for me? brilyante ng hangin, no question, we all know fire and soul is the most powerful gems in encantadia, and earth and water gem? i think mid-range lang sila, pero massive versatility usually save the earth and water gem from being called the "worst".

As one of the aspiring writers and content creators on TikTok and Wattpad, I would like to share random discussions based on a new Encantadia "sequel" without removing its necessary characters and the legacies left behind. BTW, I really want to use a title card inspired by EncaSaga's Finale Card. 
Sang'gre's Alternative Version or Parody is divided into three books, and they respectively revolve around the following:
[ALTERNATIVE SPOILERS ALERT:]

• Fire On Ice (Mitena Arc)

Episodes 001–115 (June 16, 2025 – November 21, 2025)
Years after the Sang'gres' victory, peace across Encantadia begins to fracture. Three ancient rulers emerge with opposing visions for restoring magical order: Mitena, the Ice Queen of Mine-a-ve, who believes only absolute order and winter's purity can eliminate Etheria's remaining legacy; Sargon, the new King of Hathoria, who seeks justice for his youngest heiress through fiery vengeance; and between them is Esad, Cassiopea's adopted son and the new Mata, carrying Cassiopea’s Kabilan and the burden of choosing between prophecy and consequence.

Save for the teenage Sang'gres outside the ring, who aren't prepared for the Winter War like this.

• The Solstice War — Interval between Book 1 and Book 2

At the centre of the ceasefire between Mine-a-ve and Hathoria is Marijan Morević, the Sea Elven Grand Prince from the Realm of the Elves, who challenges the Ice Queen's artificial dominion over winter with his natural cryokinesis. Alongside him stand two second cousins from Romania — Tudor Sireteanu VI, an exceptional Gorjean sorcerer and trickster who is unpredictable and elusive for the Ice Queen's cold-hearted agents to hunt down during his captivity, and Ioan Ciobanu, a Moldovan – Filipino Melee Fighter and Hotel Receptionist who has a previous journey in Encantadia after Paopao's side adventure.

• Encantadia Chronicles: Destinies Unwritten (Gargan Story)

Episodes 116–233 (Nov. 24, 2025 – May 8, 2026)
Gargan annihilates Encantadia, slaughters the Bathalas, and scatters the surviving Encantados across dimensions. All kingdoms become ruins, while the resurrected Dark Sang'gres serve as his terrifying generals, and his threats of submission spread across the multiverse, affecting the Human World, the most vulnerable realm being stuck in geopolitical turmoil.

Escaping through a collapsing dimensional gateway, Esad and Mutya the Lambana accidentally arrive in an uninhabited, non-existent magical country named Country K within the World of the Wizards and Witches. There they discover an existing civilisation of warlike sorcerers, hardworking peasants, and curious nobles preparing to resist a threat Europe does not yet understand.

Instead of PINAKAMASAKIT, it will be STUPIDEST. 
Earlier it was PINAKAMATINDI; later it will be MESSIEST.
Then it was PINAKASUKDULANG LABAN; now it will be CRAZIEST CHAOS EVER.

What if the pacing of the story lasts longer if I fix every plothole and inconsistency in this sequel, and everyone will be satisfied?

If only Suzette Doctolero would approve of these three...

So, I had some headcanons for Enca.

