Why Season Four Will Be Nick’s Best Season Yet

Missed the last episode of season three? Nickelodeon has it up in full on their website.

Yep, we’re already back to season four! Why will it be the best season so far?

It’s not anything in the season itself—not Roxy, the Fairy Hunters, the Believix powers, the gifts of destiny, the fairy pets, the battles, the relationship drama. None of that.

No, there’s a better reason why more fans, old and new, will enjoy season four more…

Because 4Kids never dubbed it.

Since the first special aired, both the 4Kids and Cinelume dub fans have complained about the “changes”: the music, the voices, the plot edits, Layla’s name—you mention it. Then came season three. While the Cinelume side only had to warm up to the new voice cast, the 4Kids side also had to adjust to the “real” feel of the show—that is, more like the original version.

Enter season four. The 4Kids fans will have nothing to compare it to. So they might enjoy it for what it is instead of harping on each difference they see. The Cinelume fans? Since Nick’s dub will probably be very similar, they’ll still only be nitpicking about the voices and such. But they’ll keep watching because “at least we get to see it on TV.”

Happier viewers, more praise, better ratings. And when season five gets here, it’ll be even better.

Happy New Year, and here’s to more Winx Club in 2012! How do you feel Nickelodeon is doing with it so far?

Flora’s Santa Outfit: Too Risqué? *UPDATE*

Have you seen the latest Christmas article from the official website? It shows this image of Flora:


I did a double take when I saw it. She looked naked at first. The Santa coat is barely visible behind her arm and the magic light. And her pose, combined with the lipstick, comes off somewhat “Victoria’s Secret” to me.

I hear fans say all the time they wish the Winx wore more cloth, and I definitely agree. The Sophiex “collection” was probably the worst in terms of modesty.

This outfit? She’s covered, but still…

What do you think?

*UDPATE* Thanks to Marie for the high quality version of the pic. Flora’s dress is a bit easier to see now. I still have a problem with her pose, though.

Any thoughts now that the picture’s clearer?

Roxy’s Season Five Outfit? (Or not…)

I found this picture on deviantART. Obviously this is fan art, but the artist claims the outfit is official.

I seriously doubt it, especially since she made that comment in April when nothing was known about season five. Could this have come from something else? A magazine, maybe? (The artist seems to be Russian.)

Or is it just fan art?

Official Web Site Gets a Redesign *UPDATE*

The Winx website has got a slightly updated look. See for yourself! Here’s a preview below:

Pretty nice, huh? Looks like there are still a few bugs to squash, though. Did you notice the video area is cut off at the bottom? Oops!

Another problem: why isn’t Roxy in the header anymore?

Now I’m worried. Excuse me while I go cry for a bit… :cry:

*UPDATE* The website’s down again. That’s been happening a lot lately. Maybe the redesign was the reason why. Oh well. Keep checking back. =)

Aisha Earns Her Enchantix (Nickelodeon Dub)

Nickelodeon has finally put up two new clips. In this one, Aisha becomes an Enchantix by giving up the chance to cure her blindness to heal the mermaid queen.

I keep hearing Enchantix as the term for the fairy, as in “she’s an Enchantix.” I think it was used that way in 4Kids’s dub, too. Is that right?

Anyway, enjoy!
