Just wondering ?

First topic message reminder :

I'm Stella Fan, but I'm so wondering why the fourth season is all about Bloom, Stella, and Aisha. Three of them are always get in Spotlight. Just Curious.

I agree with Tecna and Flora not getting enough spotlight times. I mean, we don't even know their parents. I just hope that later on it's more focused on them.

^ Well, at least we've seen Flora's planet and her sister.

It's true that the three of them got too much attention, especially in season 5. Even if we saw each planet, it wasn't enough, it was like "we're just passing by". They need to develop more each character, especially Tecna. We don't know anything about her. We can also see that on magazine's cover, we never see Tecna. Even in Sailor Moon, there are some episodes focusing on the other girls. I think that it is also related to the merchandising, there are more Bloom, Stella and Aisha dolls.

I think this is the one issue about Seasons 4 and 5: There's so many things going on, it's scattered all across the show. So much to focus on, I'm surprised the Winx are keeping up with EVERYTHING. But it doesn't go too well with our viewing pleasure.

-Winx become teachers at Alfea
-They learn about infinite fairy forms
-Sky is Pre-King of Eraklyon; canceled plot; so he appears more
-New villains: Wizards of the Black Circle
-"The Last Fairy on Earth" - NOT BLOOM
-Going to Earth
-Living on Earth; not working too well
-Living on their own together
-The boys come down to Earth to protect them
-Boys start living on their own
-The Believix Power
-Get people to believe in fairies
-Roxy
-Getting Jobs
-Love & Pet
-The Pixie Pets
-Morgana
-The White Circle
-BOYS
-Relationship Drama
-Musa X Riven
-Musa X Jason
-Bloom X Sky
-Stella X Brandon
-Mitzy
-Mizy falling for Brandon
-The 3 Wings of Believix
-Roxy's acceptance as a fairy
-The Warrior Fairies
-The Gifts of Destiny
-Diana's arc
-Sybilla
-Aurora's arc
-Bloom VS Nebula
-The Wizards' trial
-Nabu's coma
-Aisha's revenge
-Finale (but this is needed; but so much happens in parts)

I may be complaining too much; but a LOT of things happen. Whether it's necessary or not. Personally, Season 4 may have started to regress the girls in their development from Seasons 1-3. Taking a step back, to be more specific.

Also, I've come to notice that Seasons 4-5 have been made purely advertisement and marketing. It's also a huge sign of characters losing character development. So much content in the seasons, it's so overwhelming. Belevix; Pixie Pets, etc. The list just goes on an one.

Also, I think the show has become a lot more feminized, starting with Season 4. I remember being so excited for the new season back in 2009. But when I see the season now, it started off promising, but it became close to feeling so "superficial". You know what I'm saying?

Yeah, I know what you mean. I was also excited to see season 5, but it wasn't what I expected. I find the dialogues superficial and it doesn't make the story progress.
And the fact that they begin something and not finish it, it's frustrating. For example, what's the point of introducing Krystal if she's not going to interfere between Flora and Helia? There are many things lacking in this season to make it very interesting.

yeah I agree. I didn't like how there were so many transformations in Season 4 either. Lately, the show may be a little narcisstic, so of course you would notice superficiality. I forgot about Krystal but shes probably gone into the black hole of Winx Club. I like the second half of Season 5 better though, but its only saving grace is the action.

Seriously?! Flora and Helia drama thing with Krystal just like cut-off, we didn't see Krystal anymore, I am really, REALLY DISAPPOINTED about Tecna and Flora being pushed aside.

Only Musa, wasn't that much pushed aside, but still, she was.

But totally, I am really disappointed at how they are treating Tecna,
-We don't see her parents, we can, but only on comics.
-We don't see her whole planet.
-We barely know anything about her.
-She just barely gets the spotlight, I think she never had spotlight... Confused

And with how they are treating Flora,
-We just barely see her speak, or doing something.
-Seems like she was replaced by Aisha.
-She only does few actions. (Thats my opinion.)

^I hope atleast you gotta agree with one of the things I wrote. Razz

I am totally sad about it...

Subject: Re: Just wondering ? Wed Mar 06, 2013 7:51 pm

Sigh. Days like these is when I missed the days when Tecna had a Brittish accent. That was the coolest Tecna ever.

I think this is what's most upsetting about half of the main characters being pushed aside:

The remaining half that DO get the spotlight aren't even proven to be any better.

So what's the freaking point? I love Molly Quinn's voice for her, but she made Bloom sound so sad in these troubling Season 5 episodes. Stella's voice is acceptable, but she just whines about everything. Not attractive at all. Aisha; the only one I feel sorry for right now.
