theirs nothing more based then our lil chad
[...]
you know she likes getting her hair pulled and name called
Is that a recent thing? I remember black girls who dated white guys being just a normal thing like latinas who date whites, now it's some kind of spicy taboo like blacked.
Nah it's just a raceplay thing, and half of Cinemaphile is racist you should see the WMBF threads. But unlike blacked bs most of the guys referencing it are either memeing or just find the idea of having a black gf that's into getting dominated hot. And with none of the weird cuck shit and other guy dick comparison bs or talk of genocide
It's seems to have developed in response to all the Blacked/BBC spam.
It's also more wholesome, from what I've seen. Where Blacked is 90% focused on the humiliation of white men and degradation of white women, Bleached is primarily focused on white men and non-white women enjoying each other.
>Frida is attached to his hip >Hilda: “David…I need you.” moments before he saves her >Kaisa grooming him behind the scenes >Even the Marras are now flirting with him
I know he won but which one won him?
Just finished watching the season finale and this is the only correct answer. He’s approaching rizz levels not seen since some of Peter Parker’s earlier days.
On that note, does anyone have any recommendations for other shows, movies and/or games to play that have the same level of comfiness that Hilda has? Still badly sick with Covid on top of my chronic health issue so I have time to kill.
Frida will be his first gf, but they're 13, so it won't last long. Then Twintails when he's a couple of years older and he'll lose his virginity to her. Then once he's around 20, he marries Kaisa.
>Shy boy adventurer >has a crush on a girl he has no shot with due to the age gap >Has rivalry with a mean girl he stands up to >mean girl ends up attracted to him
I've seen this before
Kaisa or Twintails, gotta be
That ending was totally there because David's still been hanging out with Kaisa behind the scenes and the Marras and he have kept in touch
David doesn't hang out with other boys so Hilda and Frida ended up his more platonic best friends, Kaisa feels like someone he hangs out with when he's just by himself and not as a group
Still gott say hilda is the best choice overall
Despite the /ss/ memes, someone around his age is still the best choice, espcially when its someone she got to know on screen
And hilda being such an opposite of david but still getting along is still a super sweet dynamoc
Ok so what does this mean? Like I thought this was just grills going through a phase but here they are as adults still being marras. Do the people not care? Are marras just like humans? This raises more questions than answers
The Marras are like 17-18. >Like I thought this was just grills going through a phase but here they are as adults still being marras
If they are like folklore Marras, they keep being Marras until marriage.
Not perfect, but honestly it was a worthy successor to the previous two seasons + movie extension. Glad I was able to see this series through to more or less completion, even if threads for it might become extremely scarce.
Absolutely. There were a few missed opportunities that made me wish the season had 13 episodes instead of 7 and an extended episode but it was a very comfy season and show as a whole from start to finish. Sad that it’s finished but I’m glad with what we got and am relieved it didn’t overstay its welcome like other animated shows tend to do. Praying that we get a DVD / Blu-Ray set at some point though. Would have loved to have seen more of Hilda using a sword though
seen the previews and got that same feeling in my gut as when I watch trailers for modern games and movies. a lot of people haven't noticed this but the clown world we live in has gone up a notch and everyone (you included) has begun worshipping infantilism - a cancer that has taken over 99% of the media and Hilda season 3 looks to me to be another victim if you'll pardon my schizo ramblings.
nta but for me it's because Hilda is a grown woman in season 3 and I prefer prepubescent female protagonists. The thought of Frida and Hilda putting tampons in their vegana disgusts me. If I don't watch season 3, the two will simple stay young and pure. Simple as that.
I wish we got a season before this one. With Hilda and friends grown up and exploring more about their world and lore. A bit of a breathe of fresh air before the drama that was coming this final season.
It's not as good as the first two seasons and doesn’t really top The Mountain King Movie as a conclusion to the series.
The trolls have been the antagonists from the beginning of the show, it makes sense to have a concluding movie about them. Hilda gets to see things from trolls’ perspective, reconcile things with her mum and change the culture of Trollburg. That’s everything the series was going for wrapped in a big bow, the movie is a great conclusion.
On the other hand, in season 3 the location of Tofoten, Aunty Astrid and all the fairy shit seem to just come out of nowhere. Suddenly the show wants me to feel this is all very important stuff, but I don’t really buy is because it was never established, referred to, or set-up in the first place.
Anyway, I love Hilda so I’m glad they got to do what they wanted even if I don’t really like season 3. Also, frick Hilda’s dad. I’m going to marry Johanna and give little Hilda all the love in the world.
It might have been in the comic, there's a moment where Johanna suddenly gets creeped out by a hill that resembles a fairy mound and it's literally never brought up again in the Stone Forest graphic novel
Maybe there was a desire from Luke to do a cool story with fairies, but honestly what we got wasn't that great. It's my understanding that season 3 is the only season that’s not some sort of adaptation of the comic, but rather the story book tie-in, which was a collaboration between Luke Pearson, Stephen Davies and Sapo Lendário.
I don't mind that the Netflix show takes what it wants from the comic and adds too it, I think most of the additions in seasons 1 & 2 are great. But there is a big difference when it comes to taking a comic with a pre-established world, lore and characters and adapting it with little add-ons, and coming up with COMPLETELY NEW locations (Toften), characters (Astrid) and story lore (Faries).
It’s what makes season 3 weaker than the other seasons, they could rely on the comic for stability, while the final season just feels like it goes out on its own limb to try and be interesting and doesn’t really meet the mark.
Boring movie tho. But I agree that I wish they foreshadowed the fairy stuff more in the past.
So far the only thing I can think of is Hilda's affinity to fly, whenever is on a woff or by magic.
>Boring movie tho.
Boring in content or execution? It defiantly has a different pace compared to the episode lengths. but personally, I think the movie did a great job building atmosphere around the trolls and their strange world. it takes its time introducing it, but I know that could seem boring to some.
Hilda Season 3 is what's called a "post-script season", basically it's when the show wrapped up its story but the network renews it for one more season anyway so the writers have to scramble back to write extra content and storylines past the intended endpoint.
Examples include Babylon 5, Agents of Shield, and The Flash.
>The Flash
What would you say was the post-script season?
Probably after COIE, the thing is there was a lot of foreshadowing and cb lore to explore but what seemed like a mixed bag before that became a rotten batch after.
Or maybe the entire CWverse should've been over with it.

I wish there were more shows willing to pull from folklore than DnD fantasy shit. and keep things small scale, no saving the world from evil wizards or dragons, just someone getting into trouble with local folklore creatures.
My issue is that everyone does DnD fantasy, I'm tired of the same old elves, dwarves, goblins thing repeated. I want to see more shows drawing from other mythologies.
Hilda is literally from Norse/Germanic European mythology. The problem is that D&D is from most European folklores so obviously most of European folklores and mythologies that appear in shows are going to have D&D reference, because D&D reference is European myth and folklore

But that is not the point. The point was to do something else outside of the same old game fantasy that always appears in western media. It's not just stakes. It's both of these things.
David and Frida has no reason to be in that movie and Erik became a good guy because "yes".
Once again, I wish we saw more of the old characters this last season. What's Erik now up tho? He became a buddhist monk and lives alone in a hill now? Or probably got a new job and is cleaning toilets?
Erik was a good guy in the book, they gave his good scene with the berries from the book to the nameless black patrol officer too. He's in the end credits wearing a Hawaiian shirt. Erik is having a good time
Couldn't possibly rank them, honestly. I'm thinking right now and every season has things I adore and things I find a little mid. Ranking singular episodes may be easier actually.
So what’s eveyone’s Top 3 episodes then? I don’t remember the exact names of them but mine are: >The one in S2 where David becomes brave. >The S2 Tidemice one. >Finale of S3 but maybe it’s because that one is still fresh in my mind. Might be something else later on.
Mine are:
3) The Bird Parade
2) The Train to Tofoten
1) The Deerfox
I loved the first 2 episodes of Hilda, but Bird Parade was somehow the one that really struck me.
Train to Tofoten was somewhat melancholic to me. I also loved Geat-aunt Astrid and the scene with the Wofs at the end was amazing.
And The Deerfox... well, I probably don't need to say anything.
Mountain King/Fairy Isle I consider a bit unfair since they're movies.
I always loved the show most when it felt like three little kids exploring a big magic city full of mysteries, those episodes were perfect. Trollberg is a really pretty setting and the best stories are the ones set inside of it >The Nightmare Spirit, when they're exploring to find the Rat King and David's Marra >The Yule Lads, played like a fairy tale about Hilda befriending evil krampus monsters with her childhood kindness >The Jorts Incident (same as you), for some reason that last half of them playing Ghostbusters now that Kaisa's their friend was too comfy
Season 1 will always be my favorite season. I like how storylines that would seem boring like going to a school open house or cleaning a room are actually really fun thanks to the kids' likable personalities.
Her changes would’ve been too small to notice. At least thanks to her 1 more giant went free a long time ago >“maybe I’ll plant it a little closer to home this time”
Woodman’s older than he sounds. Given he implies he looks after the ancient trees in Hilda’s book.
I bet if Hilda had walked all the way to his house in Mountain King he’d know how to change her back. Like how he knew about the elves but just never told them
But then Woodman says he might have been thinking of a seperate tree and they could have actually had a chance at changing the past, kind of felt like a dig at multiverse stories
>But then Woodman says he might have been thinking of a seperate tree
I think the reason it burned is because it's the same tree in all dimensions. If it burn in one, it burns in all.
although it would still burn if it was just the regular past. If it was burning in Hilda's present then the surrounding woods would've also been on fire when they got there.
Could've been they just needed a workaround to avoid the Time Worm plot
>If it was burning in Hilda's present then the surrounding woods would've also been on fire
It's relatively isolated from the other tree and/or might have just received the consequence of burning without burning itself.
thanks bro eh I kept redrawing david then said frick it lol. I felt he kept being too big but most of my mistake was trying to do Hilda in a different style than the show. But happy you like it
>Spoiler

so hot. could you draw David making her dream come true?
Ha maybe really need ya to be more specific though
>shirt slightly pulled up

Yeah I felt it gives way to the whole slob thing and felt like hilda. Also funny to me the stomach scratch could also read as hilda reaching in her pants in the horny one.
But yeah if you guys have any request shoot em I'm low on ideas myself.
>Yeah I felt it gives way to the whole slob thing and felt like hilda.
It really does, it's a shame the actual show didn't have any scenes with Hilda sleeping like this because it fits with her being a "wild child".
That it definitely does, really at times you forget how wild of a child hilda is. It's why I like the autist hilda ideas of her being ignorant of most normal people stuff and being behind in school.
how about make her almost the same view: Hilda wide open in bed, but she's ahegao-ing with half of David's shmeat in her. You would only see his arms wrapped around Hilda's waist and a little icon of David moaning. Some cum and/or bulge would be the cherry on the top
Hmmmm not a terrible idea, I'll see what I can do.
She didn't even bother getting under the covers either, I noticed in the 3rd episode of s3 when she falls out of her bed after her nightmare, it's still perfectly made so it looks like she wasn't using them that time either.

this is cute anon sorry I missed it happy it inspired you to green. In my head it was more hilda clinging to david but david is just sleep. He does grab her hand when she tries to hug him though.
I feel their weren't any real cry moments for me but when that end song with lyrics cut in at the end of S3. idk man something about knowing it was over and the new end song and credits. Truly felt like the end of an era I didn't cry but I feel if I was younger I would have but it pulled a lot on my heart strings. I hope Hilda isn't a outlier and more kino and comfy shows and really overall good series come around. I feel we've gotten a lot of animated series that were by the numbers and really just didn't hit right no matter the genre recently but Hilda is one of those that stood out among the average and became peak it had soul.
Amphibia still has the most genuinely bittersweet ending out of all the modern cartoons but Hilda has the most consistent and satisfying run through and through.
>Amphibia still has the most genuinely bittersweet ending out of all the modern cartoons
It was way too maudlin for my liking. It tried be super sad and emotional and only nailed that atmosphere maybe once(Sprig and Anne separation), but it had already clumsily tried to pull at the heartstrings before that to the point that should have been a really good moment was undercut.
I honestly don't think it is a particularly good finale, but at least it didn't trainwreck itself like some shows.
What makes Amphibia distinct from other series is that it didn't cop out at the end, they actually do seperate and the original Anne might really be dead.
Even Hilda, as much as I loved it, does pull the cop out during dramatic moments card thrice (Twig leaving with his kind then he doesn't, Johanna dies then she doesn't, Astrid was going to sacrifice herself and then she doesn't)
Tbf with Hilda, it had already received closure in the Mountain King, which wrapped up the overarching story about the growing threat of the trolls.
The show then got unexpectedly renewed for season three which Luke and the crew were not expecting at all so they had to pull the fairyline storyline out of their ass. So what we got at the actual end was just the Mountain King's ending again but with all the show's characters time present at the Great Raven Parade.

There's the graphic novels, which was the original source material, then the Netflix show adaptation, and then the tie-in novels which are abridged retellings of the show's episodes but they also change and add scenes that shift the characterization like Frida and David are apparently more antagonistic to Hilda in that version.

In the books, David and Frida have a falling out with Hilda as soon as their first adventure together. They reconcile but still shit on Hilda for screwing up their attempts to get scout badges.
Also Johanna straight up doesn't approve of Hilda's adventures and there's even a moment where she shames her for not being normal and getting any badges to show for being a sparrow scout.

