Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaas
When r u rewriting season 6 please don't let me wait a decade
are you gonna rewrite season 6? that season needs THE MOST help.
Yess
“no more MusaRiven drama”
YES WE STAN HEALTHY AND FUNCTIONING RELATIONSHIPS
Thank you! I used to think, along with my now gf, that it was kinda realistic because not all relationships are perfect. But after season 8 I started to rethink that.
I didn't mind that their relationship wasn't as stereotypically healthy as say, Flora and Helia's, but yeah...I agree. They just kept rehashing the "Musa and Riven are a toxic relationship" lightning rod every season just because. They never even went into why Riven was the way he was in the series. Years ago on the official website, I remember reading that Riven held resentment towards females because his mom abandoned him as a child. All we see is that he "has a competitive thing with Sky" like...really? Thus everyone continually believing Riven is the shallowest personality of all the specialists...Augh. Give my boy a break.
@@mousemilk4743 Riven deserved a backstory. All the specialists did. They were there for 7+ seasons.
Yeah, As a child I didn't even notice it, I feel like the specialists are there just to be the Winx' boyfriends lol
Jessica Winx Oh ok! So glad we’re all on the same page. Even I thought everyone’s relationships were FAR too healthy or toxic to be real. The only relationship that made sense was Nabu and Aisha’s. And then they killed Nabu. Even Stella and Brandon’s worked well! 😂👍👍
“No reverting back to 16 year olds,” you have NO idea how loudly I screamed “YES!!!” in excitement when I watched this. 😂
Why do i not remember that part
I was so confused when i watched season 5 and the wenz back to alfea, because they owned a shop in gardenia?!
I thought the school was college/University and a year roughly is one season, so I thought in season 5 the winx should be 22 or 23.
What always confused me is that they became teachers at the beginning of season 4 and then revert back to students for the rest of the seasons.. it makes absolutely no sence😂
I don't know why in season 1 17 years old season 2 18 season 3 19 season 4 20 but season 5 sends them to 16 and when I saw season 5 I screamed so hard season 6 17years old season 7 18 season 8 19 and I was mad at season 8 I actually threw my phone on the floor by my anger!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah They didn't even give nabu a memorial service! I know Rainbow did Aisha Dirty but Damn they did Nabu DIRTY!!!!
Yeeeeeeees! I’m still mad!
IKRR!
Fr. “I am disgusted”
That was the greatest tragedy of all 😭
Bloom could have saved him like how she saved Sky in season 2 😒
Unicorn of War: *mentions that the Winx Club will be teaching assistants that guide Roxy in their Season 5 rewrites*
Me: I love it already.
Fr honestly.
Yeah 🥰
Shut up and take my hugs!

They could've done that instead of making them 17 again
What most franchises get wrong as time goes on is that they try to reboot or make it more childlike. Franchises like Winx Club and Monster High should've stayed/gone back to the shows roots. Or expanded their fantasy worlds more instead of just visiting different locations for a "mission."
Mosnter high i can understand because well karens, but winx club is entirely nick's fault and nobody can convince me otherwise
@@jentlesites I agree, they totally dumbed the show down and I couldn't even get through watching season 7. Butterflix wtf?
nick making the winx 16 again also messed up the entire timeline like they should be young adults by now i really don't get it
@@dreamsapphire5556 You got through 5 and 6?
@@buster3041 barely 😂 I don’t really remember anything that was a fever dream
This outline of Season 5 pitch is better than the entire final product of Season 5 canon. You did a great job of allowing the girls to continue to grow up.
Yea
At this point winx club is a parody of itself
Pretty much unfortunately... 😞
They aready prove that in season 7 and 8
AliceAngel764
“Pathetic”
Season 8 was.....decent. As retconned as Icy's backstory was it was still better than the repetitive stories that came before. Given that her stories tended to be a.) come back b.) do bitchy things c.) get locked away they wanted to do something else
@@ryanmoore6259 now I wonder what Thomas's rewrite of Season 8 will be...
The part were they lose there powers and actually suffer a loss is an interesting twist. Using the second movie's plot to give their powers back was an amazing idea.
I was actually so worried and had to pause the video to collect myself
I imagine for Bloom, she could go back to living an ordinary life in Gardenia. The magic shop is still there and she could work it. But for the others who had been surrounded by magic all their life, it'd be a shell shocker to suddenly have no more powers
This is great. I propose an idea though. What if instead of Bloom’s unicorn, Kiko was her fairy animal the entire time and was sent by Daphne with Bloom to Earth to support her into eventually becoming a fairy. Kiko obviously isn’t a normal animal. And we’ve seen normal animals in Winx Club, like Roxy’s dog. Kiko just seems to be too aware of his surroundings and can understand everyone. Kiko is just way too intelligent to be on par with a normal rabbit
Ooh sort of like Perry in Phineas and Ferb
YES OMGG GENIUS
I like this fanfiction so much better than season 5. Tho I didn't like season 5 much in the first place.
