specialist training seems to be just people in black walking around campus picking fights with each other
Quinn Angstrom
like some of them are on training arenas but some of them are just hanging out on the lawn punching each other off of bridges
Master Chieve
I had never even HEARD of Winx before this appeared
Quinn Angstrom
I had heard the title but that's about it
A Grinning DM
I was only aware of the original Winx because it replaced Megas XLR on Cartoon Network
Master Chieve
okay the title sounded familiar but like I could have told you anything about it with a gun to my head

It was an original Italian magical girl show when the genre was big over there in the 2000s. First localized by 4kids and then Nickelodeon, it's still going today, but in response to hemorrhaging fans, started to skew younger to grab a new audience. As an attempt to keep the older fans and draw in lapsed ones, they then made... this mess.

Yeahhhhhhhh. Terra seems like they were trying to go for sweet and supportive like her counterpart Flora but then just... couldn't, and Stella, they saw "Blonde, fashion-loving, involved in a love triangle... and friendly? Helpful? No, no, that won't do."

Flora just strangled someone as a warning
