The strongest character Percy Jackson is Nico. He is so resilient throughout the books and his life was very miserable. Will really made it better. Also guys he was just 11 or sumn when he had to go through all the misery.

Considering the Percy Jackson timeline in general, Hades probably brought Nico and Bianca out of the hotel in response to Percy being claimed as a son of Poseidon.

He honestly imo dealt with the worst of it. He had to go through losing his sister who was the only person he truly trusted, he literally survived Tartarus ALONE and at freakin age 11 like bruh I think even Percy mentioned that he would’ve died in Tartarus if not for Annabeth, and Nico was forced by Cupid into coming out and had to learn to accept himself for who he was. Also he experienced the loss of Jason particularly hard because they were pretty close friends (he was the first to know about Nicos sexuality) and Nico was devastated. You can’t see someone going through all of that and surviving and not call them strong.

TYSM! My friends were telling me that Leo and Nico's backstories aren't that sad, and I sent them these videoes. Love it!

Nico is my favorite because he dealt with so much pain and so young, he’s amazing

Knowing uncle Rick you'll be making a part 3 once that book about Nico and Will comes out.

Yes my life is one filled with tragedy and sorrow.

when you fully know you're going to cry if you watch this, but you watch it anyways. also nico is so awesome and strong, he's my fave character

Loved it! Nico is one of my nephew’s favorite characters too!

Yep. And that's why the entire fandom, (or most of it) wants to protect him. Great video!

He was 10 when he lost his sister :(

5:53 i'm only just now realizing how much this must have hurt on so many different levels, like, percy's falling into tartarus, but he's falling on purpose to be with his girlfriend... oof

Nico is the best character by far!!

Nico is my second favorite, right after Thalia, then my third is Rachel. (Edit: Nico’s now my absolute favorite in both of the series’! He’s so strong and I love him!)

Nico is so sad😭 You did such a good job presenting everything

Nico and Leo are my favorite. Glad you did a video on them!!!

Nico is my 3rd favorite character behind Leo and Percy

Percabeth:* arrives from HELL* The rest of the seven: *fussing over them* Nico: …wow Me: BRO

Thank you for this video, I was rather young when I read the books (I still am)so I misunderstood the part about Nico having a crush on Percy and thought that he had a crush on Annabeth.

"That's rough, buddy."

Can't wait for Nico and Will's adventures in Tartarus in Rick's and Oshiro's next book

This was so perfect!

I loved it ! Nico is amazing 👍

Nico will always be my favourite character no matter how many characters I see ever I love him I might be biased just because he’s my half brother but I still love him I think Nico is so powerful and resilient his powers are insane and amazing and his story is so sad to me

Fun facts Nico is the nickname of Nicolò in Italian

I’m telling u my fave characters in order. 1 is the highest 1 Nico🤍☠️💀 2 Leo 🔧🔥 3 Thalia 🏹🌙 4 piper💋❤️ 5 Annabeth 🦉 6 Percy 🌊🧜🏼‍♂️

wellll when u put it THAT way its honestly rly sad

nico is one of my favorite characters

brb, crying

The fact that the god of misery itself can't even make him more miserable is breaking my heart. He'll always be my favorite, no matter what.

Please do a part two

This was so depressing 😭

came here when this man blew up in Tiktok- and damn im so late to the Percy fandom T_T

Nico is the best

at the end annabeth rly said "same bestie"

Question, are you trying to capture the vibe MovieFlame's videos have? Same bg music, same tone of voice, similar way of explaining things... I don't mind it, it's just something that I noticed when I started watching.

TRAGIC Would be a Horrible Understatment

Why at 7:18 does it look like Reyna is wearing a can instead of a chest plate

Oh yeah my past

@Movie Flame is this you're child?

I have a crush on Nico.

Updated version in 2023 - (The Sun and the Star) Nico meets Nyx as well as sees her Mansion of Night for what it really is.

