MY OPINION ON EVERYTHING, ORGANISED (but not really)
Visuals
THE VISUALS WERE AMAZING THIS SEASON
I mean, I'm no expert, so my opinion isn't really all that logical and are kind of biased, but the animation this time was absolutely stunning. Flawless. Everything was detailed, and I especially loved the angles and lighting. I was so happy I could see Hiccup's scar at one point. (can we just talk about Astrid's hair like ???? can i marry her hair plz?? everything was detailed omg) (also i kept on staring at Dagur's face like dAM N THAT DETAIL)
I'm not sure if any of you guys saw, but on the chat, I repeatedly pointed out the fire. like dID YOU SEE THE FIRE AND THAT TORCH AND THE FLAMES? LIKE WOW i think they put more effort into the fire than the opening lmao
also THE DRAGONS (ESP TOOTH)'S EXPRESSIONS WERE GREAT

Plot
The plot was really good this season. I don't think I skipped any moments, and I only yelled at the characters a few times. (like Mala at the end or like no one believing in Dagur [small][small][imeantheyhadtheirreasonsbutmybaby,lookathiscrestfallenfaceomg][/small][/small])
Loved the twists even if they were all pretty predictable, except episode 11
The darker side to the show was unexpectedly amazing. Injuries, arrows sticking out of bodies, brandings, leeaches (ew), more injuries.
There were links to Drago as well. I think in the last episode, Viggo says that he didn't want to rule the world, unlike some people. Maybe some people, as in Drago?? And the brand looked eerily similar to Eret's... Maybe they're reluctant allies?
And the lead up to the flight suit and the Inferno!! Ok, not so much the flight suit this season, but the development of the Inferno! Everyone hates the name haha.
The new dragons were great, and I really wanted to see more of the Triple Striker (Stryker?) (Is it actually called the 'Sleuther?) It kinda looks like a Pokemon. I'm also really excited for the new Boulder Class.
EVERYTHING'S SO EXCITING THIS SEASON ( except hiccstrid dammit)

Characters
Personally I loved Dagur's arc, short as it was. The end made me cry a lot bit, but I'm sure there's more for him. Maybe. (I mean, remember Alvin?)
Fishlegs' development was also pretty outstanding this season; his and Hiccup's relationship seemed a lot like Hiccup and Stoick's I also loved the Heather/Fish ship.
Heather's personality was a lot more fleshed out this time as well, but again, at the end of ep 11
Snotlout was my favourite this season by far,probably an unpopular opinion, mainly 'cause of his contribution to the humour. I honestly love him to bits. He and the twins really did help lighten the mood at points, although Tuff in the last episode was a bit
The others have been great as well, but Hiccup's character was really starting to worry me. I hope I'm not the only one a bit irked about it.
He's been a bit too paranoid and distrustful of people he should trust, and really gullible with people he definitely shouldn't trust.
There was an episode where the twins were thrown off by a Quaken's quake and he just said something along the lines of 'They'll be fine, they've survived worse'. idk, but I didn't think Hiccup would say that to his teammate and just brush them off so easily. Idk, maybe I'm overreacting over that bit.
I used so many emojis, forgive me for my rant lol.Fishlegs' development was also pretty outstanding this season; his and Hiccup's relationship seemed a lot like Hiccup and Stoick's I also loved the Heather/Fish ship.
