But troll-human conflict has always been at the heart of the show, so it’s good to see Mountain King finally addressing the mysteries around it. It’s hard not to miss the familiar galavanting-around-Trolberg antics that a full season of the show would offer. The film is an excellent feature-length Hilda episode, but the 84-minute runtime also allows it to raise the stakes of the low-key series appropriately, tackling some of the enduring mysteries at the core of Trolberg. Baba wakes up in Hilda’s bed, a great shock to Hilda’s mother, who spends the rest of the episode desperately searching for her daughter.
Hilda wakes up in the trolls’ cave dwelling, with a body made of stone. Baba’s mother used troll magic to swap the two, wanting to provide her daughter with the comfortable life of a human. Fans have been waiting for a year now to see that cliffhanger resolved.Īt the start of Hilda and the Mountain King, the film that caps the series’ second season, Hilda has become a troll, while Baba, the changeling troll-baby left in her place, has become a human toddler. That’s exactly what happens at the end of the second season of Netflix’s essential animated show Hilda. It’s hard to imagine a scenario more terrifying than rescuing your child from certain danger, then waking up the next morning to find a stranger’s child sleeping in her bed.
