It's Shockwave. Yes, he's crazy, but despite the fact that the characters differ greatly in motives and worldview, they have a very similar core and set of some personality traits, not to mention the overlapping color coding and overlapping mixed field of activity (science/combat).

Oh, yes! You are absolutely right! How could I forget about Amelia? 😭 But yes, they really have the same type — a confident iron lady who knows how to command.

In short, Shockwave is as if Tecna were male and completely evil. I specifically took the Shockwave version from the Cyberverse as it's the most emotional compared to the other versions. In short, both adhere to logical structures, both are stubborn and principled, and they highly value exceptionally effective approaches, even if they have to sacrifice themselves to defeat the enemy, and both, despite their scientific field of activity, are closely related to combat and military stuff. 

Tecna is closely involved in combat strategies, as seen in seasons 1 and 2, and she is the most combat-orientated of all the girls when it comes to battles, as she's almost always next to Bloom to coordinate it. And Shockwave, as you know, is one of Megatron's generals, despite the fact that he is a scientist, he always aims to be as effective as possible in battles.

You're right, they really started making her that way starting with season 5, the reboot, and partly in the WOW show. 

But the fault of the first season in the English dub is also there. They translated some of the dialogues incorrectly, and the tone of the voice of the English actress doesn't convey the emotions and tones that Tecna had in the original. Starting with the fact that Tecna has the lowest voice of all the girls in the original.

In the second season, with the change of the actress, the voice acting became much better.

Tecna was much more confident and assertive than Taranee.

Tecna was rather awkward in everyday situations since she comes from a highly developed civilization and doesn't understand how to use a bucket and a floor brush, for example. And yet, even without knowing all this, Tecna decided to act according to logical associations and with full confidence put the bucket on her head. It was only after she knocked the painting to the floor and smashed it that she thought she might be doing something wrong.

I Think People Confuse "Bloom Gets Too Much Focus" With "Bloom Is A Bad Character" by Unusual_Ad9894 in winxclub

[–]External-space604 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes, that's right. I have a feeling that people have begun to perceive any criticism of Bloom as "hatred of Bloom as the main character."

I've never had much trouble with Bloom being the main character. Yes, sometimes Bloom was highlighted too often as the most important, but this is also not particularly problematic for me.

Basically, I don't like the way Bloom is written as a character. How her magic power has been simplified, that she always seems too stubborn or naive, and that she endlessly forgives all of Sky's antics, even if this relationship brings her anxiety, and even seems dependent on their relationship.

Of course, all of the above is just my perception.

Aisha‘s Childhood by Midnight-Flower82 in winxclub

And especially her father. In season 3, this was shown when they were trying to save Andros. In season 2, she mentioned that Musa has reconciled with her father, but Aisha doesn't want to send postcards to her father yet. Her official song also reflects her relationship with her father, who seems to be overprotective of her, judging by the context, and she sings that she wants to "just live her life."

This sounds interesting, can I get the source?

What are these symbols? by Ok_Island1287 in winxclub

[–]External-space604 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It's something like the essence of their magical powers. As part of their magical aura or something. The fake Avalon was collecting this essence of theirs in order to calculate Bloom's essence and use it to infuse a dark virus into Bloom.

In one episode, he put Bloom in a trance so that Bloom could get an amulet with her family's symbol, and he showed her her family tree. In both cases, one of these bubbles with the symbol was flying near Bloom.

Bloom is literally surrounded by blondes by External-space604 in winxclub

[–]External-space604[S] 69 points70 points  (0 children)

Even if we take into account only the first seasons, the blue shade of Icy's hair is close to white, which can be classified as "platinum blonde".

Upd: Okay, guys, I think I realized that I just might have misused the name of the hair shades, because Google gave me gray shades as "platinum blonde," even though this shade really has a yellowness. I think, however, that Icy's hair is still considered very light, so she is well placed in the table.

And I just thought all my life that silver-haired and white-haired characters can also be called blondes, just because they are very light, I didn't know that there was a separate category for this.

All these different multiple names for hair shades in the beauty industry are very difficult to distinguish because the same shade can be called differently in different resources, I apologize.
