in chronological order it goes: HTTYD 1/ Riders of Berk/ Defenders of Berk/ Gift of the Night Fury/ Dawn of the Dragon Racers/ Race to the Edge/ HTTYD 2 / HTTYD 3/ HTTYD Homecoming/ The Nine Realms/

Rescue Riders doesn’t really fit in so that doesn’t count much. also Homecoming isn’t available in the East Cost and maybe some other areas but idk. i was unable to find Gift of the Night Fury anywhere. Finally, the only true canon parts are the three httyd movies and the others are just kind of for fun

Chronologically? First movie, then riders/defenders of berk (Amazon prime), then the shorts and race to the edge, and then the second and third. Both of the tv shows happen between the first and second movies

Everything but the riders/defenders show can be found on netflix

But what about the books?

if you are looking for a complete and comprehensive list of all the content within the series and its order, then do I have the list for you!

It's like how Zealous said, but Legend of the Boneknapper and Book of Dragons could also take place during Riders/Defenders of Berk, as they come across and discover the dragons seen in the short. For example, they record Changewings into the manual in Gem of a Different Color, whereas they have detailed pages for it in the short.

Actually you could watch the show after 2nd Movie as it was made after the second movie but personally i think it would make more sense to watch it in the order of events instead of release order.

I don't consider HTTYD nine realms a series to watch it's kinda bad

Everyone seems to be replying in chronological order instead of release order.. It's helpful if you want to understand when each part takes place, but isn't the "proper" way to watch it considering most fans would have watched it in release order as the series was still ongoing.

I wrote out this list for myself when I got into it:

1. How to Train Your Dragon (2010 Movie)
2. Legend of the Boneknapper Dragon (2010 Short)
3. Gift of the Night Fury (2011 Short)
4. Book of Dragons (2011 Short)
5. DreamWorks Dragons: Riders of Berk (Season 1 of the 2012-2018 Series)
6. DreamWorks Dragons: Defenders of Berk (Season 2 of the 2012-2018 Series)
7. How to Train Your Dragon 2 (2014 Movie)
8. Dragons: Dawn of the Dragon Racers (2014 Short)
9. Dragons: Race to the Edge (Seasons 3-8 of the 2012-2018 Series)
10. How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World (2019 Movie)
11. How to Train Your Dragon: Homecoming (2019 Short)
12. How to Train Your Dragon: Snoggletog Log (2019 Short)*

*Snoggletog Log doesn't have much of a plot. It's a Yule Log TV special, so the program is essentially a fireplace with characters occasionally coming in and out of frame doing cute things. There are condensed versions that show all of the little events that happen in it without the empty runtime.

The first section of the series (Riders/Defenders of Berk) bridges part of the gap between HTTYD 1 and HTTYD 2. The second section (Race to the Edge) seeks to do the same, only Hiccup and the gang are older teenagers and it is a lot closer to the second movie timeline-wise.

2008 : Kung Fu Panda

2010 : How to Train your Dragon

Two of the best animation films with a lot of heart

How to Train Your Dragon and Kung Fu Panda 2 a year later showed that DreamWorks can awe and touch audiences the same way Pixar does.

This was one of the best animated films from DreamWorks and it still is. Okay, it's not quite the best from them since The Wild Robot exists now, but even so, there's no doubt that this is such a great film overall - and frankly, that live-action remake seems rather useless.

Easily a top 5 DreamWorks movie! Still remember the day I saw this in theaters. Movie holds up real well too.

I’m going to say it: this is probably my favorite non-Disney computer animated film ever.

I remember not thinking highly of the trailers but my dad wanted to go. Then the reviews came out, and it really piqued my curiosity. Went to a last minute IMAX 3D showing (as in I got picked up and told “we’re going come with!”) and it was honest to God magic. Easily one of my favorite theatre experiences ever and one of the most worthy IMAX 3D presentations ever. It really spoke to me in a way very few films ever had, especially from non-Disney studios. I was really rooting for it to win Best Animated Feature but alas it didn’t. All these great films from DreamWorks later and I’d still consider this their best.

I still adore these films to this day. I rewatch the trilogy once a year, got a Toothless plush up above me as I type, and the section of Epic Universe I’m most looking forward to is Berk. I might cry meeting Toothless as these movies did have that impact on me, plus you know, Toothless.

