So I've wanted to add on to this post for a long time as I have been meaning to update the article, but I decided to write an add-on because I'm probably going to write a lot about Nick cancelling Winx Club.
I have changed my view of Nick cancelling Winx Club (because they didn't want it) because I thought for a moment and said: Wait, if they didn't want the show, why did they buy it? And here starts my rant. Nickelodeon probably purchased the show in 2011 with high hopes, probably thinking "We could turn this into the next Tinkerbell! GET JEFF BORKIN IN THE HOUSE!"
Seriously, Nick probably wanted this to be the next Tinkerbell. Fairies, Check. Cute and fashionable but not overly sexualized? Check. Friendly characters who NEVER fight (maybe...)? Check. You see a pattern? Nick wanted this to be a show with good enough ratings that it could shapeshift into Dora the Explorer. When I first discovered the show when the first special aired on Nickelodeon, I thought it was the greatest thing i'd ever seen besides Power Rangers. And I don't regret tuning in that day. I watched the specials, one by one when they came out, my eyes not lifting off the television. I don't have that thrill with Season 6 (I guess I get it with Season 7.. a bit) when I watch it. When I was watching some of the webisodes, I was bored out of my pants, switching tabs during ads and playing with my phone. It wasn't like that during the specials.
Thank you for reading this tiny add-on, and I appreciate your opinion, so please leave your comments below! ~Kat

JAKKS Pacific Dolls Rant
Hello guys, Kat here again. I felt like doing a post based on the JAKKS Pacific Winx Club dolls because I have been reading some info and it's been getting me fired up about JAKKS Pacific. I will be covering JAKKS' cancellation of many dolls, My take on the dolls, and much more to how much I hate JAKKS Pacific. So let's get started!
Honestly, when JAKKS Pacific Winx dolls came out I was so excited, because "Ohmigawd finally Winx dolls in the US YES!" (okay I wasn't really like that but still). But when I got the dolls I was a little disappointed. My first dolls I got from Christmas, which were Bloom, Stella, Flora, and Tecna. I played with them a lot, but I was kind of destructive with them, which later ended up where my Tecna doll has to wear other outfits I found because I lost her original, and Stella and Flora are beyond disgusting. All of their wings are missing. And as for Bloom, I still have her full outfit but her hand fell off because it got water in the joint and then it dried the peg and fell off.
I guess you could say I was bad with my dolls. And yes, it's true. But now, I care for them a lot because of what JAKKS did. I was worried I wasn't going to be able to get anymore because I thought they would stop making the dolls (because they were releasing new lines slowly), so I treated mine carefully after what happened to the ones before.
I'm assuming you don't want to hear me talk about my doll story. You came here for a rant, right? Well i'm starting now. I read some reviews about the JAKKS dolls a while back and most of them were bad. One was on the Bloom Everyday Fashion doll (basic) and it didn't get a good reaction from the reviewer. It was compared to Bloom Fruitti Music Bar by Witty Toys and she liked Witty toys more. She complained that she had to lean the JAKKS doll against the wall because she couldn't stand on her own, and she's so tall it's hard to fit her in other doll clothes.
Yeah, JAKKS dolls were horrible. Although the clothing quality is better than Witty Toys, they can't fit other dolls. So i'd prefer Witty Toys any day. I own a Bloom Harmonix Witty Toys doll (JAKKS face sadly) I received from my Italian relatives for Christmas, and she's in good condition. I don't play with her a lot because I keep her by my shelf of pictures, so all of her items are still on her and she's still fine. My JAKKS Harmonix dolls... ehh... they're a mess. Like, big one, worse than the Believix ones. I own Bloom, Stella, and Flora Harmonix, and their hair is beyond mess. It's a rat's nets mixed in with confetti. Sparkles stuck in the tangles, and the ponytails I put in (I thought i'd help a bit) make it worse. I don't even want to try to boil wash it.
I'm glad that JAKKS Dolls aren't being made anymore although I will miss being able to see Winx dolls on the shelves again. And i'm pretty sure most of you saw the JAKKS Pacific "Graveyard" Unadinoi-Winx posted, and that made me extremely angry, no kidding. I searched the pictures on Google for any significance and I found none. Combined with the Color Splash and Mythix dolls cancellation, I was mad at JAKKS. I knew I couldn't do much to boycott JAKKS, because, well i'm just a small fan nobody knows. So I kept the bubbling anger in my head.
When I learned that JAKKS was going to make the Bloomix dolls, I was actually excited. The hair quality recently improved and I was ready for Bloomix... until I learned that it was the last line to be made. I was really upset, but glad at the same time. I was sad that there would be no more new Winx
dolls, but glad to stop the canceling madness. I have, as of now, all of the Bloomix dolls but Tecna.
Well, At the moment, I am not a fan of JAKKS Pacific. Maybe my opinion will change in the future, but right now, it's staying the way it is. What do you think about JAKKS? Leave your comments below! <3

