Okay but like the opening to a cartoon had no business slapping this hard. It is still the best opening to any cartoon I've ever heard. W.i.t.c.h. Will forever hold a precious place in my heart. Disney needs to revive it with this similar animation style and do a remaster of this absolute tune as the theme. Everyone has shown love to winx club but W.i.t.c.h. honestly is just so much better and the song alone proves it
I would love to do a live action version in the vein of Once Upon A Time & come up with a way to slowly work up to the costumes, but given that it's Disney owned, it would cost a fortune to just get to the point where a pilot could be made & the executives would be constantly arguing as to whether it was meant for kids & should be more like their sitcoms, or meant for adults & there should be more romance/ adults-playing-teens type of stuff instead of just letting it be what it wants to be- a dark monster of the week type show with actual teens in the roles.
this series needs a reboot or continuation with updated graphics and design but keep the dark atmosphere and gritty vibe that was one of the main appeals of the show well that, Will., and Irma's outfit top always being messed up XD lolz
Hopefully if the sales for the graphic novels do well, maybe Disney night consider. The fandom is alive and strong surprisingly. I think it's time we all try to raise our voices louder.
I think a sequel by the fans themselves would be much better, let's consider dragon ball z the fall of men, what a great movie for god!! Therefore I sincerely believe that the fans of W.I.T.C.H. would make an incredible sequel, greetings from la serena, Chile 🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱
@@aaamazing9888 True, WINX really got ruined. The new season was crap tbh. Also the Netflix show sucked... maybe no reboots. Its always an bad idea like when Rob Zombie rebooted the Halloweens.
@@TomieNightFevertrue. I mean have you seen season 8? The art looks like a bad anime and for crying out loud why the hell would they make the Trix sympathetic?! They are power hungry HBICs!!!
This is such an awesome intro song, really love the intense guitar playing and it fits the more darker tone of the comic books (the cartoon show is more lighthearted).
So many people saying that the UK version of the opening is superior but I like this version better. It might just be the nostalgia talking, but I really do love this song and the lyrics feel more fitting for the series' tone (well, at least in accordance with the comics).
I actually seeing more people liking this opening more. I like both, but not both in English. I like this as it is (plus the Espanol), but for the US-version I like the Finnish and the Hungarian one, not the English.
It was in part inspired by Sailor Moon just as any magical girl show does be it anime or western. Sailor Moon basically became the blueprint for the modern magical girl genre. The W.I.T.C.H. animated series came out in mid December of 2004 and ATLA came out in February 21, 2005. W.I.T.C.H. animated series was adapted from the comic books which originally came out in April of 2001. ATLA didn't exclusively use the elements as a part of their story either. Don't get me wrong, ATLA is a great show but not everything was necessarily inspired by it because something shares some similarities with it.
I saw this comment just now. I know there were other magical girl shows that came before Sailor Moon. I've seen some of them myself. Sailor Moon was the first mainstream magical girl anime, with a wide international audience and which got many people into anime, and become the icon that it is today and a source of inspiration for many anime and even cartoons that came after.
Am I the only one who’s never noticed until just now that Irma’s outfit colors are wrong throughout most of this? The top is supposed to be teal and her skirt is purple!
It's a completely different show with completely different audiences and aims. What's a shame is that this show was affected by the W.I.T.C.H.'s image.
Because I'm getting a few comments saying the same thing, and this will disappoint many, but the chances of Disney adding W.I.T.C.H. onto Disney+ is VEEEEEEEERRRRRY slim. Disney cares more about any of their properties that will make them a lot of money and W.I.T.C.H. isn't one of them. It has a decent number for its fanbase but let's face it, it's not on the same level as properties such as Phineas and Ferb, Gravity Falls, and other really popular cartoon shows. If they ever do add it, I'll be shocked. You can hope and wish but you're only gonna be disappointed. Keep your expectations low. That's the best advice I can offer.
This is really off topic and I have been thinking about what to say since this reply was made; and other comments from before; but given the fact that you seem to be lurking around a lot on this video, if not my entire channel an awful lot for the past few months is raising many red flags. It's creepy, my friends think so too. It's giving me bad PTSD and I think you should find another hobby other than commenting on this same video every month or replying to any comments made by me or anyone. I told you in a really nice way to stop by suggesting that you should make your own W.I.T.C.H. videos without outright saying please stop lurking but since you didn't take the hint or the advice for that matter, I'm telling you directly what your activity is causing for me. Maybe your intentions are good and all but no one really ever comments on the same video for several months at least once a month. I will not engage with you any further and if you continue with your actions I will have to block you.
