So the description of the episode stated that Daphne's parents plan a welcome home party for her but the Trix send the beast of the depths to ruin it.
So based on that I was expecting some big party ruined by a monster like the episode Party Crasher episode eight of season 2. It was similar to it but no buildings were damaged in this one.Plus season six future looks bright even though this episode didn't reveal anything about the plot. Also the theme song for this brand new season is short and sweet since it doesn't involve the 3D version of them.
It was nice to see that the Winx are very welcoming towards Daphne and they accept her. I loved it when the Winx were helping Daphne get ready for the party just liked they helped Bloom for Herkaylon's ball in season 3. When the ball begins the girls are in their flower ballgowns and then we see Daphne in hers which is by far the prettiest flower ballgown yet in my opinion. Once the beast attacks we see the Trix still in their dark sirenix and as each Winx uses her spell to attack each one fails in destroying the beast. After everyone is inside the Winx call on their guardians of Sirenix to help them restore Daphne's powers. In a way it was so cliche, actually it was cliche.
We found out Daphne is the only one who could control the beast from the depths. She was going to put her self in harms way to protect everyone else, it was sweet but it seemed more of an enchantix plot than a way of getting back her sirenix. The Winx come to help her and we see Daphne's sirenix which minus the hair is the prettiest one. So if each girl got to keep their hairstyle and got a sirenix similar to Daphne's I would probably like Sirenix a lot more than the rest of the transformations, that's just my opinion though. So the episode ended with another song, last time I checked this was Winx Club not High School Musical where everyone breaks out into song.
Overall the episode was cute. It wasn't bad, it wasn't fabulous, it was mediocre in my opinion. I will say the first episode of season 6 was better than any episode in season 5 so I am hopeful, but I won't set my hopes too high so they don't get crushed. Until the next episode.