Realistic. Women will shame their kids for not being what is considered ‘normal’, or just what is socially acceptable at the time. Even if the child is neurodivergent ie they’re different by default and can’t help it, they’ll shame them anyway with no ounce of compassion for their own blood. Anyone who goes against the grain is a freak to them.
I’m not the sort of person to cry during things like this, but if something has an ending like Hilda does and makes me feel melancholic I’ll go for a 10km run to take my mind off of it followed up by an hour with my punching bag if I need it. And this series has definitely goes on that list.
3 times.
I cried with Deerfox. I cried after finishing the Fairy Mound, but it was more about the realization that I was on the final season than the episode itself. And then I cried at the final scene of the finale, beacause it really sunk in that this was it.
They did her right in the show, a loving mother who’d do anything for her daughter and loves her dearly, but has to contend with how hard it is to be a single mother. I love her.
It's even more impressive since Hilda is one of the few animated shows where the voice cast generally don't record their lines together, even before COVID hit, but the acting still feels natural and has a smooth flow
With his taste in music I would not be surprised if he had on his Walkman songs from Nickelback and/or Backstreet Boys, which isn’t the worst thing in the world
>Lost her parents and memories >Deadbeat husband ran off on her >Had to raise Hilda alone and deal with her adventurers >Has to fight off all sorts of monsters to protect Hilda
Is Johanna the best cartoon mom? She has it pretty rough but still does her best to look after her little girl
>Why couldn't Astrid have been the one to take Johanna's place when it was time to fulfill the ten year deal instead of her parents?
>Were Hilda's grandparents actively trying to null the deal? Why were they attempting to lore and suddenly following and interfering with Hilda's adventures after the fairy mound incident?
>1
Because that's asking too much of her and the Spirit probably wouldn't have accepted Astrid. >2
I don't think they were trying to null the deal, just keeping an eye on their granddaughter. Otherwise Lydia wouldn't have flown away from Johanna.
>>Why couldn't Astrid have been the one to take Johanna's place when it was time to fulfill the ten year deal instead of her parents?
The Authority (whatever its actual name is) clearly said they didn't care for Astrid presence in the Fairy Land. Her life, on the other hand, was enough of a bargain, but I suppose that back then Astrid didn't really consider killing herself. Can't really blame her for that.
> Why were they attempting to lore and suddenly following and interfering with Hilda's adventures
They weren't. While the show, for several episodes, frame them as apparently menacing, all they are really doing is having a look at their grand-daughter, simply wanting to know a bit more about her. They only interfere when Anders's life is in danger.
There was no deal nulled until Johanna actually reunite with her parents.
>While the show, for several episodes, frame them as apparently menacing, all they are really doing is having a look at their grand-daughter, simply wanting to know a bit more about her
They do call for Hilda to come to them and apparently did the same to Johanna in the past when she was a kid, even though the latter would have definitely voided the deal
Distant Lands and Fionna and Cake are spin-offs but they still feel like AT episodes but just with an extended runtime because the original show encompassed all sorts of characters and told all sorts of stories with them. >especially if their is massive quality dips
It's the opposite since F&C actually revatlized interest and was popular enough to get renewed on Max, the only other animated original on the network to do so was Jellystone
Merman was fun, albeit kind of annoying.
The multiverse episode with the tree and the giants ended on a message that felt like it was being written for something else, rather than the actual situation on hand.
>you need to unbraid it so wouldn't take a similar amount of time?
Do you know how easy it is to unbraid hair? remove the rubber band and it basically unfold on its own.
Her parents made a deal to stop her from dying from an illness, when she got back home the deal was void so the illness returned.
But then Van Gale agreed to take Johanna's place in the fairy island. So Van Gale "lost her life" kinda but no really since she wanted to live in the fairy isle anyway, and Johanna got her life back
Based. She's the best character in the show in my opinion. There's something very compelling about a single mother constantly at her wits end over having to always throw herself into danger to protect her overly adventurous daughter from supernaturally bullshit. She isn't some badass, she's just a mum who'll do anything to protect her loved ones despite how terrified and miserable she is.
Also she's sexy and precious and I want to give Hilda some half-siblings.
Wasn't expecting Season 3 to be a Johanna season but now I'm glad that it was. Introducing Hilda's father felt kind of pointless to me however and makes me question Johanna's taste in men.
Is it premature to call this show one of the best western cartoons of all time? Unless Pearson or Mercury make something even better, I don't see how the modern animation industry can beat it. At the very least it is a classic animated series now knowing it had a good ending.
I don't see why not. A lot of my favorite cartoons either have stinker endings, get outright cancelled or keep getting season after season to the point where I stop caring. Hilda is short and sweet with consistent output of good episodes and an appropriate sendoff. I'm glad that it's over though I do hope that the team who made Hilda can do something new in the future.
Definitely one of the best of modern times in terms of kid cartoons, but I think a few of the adult animated series recently surpass it
I’d say it’s definitely up there with the likes of Moomin Valley, Blinky Bill, Gravity Falls, etc. I.e. comfy and meant for kids but also contains slightly darker content that only adults will really understand and/or delve into themes that most other kid’s shows don’t want to address.
>chipper personality >simple yet iconic design >earworm-inducing musical number
Fish-man after the little furball's own heart
I liked how he never seemed insidious even when he "trapped" them, just really deprived for human company. I wouldn't be able to take him seriously if they did otherwise
To me he was like Luca Paguro mixed with the Genie from Aladdin, a Star Vs. the Forces of Evil character, Sebastian from The Little Mermaid (as he was an entertainer to the king of the sea) and Alastor from Hazbin Hotel.

Lol my response to another is right below you but yeah you aren't wrong. Hilda is going to get more than she bargains for and realize David is bigger and stronger than her. either she's getting full nelson'd mating pressed or hair pulled doggy style.
Thanks anon I wouldn't say amazing though lol, but yeah I'm surprised their aren't too many sketches being dropped. I've been practicing and prepping for the Hilda finale threads. This is us drawanons last chance for Hilda content making with the bois.
The best part of this is how she has to pull up her oversized t-shirt to show her ass
Yep, she wants to tease david unknowing now their are consequences.
That's David's. She tends to steal his clothes
Kek last thread I said something about how cute Braid/pj hilda was. I think I unintentionally started the simping for it. Like said nothings cuter than a girl in booty shorts and her bf's oversized shirt. Really it's funny how much bigger david is I can imagine that.

I also feel she kind of needs david as a spouse as he's the most willing to put up with her autismo and be there to support her in the things she's not good at so she can keep adventuring but also parent and be a functional adult.
I do like Hilda with her older kids she may have alienated and trying to connect with them on her own.
[...]
I see david more being a unwilling participant, he goes on adventures because he cares for hilda but not because he really likes them. But as S3 implies he kind of just accepts them and knows they will happen when he's around hilda but he still sticks around also probably to keep her from getting herself killed.
He'd probably be like Hilda's grandad and make them a cabin in the woods to live in during summer break so the kids can get some outdoors and camping experiences and hilda can enjoy her adventures. Also a way to help her unwind from living in the stuffy town.
If we're going with the "Hilda's child has the opposite personality and hobbies to her" scenario then yeah they would probably be much closer to David if he was the father while Hilda would be desperately trying to relate to their child or get them to come on adventures with her
Speaking of kids, how many kids do you think Hilda want to have? Are they going to have just one to two kids or go full Irish Catholic to have some tens children to filed in their cabin

I see her having two, but their is a lot of comedic potential for the typical two closer in age then one that's the youngest. Imagine she has a teen and preteen kid and then another that's a baby she always keeps in one of those kangaroo pouches.
But if it's Hilda and David, who knows they may really have some hot sweaty animalistic plapping til the room stinks sexo Hilda and David make a the loud house kek.
I kinda like the idea of Hilda's kid thinking their mum is a super adventurer badass. Until things really go bad and Hilda has to call on her own mum for save the two of them from something
Then Johanna goes full Ellen Ripley mode like she did against the spiderfrog
This sounds like a hilarious idea, but I'd also love for David to become a Clark kent type. Then one day he's at work or headed home just listening to lite rock in his chair, then hilda or the kids call him scared. He then proceeds to rip out of his good boy fit and go full rambo on whatever is hurting his family.
Be funny if Hilda's kids realize she's not even the most badass member of their family. It's just she hangs around a lot of tough and dedicated people that kept her from getting sent to the gulag as a kid.
Hilda being a fraud like hawk is kinda based to be honest and how she needs Johanna-SAMA for help
?si=48okWPdQAfRclmjc
This made me kek harder than it should have, also yeah I mean as much as we love Hilda she's set up to be a womanlet and really hasn't done much good in a fight. Even the giant slayer, she damn near killed woodsman and a village and the giant slayer was obviously younger than hilda and she almost lost.
>one of the things that seems to interest their kid is that hilda was an adventurer and the bravest person on the planet >the mystique is broken when she learns that the marra got her so scared she cried >when she gets into trouble her is to call johanna. further breaking the mental image of the bravest adventurer in trollberg >since david is david, she ends up idolizing grandmum johanna >the irony is not lost on hilda or david >in the end, hilda, david, and johanna all team up to rescue their kid after an 11-minute altercation with dangerous magical beings >hilda shows cleverness while david just beats things with a shovel, johanna has a gun >kid has newfound appreciation for hilda and david
I like this one as well, as I said above I do see a potential arc for Hilda's kids is either they like David more because well he's more normal and less autismo. Or they think he's too mild manner or lame then they learn their dad is a bit of a chad in a arc. I see the him punching some beast like stan pines punched the dinosaur.

No lie, that's the type of Tv dad we need actually Imagine a dad that's scared of all the mystery and lore stuff but unlike modern dad's in cartoons he's actually able to still be a badass when he needs to be and the responsible one without being pathetic or a complete coward.
Really would work well as it'd show a parent can still be cool, but human with fears and hesitation.

Wouldn't David but better as a great dad but isn't much of a adventurer like his wife?

He truly is our lil chad, also you are slightly off his girlfriends are..... >A Fairy >A trainee witch >A goth witch >A Marra >A single mom
>Goes from being scared of almost everything to only being scared of some things but says “frick it” and goes headfirst into trouble if his friends need him. >Also becomes alright with bugs
Absolute gigachad in the making.
No lie though he really grew into being a chad, really I saw some people talking about him being inconsistent and too different in the third season. I feel it makes sense after meeting hilda and learning to stand up for himself and gaining some confidence also fixing his friendship with Frida of course he'd be more bold and less soft spoken.
I kind of loved David being more vocal and playful it adds a layer to his character.
It's implied he'll be staying in Trollberg, but nothing about getting back with Johanna. So she's still single
She didn't show any interest in starting things back up with him either
I mean just because he'll be in hilda's life doesn't mean they'll get back together. But that would be a great ep idea if the series continued, imagine poor hilda trying to get her dad and johanna back together.
The fairy is gonna have to compete with a young witch, an older witch and a marra.
>Implying David isn’t going to have go to ground once the war between Kaisa, Twintails, Frida and Hilda hits its peak.
He might be a chad but with no superpowers of his own he could he in a precarious position.
Also on the topic of David being a chad: >Have a Covid-induced dream last night of encountering David in my most recent Pokémon: Rouge Emerald run. >Has a Yanma and a Ledyba. Beat him easily enough but he tells me I’ll regret it. >Encounter him as my final Elite Four fight. >Has a Yanmega, a Ledian that knows DynamicPunch that never misses, a Galvantula, a Volcarona, a Mega BeeBrill and a giant Butterfree which procedurally sweeps my team. >Get the “You have no more Pokémon left. You white out” message. >He’s there at the HQ and tells me I’d lost before I’d even started, then tells me better luck the next time we meet. >Dream proceeds as normal for a Covid one.
I literally thought in my dream after the first David encounter if I’d run into Frida and did think on the chances of them having a Misdrevous or Mismagius. I was also terrified Hilda would appear out of nowhere with the white Vulpix, Honchkrow (for the Great Raven) and a stacked team of game-cover legendaries.
So which theory do you prefer? >hilda's father died. >Hilda's father abandons Johanna when she was pregnant. >Johanna escaped from Hilda's father. >Johanna doesn't know who Hilda's father is. >magical pregnancy. >Hilda's father is Hilda's grandfather.
I've always liked the idea that Hilda's dad was a brave warrior/adventurer who had to leave his wife and daughter to stop some evil to keep them safe only to die/get trapped in the attempt. Bonus points if Johanna didn't know and thought he just abandoned her. Cliched maybe, but I think it would be a cool way of exampling why Hilda is so obsessed with adventures and weird shit.
I'm on episode 2 and my current theory is that Joanna was sexually assaulted by a fairy while she was in the mound and Hilda is half fairy. Seriously, the fairy stuff seems really spooky and Joanna was talking about it like she was raped by a group of them by how traumatised she was
How did they get away with this in the current year?