But I liked it
@Joshg16 they dropped so many things in season 5 like Love & Pet and the responsibilities they had on Earth and they basically brushed over that Nabu died. I never liked that Musa and Riven had the on again, off again thing in their relationship. It was just bad.
SAMEEEE
They first of all rushed S1-2 to get to the point of s5 which didn’t sit with me ...
sirenix was sooo over used in the videogames and like any dolls stuff they sold. thats probably the main reason i didnt like it
I love the idea of moon powers being centred around illusions, and that as a consequence of not seeing her mother as often and out of duty to her father, the king, Stella had buried that power inside of her. I would have loved to have seen Stella learn to control that side of her power, which would lead to an epic face off with Darcy who has similar abilities.
Stella and Flora were massively suppressed by the show in regards to their powers - especially in the later seasons.
I can totally imagine Stella going full Wanda Maximoff in Endgame, if she was to see one of the Winx or Brandon get seriously hurt in a fight.
Thank you for bringing up Stella. Even if her moon powers weren't brought out there was such more they could have done with her sun powers but they didn't. She had the ability to be one of the strongest fairies with attack spells. Sadly they just gave her plain old light beans and balls. But her reflecting mirror spell in season 5 was amazing same with her light spiral.
Honestly, I think they should just start the whole series over at this point🤷♀️
Only from the Nickelodeon era of season 5 onwards
Yesss! And @unicornofwar can be a consultant
Just erase everything Nick did basically while keeping S1-4.
Don’t know you don’t care why would you call someone else stupid when you’re the one that’s wrong ? every thing after season 4 is shit, they can keep restarting it but they’ve dumbed this show so down it’s embarrassing. they’re only losing kid viewers that are 9-13.
Are you talking about World of Winx.
Honestly, if this was the season 5 we got, I would've been happy to see this as the finale of the show. This fan fic season is way better than the actual season in almost every way- we have high stakes, no pointless drama, actually competent and threatening villans and it even makes the events of the second movie make sense! I don't think we could've asked for a better setup for a finale.
I love the fact Roxy is a main character again. We stan
She is definitely honored and given justice in this fanfic, while still keeping true to her nature in her arc that she is still very new, and still trying to learn more beyond her life on earth, so she's gonna be left behind in these bigger missions one way or another, while still determined enough to stick herself close to this whole thing.
What I like about this fanfic is it led up to a twist that Roxy has been displaying the same qualities all along that made her worthy to earn Sirenix. 😁🎶
Honestly, I dont mind her having to be debuffed to a supporting character. Tecna has been doing that since season 1😍😍😍
Wendy Whalims
Damn.
Did I lie?
Fun fact rainbow planned on making her a part of the group in season five but nick ended up crushing that
Honestly the only thing I liked about seasons 5 & 6 was that Daphne played a bigger role since she was my favourite from the beginning. But everything else... yeah no Season 4 was the last good one.
I feel like Sirenix is a sacred magic transformation, and it's kinda ruined now that everyone in Winx has it. It'd be special if only Daohne had it, tho I understand why Winx needed it.
@KELLY LOK daphne is also one of the supreme nymphs of Magix
@Rach OP? These characters are still weak as hell lol. New forms that should be stronger than the last yet are only cosmetically different.
And one basic as hell ability that their first form should've had.
Garbage transformation system because girls don't care about power. They only care about fashion.
I also liked daphne from the begining
No no season 1 2 3 4 5 are best seasons
This rewrite, is, dare I say? Kind of fire.
It’s very fire.
Kind of🤔
Guess you can say it's. Dragon fire.
@@miibun5 Goddammit Barb!
KpeGuy Ebbers XD
The fact that Nabu didn't get his memorial is *DISGOSTANG*
Not even a reaction from his god damn parents, like dude they showed his parents in season 3 and didn't give any time for them in post season 4 to react to his death
Things I liked:
Nabu's Memorial Service
-It’s almost what I imagine Nabu’s Memorial Service would be since I was kinda confused when Nick had no mention of that at all. I didn’t think very hard on it when I first watched the episode, that, and it wasn’t mentioned how long it was between the end of season 4 and the beginning of season 5.
Roxy's inclusion and importance
- I’m glad that you gave Roxy more importance and inclusion to season 5 since I admit, I was disappointed when Roxy was reduced to a minor role rather than the main cast. She did have a following, she got positive reception, she has a fan base, and yet, Rainbow didn’t utilize her. The saddest part is that it was never revealed by Rainbow, and to an extent, Iginio Straffi reduced her role after Season 5, which is why I’m glad you were able to bring out the possibilities of her role. Though I should tell you right now, while we’re still young, do not let bitterness over wasted potential take over your life, if you obsess over it, you’ll never be able to move forward. While there are things for me that I’m personally upset over, I’m not going to let them ruin my life, I have dreams and wishes I want to make come true and I have friends that I’ll always be there for, and friends I still want to watch over me. We’re all still people in the end.
