Will we be seeing other parts of Hilda's world in Season 3?
In "Hilda: The Trolberg Stories" bind-up book, there's a short comic about Raven, which he talks about where he'd go after he left Hilda.
Tumblr media
The locations that were mentioned are:
- The Crimson Aurora
- The Great Steppes
- Sakhiba City ( Arab World - likely Saudi Arabia? )
- The Overglades - Mizuki Festival ( Japan )
- Wera Wera Beach
- Soria Moria Castle
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
As far as i know, none of these locations are near Trolberg.
If you have also noticed, the locations with country's names in it also have their own spirits / creatures, confirming that Trolberg is not the only place with fictional / mythologies beings living with people.

I was looking at some Hilda stuff and saw some maps of trolberg/tofoten/the wilderness (huldrawood???) and I was reminded of I think what was one of your notes on Plenism where you were taking about naming stuff and I was very curious on where you'd place the places you came up with in reference to this stuff. (Also Plenism is so good).
OKAY first of all thank u sm i’m glad ur enjoying Plenism! Second of all oh boy anon you have just opened the BIGGEST can of worms, prepare yourself, i’m about to get real neurodivergent 
So one of the things that has always confused and slightly annoyed me in Hilda is the inconsistent scale of it all. Trolberg, for example, is described as being this massive sprawling city, so far out and separate from the wilderness that it’s a completely new world for Hilda, and has it’s own unique holidays and celebrations. 
But, if you look at a map of Trolberg it really doesn’t look that big, and the more ou learn about it the smaller it seems?? In the show, driving from Trolberg to the wilderness seems to take no time at all, and like the second you leave the wall it’s immediately greenery and wilderness lol. The city itself is crawling with nature! And it only gets more confusing when you read tie-in material, especially Hilda’s World. 
The maps in this book are beautifully illustrated and contain almost all of the important locations seen in the show, but they make Trolberg seem tiny! And, according to this book, Trolberg has only one school, and one sparrow scout troop. Now I live in the absolute middle of nowhere, tiny island 4 hours away from the mainland. I went to school in a little town on the mainland, so small it was like barely a town, and it had 4 schools and a college just within the town (i.e. not counting the neighbourin villages and more rural schools), and 4-5 scout troops. This place was TINY, cities have WAY more, but Trolberg apparently only has one of each! Also, according to this book, Tofoten is so close to Trolberg that it’s considered an attraction for Trolberg visitors. What. 
There’s a pretty simple explanation for this - there’s just no point in making more. From a creative perspective, Trolberg doesn’t need multiple schools or sparrow scout troops when the story only requires on each, it would be pointless! And when it comes to tie in bokos like Hilda’s World, 90% of people don’t actually want an extensive guide to the innerworkings of a fictional town, they just wanna see the places they got to know in the show. Same logic applies to the distance between Trolberg and The Wilderness, no one wants to watch Johanna and Hilda driving for 5 hours lmao, it’s just easier to skip that and make the journey seem shorter. Having locations be nearer eachother makes it easier for characters to quickly move around. 
But. I’m deranged. I NEED detailed world building I REQUIRE detailed descriptions of how this place works I NEED to understand these character’s lives and what their day to day is like, sooo for Plenism and my general Laurenverse I have taken some creative liberties. I haven’t gotten rid of anything from the show, just sort of went “Yes, and—”
First things first I don’t consider Hilda’s World canon lol. In the sense that I don’t consider it to be the in universe guide to Trolberg and beyond it presents itself as, it’s just a fun lil silly book with gorgeous artwork !! I’ve kinda ragged on this book a bit but, i genuinely do love it it’s so pretty.
SO, I’ve upped the scale of Trolberg quite considerably. Hilda’s school is just one of many (Glasgow, the biggest city in Scotland, at a glance seems to have over 100 primary schools, so yeah), as is her Sparrow Scout Troop. It’s big enough that Hilda hasn’t even come close to seeing the whole city, and the area she and her family move into is pretty much brand new to Johanna and Lauren, who previously lived in a totally different side of the city. 
Hilda’s old cabin, which I’ll call “Folke Cottage”, is approximately a 4-5 hour drive from Trolberg. This is to help drive home the isolation the lil family has living out in the wilderness. 
Speaking of The Wilderness, I gave it a name - Frihäf! In the context of the show, the wilderness doesn’t really need a name (despite how frustrating it can be sometimes when key characters remain nameless for entire seasons, or in some cases the entire show, i actually like the element of realism the show creates by leaving certain characters unnamed. People don’t always ask eachother their names lol, especially kids! Idk i think its neat), but for Plenism I felt it needed one. Frihäf isn’t really a specific place, it’s just the name for this general wilderness area that the family live in, probably encompassing about a…1 hour to 2 hour radius? I’m bad at geography. 
The next important location, this one unique to Plenism, is Tågstad! This is a little village about an hour away from Folke Cottage, and 3-4 from Trolberg. It has a little post office and shop, where Johanna can obtain essentials, but in order to get a lot of supplies, they have to go shopping in Trolberg. So, to avoid having to take baby Hilda into Trolberg, Johanna drives Lauren to Tågstad, where she then takes the train into Trolberg, get’s the shopping, and then comes back where Johanna picks her up. From Folke Cottage, Tågstad is the nearest stop on the train to Trolberg, and the little town acts as a “gateway” to many different destinations, such as Toføten, which, from Tågstad, is about 4-5 hours in the opposite direction from Trolberg, I think.
This is all very boring and technical, hence why the actual show didn’t bother with it lol, but I enjoy thinking of these technicalities! Maybe one day I’ll whip up a lil map or something, but even then i’ll prolly run into the same problem the canon maps do where everything seems very small in scale lol.
Oh, btw, Gröttavux is another town name that gets mentioned in The Roundabout, but I don’t have anything about it lol, I just needed another place name or Johanna to say whilst rambling to add in a cheeky wee bit of realism. Umm the only other thing I know about my Trolberg world building so far is that there’s multiple train stations within the city, one of them spits you out nearby some sort of shopping street or market, so that Lauren can easily access it without having to go too deep into the city, effectively restricting her Trolberg exploration to just one street, therefore still maintaining her disconnect from the city, so it’s still a difficult transition come season 1. 
THANK U FOR ASKING THIS and letting me ramble about this shit, makes my brain very happy :). I might expand upon this more in future chapters of Plenism, but it depend! I have to be very careful to avoid dumping exposition on ppl when writing Plenism bc god damnit i would if i could. I’d write a whole chapter thats just johanna talking about the geography of the world. Thank you and goodnight

