^^ this!!

jason’s and reyna’s parts in rhe titan war are scarcely mentioned in hoo but ykw? so are percy’s and annabeth’s. their roles in the war are mentioned briefly to give context but that’s essentially it. the fandom has a tendency to put one character over another even while blatantly ignoring canon. percy’s achievements seem larger in comparison to jason’s because we, as readers, were there to see it. we saw the struggle and the power it took to defeat kronos because the entire war, from the very beginning, was written in percy’s perspective. readers understand the struggle percy and annabeth went through to defeat luke’s army, but we have no idea what it was like for jason and reyna. this makes it more difficult to sympathize with their efforts, making percy (unjustly, since they are all of equal glory and strength) seem like the greater hero. none of the seven (+nico and reyna) is stronger than the other. they all have their feats and strengths but at the end of the day, they were the only nine heroes worthy of this quest. juno herself handpicked them because they were the best. not in comparison to one another, and definitely not in comparison to percy. the entire point of the prophecy is that they are a team. seven half-bloods shall answer the call.

jason's whole 'fighting a titian with his bare hands' is hardly mentioned in heroes of olympus and i firmly believe its because rick didn't want jason to see powerful and we see that with hazel & nico to their accomplishments are pushed to the side to make percy seem better percy is extremely powerful and has great feats and accomplished many things even gods haven't but hazel literally took down gaea and jason fought a titain with his bare hands when he was 14/15 its like the seven (frank, jason, and hazel especially) never get to see there fully potential because no one can be better than percy
