Review: Season 5: Episode 13, Sirenix *SPOILERS*

So this episode was pretty interesting. It's about time we got something different then the repetitive 'let's find a jewel' game.

So basically we start off with-- a new theme song! Is it just like a preview for this episode? Because it's not in sync with the music like all previous theme songs have been and it seems to only contain clips from this episode. Oh well-- it's cute, though.

Anyway, after that we see (not in exact order, I don't remember exact order) Daphne being tortured even more. That seems to be a recurring thing. It's getting kinda old. I'm tired of seeing her pain. But she still thinks her mother and father are stuck as ice statues and she finally spills about Sirenix, which is apparently hanging out in Lake Roccaluce (OH MY GOD HOW DO YOU SPELL THAT), or at least the source of Sirenix is.

Meanwhile the Winx girls are hanging out in the simulator trying to connect with the ocean to get Sirenix but Bloom can't connect. Dear Bloom, I love you, but your character is becoming boring at this point and giving you so much screentime in a season with little to no character development is not helping my opinion of it. So basically we leave and go talk to our Sirenix book.
 
I guess the Winx girls solved all those riddles for nothing because Tritannus proceeds to go down to the lake and suck some Sirenix out. Then he creates an oil monster and starts draining the lake, but the selkies come out of nowhere with this seventh selkie that's for lake Roccaluce and attack him. Together they're stronger, but still not strong enough for this over-powered angsty teenage merboy.

So the Winx girls are trying to figure out where Sirenix is, and the book just says like, 'look inside yourself' and then quite literally disappears into thin air.

After tons of trouble Bloom figures out that it's Lake Roccaluce and goes there. We arrive and see Tritannus wreckage and are like "whoa no tritannus got here." Then we see his oil monster and Musa, Flora, and Tecna agree to fight it while we look for Tritannus and the selkies. (wow, did they seriously just shove those three off like that, the unimportant ones of the season seriously??)

We find them and fight for a few minutes but then Tritannus blasts the selkies off and Stella runs after them. That leaves Bloom and Aisha as the only ones fighting him. Aisha eventually ties him up and Bloom hits him a couple times and so now we have him tied in a merman lump on the ground, but he mentions how the lake is draining and Bloom demands to know where Daphne is but there's no time to question him and save the lake so they end up letting him go to save the lake. (JEEZ BLOOM, WHATS MORE IMPORTANT AT THIS POINT ONE LAKE OR THE INFINITE OCEAN.)

So Tritannus breaks the Morphix holding him back and swims away. Meanwhile the Winx girls have all croweded around the source of Sirenix and are holding hands and Bloom finally is connected with the ocean, so the lake refills (yeah, I honestly don't understand how that works either) and their Sirenix helpers come out (hey it's the first time we get to see Aisha's) and use their magic to make one big Sirenix helper.

At the same time this is happening Tritannus rips Daphne's Sirenix straight out of her body and gives it to the Trix, who then obtain their Sirenix.

So the big Sirenix helper with the Winx opens the portal to the infinite ocean saying they can go in now and they go in and then they transform into Sirenix. Have I mentioned I love Sirenix. I know a lot of people don't but I do.

So we get in the infinite ocean and our hair changes color

our hair changes color

NOT EVEN FOR A REASON
IT JUST DOES
HELP ME
I'M DYING
WHY DID THIS HAPPEN

AND WHY IS STELLA'S SUCH A HIDEOUS GREEN COLOR
WHY DIDN'T WE GET AN EXPLANATION
WHY ARE THEY SUCH UGLY COLORS

now that I've had a moment to process that.

So now we're in the infinite ocean and we kinda look around for a moment until the Queen Sirenix helper tells us that darkness has entered the ocean as well and Bloom has this way too serious for her hair moment where she's like "Tritannus, GRR"

So basically after that Tritannus comes into the ocean and turns a rock into an oily rock. And that's the end of the episode.

EXCEPT, earlier in it they mentioned that each Winx girl gets a wish with their Sirenix... if we use this to solve all our problems like Stella's parents and Musa's mother I will just scream IT CANT BE THAT EASY, I KNOW THINGS ARE EASY THIS SEASON BUT NO

THE ONLY WISHES I WILL ACCEPT ARE AISHA FOR NABU AND BLOOM FOR DAPHNE

NO ONE ELSE

I hope the other wishes get used like in battle like someone gets super injured and so another has to use their wish to save them and so on. Because we cannot just solve all our problems like that no.

Overall I liked this episode but I wanted to scream twice. The next episode preview we're back on Earth and we see 2D Sirenix, which looks surprisingly really cool.

Thanks for reading! Feel free to share your opinions on the episode in the comments.

Sky's New Haircut

My my, looks like the King of Eraklyon got a brand new haircut!
Shame we can only see it from the back, but it's all that was posted today on Winx Club's Season 5 section of their website.

Personally, I think it's pretty nice. It's more fitting for today's styles, and it'll make him more popular with little girls and that audience. 

Though I must say, I will definitely miss his old haircut. It was different, do you know what I mean? It wasn't your average "cute boy" haircut from most tv boys. It was kind of different, while still being good looking.

Old haircut aside, this one is pretty cute and I definitely still like it. Season 5 seems to be changing up the hairstyles quite a bit.
I mean, until now Flora never wore a ponytail in the show. Musa's hairstyle is really different, Stella got some cute sidebangs, and Bloom finally grew out her bangs. (Though I think I may like her bangs better, oh well. They wouldn't have looked good with this new outfit anyway. I do hope she gets them back eventually, though!) 

Anyway, so Season 5 is in just a few days, it's this Sunday! How hyped up are you guys?! This picture is only making it more exciting, haha. 

Be sure to check out both BelieveInWinx's article and Magix Journey's article on these new screenshots! They both reported it super quick before me. ;)

And don't forget to help get Winx Club trending on Twitter this Sunday, the day of the premiere!
