders" are introduced throughout the series, when the second and third films themselves stress how Berk is the only community who rides dragons. Dean elaborated on this during a convention panel explaining that that’s why Eret and Drago were so alarmed when seeing Vikings riding on dragons, and why Eret assumed Valka was one of them.
In an interview with the series creators Art Brown and Douglas Sloan, it was mentioned that the show was originally meant to have 4 seasons, spread out over the span of a year and a half, leading up to the second film. Following the many clues and mentions regarding the passage of time within the story, the last 7 episodes of season 4 were supposed to have happened during the same summer as the film. However, when seasons 5 and 6 were ordered into production, the show writers had to carry on with the timeline they had set up, which inevitably lead to the series continuing into negative time; going past the second film.
In other words, the last two seasons of RTTE aren’t meant to take place before HTTYD2 - they take place after it. If there’s better proof that RTTE is on its own separate timeline, I don’t know what that is.
The majority of film characters are portrayed severely out-of-character in the series compared to the films and film-verse media; most arguably Hiccup and Astrid. Aside from having similar appearance and even voices, their personalities and behaviors in the series portray them as drastically different people than their film counterparts.
I would argue that they are more in character during RTTE, especially Snotlout, the twins and Fishlegs. Isn’t it amazing what being fleshed out characters instead of comic relief can do? But there you have it. RTTE!Hiccup is portrayed as drastically different to his film counterpart. When push comes to shove, there are two Hiccups.
Or, you know, three, if we count the one from the books 😂.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to get back to lamenting the fact we live in the timeline where THW exists and not the timeline where the writers of RTTE were allowed to make a full length conclusion movie.

As promised, I'm back on my httyd bullshit. Here's a list of things that don't make sense unless you watch the shows (idgaf if they're cannon or not, they should be for the background of small details!!!)
1. Grump.
Grump is Gobber's Hotburple in Httyd 2 and 3. But not in httyd 1. So this begs the question: Where and when did Gobber get Grump? The answer? Race to the Edge S3 E12, "Last Auction heros." Gobber and Snotlout go to Viggo's dragon auction undercover, and Grump is one of the dragons for sale. Without that episode, Grump is just a dragon they shoved into the second movie for shots and giggles.
2. Inferno
Inferno is a blade that Hiccup created himself that lights itself on fire using monstrous nightmare gel and can eject and ignite zippleback gas. To the casual watcher, he just showed up with it in the second movie. But Inferno is ALSO from rtte! Inferno's first form comes from S3 E9, "Tone Death." Hiccup then works further on it, but Inferno as we know it is actually based on a version of the blade that VIGGO GRIMBORN, the villain for most of RTTE, made.
3. The Deadly Nadder(? Looks like a nadder) plushie
Although this is a small detail that is only seen in the background of the later Httyd movies, it is still a detail that first appears within the SHOW'S cannon lore. According to S1 E17 of Riders of Berk, the toy was made by Valka when Hiccup was a baby. However, tiny Hiccup was so scared of the toy that he threw it in the ocean. Trader Johann managed to get ahold of it, and the episode was about the riders trying to save with mystery item because something happened to Johann's ship. I don't remember what. Something about smoldering smoke breaths, I think.
4. Skull Crusher
Skull Crush is Stoick the Vast's Rumblehorn in Httyd 2 and 3, who is later inherited by Eret, son of Eret upon Soick's death in Httyd 2. But again, where and when did Stoick get Shullcrusher? Because it seems like he just appeared. Well, I have that answer! Skull Crusher first appears in S1 E8, "Crushing It." In the episode, the gang is tormented by a Rumblehorn who keeps destroying their camp. Hiccup asks his Dad for help, and his Dad is able to train and befriend the wild dragon.
5. Hiccup's flight suit
In Httyd 2 and 3, Hiccup has/is trying to perfect a flight suit attached to his armor. Now, this could just be seen as Hiccup being a silly inventor off-screen, but it ACTUALLY shows up in Race to the Edge! S1 E12 "The Next Big Sting" actually opens with Hiccup trying out his first design for the flight suit. He does it many times, each time having to be saved by Toothless before he crashes into some form of rock/sea stack (much like in Httyd 2).
6. Hiccup's aging
I saw a post either on here or on tiktok the other day where someone was complaining about how different hiccup looked between 1 and 2. In 1, he's like...what...13?15? Where as He's about 20-21 ish by Httyd 2. To fans who don't obsess over something and consume all the media like I do, this would be a bit of a shock. I mean, you go from this:
Tumblr media
Immediately to this:
Tumblr media
Where as fans of the shows had this progression:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Much easier to swallow.
7. The Bewilderbeast
This is, again, something that could be choked up to the writers wanting more than just 7 species of dragons. HOWEVER, this dragon is actually the center point of the last few episodes of Race to the Edge. We learn a little bit about the dragon over the corse of the last season, which takes place just a year or two before Httyd 2.
9. VALKA HERSELF
I watched Race to the Edge long before I watched Httyd 2, so I had 0 clue the Hiccup's mom was still alive or what her mask looked like. But in the last bit of the last episode of race to the edge, guess what we see?
Tumblr media
VALKA TAKING THE BEWILDERBEAST EGG.
In conclusion, these show's should be considered cannon to the HTTYD universe just as much as fucking Homecoming should or what ever. These are amazing and fill in so many continuity

Ok. We all know well how much Viggo calls Hiccup "mu dear Hiccup". It sounds condescending or tesing at best most of the time (except that one time he was found in a pit)
Now, have you noticed that this is no longer the case in Triple Cross? "Oh, Hiccup, you have many admirable qualities[...]" "Don't be like that, Hiccup!" "You taught me that, Hiccup' "Hiccup, you are more ruthless than you realize." Not a single one of "my dear"s. I have a feeling this is a sign he finally was brave enough to admit to himself (and others) that he truly respects that kid and that he cares. No more taunts. No more mockery. This boy is not inferior and now he earnestly begins to treat him as such at long last. This character progression makes me squirm in glee and heartache
Oh, dude (sorry that I call like, all my anons “dude”), you’re so right. I never actually thought about it like that, but now that you’re bringing it to my attention? Oh, delicious. Some very fine cuisine the RTTE writers and Alfred Molina gave us right here.
Oh god. Oh god, now I’m just thinking of Horvath (Alfred Molina) calling Dave (Jay Baruchel) “sweetheart” in The Sorcerer’s Apprentice. It has the same kind of energy.
But yeah, oooh, Viggo’s character development in seasons 5 and 6 was so good. Actually, all his character development was so good. He was so well written and well done.

Anyway, hope you guys like this edit. Please give kudos and reblogs to support my blog. 😘

I know that as each season of Race to the Edge was released, there was a trailer put out beforehand. Season 3 is the only one that didn't get a trailer. But 1, 2, 4, 5, and 6 did. I definitely remember how wild us here on fandom went over Season 6 trailer. I will admit I legit tear up whenever I watch it.
ANYWAY
I also vividly remember the Riders of Berk trailers, know that those actually were placed in DreamWorks movies.
However I've never known, where were the RttE trailers aired? Can anyone name me a DreamWorks movie they could have put those in?

So according to rtte season 6 episode 5, Snotlout killed a bear when he was only nine months old. He does not get enough credit for how great he is I'm just saying-
