Hiccup, Astrid, Fishlegs, Tuffnut, Ruffnut, and Snotlout (i.e., the Dragon Riders) also set up camp on an outlying island–Dragon’s Edge–and each designs his or her own clubhouse. Linked together, this constitutes one heck of a cool place that I really want to visit. (Playset sold separately.)

There’s a plan in place to tell a single story over the course of the series that will ultimately lead directly into the second movie at the same time as How to Train Your Dragon 3 comes out in theaters (currently slated for June 2018). #Synergy

Following the Netflix model of “propulsive serialization,” Race to the Edge will be a serialized show with standalone stories every four or five episodes. Typically, those standalone episodes will introduce a new, previously undiscovered dragon.

Expect the world of Berk to open up significantly with this series as the creators have confirmed 52 episodes in production. Over the first season alone, we’ll meet at least two new female characters, eight new dragons, and several new islands and locations as Hiccup and the gang spread out and explore the archipelago. (The creators also confirmed that 7-8 new dragons will be introduced each season.)

Since the show is telling a single story (more or less) that is serialized over several seasons, you can also expect a more immersive world and deeper character exploration than is possible in a 90-minute feature film. The writers made a conscious effort not only to make the show enjoyable by both kids and adults but also to make the experience cinematic and not simply a “lesser” version of the films.

That’s more than just a nice PR quote. One look at the animation in Race to the Edge, and it’s obvious that the move to Netflix was decidedly good for Hiccup, Toothless, and the gang. The animation quality, character design, lighting, and everything else are vastly improved over the Cartoon Network shows, and Race to the Edge feels remarkably close to the films–not just in picture quality but also in spirit.