How Season 5 Should Have Been
Hello Guys! I felt like doing another post after writing about the Season 7 episodes being released, so I sat for five minutes thinking what I should think about. And I came up with what the title states. Well, I don't think you want to hear me blabbing about how I came up with my idea, so i'll get on with the post!
I think all Winx fans saw or heard about the tragedy of Season 5. Horrible scripts, Marionette animation, etc. So I decided I was going to write a mini-story of Season 5 the way it should have been. Enjoy!
Tritannus discovers he isn't going to be crowned Prince of the sea and is mad. He tries to steal the crown during the coronation, but fails and leaves. He schemes to steal the crown soon again. Tressa informs the Winx about what happened the previous day and the Winx come up with a plan to stop them. When Tritannus tries again to steal the crown unknown to Nereus, the Winx ambush him and stop him before he gets ahold of the crown.
The Trix learn of the fiasco in the sea and contact Tritannus to help him defeat the Winx and get the crown-- but for something else in return. To destroy the Winx. He agrees, and later on finds a jewel in the sea called the Rubiellous. When he picks it up, he harnesses the power of it and it makes him a monster with a staff that held the Ruby. He goes on a rampage to destroy all of the sea and the world soon enough.
But the Winx stop him. When he begins to wreck the Sea of Andros, the Winx harness the Power of Harmonix after earning it in a fight for their honor and travel down to Andros' waters to combat Tritannus. After the fight, they learn that to defeat Tritannus from wrecking Magix and the Seas, they will have to earn Sirenix.
After each and every fight, they learn a clue to earning Sirenix. One special one being that Daphne and Politea were Sirenix fairies, until Politea betrayed Daphne during a fight. Bloom tries to contact Daphne in her dreams to get clues about how to earn Sirenix, but to no avail. Until one night, after Faragonda informs them that they need to up their game versus Tritannus, Daphne finally contacts Bloom and tells her that they need to destroy the Rubiellous as that will make him powerless. They would also find a clue about Sirenix in The Magic Library.
And so they did. Bloom asked the library about Sirenix and found a book that claimed you will earn Sirenix by granting the wish of a friend. Bloom said they could try and grant a wish for Roxy, which they did. They earned Sirenix, and with it they dived underwater and fought Tritannus and the Trix in the final battle against them. The Winx did a Sirenix convergence, and it destroyed both the Rubiellous and knocked the Trix out of their Dark Sirenix forms. Tritannus became a merman again, and the seas were safe once more.
How was it? Please leave your comments down below on how it was!

Greek Season 7 Episodes Released
Hello guys! First of all, sorry for being so inactive, I had become busy with school and had to take a break from blogging for a year. But now that it's summer vacation, I can blog all the time!
So when it was getting close to the end of school, I had discovered that Greece was getting Season 7 episodes before Italy or anywhere. So I went on a hunt for the episodes. And what I sought I found, on EnchantixGermany's tumblr. I watched all of them in less than 2 hours, no lie.
I will link you the episodes, but be aware that I give all credit to EnchantixGermany for the episodes and I take no ownership or credit over them. Thanks!
Please click here for the episodes x) Thanks for reading!