The problem with Amphibia is that 90% of the fandoms are just shipping the main trio. And it's not just for fun like here. It's an obsession that they take bloody seriously.
the trio are really good friends, you dont really feel angry at any combination of the three, or just all three, since they have really good dynamics with each other
and even if just two get together, they wouldnt leave the third one out

Kino episode otherwise, but that was a bit convenient, don't you think?
It's foreshadowing for Hilda and Johanna having magical heritage. They probably looked and smelled enough like fairies for the thing to think they were fairies.
Anyone else notice how weirdly good the animation got during the scene when Hilda found she was part fairy and got excited in the finale? I found there was a lot of shots in S3 that look much more cinematic than S1 and S2, especially in the final episode.
The animation for the show has always been great, a benefit of being produced by Mercury Filmworks rather than an offshore koream sweatshop and the two year gaps between seasons.
even in the casual scenes they're a lot more fluid and 3-dimensional. the series animation gets continually better throughout. S2 was better than 1, Mountain King better than 2, this season had better animation was Mountain King.
Because anon, they pussy out AND used 3D models that's why, this season has parts in 3D, its just stylized, something your small fry size brain cant comprehend.
>no anime references at all throughout this entire series
Is this the only modern western cartoon to do this, besides Genndy's stuff? I'm impressed the show never ditched it's folklore roots.
that and in general no references to modern culture. No dab, no memes, no modern movies or music.
Just couple of stuff like the reference to Ghostbusters but that's a classical movie.
I think that's why Hilda is so beloved; it didn't try to copy anime or pretend to be something it isn't. It's a show that knows what it is and works with it. It may have never been too popular but we're going to see it be considered a serious contender for the best western cartoons of all time and it'll remembered the same way other cult hits like Courage the Cowardly Dog are.
Pretty sure they actually do play modern music but it tends to be the very obscure kind that only has like 100 views on Youtube
https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQALBzTmG8J6iPz9VjfMyTl7iB8noHOyX&si=IsJIZP1BeKtqTP4U
What went right? How did they make a modern western cartoon that was consistent in quality from beginning to end? It may be the rare 10/10 I give to a show.
Here's a few to check out: >Yotsuba (2003): A cheerful, energetic five-year-old girl named moves into a new neighborhood with her adoptive father and enjoys life everyday.
Not an anime but worth checking out. You probably already know it though. >Gochuisa (2014): In a small European town, a host of young girls work at a rabbit cafe while living their daily lives.
The atmosphere and coziness is very similar to Hilda's, though this one may not be for you for various reasons. >Made in Abyss (2017): An explorer girl, a robot boy, and a rabbit-like thing explore the vast abyss in the depth of Earth.
A very (in)famous anime. You'll either love it or hate it. It can get gruesome. >Girls' Last Tour (2017): After an apocalypse, the last two girls of humanity traverse through what is left of their world while trying to survive to reach the top of the world.
My favorite anime of all time. Very melancholy and comfy in a Luke Pearson way. I recommend the manga as the anime doesn't cover the full story. The ending will make you cry. >Yuru Camp (2018): A group of high school girls go camping around Japan to visit various campsites.
I'm surprised this and Hilda don't overlap since they were released in the same year. Very comfy and cozy for a Hilda fan to like it. >Shadows House (2021): A mystery horror about a mansion doll and her shadow mistress counterpoint who both begin to unearth the dark secrets of their home.
The more European style and overarching story sounds like something a Hilda enjoyer would dig. >Frieren (2023): An immoral elf mage is left spending decades exploring and learning magic while her companions age and die. She embarks on a journey with the orphan of her dying companion to teach her magic.
Currently airing. The slow pacing and fantasy aspects might make you interested.
I mainly went for anime that have things similar to Hilda (characters, tone, pacing, style, atmosphere). I couldn't include everything, but these are the main ones.
Lol.
Lmao even.
S3 was good even though Pearson was partially against it.
Bald And Bankrupt wasted an opportunity on s2 AND they still begging for an s3.
>we live in the timeline where Hilda actually got a good ending and Molly is set to have a shit ending on top of a lackluster second season
it feels good
>we live in the timeline where Hilda actually got a good ending and Molly is set to have a shit ending on top of a lackluster second season

I actually liked molly but I can agree as soon as they added the boy Molly went pretty down hill, like I usually like my straight ships but he's just meh. The season itself just isn't as good as S1 and really I'd say most of molly's flaw was dropping it's main premise depressing/kind of evil ghost and good girl then it became just good girl and good ghost as the season progressed. Now without the rules scratch has become even less of a anti molly as he doesn't need to scare or anything. I remember when people speculated that Scratch would be forced to scare molly for his assignment. It lost a lot of it's edge and bite sadly now I really am not following the eps as dedicatedly as before.
I've heard this was fake, so until I see the ep I won't pay attention. But yeah everyone guessed it, the finale drops in like a month or so? we'll all see then.
I keep seeing this image a lot, I've never watched Molly and I really don't get what it means
Better to ignore it and either watch for yourself or just live in blissful ignorance.
A few people have already seen the finale and know the ending to the series. There's a high chance it gets leaked before the end of the year if the guy who has it gets the money for it. Either way, S3 is NOT happening.
>There's a high chance it gets leaked before the end of the year if the guy who has it gets the money for it.
What kinda loser is gonna be shelling out money to watch an episode a couple weeks early
Finished watching. Absolute kino. Glad I didn't have time to rewatch S2 and the movie first, meaning I have more Hilda to look forward to before Christmas. Yeah, I've seen it before, but it's been three years, so I forgot most of the details.
Finally was able to finish S3. I liked it a lot. I have to admit, it feels much more disconnected than previous seasons because of so many things revealed somewhat out of nowhere. The aunt, dad, and fairy. It was much more connected as a season though compared to others with a more central conflict and reoccurring themes.
It's still peak comfy and amazing. Finale was a little rough and somewhat rushed, but they did well with 8 episodes compared to the normal 13.
The Pooka is top tier.
I STILL can't believe I made a cameo in this show.
Speaking of which, could I perhaps borrow a spatula and a pair of crocs? For reasons I don't feel like explaining.
There's inevitably going to be a Cinemaphilentrarian backlash at some point where this board will pretend the show is overrated or was never good in the first place.
>didn't overstay it's welcome like Adventure Time or Loud House >didn't have a rushed second season like Gravity Falls >didn't have a bad second season like Molly McGee >didn't have a bad third season like Amphibia >didn't plagiarize anime to hell and back like Steven Universe or Owl House >didn't have an irredeemable ending that ruins the entire show like Star Vs
I wouldn't say it's a perfect show, but it was great and consistent, and never had any seasonal rot even if some parts of it were better than others. On par with Over the Garden Wall.
Hilda had the advantage of being a streaming service which meant having a limited episode count that allowed the writers to be really tight with the story and animation quality.
Meamwhile a show like Amphibia has to contend with network guidelines and orders of 20 episodes per season, which they then have to mass produce in a koream sweatshop studio.
I think a lot of these story cartoons would have benefited from having Hilda's structure of only having 10-13 episodes per season.
I feel if Hilda was a Disney Channel or Cartoon Network show, it would have been much less melancholic and a more traditional work of a post-Adventure Time kids show with further deep lore, lol random humor, and constant anime influence. Hilda would probably have needed to save the Trolberg from an evil villain using a fairy anime power up and by the end we get a timeskip where Hilda leaves her friends and family behind to return to the woods. Also there would be a rich girl rival that gets redeemed and some kind of old grandparent mentor with hidden secrets, as well as shit like a body swap episode between the kids and Kaisa hooking up with another librarian.
>why was Hilda kino?
Because it was sincere and took itself seriously, while sticking with its motif. It wasn't trying to be self aware about the world or characters with a quip every other second about the magical creatures or adventures. Even in S3, it felt genuine and never irony-poisoned. It worked as well as it did because it wasn't ashamed of being a western animated series made in the current day and actually stuck to the core of its story and themes the whole way through. They didn't abandon the folklore influence to become a great value anime. It also helps there is barely any filler and had great pacing. I think that's why it stands the test of time all these years later; it has flaws, but it had fricking soul, and you can't convince me otherwise it didn't. It's one of the most unique pieces of western animation out there; the rare kids cartoon that isn't a comedy.
I'm glad that shit didn't happen. I was worried it was going to.
Hilda actually was nearly picked up by Disney, to the point they were already comissioning various animation tests. They chickened out at the last minute but it's interesting to ponder what the show would have been like under Disney Channel
I can't imagine a show like Hilda airing on Disney Channel. It's too different from DTVA's line up to fit in.

what do you think it would have been called if it was picked up by Disney? cause you know they wouldn't settle for just "Hilda"
it'd be something stupid like Hilda: Trolberg Chronicles
or something similarly stupid or long-winded
I mean, a lot of Disney shows have protagonist names without a subtitle >Darkwing Duck >Kim Possible >Phineas and Ferb >Pickle and Peanut >The Ghost and Molly McGee >Kiff
Parts of the DTVA version of Hilda: >All American voice cast >Twig talks like Scratch or Stan >Johanna and Kaisa aren't hot anymore >We spend too many episodes at the school instead of adventures >Bodyswap episode. We get scenes of Hilda and David switching bodies, and Kaisa in Twig's body >Anime references and homages every episode >Meta humor

>I think a lot of these story cartoons would have benefited from having Hilda's structure of only having 10-13 episodes per season.
All of them would. 20 episodes works for something more episodic and formulaic. But it's total ass for a serialized series.
Western cartoons that had the same quality from start to finish: >Courage the Cowardly Dog >Codename: Kids Next Door >Wander over Yonder >Over the Garden Wall >Hilda
What else to add?
>Hilda is picked up by Disney in 2018 instead of Netflix, is still animated by Mercury though their friendship with DTVA, and still has three seasons, except this time each one is 20 episodes per season, and there aren't year-long hiatuses
What changes?
There would at least be a storyline where Trollberg undergoes some apocalypse due to some powerful entity taking over and all the characters form a resistance to stop it
There would at least be a storyline where Trollberg undergoes some apocalypse due to some powerful entity taking over and all the characters form a resistance to stop it
Nidhogg And Grendel are terrible beast that can be creatures that take over cities easily especially the first creatures said to be the underworld version of destruction itself
Swedish version of the Nix is evil as hell and incredibly powerful(basically a deity in his own right depending on the depiction), but keeps to his rivers and their whereabouts, so not him.
>Giant with a fiery sword destructive enough to end the world (and take himself out in the process)
Interestingly, Surtr is not necessarily meant to be the most powerful of the beings that attack during Ragnarök. Freyr, with his personal weapon, would have been capable of taking him on.
Meanwhile, Thor, the greatest fighter amongst the gods, only draws with Jormungandr, and Fenrir only loses to the second strongest god(Vidarr, god of vengeance and retribution) after killing Oden, and that god has a magical shoe meant for this fight. Fenrir also cracks the sky when opening his jaw.
The weaker wolves Skoll and Hati eat the sun and moon.

Kind of but not to the extent that Disney Channel shows do sometimes where it's like they're trying to spell out the themes to a toddler.

Yeah when I first watched Amphibia a couple years ago it was one of the things that really stuck out to me about it, the way they'd telegraph the 'message' of each episode at the end like a toddler show. I think there was less of it in s2 though, never watched s3
Almost like Hilda mogs everything DTVA has made after they became the Phineas and Ferb and Gravity Falls clone network. Molly could have been better then it but falls apart after S1 hard
It essentially just boils down to
Streaming > Cable
being better for animation, which tragically ironic since Metflix wants to veer away from that and instead be more like cable
>No deus ex machina asspulls like Avatar >No big sacrifice resolved immediately like Gravity Falls >No controversial shit just to shock us like Star and Voltron >No "oh shit the hero died but not really" like Amphibia and Owl House
>No "oh shit the hero died but not really" like Amphibia
I thought people's issue was that was that she did actually die but got impersonated by a clone
>No big sacrifice resolved immediately like Gravity Falls >No "oh shit the hero died but not really" like Amphibia and Owl House
Aren't those the same thing?
Molly’s ghost bff who she constantly hugs and draws with hearts and was willing to spend an eternity in Hell with is not actually a ghost but instead a very much alive human man named Todd who lives probably within a mile of her house.
>Hilda’s dad moving to Trollberg and swapping out the baby Hilda pic with teen Hilda
Thought that was a nice little touch. Initially thought that he was going to be forgotten about for most of the episode (which he was once he got out of the Mound) but nice to see that he’s trying to be better. >Mfw no more Hilda to watch.
you know what bothers me?
Hilda didn't get to expend more time with her grandparents. She was barely half a day with them and already tried "resolving things" by talking to the witch or whatever was that.
I get Twig and Frida and David were in a hurry too, but I wish she could have stayed a little longer to pass time with them.
Felt the same way about them and with her dad. While I’m glad with what we got I would have like the 13 episodes the previous seasons had instead of what was effectively 7 plus a mini-movie.
?si=9hTk1NOBLFYAGPcq
Can we talk about how fricking the soundtrack is because every time I hear it, I remembered the times before Covid and how life was easier and nostalgic for me.
Does anyone have the same experience with listening to this OST?
I'm glad. That means Hilda will always remain a child, and we don't have to deal with idiots on twitter complaining about sexualizing the adult designs.
Given the third season was pretty much the only material to never come from the comics, I’m holding out hope we might get one more film or a special in a few years time. But I know the chances of that happening are slim to none.
I kinda like the idea of Hilda's kid thinking their mum is a super adventurer badass. Until things really go bad and Hilda has to call on her own mum for save the two of them from something
Then Johanna goes full Ellen Ripley mode like she did against the spiderfrog
>one of the things that seems to interest their kid is that hilda was an adventurer and the bravest person on the planet >the mystique is broken when she learns that the marra got her so scared she cried >when she gets into trouble her is to call johanna. further breaking the mental image of the bravest adventurer in trollberg >since david is david, she ends up idolizing grandmum johanna >the irony is not lost on hilda or david >in the end, hilda, david, and johanna all team up to rescue their kid after an 11-minute altercation with dangerous magical beings >hilda shows cleverness while david just beats things with a shovel, johanna has a gun >kid has newfound appreciation for hilda and david
>giants are.... le good!
This is moronic. They step on people and their houses with indifference but notice hilda enough to tell her how oppressed they are
>not having the media literacy to understand a kids show
hilda doesnt want to move away from her house because she feels that the elves are being unfair to her
so she moves heaven and earth to get a permit and prove she is a good person to the elves
but in the end, even though the giants are good people and not malicious, their mere presence destroys hildas house
this is why hilda has a sobering moment when she looks at the crushed house and then back to the elven house she is stepping on
in the end, it doesnt matter if hilda is good or if the giants are good
they have to move for everyones sake, its sad but thats the way things are
He wouldn't have been old all those years ago when they met
Probably came off as this cool exciting adventurer dude before she realised he valued that lifestyle more than he did family
And she was 10 years younger than him. He took advantage of her innocence and her fairy autism and ADHD to pump his seed into undeveloped teen Johanna before dipping
Deadbeat man should have stayed in fairy country to sacrifice his pathetic life to save his mother's daughter
Makes sense actually she had abandonment issues and daddy issues, also add on to that trauma and major gaps in her memory and childhood. Young Johanna was really easy pickings, if it wasn't him it'd have been someone worse. The sad thing is with Johanna's issues specifically the desperation for normalcy fear of the unknown and abandonment issues that probably morphed into insecurities and needs to please the people she loved. Anders abandoning her and hilda was probably more heart breaking for Johanna than hilda, hilda just got used too it and coped because it was her normal life but johanna probably for a long time thought it was just her and she was unloveable.
He wouldn't have been old all those years ago when they met

