Review: Season 5, Episode 10: Magix Christmas

So this week we got the Christmas episode! It's about time. My reviews a day late, but I mean, who's even keeping track right now.

Also also! I added a poll to the side of the blog, be sure to vote and check it out. Funny enough it looks like News is in the lead. Kinda odd since it's kinda once in a blue moon I post news. Oh well, maybe I'll try doing it more often.

But back to the review!

So we start off with Bloom wrapping presents and wearing the cutest Christmas outfit I have ever seen. Like, they didn't overdo it and make it a Santa dress, it's actually realistic and adorable aww I want a doll of it!! 

So anyway the other girls walk in and are like, "Oh yeah, what's Christmas again?" which makes a lot of sense because my guess Bloom just told them in passing one day, since I am positive the Christian religion is not a thing in Magix.

So Bloom tries explaining and they're just like, "Ooh presents here take a present Musa, Tecna, Flora." But then Bloom explains it's not about the presents and they're just like, "Aww, dang it."

I want to make this my icon, purely for giggles.
Then Stella has this moment where I want to just want to leave the room. What happened to my old, bratty Stella. this is just stereotypical prissy girl Stella get out.

So we head outside since Bloom is leaving to spend Christmas with her parents and the specialists arrive, and SKY SAID SOMETHING BUT I DONT REMEMBER WHAT, BUT IT WAS THE MOST PAINFUL SOUNDING THING I HAD EVER HEARD (and then he literally said nothing else the entire episode)

But anyway the Trix who I guess are really just as stupid as rocks this season overhear them talking about Christmas magic and think that the Winx are going to gain a new power. So they come to Alfea and freeze it over using these giant ice dragons that look like they just came out of Rune Factory.

Bloom gets sad since she can't go to her parents house now and celebrate Christmas so she just kinda sulkily goes back to her room. The Trix meanwhile are invisible hanging out inside Alfea and are trying to get Bloom alone, but when they're about to Faragonda comes and sees her and tells her that there are dark beings somewhere in the school. (no, really?)

The rest of the Winx Club experience cultural differences as they attempt to study Christmas so they can throw the best Christmas party ever for Bloom. They create the largest gingerbread house I have ever seen that it looks like you could walk in, the droopiest, largest leafless tree I have ever seen (even though FLORA was in charge of that), a literal Christmas cheer with Tecna, Aisha, and Musa, and Stella walking around saying "Ho ho ho ho." In the saddest beard ever and a big red coat.

Bloom basically looks so sad when she sees it but basically accepts it and is like "aww thanks guys I love it!"

Then the Trix get angry that Bloom is still enjoying Christmas and they turn visible and start attacking them. Then it ends as you'd expect-- the Winx beat the Trix, the Trix run off.

Then Faragonda comes up and says that since Bloom can't go to her parents' house anymore she can bring her parents and the neighborhood children over to Alfea. I don't know why she couldn't go to her parents house, but apparently she couldn't.

Then we pretend to be Peter Pan and fly the children around in our Santa hats. And basically that's the end of the episode.

I kinda wrote a snarky review but I really did like this episode, it was super cute. It's about time we got another holiday episode. 

Anyway, thanks for reading!

PS: Who thinks I should edit Santa hats onto my banner? :P