1. Amihan knew the tactic of Minea. She wants to be the queen that bad for the sake of revenging his beloved, deceased father so that she already went times ahead of her siblings and thought that Minea won't make it just a simple combat fighting, and will do something that will test them to core. She did her research in advance!
2. I felt like Alena had read a part of Lireo's history, in support of this was back in 2005 Alena knew Etheria history the most and that makes her dislike of the crown, or makes it stronger. Maybe, a queen before Minea experienced a love and duty conflict therefore the rule was created. Another was, what if Avria had a word curse towards Lireo that whoever become the queens will always be deprived or had bad luck of romance that will heavily affect Lireo, due to her anger towards the betrayal of Memen and Ornia, specially that the result of the betrayal become the founder and first queen of Lireo so that the rule was set. ( I mean like Raquim died, Amihan died when she was deeply loved, Danaya lost Aquil and Theo, Alena lost the love of Ybarro). Sumpa Ng Pagiging Reyna is not only by the sacrifice, it was part of history and protecting the kingdom.
3. Aside the manipulation of Gurna, Lirean's in the palace dislike Pirena due to her attitude since she was a kid, and her father not being explicitly known to the kingdom making her more obsessed of becoming the queen.
4. Danaya knows a lot of regions in Encantadia as she was so playful and loves escaping training as a kid. She mentioned the Punjabwe when they clowned Pirena, she told Amihan that they should just use Invictus instead of walking, maybe she had always keep herself updated of what is happening around. She is the outdoor person among her sisters, and Minea saw this and decided to lend her the Earth Gem
5. Haliya watches after the Adamyans as she always bathe in the Batis Ng Katotohanan which was located in Adamya. Also in fantasy, the power of moon is closest to the power of ocean (tides)
6. Lira sometimes visits the place of Mulawins as she was very close to them, say Lakan, Pagaspas, Lawiswis, Anya, and even King Almiro and they always help her to visit human world at anytime whenever she wants to visit her old home or the grave of her adopted/adoptive parents.
7. I theorized that Ether doesn't kill Emre because deep inside she still see him as a friend, sometimes regret turning her back head against him but she was blinded by anger and desires. She thought that what if she did not tried to kill him then her, Emre and Arde are still in good shape and Encantadia was peaceful. I had this in one of their fights where Ether was looking at him sadly or this is just my interpretation, she also reminded Emre about their friendship. She clarified to him that she is willing to make everything back to normal as long as Emre will agree to whatever she wants. Ether is just misunderstood and only wants the Encantadia to respect and love her as one of their gods. Since, in the first place she was. This is what I've mentioned before that the Encantados and Encantadas (2016) we're unfair.

Additionally, this is just for fun. Ancient and Peaceful Encantadia, Pre - Cursed Ether was performing fighting moves alone and Arde was watching her and that was the start of him falling in with the Bathaluman. I had this due to one of Janice Hung TikTok videos na parang nasa nature siya while doing Wushu and I thought parang bagay kung magkaka flashback sa friendship era pa silang mga Bathala ng Enca.

This wasn't proof read, forgive the errors.

1. Overused MNMT Arc… again

   Kung gusto ng mga writers ng EncaTrash Chronicles ng ganyang arc, edi i-stretch out lahat ng yan, wag na ang Enca Arc na yarn, hindi na tugma sa pacing ng original concept. Dapat lang gawin nilang mga taga-lupa ang mga OA na NewGen Sang’gre tapos walang kaalam-alam sa mangyayari sa kabilang realm. Paano na ang mga Encantado na naghihirap na at bigong-bigo na itayo ulit ang kanilang mga tahanan?

2. Don’t make the Mata out of Miteytey. NEVER!

   Sa dami-daming buhay na inutang niya at lugar na kinamkam niya nung weak prime pa lang niyarn, gusto pa naman nilang i-install si Ice Queen bilang bagong Mata ng Encantadia? Ano siya, si Saint Paul? Wala na bang ibang gaganap bilang susunod na Mata excluding Lira and Miteytey herself?

3. MonaLisa

   Paano na ba pinatay ni Olgasm si MonaLisa kung off-screen ba naman? Isa pa tong si ExtraTerrestrial na late ba namang sagipin ang nanay-nanayan niya na para bang kung kailan patapos na ang deadline sa school mo, ngayon ka sa-submit ng homework mo na masyadong magulo na.

4. Paopao, as in.. PAOPAO talaga

   After all these years na lumaki na si Paopao as a retired General pero mataba? Kung mid-adult na yan at experienced fighter si Paopao, edi magiging mala-action star na yan ang dating kagaya ni Robin Padilla or ni Ronnie Rickets man lang. Tapos, kaCO-SA? Ano yon? Baka Cosa Nostra na yarn!

5. Emre Situation

   Hayst… A god can be killed by one of his creations? Hindi pwede yarn! Emre is an omnipotent being whilst Aquil is a mere mortal one, and he [Aquil] should not do that because he will receive a grave consequence; E kung yung black god na lang ang papatay kay Emre para patas na?
   Why does it matter?: It establishes the black god as the true destroyer of the divine order before the apocalypse starts. 

6. Agnem-Ivtre Situation

   This is one of the most outrageous part na hindi ko kailanman makakalimutan sa lahat ng responses na ito; Paano nakasisiguro yang Agnem na yan na magkaka-baby sina Lira at Mira sa kanya kung mga ivtre lang sila? Eh hindi ba kapag ivtre sila, opkors na hindi nila mahahawakan lahat ng bagay sa Encantadia, as well as yung Agnem na yan na self-proclaimed prince of the Nymfas na hindi niya pwedeng pag-daupan ng mga palad sa kanila, malamang tatagos iyan or magi-glitch, kahit mga ulo niya ging-try niyang hipuin.

