And The Fandom Rejoiced / Unicorn Of War Winx Club Rewrite Series

Go To

These rewrites were very well received by fans, and are considered superior to the canonical seasons, so you can expect this reaction a lot.


  • Unicorn of War is making a full-blown rewrite of Winx Club's later seasons? That's really cool!
  • The Winx are not retconned into being 16-year-olds again? Great!
  • We get to actually see the Winx growing up and maturing as adults, further exploring where Season 4 left off? That's awesome!
  • Many people were happy to see that Roxy gets far more of a focus in these rewrites, compared to the official seasons where she is Out of Focus.
  • Additionally, the Lighter and Softer elements of the later seasons were replaced with the Darker and Edgier elements of the earlier ones, making the show more mature and even including LGBT elements into the series as well as dealing with heavy topics such as miscarriage (Flora's story) and loss of one's culture (Stella's story).
  • Bloom is portrayed with far more faults and character growth in these rewrites compared to the official seasons, where she was Flanderized into a Mary Sue that is overly perfect and hogs up most of the focus and screentime from other characters.
  • People were very happy to see that Diaspro was not made into a villain the season 5 rewrite but instead got redeemed, as well as getting some Adaptational Sympathy in Season 5 with her past about her parents and her reasons for loving Sky so much. This is further accentuated in Season 6 with her getting Enchantix after saving Brandon.
  • Nabu gets brought back here, which gets rid of the Unfortunate Implications that the original series left with his death.
  • The removal of any love drama in the original seasons, such as the constant Riven and Musa drama that nearly all of the later seasons had.
  • The implementation of LGBT elements into the rewrite in Season 6.
  • Bringing back characters like Chimera in the Season 6 rewrite.
  • Generally, the removal of all the retcons the canon seasons had (such as the Winx still attending Alfea despite graduating and Daphne being a spirit instead of dead) made fans quite happy.
  • Musa's past with her mother is further explored in this rewrite, at least compared to the official series.
  • Sirenix makes its return in the Season 6 rewrite, which many were happy about.
  • A lot of people were also happy to see some villains from the comics appearing in the rewrite too.
  • Stella still being the fairy of both the sun AND the moon, as well as having her lunar side be explored in Season 6 was received very well.
  • Likewise, doing more with Stella's parents' divorce in the rewrites was a pleasure too.
  • Giving the Legendarium and Acheron an actual interesting backstory and lore, unlike the canonical seasons where neither didn't really have much in terms of backstory.
  • Bringing back the Black Circle in the season 6 rewrite and giving Ogron an actual motivation for his actions.
  • Roxy getting Ardorix
  • Roxy also playing a bigger role in the rewrites unlike the canon seasons where she was Demoted to Extra
  • Selina and Bloom's relationship getting more depth and nuance compared to the original series.
  • Darkar returning in episodes 17 and 18 of season 6.
