## Synopsis

World of Winx (2016-2017) is an Italian animated fantasy series created by Iginio Straffi for Netflix. The show follows the Winx, a group of magical fairy friends who travel across the globe in search of gifted young people for their talent agency, WOW. Their adventures are propelled by a mysterious talent thief who threatens to kidnap the very performers the heroines are trying to recruit, so each episode mixes location-hopping discovery with a growing sense of pursuit. Voice cast includes Letizia Ciampa as Bloom, Perla Liberatori as Stella, Ilaria Latini as Flora, Domitilla D'Amico as Tecna and Laura Lenghi as Aisha. Across two seasons of twenty-six episodes, the series keeps a bright, cheerful register with friendship at its core, mixing whimsical magic with light peril and an upbeat sense of wonder. Its episodic structure, set in a colourful present-day world of travel and performance, suits young viewers who enjoy fairy tales, music and adventure. Fans of Winx Club, Totally Spies! and Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir will find the same cheerful heroine energy and globe-trotting fun.