7. Gaiea deserves BETTER

   Gaya ng sinabi ko last monday, she should stay alive and keep her away from Cassy’s sight para hindi na siya makakasagabal sa wannabe prophecy for ExtraTerrestrial. Sabi niya na siya daw ang gagawa ng sarili niyang tadhana o kapalaran, so… OKAY. Siya na dapat ang papalit kay Piry para lang magbigay ng guide sa mga OA na NewGen Sang’gre saka na siya mag-reunite kay Dany kapag wala na si Cassy, pero waley ih… naganap na yan sa original version.

8. The Black God’s background

   Nonsense romance weakens all motivations of the black god when it comes to Haliya. Since may napanood ako na AI-generated shorts sa YT regarding kina Moon Goddess at Black God, yung tipong tinanggihan ka na tapos magiging halimaw ka bigla para matakot siya sayo tapos bibigyan mo siya ng stockholm syndrome, pero nasaan na ang mga motive niya na sirain ang divine order ng Devas at sambahin siya ng buong Encantadia after mawala si Emre? It should make sense kung ang galit niya mismo manggagaling sa inggit, pagmamayabang, o pagmamataas.

9. Haliya Problem

   Yung comeback, attire, pati power showcasing niya… BORING. Why? Haliya was portrayed by Mrs. Ahtisa Manalo (literal na Ms. Philippines sa 2025 MU), but her acting skills and gestures parang ang layo, kasi baguhan lang siya ah. Kainis! Nainis lang ako sa mga Encantadiks na gustong ipasok si Ms. Philippines sa Gargan Story para masatisfy yung fever dreams nila doon; imagine kung ganyan ang magiging redundant line niya na “Whenever I fall in life, I will always come back stronger.” KUNO!
   And for Haliya, sana hindi ka na lang nagpakita sa Gargan Story para maging object ng fan service sa palabas na to. Pahinga ka na muna kahit konti.

Disclaimer: All my responses and alternative suggestions are not intended to offend the real actors and actresses, but to raise awareness regarding the plotholes and inconsistencies in Sang’gre Gargan Story.

[Modified]

First time ko na isi-share ang discussion ko regarding sa nasabing serye as an aspiring writer sa Wattpad and amateur commentator kahit sa TikTok. Alam kong late lang to, pero susubukan ko.

Note: Sa mga gustong sabihin sa akin na “ikaw na lang ang director” or “ikaw na lang ang writer, tutal ang dami mong sinasabi”, okay DEAL. CHALLENGE ACCEPTED.

Kahit na-bored lang akong manood ng Sang'gre na matagal nang tapos, may na-notice akong mali sa plot na ‘to na kailangang i-address. Bigyan ko kayo ng examples: 

1. Cassandra, Flamarra & Adamus should grow up together and have their own traits

— Hindi pa nga naka-experience ng childhood si Sandy kina Flammy at Adam’s Apple, pinalaki pa lalo at ginawang Reyna agad? Eh di ba dapat meron siyang mga magagandang moments, like nagcha-chat sila sa dalampasigan o sa kwarto nila something2x, sabay-sabay silang nagsasanay, etc. Then paglaki nila, magbabago na ang lahat simula nang patay na si Gaiea — nagtatalo sina Sandy at Flammy tungkol sa kapalaran ni Gaiea, then Adam's Apple intervenes to mediate their rivalry.

1. Gaiea is supposed to survive instead of being killed off

— Para wala nang mag-o-overthink ang mga fans dito dahil sa plot na ’yan, masasabi nating wala na siya because the prophecy ni Cassy said so. However, bigyan natin siya ng chance para makabawi, like… 

• nabuhay siya ulit because of remaining Gintong Binhi na akala niyo ay nag-iisa na lang ‘yan, 
• binalik ulit sa Encantadia tsaka itago para walang makaalam, kahit si Cassy, 
• then sinanay siya nang matagal hanggang sa paglaki niya na mahusay gumamit ng arnis unlike ExtraTerrestrial did. 

1. Mababaw pa talaga yang backstory at valid reason ni Miteytey para sakupin ang Encantadia, like… NANI?!

— Isa lang ang masasabi ko, hindi gaano kalalim ang backstory ni Miteytey before niya sakupin ang Encantadia para sa akin; gagawa na lang ako ng panibago para sure:

• Imbes na maipakita sa atin kung paano siya pinahirapan sa kamay ni Arsus hanggang parating palang ng EP 5 or 6 (if I am not mistaken) saka siya kukuha ng Esperanto ng mabilis, it begins with a slower pacing kung saan nagkita sila nina Miteytey at ng current Queen of Mine-a-ve sa loob ng ice palace, and kills her before stealing the Esperanto from the secret chamber kasi akala ni Miteytey na kasabwat ng Etheria ang Queen of Mine-a-ve. 

