Hilda: Difference between revisions

'''Hilda''' is the titular protagonist from Luke Pearson's graphic novel series of the same name and its animated adaptation. Hilda is a headstrong and adventurous child who likes exploring and encountering many strange creatures. She was born at a house in the middle of the wilderness, where she lives with her loving [[Johanna|mother]], pet deerfox [[Twig]], and a tiny elf named [[Alfur Aldric]]. After the first few episodes, her family migrates into the nearby city of Trolberg after their original home was accidentally stepped on by a giant.

The show is well-received by critics and audiences alike, including the /co/ board where the show became mainly known for its "comfy" atmosphere. But as expected of the internet, the show has received dark and explicit fan arts; a notable example is a Korean fan comic depicting Hilda kidnapped and about to be raped before being rescued by ''Rainbow Six Siege'' operators.

Hilda made her first [[Ms. /co/]] appearance in the [[Ms. /co/ 2019|2019 edition]] where she lost to [[Jessica Rabbit]] in round 2. She managed to secure the 8th seed in the [[Ms. /co/ 2020|following year]] but was met with a first-round loss to [[Ms. Bellum]], earning her the dubious honours of becoming the first Top 8-seeded girl to lose in that stage, and one of the biggest upsets seed-wise in the tournament's history.

Hilda would finally make it big in [[Ms. /co/ 2021]]. Qualifying at seed #12, the young adventurer was one of the few higher seeds to have survived until the later rounds, and benefited from being featured in many fan arts from that year. She defeated [[Unikitty]], [[Sandy]], and [[Millie]] in the first 3 rounds before winning her rematch against #5 seed [[Jessica Rabbit|Jessica]] to reach the [[Elite Eight]]. Then, she overcame thematic favourite [[Eris]] by just 12 votes in the quarter-finals to set up a mother vs. daughter match against [[Johanna]] in the semis (who defeated [[Lord Dominator]] beforehand). However, Hilda's protagonist status did not help her chances, as Johanna decisively beat her to reach the final; anons attributed her mother's win to "anti-loli" voters, MILF voters, and strategic votes from other parties. Hilda then faced another rematch against [[Miss Bellum]] and defeated her by 28 votes to secure third place. Overall, 2021 was a big win for ''Hilda'' fans despite not winning the championship.
