User blog:The Woolly Howl/He's not dead?

MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD. If you haven't watch Family on the Edge, I would highly recommend you not to carry on reading. When I mean major, I mean MAJOR.

Dreamworks recently tweeted a little somethng that went 'I have a feeling w haven't seen the lat of Dagur...'. Is Dagur still alive? We clearly saw his dagger sink, symbolising his fate in the deep sea and Astrid confirmed this by convincing Hiccup that he was gone. But we haven't actually seen his body.

I personally do not wish for him to come back. Yep, I'm anticipating a slap from my fellow dragon fan in school. But really, I felt his death really necessary. He was one of my absolute favourite characters. Witty, hilarious and very, very deranged, even when he was still a villian.

However, I feel that his death was someow necessary. He wasn't given a proper funeral, neither was he remembered as 'good guy' by many upon his demise, but I felt that he died a really noble and hunourable death. It was a crucial step in the plot, to emphasise his courage and how he sacrificed himself for his little sis. It's really touching and made the team look at him in a new light. And with his death, comes the tear-jerking note to Heather which, in my opinion, was essential because he came clean to her and is remembered as a totally different person.

And thus, despite the tears shed, I feel that his death was very necessary. A sad ending that wanted to make us fans gouge our eyes out? Will, yes. But was it a satisfying, complete and honourable conclusion to his life? For that, I would say DEFINITELY.

Any thoughts on Dagur's possible comeback in the last season?