Well, the TV show is not as good as the comics: in the comics there are a lot of adventures, evolution in the personalities and also physical aspect of the witch, there are suggestions (some of them very very good, for example when Taranee left her boyfriend when the relationship was becoming toxic) about how to deal with your adolescence life and the real world, there are difficult situations explained in order to show other realities (for example the fact that Will´s mother is divorced, and that Will´s father only wants money and does not care about his daugther). The witch confronts these situations, mature, finds their ways in life, each of them have their own conflicts (Cornelia and her personality, Irma and her physical aspect, Taranee and the fact that she is adopted, Will and the divorce, Hay Lin and the death of her grandmother, Orube and her feelings), each of them surpass their insecurities, learn from their mistakes, recognise their mistakes, value the true friendship, forgive themselves and others... I mean, there a lot of good messages in the comics, and the TV show did not make it justice at all. If somebody wants to revive witch, read the comics again, they are excellents.
@@AnaGarcia-ld5lf Yes I know all of this personally i like the comics more myself. Even if Disney were to try and revive it, they won't touch up on all these just like they did in the cartoon.
Loved watching this during the summer. Great story and a kickass theme song to go with it. But even now I still wonder how powerful the girls be when they get older and their prime.
Very powerful since they've taken a test to see if they keep their powers after Kandrakar took back the heart of Kandrakar in the comics. It makes sense their powers would only grow stronger as they get older (and maybe as they train). As powerful the Heart of Kandrakar is, it only gave them limited powers. Without it and having a more natural abilities, there's room for all sorts of things to happen.
Man wish Kingdom Hearts and WITCH could make a crossover it would be so Epic Sora Donald and Goofy Fighting alongside The Guardians Against Phobos or even Nerissa. 🤩
Ah yes, the nostalgia! It was a great show! I always loved this theme song and the fight scenes were animated very well! Admittedly though, I preferred the original comics for this series, the show changed or cut out nice plot points from them. And then Disney only published the first 2 story arcs in graphic novels (the same ones for the show's 2 seasons), before deciding not to renew their distribution contract with the IP holders of W.I.T.C.H. in Europe. But the comic continued for like 14 more story arcs over about 15 yrs, the scans are still floating around online.
@@AnimationFreak91 What was your fav arc? I liked The Book of Elements and the comic version of Nerissa's Revenge. I was a little sad that the last few "arcs" of the comic were just groupings of episodic self-contained plots. But I guess all good things have to come to an end... It has been years tho, and I've been meaning to seek them out again so thanks for the link!
Hey I am also from Donetsk😅 I gathered comics magazine since 2005 to 2012 I guess...didn't skip any one and bought special releases too. I dreamed to meet fans of witch, and have all magazines. Then it was crashing reality 😢
Fun Fact: A French storyboard artist on this show's animation team (and on the Totally Spies & Code Lyoko teams), Thomas Astruc, went on to create his own CGI cartoon series starting in 2016. It's now one of the most popular currently airing cartoon series for kids that's NOT made/contracted by Disney or Dreamworks. It's Miraculous Ladybug. I'm in my 20s now but I came across a thriving young-adult fanart fandom for ML and then got drawn in. Marinette & Adrien's secret identity woes, crush angst, and quirky high-jinks as Parisian superheros echoes that of the W.I.T.C.H girls and I guess my nostalgia for it all drew me in, lol. Astruc has definitely used his experience working on these old favs to build upon and make the kids tv series that truly has a global fandom....
I watch Miraculous Ladybug too but unfortunately for MLB, it's stuck in that limbo of having poorly written characters and a lead character who is basically a mary-sue at this point. The concept is great but not so much the execution.
How can you even compare WITCH and Winx and say one is better. They have their own strength and weaknesses, their tones are different. Let's just keep it civil and respect both of these amazing shows and comics.
Just as you have your opinion, me and others have theirs. I personally got into W.I.T.C.H. first when I was a kid and into Winx Club as an adult. W.I.T.C.H. holds a special place in my heart more than Winx Club does.
@@IamJerf I doubt it'll go to Netflix because Disney I making it's own streaming service platform like Netflix but but yeah that would be great either way.
W.I.T.C.H. isn't the first fandom, or anything for that matter that at formed an acronym based on the first letters of the main characters' names or names of places or organizations etc..
I still hate how the anime is called Rwby but it doesn't spell Ruby at all which kinda bugs me, and then the main character is named Ruby which totally throws the whole thing off in a way.
@@SooyeonIdle Its not supposed to spell ruby correctly,Its the names or colors of the main characters (ruby,weiss,blake,yang) (red,white,black,yellow) unless you know that and im big dumb-
You ever notice that RWBY has the 4 colors of humourism? Sanguine (red), phlegmatic (white), malencholy (black), and choleric (yellow)....and the characters have those respective personality traits. I noticed this on my own and i only watched the first 3 episodes.