- I especially liked the fact that you have Roxy her bonded pixie. Though Zing is good and all and I like her a lot, I would've preferred if Caramel was Roxy's bonded pixie so that Cherie and Caramel’s inclusion in Season 6 isn’t confusing when they are introduced as Musa and Tecna’s pixies respectively when their pixies were Tune and Digit, respectively. Nothing wrong with Zing being Roxy’s pixie really, it is your story, after all, you can do whatever you please.
- Gerganfen on DeviantArt did amazing artwork of Roxy's wardrobe for seasons 5 through 7, while Winx-Rainbow-Love did artwork of Roxy's transformations. If Roxy should get her own transformation sequences, I want them to be like those artist’s depictions. Don’t you agree?
Mentioning the fact that ever since magic has returned to Earth, people are beginning to show magical abilities, whether as wizards, fairies, or witches.
- It’s very similar to The Legend of Korra where at the end of season 2, Korra decides to leave the spirit portals open so that the spirits are allowed to roam free in the physical world which caused Non-benders to develop Air bending abilities, bringing a new era of Air Bender following their near extinction by the hands of Sozin 171 years ago. I actually had the same idea of concept as well, only that it would take place 25 years after the end of the Winx series, whenever that will be, where the focus is on a group of girls from Earth, all be it from completely different backgrounds, in terms of ethnics and backstories.
Overall, that was a great rewrite of Season 5. Thank you for doing this. To be honest, I don’t think the Season 5 rewrite I had in mind will be as good as yours.
Yeah the Nabu one pretty much confused the hell outta me. Especially the fact that Nabu has fucking parents!! We didn't see how his parents react to his death, like to memorial for him since he was arranged by his and Aisha's parents for a god damn marriage.
I feel like Zing being Roxy’s bonded pixie makes more sense cuz Zing is the pixie of insects, part of the animal kingdom(correct me if I’m wrong) and Roxy is the fairy of animals
@@IzzyQueen12 Cherry would make sense too. Weather has a lot of influence on animals too. And it would avoid PopPixie confusion with S6.
43:43 You killed me when you said finally someone destroys Bloom's bullshit and plot armor.
Blooms adoptive and biological parents bonding is just… 10/10 good stuff
The depth in this story is amazing! I love the mention of Politea in the first episode, as well as the numerous workarounds to keep the same storyline but in a different manner. The selkie background is also interesting since it gives them way more of a purpose than just being underwater satnavs. I always wondered how easily-accepted Roxy was gonna be in the school too, so I'm glad you decided to include that. The link to Shadowhaunt is also cool!
(I'm only 30 mins in but I'll probably have a following comment when I'm done XD)
Edit: I finished it and I enjoyed SO. MANY. THINGS. I like this visual style of telling the story and I hope you do make more of these :D
It's really neat that he included Selkies,because they are one of the lesser used mythological creatures and it fits the ocean theme.
I don't care about what anyone else says, this is why fanfiction is a good thing. Not only is it allowing 'ordinary people' to explore their creativity but it's so satisfying to read/watch/listen to good fanfiction of any kind. I'd love to watch this and you really should consider re-writing season 6 onwards as well, just because you're good at it.
In this house we stan redemtion for diaspro
I honestly NEVER understood why the show kept going back to that stupid rivalry between them. I always felt like Diasporo deserved far better than to become some evil vindictive villain because a guy she wasn’t even sure she liked picked someone else. Her reasons for being a villain over and over again are like a weak Disney channel movie plot and I would have much preferred Diasporo become an ally (or as I said in another comment, a member of the winx along with Mirta and Roxy).
@@mkwhite5054 camp rock u mean
i dont :)
YES!!!
In the comics they actually gave her a redemption arc but a few years later they undid it because the show decided to make her a villain again.
tbh this is a thousand times better continuation than the childish shitshow that rainbow gave us
it has the same deep season 1-4 vibes full with clever plotlines and filled with worldbuilding enriching the magical expierience ♥️
Honestly didn't even know this show went beyond season 3 until recently

Me neither, even s4 is flawed to me.
season 2 is my favorite.
Season 4 is actually pretty good and it’s gets dark sometimes. A lot say the rai version is good but I prefer the nick dub(maybe it’s because I grew up with it 🤷♀️) the rai ones sound to childish for me

Don't talk like that you're not crazy
It was super good I like so much
Good job with the rewrite season 5. When your done maybe can you rewrite season 6, that be really good. Pls do it
I like that they brought Daphne back
Also thank you for giving Roxy A new transformation
Also, interesting thing that no one at Nick thought... It's fun to see characters grow. It's great to see them become independent and no longer at school. It shows kids that growing up isn't necessarily something to be scared of, despite adults often telling kids that they wish they were the kids age again. Reverting characters back to 16 doesn't do anything for helping kids learn compromise and responsibility it takes to be an adult, eventually.