Trolberg Public Transit Logo
Since we know that Trolberg has a bus network and a Tram Network in the past as seen in the series.
I will assume that there is a company running it.
Any resemblances to actual logos are coincidental.

Here is the final illustration of my Past, Present and Future series. Hope you will enjoy 'Future'! I do want to say I highly referenced the city of Trolberg from one of the official illustration so credit go to who made that. I liked Hilda with her ponytail so gave her this look instead of her long and lose hair. For Twig I tried to find a middle ground with the adult deerfoxes , while trying to keep his overall design intact. Hope you all like it!

#RadyoBanderaEXCLUSIVE: The Final 3rd Season of Hilda is in the works by Fall 2023 on Netflix
Tumblr media
(Written by Rhayniel Saldasal Calimpong / Freelanced News Writer, Reporter and Presenter of OneNETnews)
TROLBERG, SCANDINAVIA -- A British-Canadian cartoon show Hilda nears its conclusion with the upcoming 3rd and Final Season. Fans of the show were taken by surprise with this seriously unexpected news.

In a recent advertisement from Penguin Random House (PRH), who was obtained by an undisclosed digital media insider; including one internet sleuth YouTuber, and also the online media insider individual in Los Angeles, California named ReyGGTV (whose real name as Randy Garita), it appears that the American streaming service called Netflix may have been release the show by Fall 2023 from a screengrab image, which was not independently verified to Radyo Bandera.
Tumblr media
(COVER PHOTO COURTESY: HildaTheSeries via FB Photo / Stills from a Final Season 3 opening of Hilda on Netflix)
Additionally, the last opening intro for Season 3 was sought-after in the city of Trolberg and reportedly seen on Facebook's cover photo (which is owned by Meta Platforms Inc.).
In addition to the Final Season, 3 new graphic novels have also been obtained by Randy himself entitled "Laughing Merman", "Faratok Tree" & "Fairy Village", which expected to be released in November 2023. These novels are part of 'Hilda: The Series' provided by a graphic novel publisher Flying Eye Books (FEB).
Tumblr media
(FILE GRAPHIC NOVEL PHOTO COURTESY: Google Images)
Before the independent cartoon show on Netflix, there was a novel called 'Aubépine' & 'Aster', which served as a source of inspiration for Hilda. Show Creator named Luke Pearson, along with the animated production companies Silvergate Media and Mercury Filmworks, have granted to secure the streaming rights through Netflix in the United States of America (U.S.A.). The 3rd season of Hilda consists of 13 episodes, each with a runtime of 22 minutes. The actual release date might later change, but it is expected to coincide with the Christmas season or early Q1 2024.
Some reliable sources and insider individuals told exclusively to Radyo Bandera that the British-Canadian animated series on Netflix is fully legitimate, unless there is an accidental statement by default. Fans of the show are so alarming, because of a release date have already been leaked out Friday night (September 1st, 2023).
Tumblr media
(FILE MOVIE POSTER COURTESY: Google Images)
Regardless onto this, streaming fans are excited to explore Hilda's adventurous world one last time in Trolberg City, Scandinavia as the 3rd season approaches, leading after a new movie released of The Mountain King late-last December 2021 as a series follow-up -- despite for Season 3 release date is worth the wait before the Holiday season starts.
The new and final 3rd Season of Hilda streams this Fall 2023 at 12 MIDNIGHT (Pacific local time), only on Netflix.

"Reference only": 'The Librarian' and Archives in the world of 'Hilda' [Part 3]
Continued from part 2
Tumblr media
Alfur’s help is needed to read the tiny print.