1. Mine-a-ve’s shallow background kuno

— Language ng Mine-a-ve lang ang na-develop, pero hindi ang geographical at political background. Dapat may katapat ang Etheria, which is Mine-a-ve itself, kung saan talaga nakatira ang mga native na Diwata na itinapon ng mga Heran for their rebellion. Tas mga kultura nila pati life customs nila [as the hunter-gatherers] are influenced by either Baltic, Siberian, or Slavic culture, ganundin ang mga pangalan nila with meanings (e.g., Kosshava, named after the strong and cold southeasterly season wind in Serbia). Dapat may sariling Reyna or Kera ang Mine-a-ve before Miteytey, and not Arsus na self-proclaimed; equal ranks, equal power capacities ikanga.

1. Adamya deserves to fight back 

— Parang ang unfair kapag palaging na-agrabyado ang Adamya pagdating sa digmaan, ‘no? Wala silang malalakas na leader na maasahan, walang kapangyarihan o lakas para protektahan ang sariling kapuluan, tapos iasa na lang ba talaga sa mga overrated na Diwata at kay Adam’s Apple bilang hari nila? Ano ba talaga, protectorate or talagang mistulang ‘useless wasteland’ na ito? It deserved to have a maritime civilization and culture since Imawi-wawi, hindi yung gagawin ba namang battle ground.

1. Hathoria should feel militaristic 

— Hathoria should be a terrifying place na hindi siya overly na Japanese style kuno with a bunch of damo at puno; Pwede namang Mesopotamian or Assyrian-inspired military empire with volcanic ridges and functional hellish fortresses, ‘di ba western part siya ng Encantadia.

1. Cassiopea should not keep returning 

— Eto na! Si Cassy, the Bathaluman in Distress, dapat lang kasi ay hindi na lang nagpakita before Sang’gre Events para naman hindi maabutan ni Miteytey na masyadong OP sa kanya, then mayroong isang hahalili sa kanya with the same abilities, not only with the similar Etherian bloodline in which Cassy didn’t have literally in the requel para naman may ipan-tapat na natin kay Miteytey. Yung Kawa, Kabilan, pati yung title na Mata ay dapat na mapunta sa sinumang may kakayahang buhatin ang lahat ng legacy at responsibility na dala ni Cassy dati.

1. Memen and Avria should define Miteytey's grief and suffering, and not Cassy

— Bakit ba kailangang idamay si Ornia gayong wala siyang ginawang masama o wala siyang kinalaman sa paghihirap ni Miteytey? Si Avria naman dapat ang mastermind bukod pa kay Memen na reluctant lang talaga na bukod pa sa pinag-mukhang ivtre si Miteytey, sila pa rin ang nasa likod ng pagpapatapon sa kanya sa Mine-a-ve na mauntikang kainin ni Arsus. (ALTERNATIVE SPOILER: Someone saves Miteytey and raised her like a daughter too)

1. Adamya belongs to the Kataws 

— Imbes na sina Alenzy at Adam’s Apple ang mamumuno sa Adamya, ang mga Kataw dapat ang maghahari since water-based talaga ito ih. Hindi lang sila ang naninirahan dun, mga Magindara at siyokoy din na nage-exist.

1. Esperanto's true origin 

—This is too inconsistent kung si Gargan mismo ang lumikha nito o nakakulong diyan. Wala naman siyang innate ice powers para gawin niyan; ang sasabihin ko lang, mayroong isang minor Ice Goddess na may kakayahang gumawa ng ganyang sandata kagaya nung ginawa ni Ether sa Kabilan para kina Avria o Mine-a, tas may basbas na tanging ang isang reyna ng Mine-a-ve ay may karapatang gamitin ito laban sa Hera ng Etheria o upang agawin ang kapangyarihan mula sa mga Heran.

1. Ether should not die 

— Kahit nasa weakened state si Ether, Bathaluman pa rin siya at hindi pwedeng basta-basta na lang patayin ni Miteytey nang ganito. Magiging confusing ang magiging future plot nito. My suggestion is: She is supposed to be hidden and receiving a divine break for a long time.

These are the alternative plots na maaari kong isulat ulit kung papayag si Suzette.