Someone please give Thomas his own show, this is amazing. I vote he writes any future Winx reboot
LOVE that you broke barriers by making Tressa the crown princess instead of keeping it an all male-centric royal family with Nereus, no hate to Nereus though he's a sweetheart but Tressa is such an underrated badass!
Season 5 is actually one of my favorite seasons! Its the last time I felt the Winx felt like the Winx, before I gave up and just accepted it became like every other magical girl show that has a new season every year or few years and belongs to the same franchise.
Thank you for sharing this! I really love it. It made me smile when I've been really depressive lately. You're amazing Thomas ~
They should have ended the Winx series in season 5 honestly and focused on world of Winx for season 3 and one more movie to finish up the story
I personally feel that season 1-3 had the best plot and I didnt really like season 4 but I liked season 5!
@@fa1509 Would be cool if it ended with season 5, and a movie or sequel series showed their children being fairies.
I grew up with Season 5, I used to get home as soon as possible on Mondays to watch it, so this is a nostalgia trip for me
@@summertan274 same here, exact same feelings
i think my favorite thing about this rewrite is that you weren't afraid to allow the winx to fail-- and fail *badly.* of course, goodness and justice are always gonna somehow win in the end, but by letting the winx fail miserably a multitude of times against odds that are extremely stacked against them makes this season way more engaging and interesting. you really raised the stakes and the tension of the story! this is one of my biggest gripes against the nick seasons (amongst many other things...), it feels as though the winx don't encounter any meaningful setbacks, and if they do, it's ultimately inconsequential. even though by the end of this video, things began to turn around for the winx, there was still so much they had to sacrifice and go through to get to that comeback.
honestly if Rainbow wanted to make the Winx go back to be 16-year-old students again there is an option of introducing the next generation of the Winx and go from there with the children of the original Winx club but honestly after listening to this if this were the official season i would totally watch it

As a part of Bloom's story with her biological parents, I'd add in them dead naming her. I find it hard to believe that 'Bloom' is her birth name. Like, at first, she'd be hesitant to correct them because it's the name they gave her, but at the same time, it's not her name anymore. She silently hopes they'll take the hint when literally everyone else, including Daphne, calls her 'Bloom', but they don't. The other Winx notice it and talk with her about it.
It's when she agrees that they should take some time to bond as a family that she firmly corrects them about her name. Oritel and Marion, being good parents, realize their mistake and switch to 'Bloom', with a couple slip ups for the first few months.
what a stupid story line LOL this comment looks like you just want to make bloom woke
That made absolutely no sense whatsoever
As fun as that may be for you...Bloomix? Idk if it'll be in the rewrite, but yeah so...
@@eeeyea9304dude, you're watching a video made by a non-binary person. Also, this isn't "woke". Cis people get their names changed for a whole bunch of reasons, and it's still disrespectful to not call them by their chosen name.
@@Queen_Sakurait's called Archonix in the rewrite. Don't quote me on the spelling.
The only thing I didn't really understand was the physical state of the ancestral witches. If they were simply spirits hanging around the trix or if they had bodies of their own. Aside from that it's a damn great rewrite and I sadly wish that this had been the season 5 we got instead of.... whatever that was.
Looking forward to the next part!
Edit: Also, seeing the end of the video, since the ancestral witches were killed, does that mean they were lying about their dark magic on Sky's mind killing him if they were gone or did the magic in his mind just dissapear?
I really like how your giving these characters more characteristics than Nickelodeon have them.Also I really appreciate how you tried to reform Diaspro, I feel like she could have acted a bit better in season 5 and 6
They likely kept the Bloom vs Diaspro thing because of the target audience. A teen drama that it reminds me of is Violetta from Disney, where there was always some drama just for the sake of drama imo. I watched a few episodes and they were quite a hassle to go through, because they were mostly boring but intense and dense with petty elementary-level incomprehensions.
Before watching season 5 since I catched it playing on tv I thought Harmonix is not a real transformation and I made it up of an oc but when I watched season 5 I was shocked when I learned Harmonix is a real transformation. Kid me thought it was a dream that they played the Harmonix song
Im gonna hold off watching this so i can make it a whole event. I need cake. I need fried chicken. Like im gonna go all out.
I'm watching it whilest doing school work
I absolutely love everything you did with this rewrite, I especially loved Roxy finally bonding with a Pixie (I always felt like Zing was meant for Roxy, Glim fitted Mirta due to the whole “baby” aspect symbolic of her becoming a fairy, Cherie fit daphne as they both have “natural order” abilities with daphne using the four elements and Cherie controlling weather and Caramel fit Diasporo because of her “strong” personality and the whole gemstone=unbreakable thing) and you didn’t just completely drop her existence like the series did. winx club had so much potential but it just continually got screwed by dubs and too many cooks in the kitchen messing with the story.
I also felt like Roxy, as the last fairy of earth, should of just got some extra special “Mary Sue”-ish capabilities that allowed her to gain her enchantix in season 4 when they save Tir Na Nog and then in the season five premiere she gains her Believix which puts her right with the other winx by time Harmonix rolls around (this also would have worked with Daphne bonding with the Selkirk ofagic and Roxy with the Selkie of Earth).