It was simply too kino for there to be anything to talk about. They didn't pull any controversial bullshit to shock us. No last minute lesbians or other politics to rage about. Hilda is 25% fairy and that's about it.
Every main character except Frida is white, so they had to fill the diversity quota with background characters. Pretty much the only thing "woke" about the show.
the future is now old man, whiteys are the minority now

BLEACHED
Is that a recent thing? I remember black girls who dated white guys being just a normal thing like latinas who date whites, now it's some kind of spicy taboo like blacked.
Nah it's just a raceplay thing, and half of Cinemaphile is racist you should see the WMBF threads. But unlike blacked bs most of the guys referencing it are either memeing or just find the idea of having a black gf that's into getting dominated hot. And with none of the weird cuck shit and other guy dick comparison bs or talk of genocide
It's seems to have developed in response to all the Blacked/BBC spam.
It's also more wholesome, from what I've seen. Where Blacked is 90% focused on the humiliation of white men and degradation of white women, Bleached is primarily focused on white men and non-white women enjoying each other.
>Frida is attached to his hip
>Hilda: “David…I need you.” moments before he saves her
>Kaisa grooming him behind the scenes
>Even the Marras are now flirting with him
I know he won but which one won him?
theirs nothing more based then our lil chad
you know she likes getting her hair pulled and name called
probably Frida tbh
All of them
He’s not even in high school and he’s already reached gigachad levels of game
Just finished watching the season finale and this is the only correct answer. He’s approaching rizz levels not seen since some of Peter Parker’s earlier days.
On that note, does anyone have any recommendations for other shows, movies and/or games to play that have the same level of comfiness that Hilda has? Still badly sick with Covid on top of my chronic health issue so I have time to kill.
I'm rooting for Twintails.
Frida will be his first gf, but they're 13, so it won't last long. Then Twintails when he's a couple of years older and he'll lose his virginity to her. Then once he's around 20, he marries Kaisa.
At that point Kaisa is probably well over 30.
Damn, my boy's rizz is too strong.
Yes.
>Shy boy adventurer
>has a crush on a girl he has no shot with due to the age gap
>Has rivalry with a mean girl he stands up to
>mean girl ends up attracted to him
I've seen this before
Eleven times, as a matter of fact.
Yet it's always cringe and attract the worst kind of posters.
What the frick are those hands
Kaisa or Twintails, gotta be
That ending was totally there because David's still been hanging out with Kaisa behind the scenes and the Marras and he have kept in touch
David doesn't hang out with other boys so Hilda and Frida ended up his more platonic best friends, Kaisa feels like someone he hangs out with when he's just by himself and not as a group
Still gott say hilda is the best choice overall
Despite the /ss/ memes, someone around his age is still the best choice, espcially when its someone she got to know on screen
And hilda being such an opposite of david but still getting along is still a super sweet dynamoc
>went to the parade with her
Kaisa, duh.
he wasn’t just walking around with 2 bags in hand, he got it for her. It’s a date
>steals the bag to tease him
>Kaisa will probably share she bag with him
She didn't think this one through...
Ok so what does this mean? Like I thought this was just grills going through a phase but here they are as adults still being marras. Do the people not care? Are marras just like humans? This raises more questions than answers
The Marras are like 17-18.
>Like I thought this was just grills going through a phase but here they are as adults still being marras
If they are like folklore Marras, they keep being Marras until marriage.
only David is sigma enough t marry all of them to break the curse. What a brave boy.
>The Marras are like 17-18.
Doubt it. Probably 14-15.
In season 3, anon.
It's 2-3 years later than the first season.
Hilda is so lucky to have David Chad as a husband
They made a Brap joke and they gave it to the new girl. I’ll never forgive them
>I'm thinking we should just call off the whole thing and go back to retool the entire season in this direction!
IMAGINE
That plant at the end growing in their old house was the new Faratok Tree, right?
That’s where Woodman planted it
That was Blue Kettle the Faratok was in front of Woodman's https://hildatheseries.fandom.com/wiki/Blue_Nettle
David is for getting plapped, not doing the plapping
So, did you like the final season?
Especially.
The blue-haired brat surpassed my expectations, for the third time in a row.
I actually prefer her new outfit, mainly because she looks cuter with a ponytail.
picrel but with teen Hilda would be perfect
Not perfect, but honestly it was a worthy successor to the previous two seasons + movie extension. Glad I was able to see this series through to more or less completion, even if threads for it might become extremely scarce.
Absolutely. There were a few missed opportunities that made me wish the season had 13 episodes instead of 7 and an extended episode but it was a very comfy season and show as a whole from start to finish. Sad that it’s finished but I’m glad with what we got and am relieved it didn’t overstay its welcome like other animated shows tend to do. Praying that we get a DVD / Blu-Ray set at some point though. Would have loved to have seen more of Hilda using a sword though
Yes, but I felt it could have been so much better
Though I liked the first two seasons and the movie I have zero desire to watch the third season.
why not
seen the previews and got that same feeling in my gut as when I watch trailers for modern games and movies. a lot of people haven't noticed this but the clown world we live in has gone up a notch and everyone (you included) has begun worshipping infantilism - a cancer that has taken over 99% of the media and Hilda season 3 looks to me to be another victim if you'll pardon my schizo ramblings.
>if you'll pardon my schizo ramblings
At least you're self aware.
You're fricking moronic
Why not?
nta but for me it's because Hilda is a grown woman in season 3 and I prefer prepubescent female protagonists. The thought of Frida and Hilda putting tampons in their vegana disgusts me. If I don't watch season 3, the two will simple stay young and pure. Simple as that.
There’s no period episode
She had her period in season 2.
Found the nonce.
Why was it only 8 episodes long?
I think was supposed to be 10-11 episodes but they mashed the last four eps together as a one hour finale.
Still a lot shorter than season 2 which had 13 episodes and several had extended runtimes.
If you count the movie as part of season 3, then every season has the same overall runtime.
I think it was the weakest of the three but I enjoyed it overall. A fine conclusion.
MUCH better than expected. Still very Netflix but possibly an improvement on season 2 - well except for giant slayer
I wish we got a season before this one. With Hilda and friends grown up and exploring more about their world and lore. A bit of a breathe of fresh air before the drama that was coming this final season.
It's not as good as the first two seasons and doesn’t really top The Mountain King Movie as a conclusion to the series.
The trolls have been the antagonists from the beginning of the show, it makes sense to have a concluding movie about them. Hilda gets to see things from trolls’ perspective, reconcile things with her mum and change the culture of Trollburg. That’s everything the series was going for wrapped in a big bow, the movie is a great conclusion.
On the other hand, in season 3 the location of Tofoten, Aunty Astrid and all the fairy shit seem to just come out of nowhere. Suddenly the show wants me to feel this is all very important stuff, but I don’t really buy is because it was never established, referred to, or set-up in the first place.
Anyway, I love Hilda so I’m glad they got to do what they wanted even if I don’t really like season 3. Also, frick Hilda’s dad. I’m going to marry Johanna and give little Hilda all the love in the world.
It might have been in the comic, there's a moment where Johanna suddenly gets creeped out by a hill that resembles a fairy mound and it's literally never brought up again in the Stone Forest graphic novel
Maybe there was a desire from Luke to do a cool story with fairies, but honestly what we got wasn't that great. It's my understanding that season 3 is the only season that’s not some sort of adaptation of the comic, but rather the story book tie-in, which was a collaboration between Luke Pearson, Stephen Davies and Sapo Lendário.
I don't mind that the Netflix show takes what it wants from the comic and adds too it, I think most of the additions in seasons 1 & 2 are great. But there is a big difference when it comes to taking a comic with a pre-established world, lore and characters and adapting it with little add-ons, and coming up with COMPLETELY NEW locations (Toften), characters (Astrid) and story lore (Faries).
It’s what makes season 3 weaker than the other seasons, they could rely on the comic for stability, while the final season just feels like it goes out on its own limb to try and be interesting and doesn’t really meet the mark.
>Boring movie tho.
Boring in content or execution? It defiantly has a different pace compared to the episode lengths. but personally, I think the movie did a great job building atmosphere around the trolls and their strange world. it takes its time introducing it, but I know that could seem boring to some.
Hilda Season 3 is what's called a "post-script season", basically it's when the show wrapped up its story but the network renews it for one more season anyway so the writers have to scramble back to write extra content and storylines past the intended endpoint.
Examples include Babylon 5, Agents of Shield, and The Flash.
>The Flash
What would you say was the post-script season?
Probably after COIE, the thing is there was a lot of foreshadowing and cb lore to explore but what seemed like a mixed bag before that became a rotten batch after.
Or maybe the entire CWverse should've been over with it.
Apparently the cast and crew were expecting the eight season to be the final one
It was still their second worst season
Boring movie tho. But I agree that I wish they foreshadowed the fairy stuff more in the past.
So far the only thing I can think of is Hilda's affinity to fly, whenever is on a woff or by magic.
I wish there were more shows willing to pull from folklore than DnD fantasy shit. and keep things small scale, no saving the world from evil wizards or dragons, just someone getting into trouble with local folklore creatures.
I mean you can do DnD fantasy shit with low or personal stakes as much as there are also epic scale folklore stories.
My issue is that everyone does DnD fantasy, I'm tired of the same old elves, dwarves, goblins thing repeated. I want to see more shows drawing from other mythologies.
Elves and dwarves are in Hilda. You are either making shit up or looking for something to complain about
How did you miss the point this badly?
Hilda is literally from Norse/Germanic European mythology. The problem is that D&D is from most European folklores so obviously most of European folklores and mythologies that appear in shows are going to have D&D reference, because D&D reference is European myth and folklore
But that is not the point. The point was to do something else outside of the same old game fantasy that always appears in western media. It's not just stakes. It's both of these things.
>not one joke about david having a bug on him the entire season
0/10 absolute trash season
homie? the very first episode has a lot of dragonflies stepping in his face.
OOOH THEY FRICKIN
Rank the seasons (and movie), which was the best and weakest?
2 > 3 > 1 > Mountain King
3 had the best animation but I liked the stories in 2 a little more. Mountain King’s good but 1 has some really good highs
David and Frida has no reason to be in that movie and Erik became a good guy because "yes".
Once again, I wish we saw more of the old characters this last season. What's Erik now up tho? He became a buddhist monk and lives alone in a hill now? Or probably got a new job and is cleaning toilets?
Erik was a good guy in the book, they gave his good scene with the berries from the book to the nameless black patrol officer too. He's in the end credits wearing a Hawaiian shirt. Erik is having a good time
Couldn't possibly rank them, honestly. I'm thinking right now and every season has things I adore and things I find a little mid. Ranking singular episodes may be easier actually.
So what’s eveyone’s Top 3 episodes then? I don’t remember the exact names of them but mine are:
>The one in S2 where David becomes brave.
>The S2 Tidemice one.
>Finale of S3 but maybe it’s because that one is still fresh in my mind. Might be something else later on.
Mine are:
3) The Bird Parade
2) The Train to Tofoten
1) The Deerfox
I loved the first 2 episodes of Hilda, but Bird Parade was somehow the one that really struck me.
Train to Tofoten was somewhat melancholic to me. I also loved Geat-aunt Astrid and the scene with the Wofs at the end was amazing.
And The Deerfox... well, I probably don't need to say anything.
Mountain King/Fairy Isle I consider a bit unfair since they're movies.
Top 3 are probably Deerfox, fifty year night, and nightmare spirit because I love the marra
Also favourite character spot I will give to Johanna
I always loved the show most when it felt like three little kids exploring a big magic city full of mysteries, those episodes were perfect. Trollberg is a really pretty setting and the best stories are the ones set inside of it
>The Nightmare Spirit, when they're exploring to find the Rat King and David's Marra
>The Yule Lads, played like a fairy tale about Hilda befriending evil krampus monsters with her childhood kindness
>The Jorts Incident (same as you), for some reason that last half of them playing Ghostbusters now that Kaisa's their friend was too comfy
Season 1 will always be my favorite season. I like how storylines that would seem boring like going to a school open house or cleaning a room are actually really fun thanks to the kids' likable personalities.
They did all this just to set up the new prequel, Lil Johanna. It’s like Hilda except she needs 3 parents just to reign her in
I was expecting Hilda had changed the future or at least altered the present.
Her changes would’ve been too small to notice. At least thanks to her 1 more giant went free a long time ago
>“maybe I’ll plant it a little closer to home this time”
Woodman’s older than he sounds. Given he implies he looks after the ancient trees in Hilda’s book.
I bet if Hilda had walked all the way to his house in Mountain King he’d know how to change her back. Like how he knew about the elves but just never told them
Alternate reality, it didn't matter what she did, no consequence. Weren't you paying attention?
But then Woodman says he might have been thinking of a seperate tree and they could have actually had a chance at changing the past, kind of felt like a dig at multiverse stories
>But then Woodman says he might have been thinking of a seperate tree
I think the reason it burned is because it's the same tree in all dimensions. If it burn in one, it burns in all.
Must be a hell to maintain.
although it would still burn if it was just the regular past. If it was burning in Hilda's present then the surrounding woods would've also been on fire when they got there.
Could've been they just needed a workaround to avoid the Time Worm plot
>If it was burning in Hilda's present then the surrounding woods would've also been on fire
It's relatively isolated from the other tree and/or might have just received the consequence of burning without burning itself.
I finished my first Hilda piece It's the hildavid cuddle asked by this anon
Sorry it's so shit I'll try and draw some more hilda tonight but odds are I'll drop them tommorow
that one was my request, thanks drawfren
