Why is seven such a difficult number? I mean, Winx always had more then seven characters.
Most shows have more than seven characters, but here I'm talking
main characters, the focus of the show. We've always had fans grumbling about how their favourite characters never get enough attention, or how we never get to see their background or where they came from. With seven, this isnt getting any better.
Shows such as Sailor Moon managed this very well, they had the inner Sailor Soldiers (Moon,Mars,Mercury,Venus,Jupiter) who were the main characters, then they introduced the Outer Sailor Soldiers (Pluto, Neptune, Ur****, Saturn) as secondary characters. Sure the Outers all got little sections of seasons focussed on them, but they were still shown as a different group. There were other secondary characters but they got their time to shine eventually, and this kept almost everyone happy.
I dont know if I see Roxy being a perminant member of the Winx Club. Her circumstances are different from Layla/Aisha's. She hasnt been to Alfea with the girls and therefore didnt have that bonding time. The Winx wont stay on Earth forever and she shows signs of not wanting to leave her Father, however this might change. I just wonder if she'll be a season feature and then become a secondary character, having encounters with the Winx occasionally, although Im not sure how they would work that out...something to do with the Fairies of the White Circle? Im not sure.
Well, my point was that the Winx Club might become a little bit like a class at school. The more people in it, the less attention everyone recieves, and I'm not sure that RAI wanted the show to go this way. I have nothing against Roxy at all, I just dont know if she'll be perminant.
