History TearJerker / DragonsRidersOfBerk

* One for Snotlout of all people. The twins send him on a series of wild goose chases before they'll let him into their party, but by the time he's done it's over and everyone's gone home. You can hear him tearing up over the whole thing.

** The attempted sensitivity of the townsfolk make it worse as the others tell a freaked out Viking to don't say it in front of her.

* Fright of passage

** Even for those who regard his as TheScrappy, it's hard to not feel for Snotlout. The whole tone plays out that he is breaking down because he is likely the very cause for what could have been ''his best friend's death'' and goes from haughty jerk to near-sobbing wreck. Anyone who lost a pet would empathize with him.

* "Race to Fireworm Island". Dear God, even with LikeYouWouldReallyDoIt in full swing, [[spoiler:the possibility that the Fireworm Queen might have ''killed Hookfang'' will get to you]].

* Hiccup talking about how he was afraid of forgetting his mom in Breakneck Bog.

* In We Are The Family, Mildew (Yes Mildew) shows off some TearJerker scenes. First of all he has Fungus, the only thing he actually cares about, taken from him and suggested that he was going to be eaten. He then helps Hiccup get back to Toothless. He even performs a HeroicSacrific at the end asking Gobber to make sure that Hiccup knows he is sorry for all he is done before letting go so they could escape. Then another type of TearJerker scene comes when [[spoiler: he never changed and was working with Alvin all along, showing a character that finally seemed to be turning a new leaf is even worse]].

* In "Viking for Hire" when Hookfang is deemed too dangerous to live safely in the village, Snoutlout can only manage to repeat what Hiccup says, with more emphasis and tears.

* Watching poor Toothless trussed up and refusing to eat or drink anything.

** Which then comes back in "Breakneck Bog" where he says it again.

* It's a small moment but you see Snotlout's insecurities come through in "The Defiant One" when after they've managed to survive the giant waterspout and wondering where Hookfang is, you hear him say [[spoiler:"I always knew Hookfang didn't like me."]] Couple that with the small speech he gives later to Hiccup which indicates how overshadowed he feels in comparison you almost feel for the guy. Almost.

* Seeing the twins, usually are Comedy Relief, fighting with each other in a way that isn't comical at all. And an easy thing to understand for anyone who's ever had brothers or sisters; Tuffnut's rant about not having anything that's just ''his'', as opposed to ''theirs'', hits particularly hard.

* The strain on Hiccup and Toothless's friendship in "What Flies Beneath" was also very hard to watch. Toothless was caught up in his grudge against the Whispering Death to the point where he refused to let Hiccup help, even though doing so left both of them flightless and handicapped. It culminated in Toothless firing a plasma blast just inches from Hiccup's feet just to keep him from following, and Hiccup had to resort to [[spoiler:jumping off of a cliff]] just to snap him out of it.

** Seeing Hiccup be [[spoiler: struck by lightning]] was pretty hard to watch.

-->Snoutlout: He's a ''good'' dragon!

* Hiccup's increasingly desperate attempts to protect/save Toothless in "When Lightning Strikes".

* Seeing the look on Snotlout's face, first when his father lectures him about not losing, and later when you see the look on his face when he knows he has all but lost [[spoiler: (though quickly reversed thanks to Hiccup deciding to throw the race)]], you can't help but feel some pity for him, as the source of his JerkJock tendencies become apparent.

** And then after all of that where Hiccup is back with Toothless, he tells his worried father that everything is going to be fine. Yet immediately after his father leaves he worriedly hold back onto Toothless. This showing that despite Hiccup's statement, he was not fully sure himself.

** Hiccup saying goodbye to [[spoiler: Toothless (yet again; the fanbase cannot handle them being separated) before going off to get the venom that will save his life]].

* Watching [[spoiler: the dragons get sick]] in "Dragon Flower" was hard, especially when we found out that [[spoiler: the allergic reaction to the flowers was of the deadly sort]]. Hiccup saying goodbye to [[spoiler: Toothless (yet again; the fanbase cannot handle them being separated) before going off to get the venom that will save his life]].

* In "Portrait of Hiccup as a Buff Young Man", Stoick [[spoiler: digging through the rubble to get to Hiccup. Think about it; this is the second time he's thought Hiccup was dead ''because of something he did''. This time it was an innocent moment of insensitivity, but it still caused Hiccup to go out and try to prove himself.]] Now imagine the guilt.
