Hiccstrid Sucks - Tumblr Posts

Also Astrid is a Trophy Wife, Hiccup didn't do actually much to earn her love?

They took, as I like to say, a magical dragon ride together and BOOM she is in love.

A big step was missing you can't go from hating someone guts, and hitting this person too, to like them.

I mean what the heck?

Astrid should have stayed a shield maiden.

Hiccup should have a partner who can relate to him and understand him!

And Light Furry, no thank you we wanted badass female Night Furry!

Just bad writing in the romace departement.

The only important relantenship is the one between Hiccup and Toothless we for me are platonic soul mates.

All the movies work fine and make still sense without Hiccstrid but wouldn't work if you take away the bond that Hiccup and Toothless share.

That's why the third doesn't exist for me, in what world would Hiccup and Toothless leave each other if they fought so long to stay together?

Anyway good points OP, I hope me adding this was alright ^^

I'm not a fan of H*ccstrid, I never was. I rewatched the first movie and second movie. And I just don't..

The physical abuse Hiccup suffered because of Astrid, who he had a crush on still -boy at that point just move the fuck on she's making you her bitch, makes me uncomfortable. That kiss at the end? Not earned. The relationship, much like Sherman/Penny, is classic Mean Bitch/Dorky Good Guy.

The second? She tried to push him into being chief, when he wasn't ready for it. I read a post that said Astrid was the reason Stoic died. And I agree. She didn't listen, led the others right to Drago like an idiot, wouldn't shut her fucking mouth and because of that, and how the fuck ever Drago FOUND them as the Haddock family was finally back together for the first time in 20 something year's, Stoic died.

The third? It's glossy and gross and yeah.. too much visual grossnes, from the character models to the gross practically glowing Not Night Fury. The Not Light Fury is Astrid's dragonsona (as Stormfly was almost nonexistent), a bitch to Toothless (who had a crush on her), she hit him and attacked Hiccup. But yeah, the stupid resolution aside, the wedding was just.. kinda lame. It wasn't earned. Nope.

Could agree more OP!

I like Astrid.

I like Hiccup.

But please not together.

That girl was so mean in the first movie to him then they have a magical dragon ride together and boom she is love.

Erm what?

A big step was missed.

Also she is clearly Hiccup Trophy Wife he doesn't do a lot and gets the girl.

Astrid should have stayed a shield maiden and Hiccup finding a partner who understands and can relate to him.

lmao hiccstrid aint abusive. Yall just dont like Astrid and try to make up excuses to invalidate them.

Hiccup clearly loves her and she loves him. He's a smart person and if he was in an abusive relationship or in one that he's not happy, he could easily get out of it.

Your crackships are just that, CRACKships🥴

First of all I love Astrid as a character. I've grown up with these characters my whole teenage to adult life and I can spot the differences. She's literally the person we should look up to. But they fucking did her dirty by pairing her with Hiccup. I love Hiccup too. They just. Don't fit right if that makes sense.

The reason why this ship doesn't sit right comes entirely from the first movie. Several times she uses physical aggression towards him. Example, twisting his arms , shoving his head into rock and over all causing him extreme pain. But because she kisses him and becomes interested in him its okay? I don't think so. If it were the other way everyone would be all over it. Saying its not okay a boy did it.

Fast forward to the shows in between. Similar things happen where Hiccup is very vocal about Astrid hitting him and asks her 26 times throughout the series for her to stop. She doesn't. Not to mention she threw several hissy fits during times of great peril for Hiccup not paying attention to you guessed it her. Also going on so I will make a separate posts about his animation that shows he's not okay and that the animators behind the series didn't seem okay to it either. 😌

In the TV series we find out Astrid and her family are disgraced in the eyes of Berk even worse than Hiccup being the tribe outcast. She has the great potential but they threw it under the bus in my honest opinion.

The other reason why I don't like the ship is because ASTRID IS THE REASON STOICK DIED! Let that one sink in. If she hadn't flown her mouth off as she did in Drago's scene we find out later in the same scene Hiccup and family were going to go to Berk. Safety in numbers. But because of what Astrid said it caused Drago to strike premature and caused the death of Hiccup's father.

Lastly the animation of Hiccups discomfort around Astrid continues in the third movie. I really don't like the third movie cause they tossed out a lot of the character development for the book ending but that's another story for another time but I'm going to say a lot of people who are in abusive relationships find themselves unable to get out of it safely. But in Hiccup's case he wouldn't be able to do so he's the chief. In viking times if something were to happen as him leaving a relationship like that he and his children would be at risk by other tribe members who already don't see him fit to be chief.

In conclusion that whole ship is just a power grab to help redeem and already disgraced family. While the kids are cute he's got better chemistry with other characters. Not to mention there's animated proof behind it too. So.

I prefer Astrid as shield maiden, but your plot for Hidden World is way better then what we got!

I hate Hiccstrid

That’s right, I said it. Who wants a piece of me?! I just found it annoying. I like both Hiccup and Astrid as characters, but them as a couple?

Yeah, no thanks. Hiccstrid is just annoying, and I think it would’ve been better if Astrid ended up with Eret instead and Hiccup had to find new love in some way in the Hidden World. Maybe he meets another girl who happens to be friends with the Light Fury and fell for her and he and Toothless start questioning wether or not they are ready for romance right now. That could’ve be cool to see. Plus, maybe have the dragons stay and have the message be that you can still be friends even in the most dire situations. Plus, a lot of people have been saying that you are not a true HTTYD fan if you don’t ship Hiccstrid. You know what I say to that?

Just replace country with fandom and that’s what I have to say, since you aren’t a true HTTYD fan if you can’t acknowledge Toothless and just think of him as a motorbike or something since he is very important.

OP show us the forbidden knowledge 😀

For the anon who keeps telling me about hicc.strid.

No I won't stop saying its abusive and toxic. It is and I have not only animated screenshot proof but also several pages long essay in the matter.

I will not be silenced and I will stand on this hill until it crumbles to dust saying it. I don't care how long its been. Its how it is.

OP you are so damn right the only relantenship that matters is Hiccup and Toothless.

All the movies and series would have worked fine without Hiccstrid, but without Hiccup and Toothless bond?

Never!

That's why the third movie doesn't exist for me because in no world would this two leave each other!

I find it sad that the only thing the majority of the how to train your dragon fandom gives a damn about is hiccup and astrids romance

Never ever will I ship it 😔🙏

Call out on fandom

I want to see how meny non hiccstrid shippers are here

Reblog this if you arent shipper of Hiccstrid so I will give you a follow

I always saw Astrid as the Trophy Wife for Hiccup, like he just takes her on a flight and she is all over him?????????

A step was missing, a really big one.

Straight People™: I don’t ship -insert same sex couple here-. It just felt like pandering to me :/

Me: well, I don’t ship -insert het couple here- because not only did it feel pandering, it also felt rushed and boring. Plus a lot of the writing takes away the woman’s characterization and just turned her into a trophy girlfriend to the male protagonist. :/

Straight People™: oHhHh sO you think love stories are bad, huh??? You think a woman falling for a man makes her weak huh??? Well lOOK at this one time that she punched a dude in the face! So that means her characterization is still there!! Watch the show more closely next time. GOD!

Body language says it all my dudes.

His reaction with Astrid says a thousand things. She literally twisted his arm behind his back to the point we actually hear cracking. With Eret he gets all giggly and giddy. Because Eret just gently paps his shoulder like a great guy. 

Ya’ll excusing her behavior because she likes him? 

Wtf. Sorry. But not allowed or happening don’t come near me. This is from the same film go fuck off.
