* Okay, this is going to sound like a complaint, but I promise it's not. In both the comics (I just finished reading this one) and the show, Bloom returns home and decides she doesn't want to be a fairy anymore after being betrayed by Sky. I just can't wrap my head around why she would quit over such a thing. She said it was her dream to be a fairy. Why would anyone give up their dreams over such a thing? Betrayal hurts, I know first-hand, but to give up your dreams over a guy?

* Is [[{{FairyDreamer}} this troper]] the only one who likes 4kids Layla better than RAI Layla? With basically the whole club being boy-crazy (especially Stella), it was kind of nice to have a girl who couldn't care less about guys. It's not like 4kids erased her having insecurity issues. Same thing with the mild jealousy thing during the mission to rescue the pixies (which, in my opinion, makes Bloom seem like a child). And I also liked how, even when they gave her a boyfriend, she didn't go crazy over him right away.
* In the Season 2 episode where Layla runs off crying after Stella refers to the group as "the five of us", 4kids had changed this to Stella suggesting they have a sleepover and tell their best friendship stories. When Musa goes out to comfort Layla, she explains that she got upset because she hasn't a best friend in a long time (and therefore has no "best friendship" stories to tell). Many people view Layla's reaction as a WTH/WTF moment, but to this troper, it makes sense. Layla basically grew up isolated. The only (human/fairy) friend she had as a child moved away and while she did have the pixies, she had to sneak out to see, which, for all we know, may not have been too often. So while something like a sleepover would normally be exciting, for someone like Layla, it's scary and awkward. This troper has been in the same position. It does make sense.

** Well, the witches are allowed to cause trouble, but get in trouble if they're caught. Perhaps they thought Mirta was ditching school and thought nothing of it, since, if she really had been, she'd only get in trouble if she was caught doing so. Or it might be that since Mirta was a nice witch, they figured she somehow transferred to Alfea.

** If this troper recalls properly, it was stated very early on in the war that communication had been cut off. Most of the Magical Dimension propably didn't even KNOW there was a war until after it was won.

**Well Icy is the most evil one out of the three of them. She's very hateful and cruel just for fun, and I'd assume that hatred weighs in on a witch's strength. Also, Icy is charismatic so I'd assume that also contributes to a witch's strength. And actually, her ice *can* kill people, it's just that we usually see Stella unfreezing the frozen person or Bloom unfreezing herself before the coldness of the ice would actually suck the life out of the frozen person.



**My guess is the Winx or Faragonda or Griffen informed that guy squad that the Trix were in the Realix realm, so the guy squad came, took them, turned them back into individual witches again, took and destroyed their Gloomixes, and then froze the witches. That's how they are the first time we see them in season 3 when the guy squad drops them in the Omega Dimension.



* Red Fountain is a military academy, which trains its students in the arts of war. Even if most of them are just there for ceremonial reasons, the fact that it still exists suggests that at least one planet which sends students to Magix must have an army of fully trained, possibly experienced soldiers. Why, then, at the end of S1, didn't anyone think to call in this military force, instead entrusting the defence of Alféa to a force of inexperienced, partially-trained teenagers? Even though the teens were capable of repelling the invasion, it just makes sense to have as many fighters as possible to maximise the probability of victory.

* Was it really necessary to introduce the Believix transformation? I mean, those extra sets of wings are cool and all that, but Enchantix was like supposed to be the final fairy form. And Bloom's Enchantix wasn't even complete until after the events of the first movie, so you'd think she'd be happy that she had managed to gain her full Enchantix even though it was thought to be impossible, but no, once she learns there's another transformation level she immedietly decides that she would rather be a Believix fairy...

** While the guesses below were good, I always tought that she just got an incomplete Believix, just as Bloom got an incomplete Enchantix on Pyros. She was unable to use her other wings because she took a shortcut.
