** Grimmel himself. He is positioned as an evil counterpart to Hiccup, and his backstory is interesting and exciting, reinforcing his similarities to Hiccup, and the cartoon itself positions him as an incredibly dangerous, cunning and intelligent adversary for Hiccup. However, as with Drago, his backstory is brought up once and not explored in detail, his similarities to Hiccup are also brought up once, and all of his actions, succeeds only through coincidence and the IdiotBall being grabbed by other characters, rather than through his intelligence or cunning. The fact that he doesn't try to manipulate the Berkians into turning them against Hiccup, as stated below, or any other similar tricks Grimmel might have demonstrated, doesn't help matters.

Apart from Ruffnutt, we don't even see Grimmel interact with the other riders or the other main dragons as well.

** It is established that Eret and Grimmel have crossed paths before. However, in present day, we never see them interact with one another. Whether through dialogue or fighting each other.

** In almost every scene, Grimmel has seen Hiccup with Astrid. It would have been interesting to see what would happen if Grimmel realized that Astrid is someone Hiccup cares for and actually try to harm her right in front of him. Whether it's trying shooting her with Deathgripper venom, attempting to capture her as well [[spoiler:when capturing Toothless and the Light Fury]], or siccing his Deathgrippers and/or the [[spoiler:controlled Light Fury]] on her.

* Grimmel sees Hiccup as an insignificant leader to the Berkians. Seeing as how Grimmel has a habit for taunting Hiccup for his idea of humans and dragons coexisting together, it would have paid to see Grimmel also insult Hiccup for feeling that the latter has what it takes to be a good leader as a way to demoralize Hiccup, or worse, anger Hiccup into performing reckless attacks or maneuvers which could favor Grimmel in some way.