Such a good show. If they had a reboot following the original comic series I would be watching every episode. Maybe into beyond because the comic ended with them introducing new powers using their five senses and a fusion form called Sixtar.
If you guys want this on Disney plus, you can go to the help section on the app/website, give feedback, and request that this show be added. I’m not saying its guaranteed but can’t hurt to try :)
I never watched this cartoon as a kid, when it was on, I would change the channel but now as an adult I want to see it. I’ll probably buy some comics of it on eBay :D

Hay Lin’s my favorite! I’m an air sign like her, we’re both artistic, imaginative,creative have grandmothers that are both air signs,we are geminis and our birthdays are in June! We have so much in common🥰😆🌬🌬💨🌬
News has been going around the internet these past few days about a possible W.I.T.C.H. comic reboot following a more shoujo manga style. We'll have to wait and see what comes of it. No news about what Disney would actually do, since it owns the rights.
@@AnimationFreak91 I am glad that u are still fun of them, I remember watching this show on Jetix :D damn thats a long tíme ago... Good old days, but at least I didnt forget
@@qwinn9963 Somebody has to keep the spirit of W.I.T.C.H. alive. You'll find some blogs on Tumblr and groups and pages on Facebook dedIcated to W.I.T.C.H..
I know it's probably a thing with tossing between animation studios, but Will floating down post-transformation with her team bugs me because her colors are WAY more flat than they are anywhere else, they lose all color depth with that team shot and then back to normal. Also, this theme *just absolutely rules.*
If W.I.T.C.H. were Power Rangers, their Ranger team name can either be: • Power Rangers Kandrakar • Power Rangers Guardian Knight • Power Rangers Magic Pixie
I'd go for the second one. Kandrakar would be their base of operations when it comes to ranger business, just like the command center was in MM-Zeo, Astro Space Ship in In Space, Terraventure in Lost Galaxy etc. Earth and other worlds would just be places they hung out in or had to visit for missions.

I watch Miraculous Ladybug too but unfortunately for MLB, it's stuck in that limbo of having poorly written characters and a lead character who is basically a mary-sue at this point. The concept is great but not so much the execution.
@@AnimationFreak91 I actually disagree but I respect that everyone has different ideas if what successful storytelling looks like ✌️
How can you even compare WITCH and Winx and say one is better. They have their own strength and weaknesses, their tones are different. Let's just keep it civil and respect both of these amazing shows and comics.
Just as you have your opinion, me and others have theirs. I personally got into W.I.T.C.H. first when I was a kid and into Winx Club as an adult. W.I.T.C.H. holds a special place in my heart more than Winx Club does.
WOW you got into Winx Club as an adult....COOL 🧚🏾♀️✨
ive never heard of this show but this theme song is so catchy
This is making me wanna go back and watch it from season 1
This is my childhood
Never watched the series, but know the opening and it is 🔥!!
This is more catchy then the UK one because it's more punk rock to beyond the MAX
Damn is the US Version of the Intro Badass
haven't heard this since i was a kid, why did I remember the lyrics XD
It's been like what 10 years now!??!
Disney pls bring back this show it's so much better than Winx Club in terms of character and drama
Maybe with the r-releaae of the comics by Yen Press, there will be more demands. I hope they reboot it though.
@@AnimationFreak91 if they do, I hope itll go on Netflix or somewhat on Disney XD since that's where all the cartoons and anime go to
@@IamJerf I doubt it'll go to Netflix because Disney I making it's own streaming service platform like Netflix but but yeah that would be great either way.
@@AnimationFreak91 I was hoping it would've targeted more of the teen-adult audience. Or at least in a small dark tone
@@IamJerf same I've been saying this for years. The comics have that tone and Disney toned it down.
My childhood unfolds
I completely forgot about this show until someone online mentioned it. It’s crazy seeing this again
I think this is where rwby got there name for the title since w.i.t.c.h is the main characters initials kind of like in rwby
W.I.T.C.H. isn't the first fandom, or anything for that matter that at formed an acronym based on the first letters of the main characters' names or names of places or organizations etc..
I still hate how the anime is called Rwby but it doesn't spell Ruby at all which kinda bugs me, and then the main character is named Ruby which totally throws the whole thing off in a way.
@@SooyeonIdle Its not supposed to spell ruby correctly,Its the names or colors of the main characters (ruby,weiss,blake,yang) (red,white,black,yellow)
unless you know that and im big dumb-
You ever notice that RWBY has the 4 colors of humourism? Sanguine (red), phlegmatic (white), malencholy (black), and choleric (yellow)....and the characters have those respective personality traits. I noticed this on my own and i only watched the first 3 episodes.
