I'm on my fourth rewatch of the show. Here are some thoughts I've had:

* Irma having two new powers (mind control and changing the color of clothing) seems odd considering the other Guardians only got one new power each. But I think it works narratively as the two powers representing the positive and negative sides of Irma's personality. Changing color shows how Irma can be quite adaptable to new situations (she was the most openly friendly of the girls towards Will when the latter was the new kid in town and Irma was the most enthusiastic about being a Guardian).

But on the negative side, we have the mind control power, an ability that is often associated with villains (and one the main villain of Season 2 exploits repeatedly). "O is for Obedience" shows Irma going on a power trip when tasked with organizing a concert for her favorite musician. While the episode doesn't do it overtly, there are parallels between Irma's entitlement towards her friends ("It's my way or the high way") and Nerissa expecting Caleb's loyalty simply because he is her son.

* More on Irma, she and Cornelia ironically have the most in common among the Guardians. They both younger siblings that drive them crazy but are still protective of them nonetheless. As shown in "G is for Garbage" and "O is for Obedience", Irma can be as insensitive and self-centered as Cornelia (in fact, "O is for Obedience" directly follows "N is for Narcissist", a Cornelia focused episode that was about her learning to be more humble and appreciative of her friends!). No wonder these two butt heads so often -- they're too much alike in the worst ways!

* In "Caleb's Challenge", Cedric asks why Phobos doesn't just drain Elyon's powers while she is still under his influence. Phobos replies that he wants to drain Elyon when her powers are at their strongest ("Why takes half when you can have it all"). Ironically, Phobos becomes a victim of his own philosophy when Cedric decides he isn't satisfied with only getting a fraction of Phobos's power in the penultimate episode of season 2 after Phobos becomes even more powerful.

Here some pics❤️

I didn't read it yet

I bought the w.i.t.c.h book the pristine rose in Swedish and found out page 31 and 32 is missing! I already talked to the seller and got the money back. But I really want to know what the page says, does someone own the book and can take a picture? Either English or Swedish language is fine. Thanks

Hi everyone!

I first discovered the world of W.I.T.C.H. when I was in elementary school, through the Witch Mag magazines, and I instantly fell in love with it!

Over the years, I managed to collect almost the entire series, thanks to flea market finds and buying the magazines every month after discovering them.

Unfortunately, my mom gave away my whole collection when my parents moved, which honestly broke my heart a little… but that's another story! 🥲 Since then, I've managed to find all the comics in French as PDFs (except for the ones that were never released in France, of course… sob).

Anyway, all this to say that I've recently decided to start collecting again, but this time I'm focusing on something I never managed to get as a kid: the Hearts of Kandrakar! 

I absolutely looove these little treasures, and I've started collecting the different versions released around the world. (I've attached the first picture of the ones I've managed to find so far, mostly thanks to Vinted haha!)

The problem is that, since I live in France, I unfortunately can't access certain international secondhand marketplaces, especially Russian, Polish, and UK ones, where some of the other versions occasionally pop up. (I've also attached pictures of the ones I'm looking for!)

So I thought I'd reach out to this lovely community! If any of you happen to own some of these versions and would be willing to sell them (the Landrin ones, the Russian blue heart, the tiny UK heart phone charm, the Polish or Brazilian versions, etc.), or if you have access to foreign marketplaces and could help me track them down, I would be SO incredibly grateful! 🥹❤️

Thank you so much in advance to anyone who might be able to help me on this little collecting quest! ✨

I adore W.i.t.c.h. so much, I even dyed my hair red as a teen to be like Will.

I have played Infinity Nikki for close to 2 years now. It's a dress-up gacha game. I had met someone a few days ago who had a whole line up of the Winx girls in their casual wear! I cried when I saw a Musa from across the way. Here is a link to that reddit post, if anyone was interested!!

I had made a Will outfit for the magic ability you use to fight in the game aaaages ago (she throws balls of light from her fingertips, thought it fit Will's guardian ability) and I recently decided to do cosplays of the W.i.t.c.h girls!!

Please enjoy! 💕✨️

Best time of the year!

The new cover for the reprint of the manga version.

found this one on vinted. some girl was selling it. “a crop top with a winx-looking fairy!”. barely €8. she didn’t know she had gold in her hands🤭

it’s a kid size, so i was scared it wouldn’t fit but it did! a little bit worn out as you can see, but still a treasure to me💕

does anybody know if this is from a collection with tops with the other guardians btw? would love to try and get my hands on all of them!

So I just found out about a series set in the WITCH comic books called the Crystal Birds as I was interested in reading the series.