(Love the size diff on this, just perfect)
thanks bro eh I kept redrawing david then said frick it lol. I felt he kept being too big but most of my mistake was trying to do Hilda in a different style than the show. But happy you like it
Hilda’s hair melting on David’s shirt looks weird
I finished the other sleeping Hilda request I got
, I actually like this one a bit more than the cuddle one. I'll do some more drawings tomorrow hopefully.
I made a less shipping and horny version. Just a girl dreaming of adventure
>shirt slightly pulled up
perfect
so hot. could you draw David making her dream come true?
>more cute hildavid (davilda?)
thats going in my collection
Happy to hear that makes me feel a bit of pride.
Thanks anon, yeah I sometimes I think of giving up but I got my degree in art so I kind of can't kek. But it's all about just persisting like you say and just accepting their are some beast and prodigies out there. Making sure not to compare yourself to them and knowing for every 14 year old webcomic artist theirs a 20 something working hard to improve just like you.
Ha maybe really need ya to be more specific though
Yeah I felt it gives way to the whole slob thing and felt like hilda. Also funny to me the stomach scratch could also read as hilda reaching in her pants in the horny one.
But yeah if you guys have any request shoot em I'm low on ideas myself.
>Yeah I felt it gives way to the whole slob thing and felt like hilda.
It really does, it's a shame the actual show didn't have any scenes with Hilda sleeping like this because it fits with her being a "wild child".
That it definitely does, really at times you forget how wild of a child hilda is. It's why I like the autist hilda ideas of her being ignorant of most normal people stuff and being behind in school.
Hmmmm not a terrible idea, I'll see what I can do.
Hilda's Old Bedtime Routine:
>kick off boots
>go to sleep
She didn't even bother getting under the covers either, I noticed in the 3rd episode of s3 when she falls out of her bed after her nightmare, it's still perfectly made so it looks like she wasn't using them that time either.
how about make her almost the same view: Hilda wide open in bed, but she's ahegao-ing with half of David's shmeat in her. You would only see his arms wrapped around Hilda's waist and a little icon of David moaning. Some cum and/or bulge would be the cherry on the top
>Making sure not to compare yourself to them and knowing for every 14 year old webcomic artist theirs a 20 something working hard to improve just like you.
Took way too long to learn this about life in general. Did my Honours in university in 2019 and got it in 2020 the day Australia went into Covid lockdown mode. Didn’t get a job until 2021 (turned 25 that year) and thought for a very long time I was behind everyone else in my workplace of a comparable age, but they also got fricked over by the lockdowns too in some way, shape or form.
>Art requests
The whole gang doing whatever Hilda is doing in this image together.
>Spoiler
The difference is you persisted whereas I gave up on doing that a long time ago. And yes, I do regret it. I think it looks great nonetheless. Keep going, based draw anon.
>spend all day running around with david up and down trollberg
>nominally to make new friends with some obscure magical creature, in actuality because they just want to have fun together
>absolutely tuckered out, crash at hildas place
>just pass out in the bed together
>too tired to go home, just barely enough energy to get cleaned up and lie down together
>go to sleep in each others arms
this is cute anon sorry I missed it happy it inspired you to green. In my head it was more hilda clinging to david but david is just sleep. He does grab her hand when she tries to hug him though.
During it's runtime Hilda managed to make me cry twice
What about you guys?
I feel their weren't any real cry moments for me but when that end song with lyrics cut in at the end of S3. idk man something about knowing it was over and the new end song and credits. Truly felt like the end of an era I didn't cry but I feel if I was younger I would have but it pulled a lot on my heart strings. I hope Hilda isn't a outlier and more kino and comfy shows and really overall good series come around. I feel we've gotten a lot of animated series that were by the numbers and really just didn't hit right no matter the genre recently but Hilda is one of those that stood out among the average and became peak it had soul.
I think Amphibia has the record with five times.
Amphibia still has the most genuinely bittersweet ending out of all the modern cartoons but Hilda has the most consistent and satisfying run through and through.
>Amphibia still has the most genuinely bittersweet ending out of all the modern cartoons
It was way too maudlin for my liking. It tried be super sad and emotional and only nailed that atmosphere maybe once(Sprig and Anne separation), but it had already clumsily tried to pull at the heartstrings before that to the point that should have been a really good moment was undercut.
I honestly don't think it is a particularly good finale, but at least it didn't trainwreck itself like some shows.
What makes Amphibia distinct from other series is that it didn't cop out at the end, they actually do seperate and the original Anne might really be dead.
Even Hilda, as much as I loved it, does pull the cop out during dramatic moments card thrice (Twig leaving with his kind then he doesn't, Johanna dies then she doesn't, Astrid was going to sacrifice herself and then she doesn't)
>What makes Amphibia distinct from other series is that it didn't cop out at the end
>he doesn't know
It had absolute closure which I feel this season and many other cartoon finales lacked
Tbf with Hilda, it had already received closure in the Mountain King, which wrapped up the overarching story about the growing threat of the trolls.
The show then got unexpectedly renewed for season three which Luke and the crew were not expecting at all so they had to pull the fairyline storyline out of their ass. So what we got at the actual end was just the Mountain King's ending again but with all the show's characters time present at the Great Raven Parade.
>which Luke and the crew were not expecting at all so they had to pull the fairyline storyline out of their ass.
Wasn't there still more album to adapt?
No, the comics ended at Mountain King and the books are based on the show albeit the characters are straight up buttholes and emotionally abusive towards Hilda.
>and the books are based on the show
Pretty sure it was a comics book before being a show.
There's the graphic novels, which was the original source material, then the Netflix show adaptation, and then the tie-in novels which are abridged retellings of the show's episodes but they also change and add scenes that shift the characterization like Frida and David are apparently more antagonistic to Hilda in that version.
>and then the tie-in novels which are abridged retellings of the show's episodes but they also change and add scenes that shift the characterization like Frida and David are apparently more antagonistic to Hilda in that version.
Why?
Idk, the novels aren't written by Pearson, it's somebody else. The author just decided to do that I guess
In the books, David and Frida have a falling out with Hilda as soon as their first adventure together. They reconcile but still shit on Hilda for screwing up their attempts to get scout badges.
Also Johanna straight up doesn't approve of Hilda's adventures and there's even a moment where she shames her for not being normal and getting any badges to show for being a sparrow scout.
>Also Johanna straight up doesn't approve of Hilda's adventures and there's even a moment where she shames her for not being normal and getting any badges to show for being a sparrow scout.
Damn, why did the writers like seeing her talked down to so much?
Actually from what I've seen, Hilda was apparently much more of a brat in the novels so guess she (kind of) deserves it. Then again I haven't actually read them and I'm just going off what other people said about them.
>there's even a moment where she shames her for not being normal
Realistic. Women will shame their kids for not being what is considered ‘normal’, or just what is socially acceptable at the time. Even if the child is neurodivergent ie they’re different by default and can’t help it, they’ll shame them anyway with no ounce of compassion for their own blood. Anyone who goes against the grain is a freak to them.
I’m not the sort of person to cry during things like this, but if something has an ending like Hilda does and makes me feel melancholic I’ll go for a 10km run to take my mind off of it followed up by an hour with my punching bag if I need it. And this series has definitely goes on that list.
3 times.
I cried with Deerfox. I cried after finishing the Fairy Mound, but it was more about the realization that I was on the final season than the episode itself. And then I cried at the final scene of the finale, beacause it really sunk in that this was it.
Whenever Johanna cries.
I also get horny when Johanna cries, so its a very confusing and upsetting experience for me.
They did her right in the show, a loving mother who’d do anything for her daughter and loves her dearly, but has to contend with how hard it is to be a single mother. I love her.
Johanna questioning whether she’s a good mother is a very real and very heartbreaking moment.
The voice actress really sells it too. Probably my favourite performance out of the whole cast
It's even more impressive since Hilda is one of the few animated shows where the voice cast generally don't record their lines together, even before COVID hit, but the acting still feels natural and has a smooth flow
Don't mind me. Just being based.
he's getting sucked off-screen
By the Pooka?
With his taste in music I would not be surprised if he had on his Walkman songs from Nickelback and/or Backstreet Boys, which isn’t the worst thing in the world
Yep, many do, like the movie Troll Hunter. Just look at this one.
Familiar with this too, that's one of my favorite movies hahaha would have liked Eric to be like Hans from the movie
>Lost her parents and memories
>Deadbeat husband ran off on her
>Had to raise Hilda alone and deal with her adventurers
>Has to fight off all sorts of monsters to protect Hilda
Is Johanna the best cartoon mom? She has it pretty rough but still does her best to look after her little girl
She's gotta be the very best. It's a beautiful thing they show her struggling to do it right, but Hilda turned out a good daughter
I will put her next to these Queens.
This is such a bizarre pose they used for Louise in this shot, her face practically screams "it's over".
She knew her time was up. The fourth freak didn't even made it to the final episode
She was in the finale, you see her on a parade float with the other sparrow scouts
And she's the camera pov taking a shot of Raven
Plot holes of the season
>Why couldn't Astrid have been the one to take Johanna's place when it was time to fulfill the ten year deal instead of her parents?
>Were Hilda's grandparents actively trying to null the deal? Why were they attempting to lore and suddenly following and interfering with Hilda's adventures after the fairy mound incident?
>1
Because that's asking too much of her and the Spirit probably wouldn't have accepted Astrid.
>2
I don't think they were trying to null the deal, just keeping an eye on their granddaughter. Otherwise Lydia wouldn't have flown away from Johanna.
>>Why couldn't Astrid have been the one to take Johanna's place when it was time to fulfill the ten year deal instead of her parents?
The Authority (whatever its actual name is) clearly said they didn't care for Astrid presence in the Fairy Land. Her life, on the other hand, was enough of a bargain, but I suppose that back then Astrid didn't really consider killing herself. Can't really blame her for that.
> Why were they attempting to lore and suddenly following and interfering with Hilda's adventures
They weren't. While the show, for several episodes, frame them as apparently menacing, all they are really doing is having a look at their grand-daughter, simply wanting to know a bit more about her. They only interfere when Anders's life is in danger.
There was no deal nulled until Johanna actually reunite with her parents.
>While the show, for several episodes, frame them as apparently menacing, all they are really doing is having a look at their grand-daughter, simply wanting to know a bit more about her
They do call for Hilda to come to them and apparently did the same to Johanna in the past when she was a kid, even though the latter would have definitely voided the deal
>They do call for Hilda to come to them
They don't.
The mount might have created some sort of attraction, but I will ascribe that to the Authority.
Also in season 1 Johanna said she remembered living in trollberg, going to the parade and being a sparrow scout when she was Hilda’s age.
I wish Season 3 had another of these scenes.
It had a fart joke
Hilda wasn't even the one subject to it, just that other girl no one cares about.
???
So who is taking over now that Hilda is dead?
Adventure Time returning to take back its original throne since Fionna and Cake just got renewed for a second season
it's measured on quality not runtime, in which case Fionna and Cake is buried under every other victim for being the worst one
in that case, there can only be one
Yet Adventure Time outlasted them all
I feel spin offs don't count especially if their is massive quality dips
There wasn't, though.
Distant Lands and Fionna and Cake are spin-offs but they still feel like AT episodes but just with an extended runtime because the original show encompassed all sorts of characters and told all sorts of stories with them.
>especially if their is massive quality dips
It's the opposite since F&C actually revatlized interest and was popular enough to get renewed on Max, the only other animated original on the network to do so was Jellystone
Are you gonna shill Spongebob, Family Guy and Simpsons next?
>multiverse crap
No thank you, Hilda's episode on it being the worst of the season is already all I care for multiverses for the next ten years.
>Hilda's episode on it being the worst of the season
Bro skipped out on the Merman one
The merman was funny and had really fun visuals.
Merman was frickable but that's really it
Merman was fun, albeit kind of annoying.
The multiverse episode with the tree and the giants ended on a message that felt like it was being written for something else, rather than the actual situation on hand.
As if any could take her place.
Hilda didnt die, she was assumed like Mary.
No braid this time, kek.
The braid still doesn't make sense to me, why braid her hair when she just either lets it down or puts it in a ponytail when she wakes up?
So that she doesn't need to comb them/comb them less in the morning.
yeah i was saying the same thing lol
But that doesn't make sense wouldn't you need to unbraid it so wouldn't take a similar amount of time?
>you need to unbraid it so wouldn't take a similar amount of time?
Do you know how easy it is to unbraid hair? remove the rubber band and it basically unfold on its own.
Objection: asked and answered.
Wait you drew this anon? I didn't notice it as first.
Really cute work, I like how you drew the shadow on her pale skin and hair
any megas yet?
>The part of Hilda where Hilda says "Hello, I'm Hilder, en dis is Tweeg."
>Halló, Ég heiti Hildur Jónönnudóttir
>Hefurðu séð álfa?
The Johanadottir was stupid last thread and we already pointed out matronyms are barely a thing at all.
The Great Drip!
why did Johanna momentarily turn into a green zombie but then immediately revive?
Her parents made a deal to stop her from dying from an illness, when she got back home the deal was void so the illness returned.
But then Van Gale agreed to take Johanna's place in the fairy island. So Van Gale "lost her life" kinda but no really since she wanted to live in the fairy isle anyway, and Johanna got her life back
I'm here only for Johanna. No Johanna - no (you)'s for you. You want (you)'s from me? Post Johanna.
Picrel is me.