I also think they should of went ahead with their “Nine Nymphs of Magic” foreshadowing one season 1 and instead of Making the Winx the new company of light, made them the next Nine Nymphs (with the other three being Mirta, Diasporo, and Roxy) with Daphne brought back as a teacher and given a chance to have a normal life.
Ehh.I don't think it's fair to give Roxy a transformation that took the Winx Club girls 3 years of build up and a lot of trials to get on a silver platter in same season she's introduced. Enchantix(before we got 5-8) was supposed to be the penultimate transformation and the requirements and abilities it has shows this. Roxy should have to earn that transformation like the rest of the Winx did, last fairy or not. And I feel like last fairly on Earth is an exaggeration here considering that we see in S4 that pockets of fairies did survive the Black Circle. I don't think it would be that much a stretch if some fairies(aside form the ones we saw) managed to hide themselves and came out of hiding after they were defeated. And because magic is slowly returning to Earth,one the natural consequences of that would be people would slowly start gaining magic back,with maybe some people having it in the form of fairy magic.
Nah her saving the terrestrial fairies the way the she did isn't exactly her sacrificing herself to save them. I thought the same idea but realize it wouldn't work. I would say, if the episodes were longer, let her acquire her first fairy form and explore it in like 6-8 episodes later and then in the second half of 6-8 episodes she acquires enchantix by sacrificing herself to save her father/Artu from the wizards' attacks which shocked everyone for she acquired it unexpectedly. Its rushed but pretty steady paced.
What I absolutly love about this version is that musa and riven have a much happier relationship
Would it be sad to admit that I've been low key hoping he'd do this since he mentioned he likes Winx Club??? Haha

“When in doubt, torture your characters for fun”
Every writer ever: This speaks to my soul
another fanwork that puts more thought into it's story than it's official counterpart.
I personally headcanon Vanessa bringing out the baby picture albums during the VHS presentation. Overall, a very interesting take on what Season 5 could have been, well done!! Looking forward to more! :D
I absolutely LOVED what you did with Aisha. Focusing on the aftermath of Nabu's death, as well as having an actual memorial service, as well as seeing his parents and how they were coping was beautiful. THANK YOU for doing this
I also love that you included the witch Venomya from World of Winx. THANK YOU for acknowledging that series. I wish there had been some sort of resolution with this plot point (and was hoping we'd see this by the end, but I guess not?) I also liked how you showed the independence of the characters we rarely get to see such a thing from...namely Stella, who mostly- in canon - seems to skate by from her association with the other girls with minimal effort from herself. Here, she was able to actually figure something out ON HER OWN... instead of just riding the coattails of everyone else. And you had her actually ACKNOWLEDGING HER LUNAR POWERS FOR ONCE. I LOVED IT!
The ONLY things I wasn't really a fan of in this fanfiction is the idea of the Winx being tasked to "help Roxie". I know everyone is a fan of Roxie and that Roxie was pretty much neglected in canon, but I didn't like the idea of her getting "special help" in the form of the Winx. This could breed jealousy with the other students, ESPECIALLY considering how popular the Winx ended up becoming (in canon)...they are like mini celebs! I just don't think this role for them here was inherently necessary, considering Bloom managed to get along on her own in the first season without such assistance from older, more experienced students...and Roxie herself already has the bonus of having a MAGICAL MOTHER to talk to, where as Bloom had only her adoptive parents at that time.
I also disagree with the idea of Roxie becoming the "7th Winx". She is SO FAR behind the girls in terms of magical training and needs to at least learn the basics of magic before going off on adventures with them. Even in this fanfiction, Roxie was mostly absent. I really don't understand how she would have been deemed "worthy" of the Sirenix powers when she literally did NOTHING. Sure, she struggled with adjusting to life at Alfea and actually seemed to actively dislike magic here, (based on a few comments here and there) and I never really felt like this story really explained her coming to terms with this. She wasn't even WITH the girls on most of their journey and struggles, and even at the end, before the climax, you didn't even come up with a valid excuse as to why a mostly untrained fairy would be anywhere near that battle, except to say "because she refused to be left behind/PLOT POINT. Honestly it felt like she was just handed this power without truly earning it JUST for fan service because everyone for some reason really wants Roxie as the 7th Winx. There was a reason why Roxie, in canon, wasn't granted Butterflix despite being with them. By then the other Winx were guardian fairies of their respective realms. And while Roxie, I assume may eventually become the guardian fairy of Earth, she's not there YET, and hasn't even obtained her Enchantix...yet somehow she was "worthy enough" to for Sirenix despite not putting in any effort.