The next scene in the library, in the same episode, shows her invisible labor has manifested. Before that, there are some great lines, one by Hilda who declares haughtily that her enchantment isn't dangerous because is from a "library book for goodness sake." Seriously, Hilda, you think all the books in the library are good? Because it sounds like that is what she is saying. Yikes. Anyway, I loved how Alfie of the overly-bureaucratic elves, which reminds me a lot of the Vogans in The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, criticized Hilda for not reading the footnotes, adding "Never, ever, ignore a footnote." When they enter the library, Frida expresses her surprise that the special collections room existed, making it clear it really is hidden, while Alfie declares that "Libraries are thrilling temples of the unexpected." It is then it is shown that the book has been re-shelved and the librarian is nowhere in sight. If that isn't invisible labor, I don't know what is. I also loved this discussion of footnotes as a person who loves adding as many sources as possible and research, sometimes too much:
Frida: “Ok, let’s find out what it says in the footnote.” [She finds the footnote, Frida gasps, adding:] “It’s a whole page of info!” Hilda: “It's probably a lot of blah, blah, blah, right? Who would print anything important in a footnote?” [Alfie is aghast, says:] “Whoever wrote this book, that’s who!”
Reprinted from my Wading Through the Cultural Stacks WordPress blog. Originally published on Sept. 23, 2020.
Later in the episode, as they continue to read through the book, there are even more hilarious lines:
Hilda: “Is there another footnote?” Alfie: “No, but [looks at page:] there is an asterisk!” [Frida turns to appendix 1; After Frida says how small the print is, Alfie pulls out his glasses, saying] Alfie: “It’s a masterpiece of confusing clauses, for sure.” [Hilda realizes that she is a witch by enchanting her friends and Alfie continues reading the fine print:] “There’s a footnote to the asterisk of the footnote!”
After Alfie continues reading, they produce a plan to lift the enchantment and save her friends.
Then there is the episode "The Ghost." Hilda, David, and Frida travel to the Trolberg library to get information on ghosts. The librarian helps them, with some reticence, and continues a macabre conversation. [2] After she recites the location of the ghost, from memory, which is amazing, she decides to double-check herself, scoffing at Hilda's remark she "memorized every grave." In order to do so, she grabs climbs a ladder, then grabs a book of Trolberg city records, and ends up reciting the same thing she had said earlier! After that, she gives Hilda the right materials so she can raise the dead, which she happens to have on her. This raises the strong possibility she is a witch and/or has magical powers. The use of the city records is the only archivy element of the episode, while her ability to serve her patrons is a quality archivists often share as well. As the SAA points out, archivists should "expand access and usage opportunities for users, and potential users, of archival records," while serving various stakeholders and constituencies.
Sadly, the librarian doesn't have a role in any other episodes and neither does this special collections room. However, we do see the librarian walking across the streets of Trolberg in the show’s last episode, "The Black Hound," and according to her voice actor, and other previews, she is entering (and within) a cave in the show’s upcoming season for an unspecified reason. This lends credibility to the theory she is a witch who is teaching Hilda how to use magic/be a witch, who has some goth vibes. I think it's less likely she is a vampire, like Marcy or Hilda from the future, but sure, we can say she gives off "gay vibes." [3] I personally think the latter is a little presumptive only because her screen time has been very limited, and she is a very mysterious character at the present. In any case, I remain excited about the upcoming season this fall and hope she gets a bigger role than she has in the current season. As always, I look forward to your comments.

