Dragones: carrera al borde

I am a big fan of the How To Train Your Dragon movie franchise and was rather excited to delve into this series.

Many have complained that there are errors and elements that are left out of the series and contradictions to the second film. I can see why they aren't completely satisfied with some character developments and focus. However after completing the series and waiting until the 2018 final series to come out, I can honestly say it was a wonderful experience with alot of adventures, interesting new dragons and characters and concludes nicely to lead onto the second film.

The characters have lots of development, with the introduction of new unique characters with interesting back stories. The series is PG and connects with young kids and the older generation. The kids loved the action and all the dragons and jokes, whilst the adults also enjoyed. A great family series.

I won't go into too much detail as do not want to spoil the series, but if you like the franchise and want to experience new adventures of hiccup and toothless, along with an array of colourful new dragons. This is the series for you.

I was slightly skeptical whenever I decided to watch the show, I love the franchise with my whole heart so I just had to see what they have done, most of the tv shows of famous franchises always feel very different from the movies. But it's definitely not the case here.

First of all, the writing in the show is absolutely top notch(arguably even better than the movies), every single character of the show has so much depth to him and it really helps showcase more the supporting characters of the movies and fill them with personality. In addition, it's hilarious and the humor is outstanding to pretty much most of the tv shows I have ever seen.

One thing I really love about it is that every episode feels like an entire adventure of the characters and every two parter is just almost a movie on it's own, truly fleshing out the franchise in it's full glory.

The second point is the animation, even though you can somewhat feel the lower budget, it takes absolutely nothing from the glorious battles scenes and the good parts of the animation are really not forgotten.

To conclude, this is now my new comfort show for probably forever and I just can't get enough of it, in my opinion every single person who remotely likes the franchise can have an absolute blast watching this show.

So go watch it now, you won't regret it.

Having finally finished watching the entire Dragons: Race to the Edge to its full fruition, I'm going to retract my previous review.

Race to the Edge is not as formulaic and repetitive as I had initially assumed. The first season might have been a little dull but by the second- and third season, the show is a full- on action packed adventure with the right amount of romance, comedy and drama. Viggo Grimborn is one of the most cunning and vicious villains to grace animated television. It's just an added bonus that he is voiced by the great Alfred Molina.

Adults will enjoy this alongside with their children. It builds up to the second How to Train Your Dragon, showing us how the youths grew up. The animation as well is remarkable, pretty impressive for a mini television show.

I write this mostly because i finished it now and i want more,i liked all the aspects about it:the story,characters,sound of all the episodes etc.OMG!You need to watch it!It is interesting for all the ages!

For someone who loves the How to Train Your Dragon Francaise like me they will enjoy this series very much. The first 2 seasons were a bit boring and there wasn't a very good plot and there wasn't much character development. But from season 3-6 it was a very impressive series. The characters themselves were put into a lot more detail and there were twists and turns you could never see coming. Some of the more recent characters like Viggo Grimborn and Mala were very engaging. Viggo is a very lovable villian throughout the series mainly because he is very intelligent and makes an impact to the other characters especially Hiccup. Mala is a very strong female character that was very well spoken and very well done. The relationship between characters such as the relationship between Astrid and Hiccup was also well done, and added a lot of depth especially in the last season. Fans like me loved all the Hiccstrid moments throughout the series. I also love how we pay more attention to more miner characters such as Tuffnut and Ruffnut because they are given very little detail in the movies. Another thing i love is the soundtrack. The HTTYD francaise has always had amazing music and they nailed it throughout the series. The character development was very well done in preperation to HTTYD as we get to see different perspectives to all the characters. The revealations were built up through a period of time and kept fans on the edges of their seats to see what would happen, and to develop many theories. This series was very thought out, fans realised this in the final season when they explained some very important details and facts about one particular thing that I will not say so that you can discover it yourself.

Overall, this series is a very enjoyable series and was a great bridge between HTTYD 1 & 2. I recommend this series for 11- bascially any age, because adults I know enjoy this series very much.