He is such an amazing character but his life is so depressing

I don't really know where to comment this, but I've sort of found two minor errors with adapting Greek myth in the book that have to do with the underworld 1. "Isles of the Blessed" is another name for Elysium. They're the same thing. 2. Reincarnation using the Lethe doesn't seem like something that was widely believed back in ancient Greece, the only mention of the river being used in reincarnating souls was Virgil's account of the underworld. Virgil was a Roman author, not a Greek one, so it only applies to Roman demigods and legacies? And I have no idea where Riordan got the "three reincarnations" thing.

Why do I cry while what hing this video?

Rick Riordan should be granted by the gods with a huge favor

when does nico find out he's italian cause I can't remember and i really wanna know

How many movies do they have about this series?

How should I read the books in order

If I had a nickel for every time I crushed on a traumatized guy from the 40s, I’d have 2 nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice, right?

This may get me unpopular with some of the fandom, but Bianca is really shitty. I mean she literally decides to ditch her brother, who's 10 at most in a camp full of people she doesn't know to join a bunch of immortal girl strangers and forever forsake men. He's the only family she has, and she's all he has. Yet she just decides to willingly be a hunter, after being told not only that she'll be immortal so she'll outlive her brother and see him die a old man at best, that she'll not be able to see him for 99.999% of the time, and that she'll never get a chance to grow up or find love. And she decides to take a stranger girls and a self proclaimed goddess word for being able to visit him every now and then, which she should know that as immortals who especially detest men and camp, means likely once every 50 years. Thalia nearly joined, but upon realising she would have to leave Luke and Annabeth, both of whom like Nico have no family to rely on and would be utterly devastated if she left, she declined. She even only joins the hunters to escape the prophecy since she knows she's not the right person. Zoe joined since she was banished from her home and cast out of her family, and betrayed by Hercules who left her for dust. Bianca joined because she was a selfish horrible sister, who at 12/13 forever turned her back on her brother.And it's not like she shows herself to be a good person, she gladly hangs out with her fellow hunters at every turn, never spending anytime with Nico while at camp, despite this potentially being the last time she'll see him in his lifetime, she tells Nico she's joining the hunters and leaving him with not even apologetic tone or any remorse, for breaking his heart at knowing his sister just wants to be rid of him, she admits to Percy later it was just because she was sick of him and wanted to be by herself, and that since Percy is there it's fine, dumping the role onto Percy.Then she causes the automaton to awaken, and although it was for Nico and she does sacrifice herself doing something good, she is really bland and boring as a character.Then, she chooses rebirth and just says fuck you to Nico getting to see her again, since at best when Nico dies and she dies, he'll go to Elysium for all the good deeds he did for the greek world and demigods, while she'll go to Asphodyl at best since she likely wouldn't be reborn as a demigod so do nothing heroic, which is how you go to Elysium by doing really good things, as opposed to living a life where you are good by never doing anything actually bad, but never actually doing anything good/heroic which is Asphodyl.She's one of my least favourite characters, because she is very bland and unlikeable for leaving Nico like that, and then never even regrets leaving him.

Omg

Personally, I think Nico's fatal flaw wasn't holding grudges, but rather self loathing. He seemed to go out of his way to be miserable and alone, because he felt that as a son of Hades and a homosexual (From a time an place where that wasn't acceptable) he is suppose to have a bad life.

What's Percy Jackson movie is Nico in

He my NO. 1 favorite character! It's just kind of sad how much Persephone bullied him, and he decided to stay in Hades and deal with it to advise his father. The only time Bianca ever used her power as a Hades demigod was when she killed the skeleton with her hunter knife. Imagine how powerful she would have become! I kind of wished

Bianca is his ol-ger.. sister??????? 0:18

Uncle Rick needs to lay off of Leo and Nico, and do more ✨ SOLANGELO ✨

Percy and annabeth remainder of me and piper

Yasss nico is king this is really random but does anyone else have a crush on Percy like the hot version in there head? Pol

It’s Eros not Cupid

HOTTAKE WARNING: Nico isn't tragic, at least at first: His sister dying wasn't that big of a deal, Nico WAYYY over reacted sure after that alot of bad stuff happened but he only went emo gothic weird kid when Bianca died. He is way overrated the fandom treats him like a baby angel even tho he is half evil (until the un and the star)