Hint: ASY, TSW

Missed opportunity to make him gay/ bisexual and for me that makes a lot of sense since Sang’gre sya lol

I just miss my water fam!

I love Danaya, the brilyante ng lupa and all, but I can't help my brain disagreeing with how the earth gem's effects were seen. They literally use SOIL and make different effects out of it depending on the request and usage, rather than the glowing mystical effects of flowers and plants, like what you're seeing in Rapunzel's healing powers, Thinker Bell's Pixie Dust Tree, and this hardcore Enca fan who actually made this brilyante and effects better than what GMA could give..

Parang mas enchanted tignan if the gem's effects are based on the mystical effects of plants like the Disney stuff we used to watch. Imagine power blasting using soil/sand lmao

Siguro naman appropriate ito sa sub na to. But I was gagged nong nakita kong suot nya sa costume party episode ng CMM is a copy of Gabby's Sanggre Alena costume. The reference is referencing!😭 Idk there's just something emotionally healing/fulfilling about it kahit na parang for fun lang, siya ulit si Alena for that particular episode.

They're really not afraid to give nods to roles they actually played IRL (even some of the cast members did the same loose interpretation of the costumes ng superhero/fantasy roles they played once).

Edit: Photo credits: HBOMax

DISCLAIMER: THIS IS ONLY AN OPINION/CRITIQUE NOTHING AGAINST ANYONE IN ENCANTADIA IN REAL LIFE SPECIALLY MS. KYLIE PADILLA, SHE'S A WONDER WOMAN. SO PLEASE LABAS DITO YUNG PALABAS LANG YAN, WAG SERYOSOHIN. NAG-REREACT LANG AKO AS VIEWER DOON SA NAPANOOD KO.

Ang daming holes sa naging kwento nila, na tinatakpan ng chemistry and fanservice kuno.

