The Last Part Is Optional

An Incredibly Long and Wholly Unnecessary Disection of How Fate: The Winx Saga Missed the Mark on What Made the Winx Club Special

So, I decided to make this cause I have way too many feelings on this and I saw someone make something similar about a different franchise and loved it so here goes.

DISCLAIMER: If you’re a fan of the Winx Club and enjoyed Fate, I have nothing against you, these are just my feelings and I 1) am really glad you were able to enjoy it and 2) genuienely sorry a show you loved got canceled cause I know how much that sucks

SPOILERS FOR FATE AND THE FIRST 3 SEASONS OF THE WINX CLUB (AND A BIT OF SEASON 4)

One more thing: I’ve only watched Fate once since I’m not about to make myself rewatch it for this so if I forget any certain scene I apologize.

With that out of the way, the themes I will be discussing in this essay will be divided into 4 categories: The Problems I Have In General. Questions That Will Never Be Answered. Character Deep Dives/Character Rants. And finally, How Fate failed to capture the Essence of Winx Club.

These will be the themes of every category (feel free to skip any that may not interest you).

Listen up people, we need to make sure Abed wins the autismsummit2023. Vote for Abed in the upcoming poll (idk when it's going to be posted, but you can check in the autismsummit2023 tag). I'm being you to check the tag as much as possible. We cannot let him lose because not enough Abed fans know about the election. Spred the word too.

GUYS GUYS, ABED BARELY PASSESED ROUND 2 AND IN THE THIRD ROUND IS GOING TO BE PUT AGANIST ZUKO. WE NEED TO STEP UP OUR GAME AND GATTER EVERY COMMUNITY FAN TO VOTE FOR HIM. SPREAD THE MESSAGE. MAKE EDITS AND FANART ABOUT IT. POST IT IN OTHER SOCIAL MEDIA TOO. GO GO GO

Heard some important information on Twitter today, and thought I’d post it here for anyone who may not have heard it. This is actually a thing, devised by human rights organisation called Karma Nirvana.

Duffer Brothers : We're going to make a character that is so bland-

Joe Quinn : Funky little queer boy. Does a little jig. Weirdo. Joe Keery looks great with his top off. D&D. Nerd. Good with kids. Rings.

Duffer Brothers : Wait, no, he's supposed to have a rivalry with Steve like Billy did and-

Joe Quinn : No. They're in a gay relationship now. That's his boyfriend. Big boy.
