So, there's a topic somewhere around here about how you first heard of/saw Winx. But what was it that made you keep watching?
I think for me, it's that first of all, I really like modern fantasy in general. And the idea of being thrust into a new world where there is magic and whatnot has always fascinated me. I also like that they branched out into some more uncommon powers (like music and technology).
Their personalities also drew me in. They were different, but they clicked, and each girl had something about them I could identify with.
At first, the art style was kind of jarring to me, and I couldn't decide if I liked it or not. But that now I'm used it it, I'm more fond of it. At least it's distinct.
To be honesty, Winx has always been sort of a guilty pleasure for me .___. I'm really not very "girly" at all, and most shows that have to do with teenagers make me want to barf. Not to mention the sometimes-hilarious 4kids script. But something about it just made me stick with it anyway.
How about you? O:

I think I'd have to agree with you on pretty much everything you just said. I don't have too many girly shows I get into, other than Winx. And yeah we all know it can be predictable and silly and probably made for kids much younger than us, but doesn't mean we're going to stop watching it xP.
It was the humor and theme of mixing the modern world with the magical world that first grabbed my attention. Then, I began to love watching the relationships grow between the characters. Call me corny, but I like to see friends acting like friends, sticking up for each other, laughing, yelling, fighting for what's right. I guess I never got that experience in high school since most of my friends were pretty fake as it was, and perhaps I'm vicariously living out my high school dreams through cartoon characters. Lol, sad I know. Whatever the reason, I love the idea of a tight-knit group of friends. It's a refreshing change to the common dysfunctional relationships I've noticed in many modern cartoons/shows.

Outfits and character designs? Honesty, the stories didn't attract me much. When the first time I've begin to watch winx club, I just got attracted by their beautiful animations, Magic, outfits and character design (After some time I discovered that their animation aren't so good. And also really familiar that what I've imagined how my fantasy land are like since young. [i](I love magic, fairies and all those fictional creatures! And when I was still a naive girl, I believe their existence!)
And honesty, if I didn't went to their company site, I didn't know that Tommy and Oscar is part of Rainbow production! I was surprised as I soon begin to discovered that Straffi have different styles of drawings, unlike disney. (Disney have their own ways of drawings too, except their eyes which I've discovered are almost the same.)