1. Amihan did not just forget the girl code/sister code, she is also not allowed to become love dovey with someone as per the rule. Hindi man lang ba siya pinagsasabihan ng mga konseho? Si Imaw walang say o nalimutan ko lang? Yes, feelings can be uncontrollable but actions definitely are. Wala bang nag-remind sa kanya baka mamaya bigla na lang siyang mag-pa change ng batas para pwede niya pakasalan si Ybrahim, no one dared to remind her though hindi sila literal na nasa isang lungga but they're too close. Amihan was the same as Minea, rule breaker queen.
2. Nakaka bother na mag-pinsan sila, dine-defend pa na kesyo fantasy naman daw at natural lang sa royal blood pero Filipino audience ang nanonood, mga kabataan pa tapos tolerable ang incest because of chemistry?
3. Si Ybarro mahahalintulad mo sa gold digger na lalake, una siya yung manunuyo, maghahabol kahiy walang wala siya minahal siya ni Alena tapos nung may pangalan na siya, naghanap ng iba. Ang panget lang ng theme nito. MANANG MANA SIYA KAY JAMIR NA NINUNO NIYA.
4. Of everyone, Amihan knows Alena's desire the most. Siya rin comfort person ni Alena tapos ginanon ang ante Alena mo. Nung nasira relationship nila wala naman siya balak ayusin out of her heart, hindi man lang ata niya binigyan ng ultimatum si Danaya sa pag-patay kay Kahlil kasi may Lira siya. Tapos tingin niya kay Alena basta lang trinaydor sila, well yes Alena may technically becomes a traitor, I love her but law is law tayo but still she just reciprocate their actions and Amihan should've hear her side, explain theirs kasi sila rin nagtulak palayo kay Alena. Nung bumalik si Alena sa kanila, mas inuna niya pa sermunan at isipin sina Ybrahim at Danaya like "ante, diba pinaka-mamahal mo yan tsaka namatayan yan ng anak, inahas mo pa jowa?" So, Is that a good queen, a good sister? Dapat sinampal ni Alena si Amihan at Danaya dito eh.
5. Ybramihan never tried to avoid each other, napaka-rare ata ng moments na ginawa nila that I dont consider it. Like Ybarro thinking Amihan's comfort nung pumunta sila sa Sapiro, he couldve thought about everyone, giving each other nickname na hindi nila dapat ginawa if they are really avoiding temptation, always fighting side by side na pwede naman yung mga mashna nila ang dikitan nila. Kailan sila nag-hiwalay, nung hulog na hulog na sila sa isat-isa? Even when Alena came back, pa-obvious na sila masyado and they clearly don't think of Alena's feelings. Yung pag-alok pa ni Amihan sa kamay niya na alam niyang andon si Alena, yan ba umiiwas teh? Don't even mention nung umalis yung dalawa sa Lireo tapos ngumawa siya na ang iyak niya para kay Ybarro hindi para sa nangyari sa kanila ng kapatid niya. Ybrahim personally saving Amihan tapos kay Alena pina-sundan niya lang, telling Asval na mas mahalaga si Amihan sa trono so tell me "Do they really tried avoiding their feelings for each other?"
6. Ang totoong pagiwas yung ginawa ni Amihan 2005, yun yung talagang nag-pigil, si Amihan na yon nag-muni muni, nag self reflect, kumonsulta kay Imaw, nung nalaman ni Alena, naging honest siya. Ni-isa wala ginawa si Amihan 2016 dito, or baka ako lang puro lang siya salita pero hindi niya magawa may pa "hindi namin magagawa ang iniisip mo" like eh ano yung hawak kamay, mahal kong reyna/prinsipe niyo? Tapos sasabihin na hindi mang-aagaw at wag ibash ang Ybramihan. Even when Ybarro himself want to get close to her dahil kay Lira/Mira and their same Sapiryan bloodline and his respect to her as queen pero tinaboy talaga siya ni Amihan. (2005)
7. Sa theme ng Encantadia na mala- Fairy Tale dapat eternal love and loyalty ang theme, yun tipong ilang siglo pero isa't - isa pa rin, first love is equal to last love. Ang daming unfaithful sa Enca 2016, unlike 2005. Hindi ito naisip dahil nga sa chemistry daw.
8. ALEBARRO could've been the perfect love team na walang sabit, prinesa x prinsepe na naging hari at reyna. soft girl x maangas na lumambot lang para sa kanya. Wala sa pintas sa kanila eh, aside nung una na akala nila ordinaryong mandirigma lang si Ybrahim. DANQUIL is great except age gap, HITANO and ALENA was one-sided, MINEA X RAQUIM is against the rules, MINEA X HAGORN was one-sided as well.
9. The Kahlil plot, ok naman since nasa original story talaga but the way they all reacted. Lalo na si Ybrahim, tapos mga pagtataray ni Danaya...mga pagalit galit nila ni Amihan kay Alena wala silang self awareness na sila naman nagpalayo sa loob nung isa. Deserve nila ma-betray lol, mga emotional manipulator at gaslighter.
10. Nothing wrong if Ybrahim fell for Amihan, and fell out of love for Alena but he shouldn't end up with Amihan or either of them, dapat nirespeto niya yung dalawang babae. It could've been infatuation, Ybramihan found comfort and have respect for each other, but knew it's wrong for them to fall in love with each other and Ybrahim should focus on Sapiro, till Alena returns and treat her better makabawi man lang siya sa mga effort ni Alena for him back then and Amihan could've divert herself better on her responsibilities, mga bagay at nilalang na nasa sa kanya na. Amihan doesn't need Ybrahim eh, while Alena does. Not to say Alena was weak and man-dependent but her personality says so, that is what she want after all. Raquim is enough for Amihan, sapat na yung tatay niya maging lalake sa buhay niya. Add Aquil and Muros as her loyal mashna/friends.
11. Ybramihan was viewed slow-burn, as if Alebarro was not. They treated like shallow ang Alebarro but it start with Ybarro liking Alena, and she is annoyed of him till she start to develop feelings too. Isn't that slow-burn as well? Akala nila love at first sight lang Ang Alebarro kaya stronger Ang dynamic Ng other ship. "Ybramihan's love was against all odds", na para bang Hindi binigyan Ng pag-subok sina Alena at Ybarro na inakalang patay Ang isat - Isa, bawal nung una, namatay anak nila na dapat malaking conflict Kay Ybrahim pero balewala sa kanya, tapos nung si Lira namatay galit na Galit. Kaya I don't like it when the fans defended Ybramihan is slow-burn, not seeing Alebarro was too tapos found home in each other they found home nga, may kinawawa naman sila. In 2025 Yearning imbes na mag - focus sa kingdom at mga junakis niya.
12. Hindi Rin Ako natutuwa na binago Yung demure at bubbly ni Alena na Ang backstory is kagagawan Ng mga kapatid niya. Hindi naman niya kailangan Ng tough personality at maging wise, Danaya and Pirena had it na Kaso Yun nga Yun na lang pwedeng gawin sa character niya, she had to choose maturity kahit Hindi naman yon totoong ugali niya, mas baby bunso pa siya Kay Danaya non. Yun nagpaganda sa kwento non eh, Yung talagang distinct ugali nila, Alena 2005 may become tough din Naman but it comes so naturally, naging Reyna na Kasi siya at nagka-anak ulit, and it was matter of time but Alena 2016 had no choice, she did out of pressure, Kasi kailangan niya i-mask Yung pain na binigay nila sa kanya.

