Hiccup in the tv and movies: Displays incredible strength holding unto the Lightfury with his and Grimmel's weight with one arm while unbuckling Grimmel's device also holds half his dragon's weight with one leg. Beats guys twice his weight. Does acrobatic moves with one leg. Runs just as fast as anybody even with a metal leg. Can use a shield, a bow, a sword and a knife as weapons.
Hiccup depicted by fans: Can't lift anything also clumsy asf even though he never even tripped on his own feet or fumble after the first film. Has "poor coordination" even though the way he and toothless fly requires great coordination. Let's make him weak, uncoordinated, and absolutely incapable just to glorify how strong Astrid is cuz yeah. Fuck character development and the story of how Hiccup learns to stand on his own only Astrid should be the strong capable one. What Hiccup is athletic now? No fuck that we can't let him be athletic and capable only Astrid because she'll lose everything special about her.