I also hate the idea of the other fairies mocking Roxie about being from Earth. Bloom was from Earth (before everyone discovered her true lineage) and SHE never got mocked. It just seems unnecessary. Also making Princess Crystal a "mean girl" seemed like overkill. Yes she was largely hated by the fandom (myself included) but it's clear that her issues were just that she was OBLIVIOUS to Helio's (and Flora's) feelings...NOT that she was "secretly scheming". You have her behaving more like Diaspro here than her real personality, which seems unnecessary. ...and confusing considering you actually redeemed Diaspro here. Everyone wants Roxie to be the "7th Winx member" but for me, having 7 main characters to focus on is a complicated and means less time to focus on each individual character. Roxie needs to branch out and make her own set of friends in her own age group, friends that she can learn together with...like how Bloom did and especially how Flora's little sis did.
...not to mention, if there absolutely HAS to be a "7th member", I would MUCH have preferred Mirta (who even in this fanfiction was sadly neglected), who was sweet and got on with EVERYONE. I admit I'm not the biggest Roxie fan, just based on Roxie's actions and tone during the time of Nabu's death. Aisha made a comment about the girls "replacing" her with Roxie. Roxie didn't deny this or even offer any sort of sympathy and sort of seemed to actually double down, acting self-righteous considering she was a fairy who had JUST discovered her heritage and powers. And whereas the other girls build off each other and help each other grow, Roxie has really only ever seemed to be interested in being friends with Bloom and pretty much ignores the others. Even here she didn't seem to make much of an effort to become friends with her dorm-mates, being mostly standoffish and cold.
It's also a little odd that the Winx, while dealing with all of this, are still expected to take on their teaching assistant duties. WHY on Earth would they still be expected to be mentors at a time when their full concentration should be on SAVING EVERYONE?
I also don't agree with Roy being shown as "aggressive". Roy wasn't like that....this was more Nex's thing.
In all, I think this was a definite improvement over what we got in canon, although I wish, if you were going to make Roxie a Winx member ( which didn't they say in season 3 that they were making an exception even accepting Aisha and hinted that they wouldn't do it again?? Even Daphne wasn't allowed to be a Winx despite being with them pretty much all the time!). I wish you would have fleshed her (Roxie) out more and maybe shown her joining them so this wasn't such a deux ex machina type thing.
I love the idea of Mirta being the seventh member!
I wish mirta was the 7th fairy.
Top commenter you spelled her name wrong! It's Roxy! Not Roxie!
I ABSOLUTELY agree about roxy. I actually don't like her
Gurl roxy literally fought with winx everything also in the final battle with the witches
I really hated how they made Icy choose some guy over her sisters for the most of the season...I mean trix literally agreed to never let any men come between them ever again at the end of season 3
" Seasons 1-4 don't exist "
The dislikes are nick, because they clearly don't like character development and an actual, fun plot
And Rainbow staff because they didn’t like the re-write. I LOVE IT SO MUCH.
i watched the nick dub but I still love this re write way more than the actual season 5
They use to but modern nick doesn't
Did any studio working on the show?
Stop with the complaining on Nickelodeon. Straffi confirmed, SEVERAL TIMES, that it was HIS decision to chase younger audiences, not Nick's. Nick released Avatar and Korra, so how can you say that they are against maturity?
Oh man I love the way Stella connected with her lunar powers, by allowing herself to feel grief over her parents' divorce - which makes complete sense because the moon is heavily associated with the domain of emotions, at least in like astrology and ruling over cancer and stuff (?)
Literally listened to this whole thing while shelving at work and it greatly helped passed the time. Can't wait for the next! Also FINALLLY someone doesn't keep pitting Bloom and diaspro against each other🙏🏾
I'm also filling up doc sheets
This is beyond better i wish this was the real season 5
Absolutely love this rewrite it provides more dire circumstances to the Winx and proves that their actions do indeed have severe consequences which the original was missing. You also made them more like actual people you would see in the world instead of all-powerful beings of light destined to save the universe
Wow........ Your "fanfiction" is beyond amazing they should totally reboot Sirenix with this👏👏👏
Lol the most recurring Ancient Witch image kinda looks like she's giving the thumbs up.
Bravo Thomas, you’ve done it again! Seriously every show you rewrite needs to hire you (RWBY especially since it’s still ongoing)
I’m of the opinion that of the 3 seasons Nick helped produce, season 5 is the most decent because it actually has a decent plot and there are actual stakes. However, the decision to make the Winx students again as well as completely abandon Roxy is probably what I hate the most about it (also the 3D animation because it is GARBAGE). Harmonix is beautiful, but while I’m sad to see it go, I understand that it serves no true purpose beyond the sirenix quest. I liked how you used both believix and enchantix throughout the story (though since I’m so used to new transformations every season it took a bit to sink in).
Most of all, the tone was fantastic. THIS is the darker, more mature season everyone expected after season 4. I was actually surprised by how often the Winx got their butts kicked and their initial failure of the sirenix quest (you don’t see many heroes fail these days). Also, it was nice to see each of the Winx overcome their personal struggles.