[2] This includes lines like "...the good thing about loved ones is they eventually die too. Then, everybody’s together again. That’s why the hardest thing about dying is leaving all your stuff behind.” It makes me think of death positivity and the resident death positive genealogist I know, Becks Kobel, who runs a blog known as The Hipster Historian.
[3] I mean, two animated characters I can think of who have multicolored hair are either bisexual (Glimmer in She-Ra) or lesbian (Amity in The Owl House).

Hilda storyboard artists be seeing "Safety Patrol" on the script and then always add these two.
I headcanon their names as "Buster" (the red-haired bearded one) and "Silas" (the one with the eyepatch)
what do u call shipping but its platonic?? cus thats what im doing with these 2 hehe
(also i wanna develop them more in erikafolk, maybe they'd be friendly rivals with erika idk but their designs are too cool to pass up for my safety-patrol-centered fanfic!!) >:D

Hey, where the fuck is Hilda's ability to understand trolls? I know Johanna can't understand them, but Hilda can, it's both book and show canon, so where is it?

I like to think there’s some sort of magical council in Trolberg, where representatives from all the main forms of magical creatures and practitioners come together to discuss how things are going and work out any disagreements going on between them.
And since I’m pretty sure there’s no other fae in Trolberg, I think that leaves Johanna as the fairy representative and that is SO funny

The Runaway Hilda AU
Tumblr media
(amazing cover art done for me by @blagzdeath)
The Runaway Hilda AU is an alternate universe, diverging from the end of Hilda Season 2 - in this timeline, Hilda isn't caught by her mum at the start of The Stone Forest, and instead escapes to Frida's, only to come home to Johanna even more upset, causing their biggest argument yet.
As a result, Hilda decides her mum would be better off without her, and runs away from home to live in the wilderness. Johanna, desperate to find her missing daughter, joins the Safety Patrol, and ultimately becomes deputy leader. Hilda finally comes home after a year away, only to find out that a lot has changed in her absence, and things can't go back to how they were before she left. For a more detailed summary, see here.
The fics of the Runaway AU are written to stand alone, and can be read on their own or in any order. But, here is the timeline as it stands, covering every fic written by me and my amazing little sibling @ultimate-kaisa-simp for this series:
To The Hills (the night Hilda ran away - replaces The Stone Forest)
The 5 + 1 Runaway Hilda AU, Chapter 1  (1 week after Hilda ran away)
The 5 + 1 Runaway Hilda AU, Chapter 2 (3 months after Hilda ran away)
The 5 + 1 Runaway Hilda AU, Chapter 3 (Sonstansil Eve - 6 months after Hilda ran away)
Room For One More, Chapter 1 (Sonstansil Eve - immediately after #4)
Full Disclosure (3 days after Sonstansil Eve)
Room For One More, Chapter 2 (1 week after Sonstansil Eve)
Room For One More, Chapters 3 & 4 (~3 weeks after Sonstansil Eve)
The 5 + 1 Runaway Hilda AU, Chapter 4 (8 months after Hilda ran away)
Two Girls In A Bus Stop Shelter (8 months after Hilda ran away)
Everything’s Changed & Nothing’s The Same (concurrent - Hilda’s 11th Birthday - 9 months after Hilda ran away)
The 5 + 1 Runaway Hilda AU, Chapter 5 (11 months after Hilda ran away)
The House On The Sand (12 months after Hilda ran away)
One Runaway To Another (~4 days after #13)
The 5 + 1 Runaway Hilda AU, Chapters 6 & 7 (1 day after #14)
The Ones Left Behind (1 day after #15)
With You, Always (~1 week after #16)
