The animated television series Winx Club features characters designed
by former comic artist Iginio Straffi. The show's narrative takes
place in a magical dimension in which a group of fairy warriors
defends their universe from villains. The group, called the Winx Club,
attends and later graduates from the Alfea College for Fairies. They
are frequently supported by their romantic partners, known as the
Specialists, who study at the neighboring Red Fountain School. The
Specialists do not have magical abilities; they train to fight using
laser weapons.The titular club is led by Bloom, a student from Earth
who believed she was an average human until discovering her
flame-based fairy powers. The original group includes Stella, the
fairy of the Sun; Flora, the fairy of nature; Musa, the fairy of
music; and Tecna, the fairy of technology. They share an apartment on
the campus of Alfea. The fairy of waves, Aisha, is introduced in the
second season and becomes the group's sixth member. A seventh member,
Roxy, is introduced in the fourth season and occasionally joins the
other Winx Club fairies. Each season of Winx Club introduces new
villains who fight the main characters. A trio of witches called the
Trix are the Winx Club's most frequent adversaries.The characters of
Winx Club have become popular with audiences. Critical response to the
characters has been mostly positive, with praise for their positive
relationships and presentation of gender roles. The characters have
appeared in a variety of media, including the spin-off series World of
Winx, a comic book serial, and platform video games. In 2012, new
episodes of the series incorporated CGI-animated sequences that
rendered the characters in 3D. A live-action series based on Winx
Club, Fate: The Winx Saga, will debut in 2020 and feature many of the
original characters.In the original series (seasons 1â€"4), the
characters' mouths were animated to match the Italian voice actors,
who recorded their lines in Rome. The revived series, beginning with
the hour-long specials, was produced in English first. The specials
and seasons 5â€"6 were animated to match the Hollywood-based cast, who
recorded their lines at the Atlas Oceanic studio. Season 7 was also
matched to Nickelodeon and Rainbow's English scripts, but due to
budget cuts, Viacom relocated the voice cast from Hollywood to New
York City. Only actors from the two original casts are listed below.