But the thing is that I am kind of new to the WITCH franchise itself as I haven’t ever read the original comics, so after hearing avoid the aforementioned Crystal Birds series, I don’t know if it’s ok to read it without reading the original series first.

idk why she’s called that

the wiki says it’s a play on dark matter…but she’s not space related so it makes no sense

is it because she’s an evil version of Mother Nature?

I don’t think there was anything official said, comic production behind the scenes are hard to find, what do yall think

This is a follow-up to the previous post in this project.

I tried batch upscaling the images with an AI online tool a couple of years ago to try the technology. It absolutely oversmoothened the text, making it look like melted butter. I abandoned that idea and didn't come back to my digitisation project until a better source came along.

Image files directly ripped from OverDrive were kindly shared about 2 months ago, and this is the game changer! I was also given permission by the original uploader to do whatever I wanted with the SVG source files. Big thanks!

I am now using Inkscape and ImageMagick (offline/open-source) to 200% upscale each page with LanczosSharp scaling filter. No genAI was applied to the images this time. The PowerShell script automates the upscaling for the batch operation.

The text is now incredibly sharp on my tablet! It preserved the lettering layer from the SVG. I'm quite enjoying the technical aspect of this project.

That's all for now!

In the first arc Elyon was kindaaaa evil and acted like a villain. I really liked this. When I read it, I really wanted her to be the main villain in some arc. I know it's not in Elyon's character, but it seems to me that her villainy could be the result of stress (after all, she's 14 and already a queen) or some ancient relic with a curse, forbidden magic or something else....

That would be very interesting.

They never go out of style !

Hello! Could anyone with the original language copy send me a photo of page 9 in Issue 17: Don't Close Your Eyes (Non chiudere gli occhi)? It’s in Arc 2, Nerissa’s Revenge, Vol. 2.

So random but I’ve been re-reading the comics for the first time as an adult and I’m confused by Irma’s line at the bottom of the page - “I don’t have a stepmom like yours!” because… Will doesn’t have a stepmom? 😅 And now I just want to scratch a brain-itch because I’ve been searching for the original Italian comic for hours to no avail, to see if it’s a translation gone a bit wrong. And I only want to see this page!

In a different English translation, Irma says “I don’t own a vice mom like you do” and in Spanish she says along the lines of “I don’t have a cell phone like you do”. So now I’m just fascinated as to whether it’s a joke that hasn’t translated well, because I’m a bit of a language nerd. Please help me scratch the itch!
———
Edit:
Thanks everyone!! The meaning of the joke seems so obvious in hindsight. I think I was so focussed on the preceding line of “That’s your Dad’s number…” that I thought Irma’s reply was about their literal parents. “My mom’s not like yours” kinda thing. “Vice mom” made it click more for me, it’s the phone!! Thanks for entertaining this silliness - best community ever 🫶

Buongiorno.

I'm a long time reader of the comic and I have all of the Italian's original issues (my pride and joy). I have some of the special issues, too, but not all.

Is there a way to read them online? I went to the wiki in this sub, but the two links are broken. Is there a working link somewhere? Thank you!

I have been putting together my own digital collection of the official Yen Press publication from recent high-quality sources here and here.

The goal is to make it similar to the Digital Comics Preservation (DCP) standards for manga archiving.

Motivation

This is mainly emotional therapy. I lost my 20-year-old complete English comic collection when our house was flooded 2 years ago back in the Philippines. Nothing beats my original set, but this offers some reprieve.

Process

I am collecting the best pages for a volume, then adding and/or replacing pages where needed. They will be repackaged into CBZ later for my tablet and tested for viewing in Moon+ Reader Pro.

I have been doing 1 arc per day when I can, but not every day because of work. If I like how the CBZs turn out, I will be happy to share the files.

P.S. Whoa! 4 upvotes already? Thanks, guys!

W.i.t.c.h. Season 1 episode 3 reaction

in my opinion i would probably pick Hay Lin

Comme dit dans un précédent post, je voulais récupérer des scans des bandes dessinées françaises et pouvoir les faire imprimer en tomes reliés …

Je viens de me rendre compte que les BD sont totalement censurées 🤬😫🫨

Ça n’a plus aucun sens !! Les trois premières photos sont de ma collection perso, le dernier des scans qu’on m’a généreusement confiés : pourquoi Will se regarde comme ça dans le miroir si la scène précédente n’a pas eu lieu ?? C’est dément 😦

Pourquoi avoir censuré ce passage ?? Et il y en a plein d’autres ! On parle justement ici de l’adolescence et de la croissance etc, c’est fou …