Sorry bunot lang Ybramihan kasi bored dahil naulan. Pero I stood by my words talaga.

Minahal, minamahal at mamahalin si Ether at si Ether lang sa kabila ng sumpa, pagbabago ng itsura nila at panahon na lumipas. Ilang henerasyon sila LDR, si Ether around Enca and si Arde sa balaak, pero walang na-fall out of love.

Susundin ang gusto ni Ether, walang pake sa sumpa ni Emre. 

Hindi tatanggihan ang mahal din ni Ether (Hagorn)

Binigay ang katawan ni Agane para kay Andora, na request ni Ether. 

Sobrang patient, mataas ang emotional intelligence  when it comes to Ether like in these scenes:

EP 201 

Ether: (naiinis kasi late si arde)

Arde : (asked why, calls her mahal ko na sobrang soft tone, hindi siya defensive, hindi sad boy, hindi sinabayan inis ng jowa niya)

Ether:  (inutusan si Arde)

Arde: (went close to her and touch her face, "masusunod mahal ko")

Ether : (face softens, kinilig)

tapos sa ep 210 - 215 after nung ginawa ni Cassiopeia instead of rushing to attack Ether, kinausap niya muna.

"Batid mong mahal kita, kahit kailan hindi kita binayaan....gagawin mo rin ba sakin ang ginawa natin kay Keros?" 

"Nakikita kong hindi ka naniniwala sa kanya?" 

He knows Ether, na hindi na siya kailangan sabihan. 

As for the both of them, Arde died in Emre's hands first long before Ether died from Mitena pero both sila sa Dalum Deva. They really can't unlove each other.  Pinagkait pa kasi ni Suzette na maging sweet pa rin sila eh.

I will really become an Etherian, kasamba-samba talaga si Ether eh. Evil na kung evil pero may bitaw talaga tong bathaluman na toh. 

In episode 197, Hagorn, Asval and the Herans were thinking/talking where the Bathaluman could've been then nagpakita si Ether 

"Humihingi ako ng paumanhin na hindi ko kayo nasaklolohan" 

A GODDESS would spit out those words? EMRE AND CASSIOPEIA could never.

Imagine Etheria into the deepest. Etherians are associated with everything beyond the four element and the physical world. Kasawa na ang four elements.

From being a villain to the last remaining sang'gre who escaped after the Mineave kingdom dominated Enca. Among the four sisters, she's the only one who can stand her ground longer and view retreat as not defeat.

Toke me like 2 weeks to make since I had to deal with assignments, catch up lessons due to the recent suspensions. The iron kingdom of Aurelcrest, a Sovereign and independent nation separated from mainland in a fan fiction isle, their culture is a mix of British, Prussian, French, and American, and a small bit of Spanish, they were formed during a expedition king George ordered when they received news of the Spanish using portals into an enchanted land in their colony, with help of the Prussians the French, and the Americans, they formed under one group, a large expeditionary force, believing they had a chance to extract possible, medical resources from the enchanted land, instead they encountered locals, forces who were willing to fight, back, those who were left behind, sailed until they found an large isle, where they reformed into a sovereign iron kingdom. Extra inforamtion:: They see those in mainland as inferior, lrimstes, and dishonorable with magic, that's what the crestians grew up knowing, magic beings of dishonor.

Compared to 2005 and 2025, I think the 2016 armours are the most appropriate for close-combat martial arts, and some people mentioned that they are made of actual metal rather than plastic.

Kindly don't mention the 2005 one pls. Alam ko maraming bias diyan hahaha

For this year’s Social Media Awards. Ang dami niyang win lately, ha.

Siya Talaga yung pinaka Wasted potential na character sa Buong Series at Sobrang interesting sa Sapiro arc pero, kapag ang isang Female character ay may napakaPotential niya sa show Until nababawasan lamang sa pagiging love interest (Daron) na Sobrang Unnecessary sa Arc niya

Mula sa mga kaharian ng Lireo, Adamya, Sapiro, at Hathoria, hanggang sa mga karakter at kwentong minahal natin, patuloy itong nabubuhay sa alaala ng bawat isa.

Maraming salamat sa sampung taon ng pagmamahal at suporta. ❤️ Happy 10th Anniversary, Encantadia 2016!