Based. She's the best character in the show in my opinion. There's something very compelling about a single mother constantly at her wits end over having to always throw herself into danger to protect her overly adventurous daughter from supernaturally bullshit. She isn't some badass, she's just a mum who'll do anything to protect her loved ones despite how terrified and miserable she is.
Also she's sexy and precious and I want to give Hilda some half-siblings.
how much kaissa is in s3?
Very little
Maybe ten seconds. No lines.
>Maybe ten seconds. No lines.
They could've at least shown her and David's wedding
Witches ceremonies are a private affair, I'm afraid
Imagine the pegging
Wasn't expecting Season 3 to be a Johanna season but now I'm glad that it was. Introducing Hilda's father felt kind of pointless to me however and makes me question Johanna's taste in men.
>No Kelly
IT'S OVÏYR
They completely wasted Hilda's dad character. But meh, I liked anyway
I think we all feel the same
Is it premature to call this show one of the best western cartoons of all time? Unless Pearson or Mercury make something even better, I don't see how the modern animation industry can beat it. At the very least it is a classic animated series now knowing it had a good ending.
I don't see why not. A lot of my favorite cartoons either have stinker endings, get outright cancelled or keep getting season after season to the point where I stop caring. Hilda is short and sweet with consistent output of good episodes and an appropriate sendoff. I'm glad that it's over though I do hope that the team who made Hilda can do something new in the future.
I’d say it’s definitely up there with the likes of Moomin Valley, Blinky Bill, Gravity Falls, etc. I.e. comfy and meant for kids but also contains slightly darker content that only adults will really understand and/or delve into themes that most other kid’s shows don’t want to address.
Definitely one of the best of modern times in terms of kid cartoons, but I think a few of the adult animated series recently surpass it
Which ones?
Blue Eyes Samurai, Pantheon, Scavenger's Reign, and Primal are better than Hilda S3.
Even Cinemaphile is talking about us now.
best character, reminded me of WoY for some reason
Based Eugene enjoyer.
i love him. theater twink
Kinda reminds me of Double Trouble from She-Ra. Both green, both strangely sexy and both into theatrics.
>strangely sexy
I don't understand
true, there's nothing strange about it. he's just straight up cute
>chipper personality
>simple yet iconic design
>earworm-inducing musical number
Fish-man after the little furball's own heart
I don't get why people hate this guy, he's a fantastic character
I liked how he never seemed insidious even when he "trapped" them, just really deprived for human company. I wouldn't be able to take him seriously if they did otherwise
I think he’s a “ NO TALENT MEDIOCRE PIECE OF SHIT ”
To me he was like Luca Paguro mixed with the Genie from Aladdin, a Star Vs. the Forces of Evil character, Sebastian from The Little Mermaid (as he was an entertainer to the king of the sea) and Alastor from Hazbin Hotel.
Yeah, he mostly reminded me of Luca's fish form which is why I wanted to frick him.
His accent changed a bit when he started singing in some segments. What was up with that
More lime Hildamn
Damn night time hilda was a tease, I may just redraw this but with hilda being more of a tease.
I finished another Hilda piece boyos, I think this'll be my only one tonight feeling weirdly tired. But you can give me request ideas for tomorrow.
Hope you guys like it
>Hildaculo
Good show, mate
>Hildaculo
I had to look this up but based, thanks anon yeah I actually did a mini sketchpage of hilda potential ass poses but that one was my fave as it was the least proactive and felt the most like the og pose.
Hopefully it'll keep working also I'll have to do the marra tomorow, but shouldn't take to long.
Hildaculous?
That's hot as hell. David won't be able to stand that much teasing
Hilda doesn't realize he's not a lil bugboy anymore, S3 david is about to push her head down and have her ass up.
>showing ass to a hormonal teenager at a sleep over
Hilda is playing with fire here
Lol my response to another is right below you but yeah you aren't wrong. Hilda is going to get more than she bargains for and realize David is bigger and stronger than her. either she's getting full nelson'd mating pressed or hair pulled doggy style.
I can't wait to see it drawn. We're in need of more amazing arts like yours
Thanks anon I wouldn't say amazing though lol, but yeah I'm surprised their aren't too many sketches being dropped. I've been practicing and prepping for the Hilda finale threads. This is us drawanons last chance for Hilda content making with the bois.
Yep, she wants to tease david unknowing now their are consequences.
Kek last thread I said something about how cute Braid/pj hilda was. I think I unintentionally started the simping for it. Like said nothings cuter than a girl in booty shorts and her bf's oversized shirt. Really it's funny how much bigger david is I can imagine that.
also just realized holy shit it's the same color and style shirt too? Hilda really maybe wearing our boys shit.
we need some art of the morning after david finally gives in to hildas temptations
with hilda in davids shirt, big enough to be a PJ itself, and waiting for him to wake up
Heh sounds fun actually, but I imagine Hilda would be to fricked out to wake up first.
The best part of this is how she has to pull up her oversized t-shirt to show her ass
That's David's. She tends to steal his clothes
such cute feet
What about Fridamn?
Louise is for ______
I wish they kept her around for a few more episodes.
My guy became one of the coolest characters without having any superpower.
His girl friends are a witch and a fairy yet he is a normal human and has nothing to envy them.
>Goes from being scared of almost everything to only being scared of some things but says “frick it” and goes headfirst into trouble if his friends need him.
>Also becomes alright with bugs
Absolute gigachad in the making.
Hilda husband in the making
The fairy is gonna have to compete with a young witch, an older witch and a marra.
Based Hilda, she basically turned David into her ideal husband. Blue haired Manic pixie dream girl takes quiet bullied boy and turns him into a chad.
Yeah I feel you covid ruined a lot of peoples stuff sadly. Really I'm just a hater so talented people motivate me to do better by raw hatred especially since in my senpai we have like 5 art prodigies
This is the accident pose, I'll be honest I may do the marra but the whole gang is a lot lol
>Really I'm just a hater so talented people motivate me to do better by raw hatred
Spite can be a hell of a motivator at times when needed.
>Just the Marra
Nice!
>hilda overcompensares for being given near total autonomy as a kid by being absolutely doting
>david ends up being the hands off parent
Ok this made me kek pretty hard, Idk why but this reverse would be just too funny. I know it'll never happen because even at their peaks of their development I can't see them going so far into the other direction.
There was a discussion about what Hilda would be like a parent in the previous thread and what anons came up with was essentially just The Goofy Movie but replace Goofy with Hilda.
>The Goofy Movie but replace Goofy with Hilda
Wouldn't David but better as a great dad but isn't much of a adventurer like his wife?
If we're going with the "Hilda's child has the opposite personality and hobbies to her" scenario then yeah they would probably be much closer to David if he was the father while Hilda would be desperately trying to relate to their child or get them to come on adventures with her
My idea was that Hilda's kid is into adventures and scary stuff too, but it's modern stuff like haunted exe files and slenderman ARGs
Hilda acts like a boomer who doesn't get all this new-fangled tech adventuring stuff and prefers to just go camping out where the monsters live
Speaking of kids, how many kids do you think Hilda want to have? Are they going to have just one to two kids or go full Irish Catholic to have some tens children to filed in their cabin
Probably just 1 or 2, not sure why but it feels right
They would want to give any kid they have undivided attention
1 or 2 seems about right.
I see her having two, but their is a lot of comedic potential for the typical two closer in age then one that's the youngest. Imagine she has a teen and preteen kid and then another that's a baby she always keeps in one of those kangaroo pouches.
But if it's Hilda and David, who knows they may really have some hot sweaty animalistic plapping til the room stinks sexo Hilda and David make a the loud house kek.
This sounds like a hilarious idea, but I'd also love for David to become a Clark kent type. Then one day he's at work or headed home just listening to lite rock in his chair, then hilda or the kids call him scared. He then proceeds to rip out of his good boy fit and go full rambo on whatever is hurting his family.
Be funny if Hilda's kids realize she's not even the most badass member of their family. It's just she hangs around a lot of tough and dedicated people that kept her from getting sent to the gulag as a kid.
This made me kek harder than it should have, also yeah I mean as much as we love Hilda she's set up to be a womanlet and really hasn't done much good in a fight. Even the giant slayer, she damn near killed woodsman and a village and the giant slayer was obviously younger than hilda and she almost lost.
I like this one as well, as I said above I do see a potential arc for Hilda's kids is either they like David more because well he's more normal and less autismo. Or they think he's too mild manner or lame then they learn their dad is a bit of a chad in a arc. I see the him punching some beast like stan pines punched the dinosaur.
Thats when hilda recounts how David was brave when it mattered and even when he was scared he always found it in him to be there for his friends
No lie, that's the type of Tv dad we need actually Imagine a dad that's scared of all the mystery and lore stuff but unlike modern dad's in cartoons he's actually able to still be a badass when he needs to be and the responsible one without being pathetic or a complete coward.
Really would work well as it'd show a parent can still be cool, but human with fears and hesitation.
>David: stay the hell away from my Kids
>"thats when hilda said she needed me"
>"oh shut up"
>mild giggling between them
I think their kids would know, Hilda is probably a screamer. They hear how much she loves him every night
And they get aroused by it
I'd hope not since that's their kids
not the parents, the kids. Kids can't choose what they get horny about, what the parents shouldn't do is endorse it
but we know Hilda would endorse it
Yeah we've discussed potential hilda as a adult a lot. My main idea in last thread was she was too into adventure and didn't realize her kid/s weren't. I also feel she kind of needs david as a spouse as he's the most willing to put up with her autismo and be there to support her in the things she's not good at so she can keep adventuring but also parent and be a functional adult.
I do like Hilda with her older kids she may have alienated and trying to connect with them on her own.
I see david more being a unwilling participant, he goes on adventures because he cares for hilda but not because he really likes them. But as S3 implies he kind of just accepts them and knows they will happen when he's around hilda but he still sticks around also probably to keep her from getting herself killed.
He'd probably be like Hilda's grandad and make them a cabin in the woods to live in during summer break so the kids can get some outdoors and camping experiences and hilda can enjoy her adventures. Also a way to help her unwind from living in the stuffy town.
He truly is our lil chad, also you are slightly off his girlfriends are.....
>A Fairy
>A trainee witch
>A goth witch
>A Marra
>A single mom
No lie though he really grew into being a chad, really I saw some people talking about him being inconsistent and too different in the third season. I feel it makes sense after meeting hilda and learning to stand up for himself and gaining some confidence also fixing his friendship with Frida of course he'd be more bold and less soft spoken.
I kind of loved David being more vocal and playful it adds a layer to his character.
>A single mom
Isn't Johanna husband implied that he will finally staying with her and Hilda life
It's implied he'll be staying in Trollberg, but nothing about getting back with Johanna. So she's still single
She didn't show any interest in starting things back up with him either
Johanna deserves a better and younger man than Anders
Okay, now what characters do you think will be a good husband for Johanna and father figure to Hilda
David
Kaisa
The Bellkeeper
Gerda
Me.
Greg Universe aka Murder wiener
David was trained by Greg the Gem Breaker
I mean just because he'll be in hilda's life doesn't mean they'll get back together. But that would be a great ep idea if the series continued, imagine poor hilda trying to get her dad and johanna back together.
>Implying David isn’t going to have go to ground once the war between Kaisa, Twintails, Frida and Hilda hits its peak.
He might be a chad but with no superpowers of his own he could he in a precarious position.
Also on the topic of David being a chad:
>Have a Covid-induced dream last night of encountering David in my most recent Pokémon: Rouge Emerald run.
>Has a Yanma and a Ledyba. Beat him easily enough but he tells me I’ll regret it.
>Encounter him as my final Elite Four fight.
>Has a Yanmega, a Ledian that knows DynamicPunch that never misses, a Galvantula, a Volcarona, a Mega BeeBrill and a giant Butterfree which procedurally sweeps my team.
>Get the “You have no more Pokémon left. You white out” message.
>He’s there at the HQ and tells me I’d lost before I’d even started, then tells me better luck the next time we meet.
>Dream proceeds as normal for a Covid one.
David could handle it, also kind of sad we never saw David hit anything with a shovel.
Also that's a interesting dream anon, but yeah now I'm imagining hilda as a pokemon series.
>Pokémon: Rouge Emerald run.
You reminded me I've drawn both Kelly and Twintails as Mismagius before
I literally thought in my dream after the first David encounter if I’d run into Frida and did think on the chances of them having a Misdrevous or Mismagius. I was also terrified Hilda would appear out of nowhere with the white Vulpix, Honchkrow (for the Great Raven) and a stacked team of game-cover legendaries.
So which theory do you prefer?
>hilda's father died.
>Hilda's father abandons Johanna when she was pregnant.
>Johanna escaped from Hilda's father.
>Johanna doesn't know who Hilda's father is.
>magical pregnancy.
>Hilda's father is Hilda's grandfather.
I've always liked the idea that Hilda's dad was a brave warrior/adventurer who had to leave his wife and daughter to stop some evil to keep them safe only to die/get trapped in the attempt. Bonus points if Johanna didn't know and thought he just abandoned her. Cliched maybe, but I think it would be a cool way of exampling why Hilda is so obsessed with adventures and weird shit.
Who was the cutest new character?
Seeing Hilda consume food is funny to me, not sure why.
I'm on episode 2 and my current theory is that Joanna was sexually assaulted by a fairy while she was in the mound and Hilda is half fairy. Seriously, the fairy stuff seems really spooky and Joanna was talking about it like she was raped by a group of them by how traumatised she was
>tons of dark brown people in medieval englanorway
okay sure, why not. Maybe someone took a real long boat trip and established a bunch. frickit.
It's an alternate universe of an already alternate universe
Where the countries the poc comes from are still shitholes, got it.
>not a single gay person in the show
How did they get away with this in the current year?
There was that background lesbian couple
To be fair, there also weren't many straight people, other than the obligatory parents and that one forgotten Alfred gf
Loved the lack of shipping in this show. It absolutely destroyed the Amphibia fandom.