Yes the website is correct! Enjoy your HTTYD adventure!

The website is wrong about 1 thing. HTTYD 2 is on netflix and also you'll love it if you watch the tv series and the movies. You might just be our new r/httyd regular redditor.

Currently rewatching

First movie / 3 shorts bonenapper, book of dragons, gift of night fury / season 1 riders of berk / Season 2 defender of berk / Short dawn of dragon racers / Season 3-8 race to the edge / Second movie / Third movie / Short sheep chronicles / Short dragon homecoming / Short snoggletog log /

you can find that movie in full HD in Trailers(dot)TO

It was a hell of a ride on this journey with everyone, but it was a shame to have ended this way we all have split paths but, in the future, it shall be remembered.

How To Train Your Dragon

Legend Of The Boneknapper

Gift Of The Night Fury

Book Of Dragons

Riders Of Berk

Defenders Of Berk

Dawn Of The Dragon Racers

Race To The Edge

HTTYD2

The Hidden World

Homecoming

Where did the pinned post made by the mods go? It was saying the order.

Everytime this is asked I'm amazed at the apparent lack of ability to search that people have

like is it really that hard?

I’d say “HTTYD1”, then the short “Gift of the Night fury”, then “dragon legends” which is the “book of dragons” and “legend of the boneknapper”, after that “riders of berk” then “defenders of berk” both a series, then “dawn of the dragon racers” another short, then “race to the edge” a series with 6seasons, then “HTTYD2” and then “HTTYD3” and finally another Christmas short “homecoming”

HTTYD 1.
Shorts : Gift of the Night fury, Legend of the Boneknapper, Book of Dragons.
Riders of berk.
Defenders of berk
How to train your dragon 2
Short: Dawn of the Dragon racers.

Race to the Edge

How to train your dragon 3
Short: HTTYD Homecoming.

This is the release order, and also the correct order to watch it in so that everything makes sense. The big one is Race to the Edge, which takes place before HTTYD 2, but references things that happen during HTTYD 2 a couple of times. You "need" to watch race to the edge knowing what happens during HTTYD 2.

Plus the bonus part is Race to the Edge is an excellent TV series in its own right, and it's my favorite part of the entire franchise.

First movie, riders of berk, defenders of berk, race to the edge, movie 2, movie 3. Gift of the night fury i think the Christmas special when hiccup is still young is in between movies 1 and race to the edge. And the most recent Christmas special is after movie 3

ive only seen the movies and the race to the edge but heres an order of what i watch 1st movie first then dragons race to the edge then 2 then 3 then at last httyd homecoming

I'd argue gotnf is before the series because they learn meatlug is female in the short and they all use she/her for meatlug in the series

Movie 1 Shorts Riders of Berk Race to the Edge Movie 2 Movie 3 Homecoming

If this does well I’m sure Megamind is next on the agenda for DreamWorks live-action remakes

The last animated one grossed $50M+ in China, but that was pre-COVID.

Hi there! Welcome to the fandom! So, I personally watched the three movies first and then the specials/tv shows because I wasn’t sure if I was going to bother with the shows (I’m personally glad I did though!).

However, if you’re looking to watch the movies/tv shows in chronological order, I believe that it’s in this order:

• How To Train Your Dragon (movie)
• Legend of the Boneknapper Dragon (short)
• Book of Dragons (short)
• Gift of the Night Fury (short)
• Riders of Berk (20 episodes)
• Defenders of Berk (20 episodes)
• Dawn of the Dragon Racers (short)
• Race to the Edge (6 seasons, Netflix)
• How To Train Your Dragon 2 (movie)
• How To Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World (movie)
• How To Train Your Dragon: Homecoming (short)

The three shorts between the first film and Riders of Berk, you could probably watch in any order to be honest - I don’t think it makes much of a difference.

Homecoming is set before the last five minutes of the Hidden World, but I’d recommend watching it after the Hidden World for obvious reasons!

There is also a thing called “Snoggletog Log” but it’s not really 100% canon - it’s literally just 28 minutes of a fireplace in the Haddock home, and the characters pop on screen from time to time to do some stuff.

I hope that helps, and I hope that you enjoy watching everything!

Just saying, some parts of the fandom are REALLY vocal against THW, but you should still watch it to make up your mind yourself.
