Back to Helia....there was something about him I didn't like at the beginning. When he rescued Flora from the rampant dragon at Red Fountain I was like "ooh, he's a nice guy afterall and not weird, creepy, and introverted" lol. But then after he saved Flora and he knew she was safe he basically let the dragon loose on the other characters and walked away. Okay, fine, he saved Flora once. What would he ever do if the dragon he let loose attacked Flora again XD. And he would have been gone, drinking coffee at starbucks, brainstorming poetry not to care =P. I think his indifference to the other characters is harming is image. So i'd agree to say bye bye to Helia, though I guess he is better now that he is a Specialist.
As for fairy, I would let go of Layla/Aisha. Again, it's the attitude thing. I love tomboys and funny girls, but she was too rude to the boyfriends at the beginning. Her over confidence at anything manly is very annoying. I think if she acted a bit more natural and wouldn't show up the boys so much I'd take back what I said. Overall, she's not that bad. I think the 4kids voice though is affecting me more than her actual personality. They make her sound a bit too ghetto, but maybe that's just me.

QUOTE (terriordx32 @ Apr 17 2008, 08:47 PM)  i would let techna go, she annoys me to, and she only the brains
out of the boys to me sky or brandon can go
and i dont really care bout the pixies or w/e there called Even though I would never evict her, I can see why some would want to evict Tecna. But I blame it on the writers and not so much her actual personality. I think I connect most with Tecna, as she is responsible and mature, and maybe being older makes me love those parts of her character the most. Also her intelligence, since I love knowledge and learning. But as for younger kids, I can see how they might never relate to someone who's a little too far advanced for them. Also, and this irks me quite a bit, the dialogue the writer's give her is so empty. They overuse words like "logical" and "by my calculations." Really, no one talks like that. It annoys the crud out of me. I just ignore those instances where the writer's stereotype her character and focus on the funny, innocent, or cute things she does. And lastly, I think people assume she is a superior snob (once again, that is completely the fault of the writers and staff who chose her 4Kids voice). They picked a high British voice, which if I could change, I might have her sound more Australian to tone down the "snob-like" quality of her voice. Or, keep the British voice, but change her dialogue to make it flow more with the rest of the Winx Club girls. Okay, I'm done bashing my favorite character =P. QUOTE (Boo @ Apr 17 2008, 06:43 PM) I actually like her voice in the 4kids version; it seems to fit well. I do agree about the showing up the boys. It's just too much really... ok, we get that she's a tomboy and all, we don't need to be constantly reminded. I would like her a lot more if she was still independent. I thought it was really neat that they made an independent character and didn't just bring her in as a newbie and stick her with a guy to make a pretty couple. It was so much more interesting to have a single character, since all of the rest of the girls were dating. But alas, they bring Nabu/Ophir, and Layla ends up with a guy. Oh how great.  I think I'm the only one who doesn't like her voice...or it could be that I associate her voice with her rudeness? Possibly... But I agree, she would have been better off being independent, if only she could have become more friendly and clashed less with the boys. I don't even know what the point of Nabu is, since we've barely seen him and is almost non-existent in the movie. If only we could help direct the story...blah.

Haha, personally I find Helia suits Flora great, just the writers screwed him up. (But then again aren't they to blame for everything?) He's romantic, sensitive and isn't so typical like the others; I was caught off guard though when he let the dragon go just to save Flora only. Then ran off. He could've at least ran off to make another dramatic enterance or something. Jeez.
I would never get rid of Helia, mainly for the fact he's the one that looks the best, next to Brandon.
I don't think I'd throw out a fairy...Aisha's apparently a popular one in this thread, but I don't even know why I favor her somehow. I forgot the reason, but she can stay I think. I don't think much about sports and her "feminist" attitude (I haaaaate those) but being independent would definitely add some variety. But it's not like she has a choice to have Nabu anyway...besides I like him, I find him pretty humorous and makes for a pretty good fiancee.
The hero I'd throw out...definitely <i>Sky.</i> Ehck. I don't like his design and I can't stand scenes with him in it. He's not bad, but he needs a frickin' haircut. I don't care how he was designed, he is not a pretty boy. Besides, for some reason, I can see Bloom easily with another guy. Probably a guy who's more mature and has it together. Then again, I don't really like Blond boys to begin with, I feel like I'm being biased anyway I have to go with the 4kids adaptations. He might not be so bad and Aisha might be worse.
Between Icy and Stormy, I don't know which one I'd love to kick out more. But after seeing the RAI dub, I found Icy's voice to be a bit refreshing than her "evil-doom-sounding" voice of her 4kids translation. It sounds pretty young and innocent strangely enough. That being said, I think I'd choose Stormy to toss out; I can't stand her attitude. Gets wayyy too mad wayyy too easily and that is one thing that has always been my pet peeve with people; real or fictional. It just doesn't make much sense at all. She needs to be smacked, I'm sorry.
Lastly, I'd get rid of the Pixie Zing. Sure, she has that cosplay charm, but I didn't find her all that cute of a character. Well, it's either her or Libby really, but I think I just don't like Libby's design.

I think that if I could kick her out with no series reprocusions, I'd kick out Bloom. I get tired of Bloom always being the "it" factor (but that's what WinX is kind of about isn't it?) Following her, it would be Aisha/Layla. Yeah, I just... never liked her. Could never get rid of Stella- she's my favorite WinX girl.
Witches? Darcy. I love the trix as a whole group, but Darcy has just never add any flair for me. Icy is my favorite character in the series, so I could never get rid of her.
Specialists... Sky, no questions. Then Nabu. I love Helia. He's my favorite specialists. The fact he saved Flora and not the other girls gave him a bit of an extra quality for me. He was a pre-packaged hero like the others.
As for the pixies, I don't really like any of them except Amore and Tune.
Hmm, and for Villains, let's get rid of Valtor. I just never could get used to him in season 3.
Teachers, I couldn't care less. I have favorites, but I don't hate anyone. I think my favorites would be Palladium and Griffin, though. I'd kick Faragonda out if I had to get rid of one, but I'd prefer not to.