I thought all of that shows shipping discussions were just about the main trio in a poly relationship
Hilda threads have it too, it's just constant discussion about every girl in the show being in David's harem
The problem with Amphibia is that 90% of the fandoms are just shipping the main trio. And it's not just for fun like here. It's an obsession that they take bloody seriously.
I wonder if Lydia, Phin and Astrid ever had a threesome
Drawing a threeway between David, Frida and the new Marra >:)
>Not one of Hilda with her boyfriend David and their girlfriend Frida
>:(
the trio are really good friends, you dont really feel angry at any combination of the three, or just all three, since they have really good dynamics with each other
and even if just two get together, they wouldnt leave the third one out
hildavid is my favorite, but saltongreens makes the best frildavid
Still crazy how small Hilda is compared to David and Frida.
this is what happens when you feed your daughter only with cucumber sandwiches
you just need to be careful with your tiny blue-haired brat
hilda should be careful about who she teases, her shortness gives her a disadvantage
She teases david and gets more than she bargains for. I also love the fact that it seems braid hilda was a hit on us fans and artist, most new art has been of her lol
>She teases david and gets more than she bargains for
>only one who has drawn hilda in stockings instead of leggings is mangamaster, and its all abuse-art
feels bad, man
What do you mean stockings not leggings anon?
They Eiffel Tower her
Don't worry, I'm working on it.
Is it me or is the animation unusually smooth? Did they AI it up to 60fps?
That's just Mercury Filmworks magic
>white man
>brown woman
Why is this ship everywhere these days
The "non-binary" character is a horrible frog-like creature that kills people and eats children.
What did Mercury mean by this?
To be fair it's revealed that it finds humans to make for bad food so all is forgiven.
>Gender ambiguity
>non-binary
But they referred of him as a male
>get fricking eaten
>"oops, you taste bad"
Kino episode otherwise, but that was a bit convenient, don't you think?
Not to mention that thing probably eats other magical creatures
>doesn't realize they're humans until after tasting then
So what was the deal with him?
Thought it was funny
It's foreshadowing for Hilda and Johanna having magical heritage. They probably looked and smelled enough like fairies for the thing to think they were fairies.
Anyone else notice how weirdly good the animation got during the scene when Hilda found she was part fairy and got excited in the finale? I found there was a lot of shots in S3 that look much more cinematic than S1 and S2, especially in the final episode.
The animation for the show has always been great, a benefit of being produced by Mercury Filmworks rather than an offshore koream sweatshop and the two year gaps between seasons.
even in the casual scenes they're a lot more fluid and 3-dimensional. the series animation gets continually better throughout. S2 was better than 1, Mountain King better than 2, this season had better animation was Mountain King.
Because anon, they pussy out AND used 3D models that's why, this season has parts in 3D, its just stylized, something your small fry size brain cant comprehend.
They did that in the first 2 seasons too
>no anime references at all throughout this entire series
Is this the only modern western cartoon to do this, besides Genndy's stuff? I'm impressed the show never ditched it's folklore roots.
that and in general no references to modern culture. No dab, no memes, no modern movies or music.
Just couple of stuff like the reference to Ghostbusters but that's a classical movie.
I think that's why Hilda is so beloved; it didn't try to copy anime or pretend to be something it isn't. It's a show that knows what it is and works with it. It may have never been too popular but we're going to see it be considered a serious contender for the best western cartoons of all time and it'll remembered the same way other cult hits like Courage the Cowardly Dog are.
Pretty sure they actually do play modern music but it tends to be the very obscure kind that only has like 100 views on Youtube
https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQALBzTmG8J6iPz9VjfMyTl7iB8noHOyX&si=IsJIZP1BeKtqTP4U
>or music
Grimes made the opening music. At the very least she didn't sing anything, just backing vocals.
I mean like putting some popular song out of nowhere, like k-pop or some shit.
I'm glad the show only used original music or music from indie artists.
What went right? How did they make a modern western cartoon that was consistent in quality from beginning to end? It may be the rare 10/10 I give to a show.
Shows like Hilda to watch that aren't Gravity Falls, Over the Garden Wall, or Moomins?
You should look into the works of Alexander Robert, Patrick McHale and Tove Jansson.
>tfw you want to recommend Cinemaphile shit like Hilda right down to the atmosphere and pacing but don't want to summon the Eva or Haruhi shit here
https://youtube.com/shorts/vBcZ21R6XMY?si=NLEA29deaTz0UegD
did you call?
What other anime do you like other then EVA?
Rozen Maiden to name a few
Do you like any comfy moeshit?
not really
Trolberg 3
go on and recommend it Cinemaphilenon, i need to start watching anime
Here's a few to check out:
>Yotsuba (2003): A cheerful, energetic five-year-old girl named moves into a new neighborhood with her adoptive father and enjoys life everyday.
Not an anime but worth checking out. You probably already know it though.
>Gochuisa (2014): In a small European town, a host of young girls work at a rabbit cafe while living their daily lives.
The atmosphere and coziness is very similar to Hilda's, though this one may not be for you for various reasons.
>Made in Abyss (2017): An explorer girl, a robot boy, and a rabbit-like thing explore the vast abyss in the depth of Earth.
A very (in)famous anime. You'll either love it or hate it. It can get gruesome.
>Girls' Last Tour (2017): After an apocalypse, the last two girls of humanity traverse through what is left of their world while trying to survive to reach the top of the world.
My favorite anime of all time. Very melancholy and comfy in a Luke Pearson way. I recommend the manga as the anime doesn't cover the full story. The ending will make you cry.
>Yuru Camp (2018): A group of high school girls go camping around Japan to visit various campsites.
I'm surprised this and Hilda don't overlap since they were released in the same year. Very comfy and cozy for a Hilda fan to like it.
>Shadows House (2021): A mystery horror about a mansion doll and her shadow mistress counterpoint who both begin to unearth the dark secrets of their home.
The more European style and overarching story sounds like something a Hilda enjoyer would dig.
>Frieren (2023): An immoral elf mage is left spending decades exploring and learning magic while her companions age and die. She embarks on a journey with the orphan of her dying companion to teach her magic.
Currently airing. The slow pacing and fantasy aspects might make you interested.
I mainly went for anime that have things similar to Hilda (characters, tone, pacing, style, atmosphere). I couldn't include everything, but these are the main ones.
>literally nothing but anime for pedophiles
Never change, Cinemaphile.
>literally nothing but anime for pedophiles
Abyss aside, none of the shit can even apply to your statement.
I'm the only one who likes frida more this season?
No. I never disliked her, but she was certainly more likable this season.
S2 > S1 > S3 (all three are good)
Molly won
...at being a shitty show. S2 was embarrassing
Lol.
Lmao even.
S3 was good even though Pearson was partially against it.
Bald And Bankrupt wasted an opportunity on s2 AND they still begging for an s3.
>we live in the timeline where Hilda actually got a good ending and Molly is set to have a shit ending on top of a lackluster second season
it feels good
I actually liked molly but I can agree as soon as they added the boy Molly went pretty down hill, like I usually like my straight ships but he's just meh. The season itself just isn't as good as S1 and really I'd say most of molly's flaw was dropping it's main premise depressing/kind of evil ghost and good girl then it became just good girl and good ghost as the season progressed. Now without the rules scratch has become even less of a anti molly as he doesn't need to scare or anything. I remember when people speculated that Scratch would be forced to scare molly for his assignment. It lost a lot of it's edge and bite sadly now I really am not following the eps as dedicatedly as before.
>ghost
I keep seeing this image a lot, I've never watched Molly and I really don't get what it means
The ghost isn't actually a ghost.
I've heard this was fake, so until I see the ep I won't pay attention. But yeah everyone guessed it, the finale drops in like a month or so? we'll all see then.
Better to ignore it and either watch for yourself or just live in blissful ignorance.
A few people have already seen the finale and know the ending to the series. There's a high chance it gets leaked before the end of the year if the guy who has it gets the money for it. Either way, S3 is NOT happening.
oh yeah where can you watch that finale I kept hearing about it
It hasn't leaked yet, but probably will soon
>There's a high chance it gets leaked before the end of the year if the guy who has it gets the money for it.
What kinda loser is gonna be shelling out money to watch an episode a couple weeks early
It might be fake but there was also a clearly real leak that was related to the same twist so it doesn't matter
>ending with the protagonist’s supernatural friend turning into a human
That’s the kind of shit people would make fun of ten years ago
>tfw we will never get the third Mercury girl to complete the trilogy
model source?
Finished watching. Absolute kino. Glad I didn't have time to rewatch S2 and the movie first, meaning I have more Hilda to look forward to before Christmas. Yeah, I've seen it before, but it's been three years, so I forgot most of the details.
Finally was able to finish S3. I liked it a lot. I have to admit, it feels much more disconnected than previous seasons because of so many things revealed somewhat out of nowhere. The aunt, dad, and fairy. It was much more connected as a season though compared to others with a more central conflict and reoccurring themes.
It's still peak comfy and amazing. Finale was a little rough and somewhat rushed, but they did well with 8 episodes compared to the normal 13.
The Pooka is top tier.
Why did you post this picture of a completely unrelated convincing human?
Pookenheimer
I STILL can't believe I made a cameo in this show.
Speaking of which, could I perhaps borrow a spatula and a pair of crocs? For reasons I don't feel like explaining.
Is Hilda the only western cartoon of the last five years Cinemaphile unanimously likes and agrees is good?
There's inevitably going to be a Cinemaphilentrarian backlash at some point where this board will pretend the show is overrated or was never good in the first place.
That and Puss on boots 2 is the only time where people actually like without being contrarian buttholes on Cinemaphilemplaint.
Cinemaphile definitely b***hed about Puss in Boots 2 once it became popular
Piss in boots was shit and I've held this opinion since day one
>didn't overstay it's welcome like Adventure Time or Loud House
>didn't have a rushed second season like Gravity Falls
>didn't have a bad second season like Molly McGee
>didn't have a bad third season like Amphibia
>didn't plagiarize anime to hell and back like Steven Universe or Owl House
>didn't have an irredeemable ending that ruins the entire show like Star Vs
I wouldn't say it's a perfect show, but it was great and consistent, and never had any seasonal rot even if some parts of it were better than others. On par with Over the Garden Wall.
Hilda had the advantage of being a streaming service which meant having a limited episode count that allowed the writers to be really tight with the story and animation quality.
Meamwhile a show like Amphibia has to contend with network guidelines and orders of 20 episodes per season, which they then have to mass produce in a koream sweatshop studio.
I think a lot of these story cartoons would have benefited from having Hilda's structure of only having 10-13 episodes per season.
I feel if Hilda was a Disney Channel or Cartoon Network show, it would have been much less melancholic and a more traditional work of a post-Adventure Time kids show with further deep lore, lol random humor, and constant anime influence. Hilda would probably have needed to save the Trolberg from an evil villain using a fairy anime power up and by the end we get a timeskip where Hilda leaves her friends and family behind to return to the woods. Also there would be a rich girl rival that gets redeemed and some kind of old grandparent mentor with hidden secrets, as well as shit like a body swap episode between the kids and Kaisa hooking up with another librarian.
Also she'd die for like two minutes
>why was Hilda kino?
Because it was sincere and took itself seriously, while sticking with its motif. It wasn't trying to be self aware about the world or characters with a quip every other second about the magical creatures or adventures. Even in S3, it felt genuine and never irony-poisoned. It worked as well as it did because it wasn't ashamed of being a western animated series made in the current day and actually stuck to the core of its story and themes the whole way through. They didn't abandon the folklore influence to become a great value anime. It also helps there is barely any filler and had great pacing. I think that's why it stands the test of time all these years later; it has flaws, but it had fricking soul, and you can't convince me otherwise it didn't. It's one of the most unique pieces of western animation out there; the rare kids cartoon that isn't a comedy.
I'm glad that shit didn't happen. I was worried it was going to.
I can't imagine a show like Hilda airing on Disney Channel. It's too different from DTVA's line up to fit in.
>I was worried it was going to
Why?
Because it's a trend with modern cartoons
I can’t think of any past Amphibia and owl house
I mean Johanna stayed dead for at least a minute
too bad there wasn't a lesbian reveal for hilda
>People kept doomposting for years that Kaisa would be a lesbian in S3
>she is barely in S3
Monkey's paw
>It also helps there is barely any filler and had great pacing.
It can't really have filler and bad pacing when 90% of it is monster of the week.
They kind of did it with Johanna tho
>some kind of old grandparent mentor with hidden secrets
Now that I think about that actually is weirdly common in Disney cartoons
Hilda actually was nearly picked up by Disney, to the point they were already comissioning various animation tests. They chickened out at the last minute but it's interesting to ponder what the show would have been like under Disney Channel
In another timeline, this show was on Disney and Molly was on Netflix
Dodged a bullet honestly
what do you think it would have been called if it was picked up by Disney? cause you know they wouldn't settle for just "Hilda"
it'd be something stupid like Hilda: Trolberg Chronicles
or something similarly stupid or long-winded
I mean, a lot of Disney shows have protagonist names without a subtitle
>Darkwing Duck
>Kim Possible
>Phineas and Ferb
>Pickle and Peanut
>The Ghost and Molly McGee
>Kiff
Ducktales didn't have a subtitle either
And a lot more fart jokes
Parts of the DTVA version of Hilda:
>All American voice cast
>Twig talks like Scratch or Stan
>Johanna and Kaisa aren't hot anymore
>We spend too many episodes at the school instead of adventures
>Bodyswap episode. We get scenes of Hilda and David switching bodies, and Kaisa in Twig's body
>Anime references and homages every episode
>Meta humor
The show's art style would have apparently looked like this under Disney, at least at the time animation tests were being commissioned by the network
ngl I like the way it looks
Cute but not as a good as the final product
