Fate: A Winx SagaThe second season is more serious and mature version of the magical girl group. The first season premiered in January 2021, and while it didn’t capture the same camaraderie among the main characters that the original show did, it did showcase a compelling, magical world with a darker storyline about the generational trauma of war.