I could gush forever about how amazing this is, but I’ll leave it here. Absolutely can’t wait for part 2 and hopefully the season 6 rewrite (cause if you wanna talk wasted potential it is the champion)!
I just love this re-write!! 💜💜
I also especially love that someone finally remembered Stella's moon half. Everyone seems to forget she can also do moon magic as well. I also love how the moon magic is used in illusions.
in the first 3 seasons her title was the fairy of the sun and moon
Just so you know, most of us take this as the actual season, so I will be waiting for more, Iginio Straffi is no more
Fusing the Believix Therapeutic spells and Fairy Dust???? GENIUSSSSS
This really turns Winx Club into an older audience show, it seems to have a more darker tone than even the first few seasons. I like it but it changes the show quite a lot.
I feel like one of the most confusing things is their age. I know they've been 16 for like 8 seasons but I headcanon that they age up a year for every season.
It makes sense.
Season 1: Bloom was 16.
Season 2: Bloom was 17.
Season 3: Bloom was 18.
They made a movie based of enchantix and in that movie, Sky proposed to Bloom. They get engaged at 18. Sky became king at 18.
they were 16 in seasons 1(with stella being 17] and 5 to 8, since they were 17 in season 2(stella being 18), 18 in season 3(stella being 19) and 19 in season 4(stella being 20)
This is absolutely fire! I just love how you give every member of the Winx Club (including Roxy!!!) her own unique story lines, problems and insecurites to overcome. Merging the story of SotLK into the plot of season 5 is just brilliant! Also, huge props for including Venomia, Stella's lunar powers and mentioning that Flora is indeed able to kick some ass when she believes in herself.
But the best thing: it all just makes heckin sense now! An aspect that I missed for the most parts of the last seasons. Thank you so much for creating such a perfectly thought through piece while respecting the original ideas and giving the community a story that it deserves!
Sending lots of love out there to you and all my fellow Winxers!
I love winx but man is it currently a mess
At least season 8 is better than season 7 in my book.
And 8 months later we have the shit show they call the life action remake
i love the fact that musa and riven won’t be in a toxic relationship anymore and finally will be in a health one
This is way better than what we got!!
Omg thank you for referencing the comics with the “White Horse” restaraunt!
I just realised that as a child I never questioned how Aisha's relatives are merpeople and she's a fairy.
I just accepted that her dad's brother was a merman, like I didn't even assume they were adoptive brothers or sth, I was just completely sure they were blood related.
I was smart as you can see😂😂😂😂
I honestly didn't expect to like it as much as I did but I truly enjoyed it. I have to confess that I didn't watch any of the seasons beyond the fourth so I'm not sure how much my opinion matters in this case. I am certain though that you did a fantastic job. This kind of rewrite is the only way for me to actually enjoy the franchise in its current state.
I love this ❤️ it sounds far more mature than what we actually got.
Also, I love that clip of Flora saying carnivorous. It's just subtly sassy and dry at the same time.
After your Winx Club series and RWBY rewrites, I'm super excited!
There are so many changes that I absolutely love the most being giving more characters attention like Roxy. I also really liked that you brought back the pixies since it felt really weird that they didn't come back until season 6. Also thank goodness you kept their original pixies since changing their pixies in season 6 was just so wrong. I think it's really good so far and I can't to see what you did with the rest of the story. Keep up the good work!
can you do a video rating the villains of winx, in terms of intimidation, competence, etc? just an idea
Suggestion!!! Disapro should have earned her charmix when she say sky and let him go. I know charmix is a mess lore wise given 2 canonical versions. But still
Honestly, Diaspro should have her enchantix because I read somewhere that in the comics, she served some time in the Eraklyon military so that basically means she put her life on the line for her people which aligns with Enchantix guidelines.
I absolutely agree with that. Also makes more sense than Charmix just disappearing on Season 3 for no reason
Can’t WAIT for part 2. This was amazing
As soon as u said “foreshadowing” at the start u knew this would be phenomenal it’s so good thank u this is now my favourite “season” it should be an official season
I just discovered your channel and I already give it a 10/10
Especially this
I have always wondered,since the flower was given the gift of life instead of nabu,couldn't they crush the flower into dust,mix it with some enchanted water and make nabu drink it,wont the flower immediately transfer the power to him?
@Kate Goodrich That would be awesome! Tangled was also a really good movie.
They should have ended the winx club franchise at season 5
-bloom found her parents
-blooms home was restored
-Daphne became human
-Quality of the show gone downhill at this season
-I find season 6-8 pretty irrelevant
Somebody needs to show Nickelodeon this and tell them to redo season 5.
No screw Nick. Send directly to Iginio himself
@@sailormermaidix24 Iginio will not listen. And stop with the hatred towards Nickelodeon. Straffi said that lowering the target age demographic was HIS decision, not Nick's. Don't blame Nickelodeon for what Straffi's guilty for.
you just beat winx club at their own game.
this version of season 5 is undeniably better than the original and i love the reminiscing to season 3!
