Look, you are going to have 20 hours of young Hiccup, and for a twenty year old viking, he is still pretty scrawny. Yes he is not quite as geeky, but when does he act awkward in the tv series? This is just Hiccup after five years of succesfully running the Dragon Academy, so he has gotten pretty confident and courageous. Also, there is no point in being unhappy with him aging. You will just have to get used to it, and when you do you will like it. It actually took me a while to get used to the red tailfin on Toothless, but now I think the brown one looks odd. So just accept that he is aging (which is realistic. He can't stay young forever) and start thinking of all the ridiculously cool positives that will come from this. So many new plot doors are open, and it will make the second one extremely unique. There is no way that it will feel like just a long Riders of Berk episode because it is going onto the same epic scale as the film. They are keeping the same serious and realistic feel that made the first movie so great. Hiccup will not have changed much in his personality. And it will be great to see this older Hiccup having the same manerisms and voice as the young one. I think it is a tricky idea, but if DreamWorks does a good job with it, it will make on AMAZING second step in Hiccup's story!
