Hello I'm the Winx-Critic. I remember it so 당신 don't have to! So today the Winx will be traveling to Alfea. Oh boy...let's just hope beyond hope that they didn't completely screw the scenery and teachers over. /takes a deep breath/ So, let's get on with the review.
The episode starts off with *le gasp* an actual decent CGI shot? For once, they've used this technology correctly, the opening probably being the best one I've seen yet. But, I am soon slapped back into this horrible reality when I hear Faragonda's voice. It's bland. Just like all the others! Honestly, she sounds like Tecna 또는 Flora but with an "old-lady accent". I mean...come on! 당신 even make the headmistress herself sound dull? Now, even her speech sounds weird. When she introduces Roxy and says, "She's here at Alfea, thanks to some of your fellow students...the Winx!" Honestly, the way she said "thanks to some of your fellow students" sounds like she was going to follow up that statement with a sentence other than "the Winx!" For one, I thought she was going to say "(....) she can now begin learning the steps to becoming a powerful fairy." 또는 something along that line. Not, "the Winx!"
And now, here's where this scene pisses me off. Why does everyone worship them like freaking royalty? Even in season four people didn't follow them blindly. And, what's up with Alice (AKA: the blond chick with pigtails) loving them and being so nice towards them? I thought during season four, she and her 프렌즈 hated the Winx? I just...did 당신 forget about that little detail? I mean, 당신 shouldn't have missed it considering that it was just one season ago! The whole thing with the students gawking over Stella is just...why. And then, when Roxy shows up, where are her yellow/orange highlights? "Oh 저기요 girls, don't worry, I'm sure my hair will return back to normal in the 다음 scene! Up, there we are!"
After all that foolishness (Yes I agree with Grizelda. She is my spirit-animal in this version) the Specialist arrive. After all the boys make their way to the girls, another bitch-move is pulled off when no one really gives a crap about Layla's feelings. This time, Bloom pays slight attention but only because Sky hasn't arrived yet. Once he does, we cram in some 랜덤 flashbacks and unneeded drama. Oh but this drama doesn't end there! Awkward moment in three, two, one...! Yes, a girl named Krystal has just joined the scene and she is, supposedly the princess of Linphea—ruining all notions that Flora ever was. (I don't wanna sound mean, but, to all those who thought she was...I TOLD YA SO) So, what doesn't make sense to me is how Flora didn't know that she was the princess. She's from Linphea, isn't she? So how can 당신 not know who the princess of your own planet is?! Granted Krystal is 4 years younger than Flora, but, 당신 should still now who the princess of your kingdom is! Regardless of their age!
So after this pointless drama, Bloom tells Miss Faragonda that she needs to speak with her. After explaining the situation, she tells them that they need to acquire—shocker!—a new power. (And I actually 사랑 the line Stella says: "And just when I thought we were done." 당신 and me both) She explains to them that they first need to find the book of Sirenix, but this will be very difficult because she does not know where it is. She does however know that Daphne was the last fairy to get it, the Winx having to find her to know where the book is.
The girls then proceed to try and find something on Sirenix, Tecna using her gadgets to look into every known database, they finding nothing. This is suddenly interrupted 의해 the plot barging in as Tessa informs them that Neptune is very angry over what has happened. Naturally.
We zoom in to Andros where two of these mer-pixies (I don't know if they're Lemmy and Phylla...they all look the same honestly) explain that Tritannus is not just a mer-man; he's a monster! *gasp* Neptune denounces his son dramatically (As all upset parents would do to their disturbed children) and sets off to look for him; completely ignoring is wife's and son's pleas.
Back at Alfea, Bloom is derping around in the woods and soon begins creeping around these butterflies. They soon lead her to a lake where they transform into...Daphne? Oh okay. When Bloom asks where she can find the Sirenix book, Daphne flips her shit and goes against the power itself. Thus leading to, 당신 guessed it, a flashback! Daphne explains that when the Ancestral Witches attacked Domino, they turned Sirenix against her and when she tried to defend herself, her spell backfired and she was turned into the spirit she is today. Despite these horrors that could await her sister if she fails (Which usually happens anyways) Daphne reveals the location of the book. And of course, it's in Alfea.
Back in Andros, we see Tritannus derping around and not really doing anything useful, that is, until we hear Icy's annoying voice suddenly appear. Icy explains to him that the Winx have returned to Alfea and after some painfully slow reactions from Tritannus, she suggests that they should go over and attack them. But, not before logical Darcy has something to say! She points out that every time they fight them they're always defeated since the Winx are apparently stronger. So, like all other villains before him, Tritannus uses his powers to make the Trix 더 많이 powerful. Yep, because ya know, originality!
At Alfea, the Winx—along with Sky—make their way into the Magical Archives. Now, I don't see why they're so mystified 의해 it. They've all been there before in season two. And, where is Concorda? She's the one that guards the archives and she usually appears as soon as someone walks in. She should be the one helping them find this book, not them just walking around and hoping to find it. But, as they're looking the Trix suddenly appear and fight like they are 더 많이 powerful. The Winx have a hard time defending themselves and most of their shields and attacks do nothing.
As they are fighting, Brandon and Helia who are keeping watch outside hear something and head off to the archives. Now, they're outside, as in, on the school grounds. If they can hear the commotion going on from out there, why hasn't any teacher 또는 other student heard the commotion? When they arrive, Darcy tries to attack Flora but Helia jumps in and he's injured. (This scene making Krystal appear like a total moron. "*Shakes him* I think he's hurt!" No shit, Sherlock) The two girls drag him out of harms way and Krystal soon heals him.
Back in the archives, the Trix are kicking some fairy ass. When Stormy creates that dragon-thing out of books, that was awesome! But, the Winx finally transform and eventually knock out Darcy and Stormy. When Layla steps in and traps Icy in a Morphix Shield, Icy breaks out 의해 freezing the entire thing and blasting ice shards in every direction. (Which is totally bad-ass right there) Bloom is hit and she is hurt, landing on one of those levitating platforms. Just as Icy is about to deliver the final blow, Sky jumps in in the nick of time and saves Bloom.
As Sky lands on the ground, defeated, (Hehe, punk ass) Faragonda and Grizelda finally enter the archives, the Trix...leaving? What, are 당신 three suddenly afraid of these two 또는 something? 당신 took over Clowdtower and Redfountain and defeated Darkar and rose an ancient army! How can 당신 possibly be afraid of those two?! So they leave and Bloom rushes down to see is Sky is alright. Surprisingly, he wakes up despite the incredibly high fall which should have broken his back, and as Bloom hugs him, he is shocked, soon asking, "Who are you?" And this begins the never-ending cliches. Woo-hoo.
사무용 겉옷, 전반적인 this episode was okay. The drama between Bloom and Sky and Flora and Krystal was boring and I really didn't care. The scene with the Trix was probably the only decent thing that happened in the whole episode, and even that had a disappointing ending. And this whole thing with Sky having amnesia is just...why? It's not even that suspenseful. I can bet 당신 that in the upcoming episodes Diaspro is going to magically show up and Sky will remember her and feel feelings for her and not Bloom. It's just...so predictable, it's painful.
I'm the Winx Critic. I remember it so 당신 don't have to! Now, if Diaspro does show up, let's hope this Taco-Grande did a job voicing her...