OH MY GOD ITS OUT I CANT WAIT TO WATCH I HOPE TO GOD ROXY BECOEMS IMPORTANT AND CHARACTER DEV. ARENT COMPLETELY TRASHED
youtube ads are probably one of the most random things ever. like no i will not enroll in the military. i’m watching a two hour winx rewrite video at two in the morning so you think i’m gonna fucking join??
I think the Winx and Roxy should have their own homes in Magix. By now they shouldn't be at Alfea.
I sticked to the whole 2-hour video, and I absolutely love this new outtake of the season! The plot is very heavy and interesting with plenty of stuff going on, while using the same plot elements from what already existed in canon and making something new out of it.
The whole time, I listened through your episodes and it all felt familiar, so I wasn't suddenly bombarded with foreign plot elements that may shock me and throwing me off that this might turn into a not-so-believable Winx Club fanfic. 🎶
I love the parts where you implemented that the Winx are actually teaching and assisting the current teachers of Alfea, and Roxy even has important side plots to explore, especially giving her solo adventures to develop her character further as a descendant from a terrestrial group of fairies. 😊
Plotpoints from the 2nd movie was a very interesting diversion that hopefully would build up Tritannus becoming an even better main villian for this season! And a bonus clap for giving Diaspro a proper conclusion to her villian arc through redemption. 😁
I can't wait for the next half, and especially as a big Roxy fan, to see her more in action with her new Sirenix powers! 💞
And also, horray to older transformations being backwards compatible for newer seasons! 😃
This just blew me away. It's one of the best things this fandom has ever done. I honestly want to thank you for putting all the thought and effort into this. As a fellow Winx fan, it means a lot to me. I'm not yet finished with the video, but it's really intriguing. So much more epic and mysterious than season 5. I wish you could make an audio drama with some artists and voice actors based on this. That could really bring the fanbase together.
Almost two hours of pure enjoyment
Thank you!
1:00:43 “My own family thought I was a monster...They were right of course but it still hurt”
Honestly idc if the animation looks old in season 1-3 but that was the best animation that winx deserves. Not that s4 was bad but it definitively had a change on colors and perspectives. S1-3 had abstract perspectives drawn in different angles;moments of silence making every scene important and most importantly dark colors. Frinking shit i used to be terrified by icy.
I think it would also be really cool if each of the winx preferred different forms- like, obviously we’re not gonna have one always use believix or sirenix but in an instance where they need a form other than sirenix, only one or two of the winx use that form because they’re better at controlling those powers than the other winx are
this is a really cool idea, I would've love to see that.
I have seen all of your Winx Club vids and you are just so much fun to listen to. I think I have the same enthusiasm for Tecna as you do for Musa (Obvi). So when you hinted that you were going to re-write season 5 and I saw this vid, I never clicked faster in my life. (except for when I bought a handmade necklace of Tecna's Enchantix wings online, HOT DAMN!)
Anyway, this is honestly an amazing re-write and is NOT just a glorified fanfic. I think someone else said that the creators or whoever has rights to Winx Club needs to hire you, and I agree! I love how, even though I did not care for Diaspro, she does get a redemption here. I love how the stakes are amped up to an 11 with Sky's amnesia, and that the girls end up failing the Sirenix quest and that sometimes they are not all that. I also love how you added elements of season 7 and Magical Adventure. I got a kick out of your word play here and there, and the whole "busted' thing. I cannot wait for the next one.
Stay awesome and keep doing you. :)
I wanted to give you big big thanks for this rewrite, because I stopped watching winx around that season because even as a kid I noticed that the writing wasn't as good as it used to and later I just grew out of it. Listening to your version made me go back to childhood and feel the same excitement as when I was a kid and about to watch a new episode. Thanks once more and I'm rushing to listen to the second part
i appreciate that u kept it in line with S4 story line and Roxy, bc/ i hated the begining of S5.
Omg. I LOVE THIS! Sometimes heroes don't win and this is the best. The stakes actually matter and the story is so compelling.
I would have loved to see something like this as an official storyline. Your really good at writing fanfiction. ^w^
I genuinely love the sprinkling of spice to parts of some character's personality. Miriam being a thrill-seeker and the image of Oratel screaming while Miriam laughing are both delightful!
I’m really happy for all the Roxy content. She was one of my favorite characters and S5 really did her dirty.
Say it louder for the people in the back!
I like how you specifically said that Griselda was like
"eeeeven sTeLlA"
I actually really enjoy these kind videos. I enjoy them because I like listening to people talk about what they do for a story.
Re-listening this and I still love it.
The reason they came back to being 16 is because seasons 1-4 are the og’s made in Italy and seasons 5-8 are the Nickelodeon ones so they’re actually different with just the same characters so season 1 in nick starts on the 5th season and so on that’s why season 9 is a reboot cause they’re gonna have 4 more seasons like the rest again
OMG this is so intriguing, and I am noticing the darkness overflowing the winx, I like this darker tone each time