I saw the show for the first time ever a couple of years ago and I must say.....
*it was too good to end where it ended, much less at all.*
Happy 20th Anniversary W.I.T.C.H. on Jetix and Toon Disney
Oh man the memories are flooding back
The UK opening is great but I'm sorry this one kicks ass 😭
I agree.
This version is definitely better
This will be my anthem forever and always W.I.T.C.H. #WeAreWITCH.
It's my anthem too.
Winx club
W.i.t.c.h.
Totally spies
I'm a guy and I loved the hell out of these series and this one had the most badass intro
As a little kid, I remember wanting to watch this cause I thought it was so dark. Little me didn't really see that back then.
Such a good show. If they had a reboot following the original comic series I would be watching every episode. Maybe into beyond because the comic ended with them introducing new powers using their five senses and a fusion form called Sixtar.
Winx Club, Pixie Pop, W.I.T.C.H
the 3 main shows I use to watch as a kid
If you guys want this on Disney plus, you can go to the help section on the app/website, give feedback, and request that this show be added. I’m not saying its guaranteed but can’t hurt to try :)
I never watched this cartoon as a kid, when it was on, I would change the channel but now as an adult I want to see it. I’ll probably buy some comics of it on eBay :D
You can watch it here on my channel:
Season 1 ruclips.net/p/PL2xJzoaPw-rZ1woauQBAWmSQwmuJ5e_RO
Season 2 ruclips.net/p/PL2xJzoaPw-rZWWTYnvZiCflFbaOhlLtzS
And you can read the comics here: readcomiconline.li/Comic/W-i-t-c-h
@@AnimationFreak91 no way! That’s so cool. I’ll definitely watch them
One of the better opening songs
W.I.T.C.H. The Series should be on The Disney Plus's Streaming Service to watch all the different Season's of it on the Disney Plus Streaming Service's!
God, I miss the 90’s and the 2000’s so much.
Hay Lin’s my favorite! I’m an air sign like her, we’re both artistic, imaginative,creative have grandmothers that are both air signs,we are geminis and our birthdays are in June! We have so much in common🥰😆🌬🌬💨🌬
Loved this show, so much!🖤🫶🏻🔮🎆🪄🌠
I love this show when it was on Jetx
Nice work.
cool intro
Love is theme song.🧚🏽♀️🧚🏽♀️
News has been going around the internet these past few days about a possible W.I.T.C.H. comic reboot following a more shoujo manga style. We'll have to wait and see what comes of it. No news about what Disney would actually do, since it owns the rights.
UGH!! I wished this series got picked up again!!!
I have always had a huge crush on Irma!
I never knew that this is Made from comic... Tíme to read :D
Good luck.
@@AnimationFreak91 yeah :D 140 chapters I hope it has a story ending ;)
@@qwinn9963 Yeah. It ended in 2012.
@@AnimationFreak91 I am glad that u are still fun of them, I remember watching this show on Jetix :D damn thats a long tíme ago... Good old days, but at least I didnt forget
@@qwinn9963 Somebody has to keep the spirit of W.I.T.C.H. alive. You'll find some blogs on Tumblr and groups and pages on Facebook dedIcated to W.I.T.C.H..
Happy 19th Anniversary to this show
Memories.
This was a good wholesome show it was like a mixture of Winx club and sailor moon
Technically, Winx Club came after W.I.T.C.H. but yes. Sailor Moon paid a huge role in influencing the original creator of the W.I.T.C.H. comics.
@@AnimationFreak91 I just looked it up Winx club was out in January 28 2004 W.I.T.C.H. came out on December 18 2004
Amazing opening😮the Europeans were also catching, but this is Awesome!
I remember having a McDonald’s toy figurine of one of the girls lol
I'm sorry, this is the better of the intros for this show
None taken. I do think so, too. And your opinion counts.
Certified hood classic
No conocía este opening 😳😲me gustó 🤩🤗😎!!!
I know it's probably a thing with tossing between animation studios, but Will floating down post-transformation with her team bugs me because her colors are WAY more flat than they are anywhere else, they lose all color depth with that team shot and then back to normal.
Also, this theme *just absolutely rules.*
If W.I.T.C.H. were Power Rangers, their Ranger team name can either be:
• Power Rangers Kandrakar
• Power Rangers Guardian Knight
• Power Rangers Magic Pixie
I'd go for the second one. Kandrakar would be their base of operations when it comes to ranger business, just like the command center was in MM-Zeo, Astro Space Ship in In Space, Terraventure in Lost Galaxy etc. Earth and other worlds would just be places they hung out in or had to visit for missions.