Something doing mercury film works style for this show is so kino and visual appealing it’s like eye candy and so comfy
>Clone High by Mercury Filmworks never ever
>I think a lot of these story cartoons would have benefited from having Hilda's structure of only having 10-13 episodes per season.
All of them would. 20 episodes works for something more episodic and formulaic. But it's total ass for a serialized series.
Western cartoons that had the same quality from start to finish:
>Courage the Cowardly Dog
>Codename: Kids Next Door
>Wander over Yonder
>Over the Garden Wall
>Hilda
What else to add?
Fraggles (Puppet ones), Moomins
What makes him so based?
>What makes him so based?
The baldness he hides with a combover.
He's just like us for real.
He looks like a Linux user
>Hilda is picked up by Disney in 2018 instead of Netflix, is still animated by Mercury though their friendship with DTVA, and still has three seasons, except this time each one is 20 episodes per season, and there aren't year-long hiatuses
What changes?
the animation and characters lose their souls to the mouse
There would at least be a storyline where Trollberg undergoes some apocalypse due to some powerful entity taking over and all the characters form a resistance to stop it
>powerful entity
So the Marra?
No, they would probably be part of the resistance. What's a scandinavian creature or entity powerful enough to wreck or take over a city?
Nidhogg And Grendel are terrible beast that can be creatures that take over cities easily especially the first creatures said to be the underworld version of destruction itself
Swedish version of the Nix is evil as hell and incredibly powerful(basically a deity in his own right depending on the depiction), but keeps to his rivers and their whereabouts, so not him.
If they were to fully delve into Norse myth, Surtr would definitely be the highest point of escalation
>Giant with a fiery sword destructive enough to end the world (and take himself out in the process)
Interestingly, Surtr is not necessarily meant to be the most powerful of the beings that attack during Ragnarök. Freyr, with his personal weapon, would have been capable of taking him on.
Meanwhile, Thor, the greatest fighter amongst the gods, only draws with Jormungandr, and Fenrir only loses to the second strongest god(Vidarr, god of vengeance and retribution) after killing Oden, and that god has a magical shoe meant for this fight. Fenrir also cracks the sky when opening his jaw.
The weaker wolves Skoll and Hati eat the sun and moon.
Also Gravity Falls, and Star Vs., and technically Molly McGee even though it lasts literally five minutes.
Everything I feared that would happen to Hilda ended up occurring to Molly instead
What were the things you were fearing would happen?
It becoming a bad show. If Hilda S2 and S3 were written by Billbob:
>Hilda would get a lame ass love interest
>Most of the episodes would just be Hilda and Johanna in their house with Tontu dicking around
>Show forgets about everyone but Hilda and her boyfriend
>No emotional depth or compelling themes
>The villains are the Marra except they suck ass
>Penultimate episode has Hilda become a troll with her friends to stop Trolberg from being destroyed from them
>Series finale is about the magical creatures all becoming human
>S3 doesn't even exist
I actually like that Molly is going to be one of those shows with an ending that gets remembered for how much people hate it. Better than fading into the mists of mediocrity like it otherwise would’ve
>Penultimate episode has Hilda become a troll with her friends to stop Trolberg from being destroyed from them
That's literally the plot of Mountain King
Expect we get troll forms of Frida, David, Johanna, and Kaisa
>the other characters get a finale super form like the main character that lasts one minute and doesn't amount to anything
>the final battle is just beating up the villain's minions before the big bad
You forgot that Hilda will have a ultra supersonic plus ultra super Saiyan God blue form to fly the Godlike entity to save the world
>11 minute episode segments rather than full 24 minute eps
>Probably more subplots with the characters
>Mean girl bully character who immediately gets redeemed or becomes nice
>Hilda's extended family would appear more and have larger roles
>Season one's stakes are relatively grounded, by season three they're trying to save the world
>Animation would be stiffer since they're essentially producing 30-40 episodes every season
>Characters singing every episode
>Hilda gets a male love interest (not David, probably some OC designed for that purpose) while some minor character is subtly confirmed to be gay
>Bigger emphasis on a moral message each episode
>Mean girl bully character who immediately gets redeemed or becomes nice
100% would be Twintails
>Hilda gets a male love interest
Another kid who lived in the woods expect male
>Some minor character is subtly confirmed to be gay
Kaisa
>Bigger emphasis on a moral message each episode
Didn't the Hilda we get do this, or am I miss-remembering?
>Didn't the Hilda we get do this, or am I miss-remembering?
Kind of but not to the extent that Disney Channel shows do sometimes where it's like they're trying to spell out the themes to a toddler.
>the extent that Disney Channel shows do sometimes where it's like they're trying to spell out the themes to a toddler
any examples of this
Amphibia, like in the S3 premiere and the characters keep repeating about how much more responsible Anne is.
>the most responsible thing you can do as a 13 year-old is have a nice day while your friends and family tearfully beg you not to
Isn't the whole show like that? It doesn't help it always seemed like a diet anime to me.
Well yeah, that's the point. If Hilda was a DTVA show then it would be similar
>If Hilda was a DTVA show
It wouldn't be one of the best animated shows of all time, that's for sure. DTVA shows feel the same and stale with the same formula everytime.
>Happy go lucky female main character who tries to make the world a better place
>Non-human sidekick to appeal to the male or adult audience
>The main character's family being the integral side characters despite being boring as sin
>The most interesting characters barely appear in the show itself
>Always being 11 minute episode segments paired together
>Forgettable songs in every episode that serve no propose
>Generic rich mean girl character archetype who gets redeemed by the second season
>Love interest introduced in the first season or at the start of the second season to shake up the status quo
>Talking down to the audience with their themes and moral messages shoehorned in without subtly
>Starts out in the first season as a goofy slice of life, serialized by the second season, "deep" by the finale or third season
>emotional crux that acts as the breaking point in the season one finale and must be saved
>cringe dialogue and humor and anime references that makes the show dated by the time it ends
>the same bald, stale cookie cutter art style that looks like one artist made it
Also the season 1 finale is always about the main girl's loved one getting kidnapped and her breaking into the bad guy's inner sanctum like a badass to save them
Yeah when I first watched Amphibia a couple years ago it was one of the things that really stuck out to me about it, the way they'd telegraph the 'message' of each episode at the end like a toddler show. I think there was less of it in s2 though, never watched s3
>Hilda gets a male love interest (not David, probably some OC designed for that purpose)
Davidbros….. . . .We are so lucky
It's too bad the raven never got to interact with Frida.
We talk about Hilda is the rare western cartoon to never have seasonal rot, but in terms in Netflix originals, was it the only one that was constant?
Why does she wear a beret if she’s not French?
It's Hilda's lucky hat
Did not realize so many people in this thread had an axe to grind with DTVA
Almost like Hilda mogs everything DTVA has made after they became the Phineas and Ferb and Gravity Falls clone network. Molly could have been better then it but falls apart after S1 hard
>seething
Thread really got ruined by the mere mention of disney
Amphibia and Molly have way more flaws and problems then Hilda does
It essentially just boils down to
Streaming > Cable
being better for animation, which tragically ironic since Metflix wants to veer away from that and instead be more like cable
>Mollycels seething at S3 and making up lies about it on /trash/ such as Frida being the main focus
lmao, how is that S3 of TGAMM going
Name a better finale. I'll wait.
>No deus ex machina asspulls like Avatar
>No big sacrifice resolved immediately like Gravity Falls
>No controversial shit just to shock us like Star and Voltron
>No "oh shit the hero died but not really" like Amphibia and Owl House
>No "oh shit the hero died but not really" like Amphibia
I thought people's issue was that was that she did actually die but got impersonated by a clone
>No "oh shit the hero died but not really" like Amphibia and Owl House
They pulled that shit with Johanna
>No big sacrifice resolved immediately like Gravity Falls
>No "oh shit the hero died but not really" like Amphibia and Owl House
Aren't those the same thing?
and no Wraith ending like TGAMM
WHAT DOES THE WRAITH ENDING MEEEEAAAAAN
An ending pertaining to a wraith
Molly’s ghost bff who she constantly hugs and draws with hearts and was willing to spend an eternity in Hell with is not actually a ghost but instead a very much alive human man named Todd who lives probably within a mile of her house.
Bruh
>Hilda’s dad moving to Trollberg and swapping out the baby Hilda pic with teen Hilda
Thought that was a nice little touch. Initially thought that he was going to be forgotten about for most of the episode (which he was once he got out of the Mound) but nice to see that he’s trying to be better.
>Mfw no more Hilda to watch.
you know what bothers me?
Hilda didn't get to expend more time with her grandparents. She was barely half a day with them and already tried "resolving things" by talking to the witch or whatever was that.
I get Twig and Frida and David were in a hurry too, but I wish she could have stayed a little longer to pass time with them.
Felt the same way about them and with her dad. While I’m glad with what we got I would have like the 13 episodes the previous seasons had instead of what was effectively 7 plus a mini-movie.
>ywn have this
Imagine having a twink grandpa
?si=9hTk1NOBLFYAGPcq
Can we talk about how fricking the soundtrack is because every time I hear it, I remembered the times before Covid and how life was easier and nostalgic for me.
Does anyone have the same experience with listening to this OST?
What’s the song used in the end scene.
It so good it’s stuck in my head
Hey remember when Frida's voice actress leaked the series finale two years ago back in September 2021?
>black
>let's get it
>0 iq
it's like pottery
Pottery
dumb question, but does anyone have all of saltongreens deleted art?
seems like everything they made before 2022 is just gone
>no timeskip with adult designs
I'm glad. That means Hilda will always remain a child, and we don't have to deal with idiots on twitter complaining about sexualizing the adult designs.
Do You think they going to make more Hilda movies? cuz I don't want to.
Absolutely not considering Netflix
Given the third season was pretty much the only material to never come from the comics, I’m holding out hope we might get one more film or a special in a few years time. But I know the chances of that happening are slim to none.
I kinda like the idea of Hilda's kid thinking their mum is a super adventurer badass. Until things really go bad and Hilda has to call on her own mum for save the two of them from something
Then Johanna goes full Ellen Ripley mode like she did against the spiderfrog
Hilda being a fraud like hawk is kinda based to be honest and how she needs Johanna-SAMA for help
?si=48okWPdQAfRclmjc
>one of the things that seems to interest their kid is that hilda was an adventurer and the bravest person on the planet
>the mystique is broken when she learns that the marra got her so scared she cried
>when she gets into trouble her is to call johanna. further breaking the mental image of the bravest adventurer in trollberg
>since david is david, she ends up idolizing grandmum johanna
>the irony is not lost on hilda or david
>in the end, hilda, david, and johanna all team up to rescue their kid after an 11-minute altercation with dangerous magical beings
>hilda shows cleverness while david just beats things with a shovel, johanna has a gun
>kid has newfound appreciation for hilda and david
my urge to rewatch a show has never been higher
>giants are.... le good!
This is moronic. They step on people and their houses with indifference but notice hilda enough to tell her how oppressed they are
Can't help it if they're naturally thicc
i mean how many bugs have you crush walking in your life and you didn't even notice
>not having the media literacy to understand a kids show
hilda doesnt want to move away from her house because she feels that the elves are being unfair to her
so she moves heaven and earth to get a permit and prove she is a good person to the elves
but in the end, even though the giants are good people and not malicious, their mere presence destroys hildas house
this is why hilda has a sobering moment when she looks at the crushed house and then back to the elven house she is stepping on
in the end, it doesnt matter if hilda is good or if the giants are good
they have to move for everyones sake, its sad but thats the way things are
Damn, that's one giant ass.
Someone didn't watch episodes 1 and 2 of the show
He's literally me.
I'm sorry for your fairy ADHD autistic kid and fairy ADHDH autistic wife
no wonder johanna left him
how did she even let this old ugly bastard pump her
He wouldn't have been old all those years ago when they met
Probably came off as this cool exciting adventurer dude before she realised he valued that lifestyle more than he did family
He was 13 years younger when he fricked her.
And she was 10 years younger than him. He took advantage of her innocence and her fairy autism and ADHD to pump his seed into undeveloped teen Johanna before dipping
Deadbeat man should have stayed in fairy country to sacrifice his pathetic life to save his mother's daughter
Makes sense actually she had abandonment issues and daddy issues, also add on to that trauma and major gaps in her memory and childhood. Young Johanna was really easy pickings, if it wasn't him it'd have been someone worse. The sad thing is with Johanna's issues specifically the desperation for normalcy fear of the unknown and abandonment issues that probably morphed into insecurities and needs to please the people she loved. Anders abandoning her and hilda was probably more heart breaking for Johanna than hilda, hilda just got used too it and coped because it was her normal life but johanna probably for a long time thought it was just her and she was unloveable.
Johanna deserve better, like me.
so are johanna and kaisa secretly in love?
>new season of Hilda releases
>threads dead
It's Hildover
Don't say Hildaover yet. It's not over until Hilda says so.
Fionna and Cake got renewed recently
It was simply too kino for there to be anything to talk about. They didn't pull any controversial bullshit to shock us. No last minute lesbians or other politics to rage about. Hilda is 25% fairy and that's about it.
>. Hilda is 25% fairy and that's about it.
Thanks Christ it didn’t end with last minute lesbians, I am so sick of that crap.
I assume Hilda and Johanna could only fly in the fairy world
Which means Hilda's probably gonna break her ankle trying to do it again back home
Why is everybody brown?
the future is now old man, whiteys are the minority now
Every main character except Frida is white, so they had to fill the diversity quota with background characters. Pretty much the only thing "woke" about the show.
because the setting is europe in 2023?
Late 80s to mid 90s technically, although it is an alternate universe Europe where magical creatures are the norm.
Why did all the lil Black folks shun her?
Any swimsuits?
