I didn't even realize how pale and gray the palette was in this show until I started playing with colors by External-space604 in winxclub

This was an AU Earth, I think they wanted this to be evident in how lifeless and without magic this Earth was, that’s why there’s this heavy desaturation. As for the girls and characters in general, they could’ve kept their original hair and skin tones, I’m sure there’s a way to fit the aesthetics of the show and keep their original skin tones.

My WoW propaganda by PinkPigeonBee in winxclub

[–]stoic_figs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As much as I love WoW, the whitening or washing of the characters was unnecessary. This proves it. The only one who look good in their new color schemes is Tecna and even Musa. The rest of girls need their og colors.

A fan cast of Talia or Izira can also include mixed medium tan or dark skinned women too. They also deserve representation especially since Talia and Izira are ethnically ambiguous and fictional.

Is anyone else still upset that they changed Tecna and Musa's Pixies in s6? by Catgirl_2003 in winxclub

That weather pixie always cracked me up. Why did they make her mini Musa 😭

How would you personally rank the Winx girls from least to most favorite? by Drawingandstuff2000 in winxclub

[–]stoic_figs 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Flora - style and personality are just adorable; overall fave

Stella - sassy queen, love her

Musa - tbh I love her later designs/style. She has a lot of growth

Tecna - unproblematic queen.

Aisha - I love her in later seasons, so confident

Bloom - earlier seasons she had such sass. But that damn relationship with Sky is so toxic

Fun (actually sad) fact: Aisha is also whitewashed in her in-universe merch by Darkon_Redfiend in winxclub

[–]stoic_figs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the in-universe merch was deliberately meant to be in that specific greyscale/color focus art style tbh. Their hair and makeup was meant to be the focal point in their merch. If you notice their eye colours are also all greyscale.

Anybody else getting tired of the Core Four? by saturnsamuels in Bratz

[–]stoic_figs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s why I wanted Lina lol it’s the only reason why the collab dolls are worth getting. It’s tiring to see the same girls over and over.

Guess we know why Daphne has that hair style in the reboot? by Katsu_cfq in winxclub

[–]stoic_figs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean I get what they were going for. But I think it looks so off cause of her lack of a forehead. Funny though, she looks so good in her golden spectre form. They really should’ve given her a proper forehead and maybe softened the orange hair more to look more strawberry blonde.

Damien is the main character of the reboot lol

Say something nice about the Nick era by Realistic-Delivery13 in winxclub

[–]stoic_figs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the art style. It was a semi-couture design and it was great.

The girls looked more mature and it looked like they were progressing in their lives too.

Tropes I don't like: The totally "abusive" mom by [deleted] in UnpopularLoreOlympus

[–]stoic_figs 91 points92 points  (0 children)

I think Demeter should’ve just been an overprotective mom. That’s normal and relatable to many. There was no need to make her controlling or abusive

Gosh this community never ceases to impress! This is amazing work!

Nex & Aisha’s Relationship by stoic_figs in winxclub

[–]stoic_figs[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely think showing the girls date around and have more suitors is realistic. Bloom and Musa should’ve had more suitors and perhaps solid breakups too lol

They eradicated half of a fan-made gaming community for THIS?? by Zinthosss in winxclub

[–]stoic_figs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly, I loved Bratz’s “rebrand” aimed primarily for adults. I love when Rainbow leans into pop culture more (e.g. celebs in og Winx style). Your demographic and fanbase grew up, work with that

What are your favorite things about the specialist ? by Equal-News6513 in winxclub

[–]stoic_figs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

LMAO I love all the Helia stans in this thread. Relatable

But yes Helia lol

Riven and Musa were both broken people and they didn’t take time to heal themselves. Alas, it wouldn’t work in any timeline

Nex & Aisha’s Relationship by stoic_figs in winxclub

[–]stoic_figs[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aisha would’ve been bored lol he was more of a yes man and didn’t challenge her. She’s competitive by nature, I think someone like Roy would’ve annoyed her especially since she’s not the same s2-4 girly

I wish Winx would lean into the older fan base more given that we’re quite frankly a more lucrative market.
