As an adaptation, this is bad. If this was called something else, it would've been okay. Let's start off with the good: 1. The storyline is pretty decent
2. The CGI is neat
3. The aesthetic of the show is also neat 4. There are some good

2. The CGI is neat
3. The aesthetic of the show is also neat
4. There are some good songs used in this show
Yeah that's all I can think of on the top of my head. Now let's get to the bad:
1. I will never forgive them for whitewashing Musa and "Flora" (technically Flora's cousin, Terra. But still, why is she white???)
2. Why isn't there any Tecna? She's literally the best fairy along with Musa. If they decide to make a second season, let's hope that they add her along with Roxy.
3. There are some cringey dialogue that just wasn't needed and that could be seen as politically loaded. Those never age well.
4. This live action adaptation and the original show are so different. Literally the only things that they have in common are the character names and the show name. 5. The cast lacks character growth trough out the show.
6. There are other things that bother me about this show but I can't really pinpoint them so yeah.
With that being said, I am giving this show a 4.5/10. This has what I call the Riverdale syndrome, we wanna make a story but have no fate what so ever in it, so let's shoehorn another IP in there to make it appealing and it should work. Like I said, bad for an adaptation, okay if it was called something else.

An interesting story about magic and surreal worlds, Abigail Cowen who portrays Bloom was the most annoying character and actress in the series, should recast her, the other supporting cast had great chemistry and atmosphere and held theAn interesting story about magic and surreal worlds, Abigail Cowen who portrays Bloom was the most annoying character and actress in the series, should recast her, the other supporting cast had great chemistry and atmosphere and held the series together.

Fate the Winx Saga has a good enough story. the acting is decent. But it is without a doubt a Harry Potter/Twilight wannabe. Yes, it is a decent show, but it is not a great show. It passes the time till the next fantastic beasts movie.
