#winx redesign

Ok sorry if this isnt about your rewrite, im not familiar with Winx club at all, but are they actually called "Magixians"????? It sounds a little orientalist to me since from what I know winx club is pretty western for a show & theres no need to add the x in there besides to make it sound chinese. But like you dont have to answer this at all if you dont wanna!! Well aware i could probably just search it up. Hope you have a good day!!! Your art is terrific!!!

Yes, you could do a little research first

I personally chose the term "magixians" (English translation of "magixiani", since I'm Italian) to define humanoid beings endowed with magic, to distinguish them from humans on Earth

But, since you don't know, I'll explain to you that I simply took the name from the city/planet of M A G I X, already present in the series

To me it doesn't seem like a way to make the word sound Chinese at all The show may have many problems, but here y'all are making a fruitless witch hunt over a word

Will there be new kingdoms, or will any of those already mentioned in the comics appear? I found the conflict between Eraklyon and the Kingdom of Karunda interesting, as well as the fact that Sky and Diaspro were active participants in it.

This kingdom in particular no

But something akin to a "civil war" is brewing on Solaria, with the whole situation of the people being divided I have a soft spot for stories with political and historical subplots

Will Thoren exist in your rewrite?

Most likely not

From what I remember he was a pretty useless character, just a ken to marry off to a revived Daphne (still the dumbest idea in HISTORY 🙄)

Since my version of Daphne won't be resurrected as a Jesus Christ Superstar wannabe, he will not exist

At most I might think of recycling his name or his appearance for some secondary character

One thing I feel is being wasted is that Saladin, Griffin, and Faragonda seemed to be a thousand years old in the original series—implying they might have known the ancestors or lineages of some of their current students. I don't know how you plan to develop this, but I actually like the harrowing idea that their eternity is painful and that they have to come to terms with it. Just imagine how many students they must have lost over time.

Could you explain how they are viewed by the students' parents or kingdoms? We know they are respected to some degree, but to what extent by the rulers of other planets?

My solution is simply that magixians also increase their longevity, if skilled enough with magic.

So the three of them, being very powerful, managed to live up to 200-300 years. A magixian can easily reach 100 years of age without any problems. If they're a powerful fairy, a witch or a wizard, even more.

BUUUUT This also means that our 6 protagonists, since it's already established by the canon that they will reach the maximum level of Enchantix fairies, could outlive their own parents

Wops~ 😗🤷🏻‍♀️

The three headmasters are undoubtedly among the most skilled magic wielders of all time and are admired and respected by everyone in the Magic Dimension. This is why King Oritel chose them as members of the Company of Light. He could have chosen only young members, like himself and his wife, but he knew well that strength and power are nothing without the knowledge and wisdom of who is older

Surely some parents may have something to say about their somewhat borderline teaching methods, but it's not a good idea for them to start arguing about it

Galatea's mother is much younger than her husband; was it an arranged marriage or something like that?

Most royal weddings in the Magic Dimension are arranged

Galatea's parents are a somewhat special case. King Garonimus had been looking for a woman to marry for a long time but she never seemed to be the right one, he found all the young women he was proposed to uninteresting and bland.

But one day, when he was about to give up, he saw a beautiful girl with a face as white as a lotus flower sitting on the porch of a little house, in the middle of an orchard. Intrigued by her unusual appearance for a Melody resident, he approached to ask her name, but was surprised to see that the girl didn't seem to recognize him as her king; she hadn't immediately knelt down like everyone else. In fact, it was the girl herself who asked for his name first. Only after he announced himself he noticed how the girl, embarrassed by her lack of etiquette, bow to him but holding on to a wood pillar next to her. The girl was blind.

He gently approached and helped her up by taking her hand. With that simple gesture, breaking all the boring court rules, the king had "signed his death sentence", he had completely fallen in love with her. Their love transcends all barriers: physical appearance, age difference, social classes and all royal norms. They both respect each other deeply and have found in each other the companionship and affection they were looking for.

To outsiders, Garonimus's love may seem almost morbid, like that of a greedy man who only wants to keep his treasure all for himself. But the truth is that all the attention he reserves for his beloved wife is more than well-founded because of Allegra's poor health situation

Allegra loves him for his kind attentions for her, but above all she loves him for the way he seems more genuine with her, free from any royal constraints. And she also loves his curiosity and thirst for knowledge

Theirs was not a conventional marriage but it was certainly not devoid of love and affection 💗

What is your opinion and rewrite ideas on wizards in winxclub? My opinions they are pretty average

Let's just say we haven't had many examples of good wizards in the series

Off the top of my head, only Saladin comes to mind

Looking at the wiki I see that there is something more: other schools specifically for wizards (entirely for male students obviously 🙄)

My idea is to give them a religious-like background

Nabu for example studied magic with the wizard-monks of Ohm, the Order of the Great Mother. They are the few in the Magic Dimension who worship the Mother Butterfly, another primordial force (like the Great Dragon and the Shadow Phoenix) who they believe created all living beings. These monks are inspired by the Air Nomads from Avatar, as I imagine their lifestyle and spirituality. In fact, Nabu has butterfly tattoos on his arms that are somewhat reminiscent of Aang's arrows

Saladin, on the other hand, is one of the keeper of the Lynphea's Orbs, that purple sphere that is embedded in his staff. These are magical artifacts that represent the union of the main peoples of Lynphea (and Eros): the Magixians, the Felinaaris, the Unicorns and the Elves (one of the orbs was entrusted to Vexius, an elf, before his betrayal to the Kingdom of Domino). These four purple orbs are placed on the Altar of Life during the Yaruma Festival, to celebrate the union between these people and nature. So Saladin's staff contains more of a spiritual and sacred power but not actual magic, he uses it to channel his own magic
