Winx Club

This is the first show Gracix dubbed ! Winx Club Season 4 this is it's history and intro .

Winx Club is a 2004 Italian animated television series, created by Iginio Straffi and produced by Rainbow S.p.A.. The series is aimed toward children between the ages of five and twelve[1] and has spawned an international franchise of toys, books, clothing, DVDs, as well as a CGI feature film.

Apart from the English language version done by Cinélume in Canada, 4Kids Entertainment in the United States made an alternative version by changing dialogues, music and alternating some of visuals and situations.

We only dubbed season 4 :

The fourth season made its debut in Italy on April 15, 2009. The Winx come to Earth to find the last fairy and to make humans believe in magic so that they can earn their Believix. The Believix is the new transformation in season 4, where their wings are more powerful and more useful. They have three additional wings, as well: Speedix (speed enhancement), Zoomix (teletransportation), and Tracix (visual aids). When a fairy earns her Believix, she gains the ability to make someone believe in magic. For the Winx group, it didn't work in the beginning, but it did make people overcome their weaknesses. The villans in this season are the "Wizards of the Black Circle" (The Fairy Hunters). They stole the magic from Earth, making the denizens disrespect it. The Wizards need Roxy, the last fairy on Earth, to gain full power. But, from sometime in the season onwards, their target switches to the White Circle, a magical ring in which the fairies from Earth were trapped. Roxy at first didn't believe in fairies until the Winx Club came and helped her believe and gain her Believix as well. There are two other new transformations in season four. First, there is Sophix. It's a power up from Believix, like the Charmix from season two. Sophix has the power to help the environment and this transformation was given to them by The Eternal Fairies. Then there is Lovix, it's another power up from Believix and it is used for colder climate.

Sky: The prince of Eraklyon, he feels stifled by his position. He has medium blonde hair and is the king as of Secret of the lost kingdom. Because he loves Bloom, he refuses to marry Diaspro, the girl of his parents' choice. Also, at the start of season one, Sky does not use his real name, because he wanted to see what it was like to be a normal guy as well as divert any threats on his life from Yoshinoya, so he and Brandon switch.He is also Brandons best friend.

He however regains confidence when the team rescued Tecna. He is an expert pilot and mechanic. His weapon of choice is plasma gun but occasionally picks up a yellow rapier phantoblade. He is shown to have less fighting skills but has the most intellect, which proves very useful to the team. Timmy is best friends with Helia.

Riven: A lone wolf, very competitive and good at sports. He has short spiked magenta colored hair. His mother left him in his young age and so he is wary of women in general. He is Musa's boyfriend. Sometimes, he might overreact with Musa because he's jealous when Musa became friends with another boy.

Luckily he escaped and joined the good guys. His weapon of choice is either a reddish purple saber or meteor hammer. Riven is best friends with Nabu.

Helia: An artistic student, he is a great pilot and a pacifist. His uncle, Saladin, is the Headmaster of Red Fountain. He has long blue-black hair tied into a loose ponytail in season 2 and 3 but cuts it to sport spiky fringes in season 4. He is also very romantic and shy about directly speaking about his feelings. He is very good at using his laser string glove (a fictional weapon in the show) and tries to help everyone with it. He is Flora's boyfriend. He was a top student in Red Fountain in his first year until he decided to quit and study art at another school. He came back for his second year at Red Fountain and joined Sky's squad. Helia is the oldest of all the boys because he would have been in his third year at the start of season one had he not dropped out to go to art school. Both Helia and Flora love nature and can't bare to see if someone harms it. Helia is best friends with Timmy.

Nabu: A man of nobility born of Andros/Tides, the same planet where Layla is from. He is engaged to Layla and secretly left his home planet under the identity of 'Ophir' to discover who this his would-be wife was and find out what she was truly like. Instead, the Winx and the Specialists mistake him as a spy of Valtor. He however saves the team on multiple occasions and helped defeat Valtor. He gained Layla's trust and love. He also joined the group on Earth in season 4. Nabu is also a wizard, shown using magic unlike other boys. He also uses a magic shaft as a weapon. Nabu has very long dark reddish brown hair, often braided or tied. Nabu is best friends with Riven. In Episode 24 of Season 4, Nabu dies (as a sacrifice).

Pets :

Artu is Roxy's pet dog. He appears in the fourth season. Ivan Andreani voices Artu in the Italian version. Artu has brown fur and pitch-black eyes. Like Kiko, he displays an unusually high amount of intelligence for a dog, but only Roxy notices this.

Kiko is Bloom's pet rabbit. He has light-blue fur with white splashes. He displays an unusually high amount of intelligence for a rabbit, but no one seems to notice. Kiko is suspected through most of the series to have magic powers (he follows Bloom and Stella through an invisible wall that keeps Bloom's non-magical parents out of Magix and magically flies himself and Pepe the duck out of harms way during the battle at the end of season one), which are finally revealed late into the second season. Pete Zarustica voices Kiko in the 4Kids version and unknown in the original version.[citation needed]

The New Pets are new characters consisting of Belle (Bloom's pet lamb), Ginger (Stella's pet puppy), Cocoa (Flora's pet cat), Pepe (Musa's pet bear), Chicko (Tecna's pet chick) and Milly (Layla's pet bunny). More magic pets appear in the fourth season and reside in the shop known as Love and Pet.

The fairy hunters :

The Fairy Hunters (Cacciatori Di Fate in the original version, better known as Wizards of the Black Ring or Wizards of the Black Circle) are the four main villains—Ogron, Gantlos, Duman, and Anagan—in the fourth season. At some point, they had developed a way to resist fairy magic, which allowed them to captured the fairies of Earth, and steal all of the magic from the planet. Throughout the first half of the season, they battle the Winx, and almost every time the fairies barely make it out alive. However, as time went on the Winx became more accustomed to fighting them, and eventually were able to give them a real fight. They are defeated in the middle of the season by Bloom, with help from Roxy, who used her Believix powers to convince all of the Humans in the area to believe that she is a Fairy. This rendered the Wizard's abilities useless, and made them vulnerable to Bloom's attack.

As of late, however, it is revealed that they are still alive, but their powers are weaker than before and they must hide in the sewers.

While all four Hunters seem to share certain powers, like opening a Dark Gate to capture fairies and cast dark enchantments, they also have individual powers. Ogron can absorb and deflect magic, Duman is a shape-shifter, Anagan possesses super speed and Gantlos can create shock waves.

Patrizio Prata as Ogron, Christian Iansante as Gantlos, Davide Lepore as Duman and Andrea Lavagnino as Anagan play The Fairy Hunters in the original version. and The Fairy Hunters reassembles The Delinquent Road Hazards from Cars.

Other Characters :

Andy is Bloom's ex-boyfriend from high school. He lives on earth and is in a band consisting of him and two other friends. He still seems to have feelings for Bloom. Apparently, he used glasses for he mentioned he is now using contact lens. He and his friends were threats to the Specialists in the beginning of the fourth season (mostly towards Riven who thought Andy and Musa were having an affair because she sang with him; and Sky, who believes Bloom still has feelings for him.) Strangely in Season 2, Bloom said, "I'm kind of new to the whole dating thing," meaning that she has never had a boyfriend prior to Sky. But this can be misinterpreted because after all, they did break up.

Diana is the ancestor fairy of nature. She is a strong fairy who wanted revenge on the humans, which she got by turning all of Gardenia into a jungle trapping the winx club and kidnapping their boyfriends, except Nabu. Diana reassembles Angie from Need for Speed: Carbon.
