Jason Grace is one of the most divisive characters in the entire Heroes of Olympus series — praised for his power, but criticised for being bland, underdeveloped, and overshadowed by Percy Jackson. In today’s video, I take a deep dive into why Jason didn’t work as a character, what went wrong in his writing, and how I’d personally fix Jason Grace to make him more compelling, more human, and more emotionally resonant.
From his amnesia introduction, to his perfectionism, to the forced dynamics with Piper and the constant comparison to Percy, Jason’s story ends up feeling hollow — despite the massive potential in his Roman heritage, his SPQR identity, and his unique weapon.
In this essay, I break down Jason’s flaws, explore the missed opportunities in The Lost Hero and Heroes of Olympus, and propose a rewritten arc that gives him the depth, conflict, and agency he deserved.
If you’re a fan of Percy Jackson, Heroes of Olympus, worldbuilding essays, mythic storytelling, or character-driven analysis, this video is for you. Let’s give Jason Grace the story he deserved.
