* ButtMonkey: Hiccup. To list: He gets constantly hit by his daughter's dragon traps, gets reminded of what kind of a person he was like before the events of the films to the extent that his wife actually mistakes the person playing Hiccup as him, got DemotedToExtra in his ''very own play'', has all his achievements credited to his father, and gets trapped in the Toothless costume he himself invented. Though it's offset by the fact that his play accomplished ''exactly'' what he wanted: to honor Stoick's memory and endear the next generation of Berkians to dragons.

Added DiffLines:

* BrokenAesop: A retroactive one for ''WesternAnimation/HowToTrainYourDragonTheHiddenWorld''. In that film, Hiccup decides dragons and Vikings should be separate for their safety, and the dragons can return when humans "deserve" them. This is meant to be about a hard, loving choice made for the greater good. But in this short, the next generation of Vikings have grown fearful and superstitious of dragons, specifically because of their absence. Hiccup tries to make a pageant to convince them otherwise, but this ends up a near-disaster, and in the end, [[spoiler:it only succeeds ''because'' Toothless returned.]] So the separation between Vikings and dragons is shown to be the wrong choice, which has deepened the divide, and only the dragons' return fixed that divide.