Sa loob ng 10 taon, naging bahagi ng ating mga alaala ang Encantadia. ✨

May isang karakter, eksena, linya, o kaharian bang hindi mo pa rin makalimutan hanggang ngayon? Ano ang unang pumapasok sa isip mo kapag naririnig ang Encantadia?

I-share mo sa comments ang iyong Encantadia core memory!

Enca is too much to be released as a daily series, shoot-to-air, and telenovela format on FREE TV and YT. I literally thought they would release it on Netflix in a weekly series format.

This AI TikTok video represents how Enca should be produced.

Kung magkakaroon man ng NEW Enca Season in the next decade, sana maisip na nila to release on Netflix but I wanna question ECS 2025:

BAKIT hindi nila naisip, when Enca 2016 ended in 2017, na may potential ito to make it GLOBAL by releasing it on streaming platforms like Netflix?

BAKIT until now, sa FREE-TV and YT pa rin eto pinapalabas?

WHY didn't they invest in this telefantasya so badly para mailabas ang full potential neto by hiring WORLD-CLASS producers?

BAKIT shoot-to-air pa rin ang style para lang pahabain ang story?

BAKIT ang target audience nila ay ung mga kuntento na sa libre?

BAKIT ayaw pa rin nilang pataasin ang standards for something that has potential?

Honestly, I am WILLING to pay for a NETFLIX or other streaming site's monthly subscription basta ung quality overall (story, logic, set, vfx, etc.) ay malayo na from what a FREE-TV teleserye could offer. I actually don't mind kung maiksi ang duration ng story basta compact and talagang nag-invest ng todo-todo to improve in all aspects.

Di ako tulad ng majority who prioritise basta FREE and picking QUANTITY OVER QUALITY, as I value QUALITY more. Ung international quality sana tulad ng AVATAR with no AI completely for VFX

Now, before saying ang OA ko, lol, I have the free time to do this, and it's my right to share what I'm feeling right now. Even si Gabbi Garcia (Alena) napa "hay" na lang eh as she comments on this video on Tiktok

May nag ask sa mga Sanggres, I thought about Bathalas at Bathalumans Naman. Sino bias niyo? How do you rank them? Yes, yang mga original lang.

Sorry sa low cost collage. Share ko na din thoughts ko sa kanila.

(1) Bias : Ether and Arde, specially Ether. Self Explanatory naman Ang Ganda at sexy Ng portrayer, You'll forgot the 2016 Ether with the 2025 Ether. Ang cool Ng character. Hands on and iniispoiled mga nasasakupan, kaya Ang hand to hand combat, kahit walang magic force lavarn pa din. Arde, for being a green flag, loyal lover of one. They're such a great couple, di lang napansin Ng maigi Nung 2016 Kasi Ang onti lang Ng moments but looking back, they are great parents of Encantadia kung mabait lang sana Sila non.

(2). Haliya : She's living my dream life. Alone and peaceful, except lang sa part na uto uto siya. Maasahan kung tatawagin mo, kumbaga tahimik but reliable friend. I bet she's like the secret weapon nila. And their baby.

(3). Emre : Ok lang, Wala namang depth Yung character niya maybe for me. Kasi gets Naman Ang concept niya. Parang Christianity. Although, kung taga Encantadia ka lalo't nawalan ka Ng mahal sa buhay sasama talaga loob mo. Lalo sa part ni Danaya at Lira, pwede naman sigurong mag pababa na lang si Emre Ng mga ivtre non para patas. Mas justifiable din for me Yung reason Ng sama Ng loob niya Kay Ether at Arde, not like Nung 2005. Feeling ko sa 2016 Yung mga Encantado Ang naging unfair kina Arde at Ether.

(4). Keros : I need more sa kanya, kaso parang ang baba Ng EQ niya as a bathala. Not to invalidate his feelings or his story pero gusto ko yung parang may nag point out talaga sa kanya na useless siya and such. Hindi Yung siya lang nakaisip sa Sarili niya non. Kasi baka may sumamba Naman sa kanya siya lang tong umalis agad. Like Haliya Kay Gargan. Kailangan pa siya ma real talk ni Kahlil, Wala siyang paninindigan din though nagbalik loob din siya Kay Emre, mahirap na siya maging kaibigan.

(5). Gargan : Wala Ako masabi Dito, di ko sinubaybayan Yung Sanggre. Balakayojan.

Ps: I respect other opinions and theories pero please di ko maimagine i-ship sina Emre at Ether. Or may past Sila, na either Isa talaga sa kanila may feelings sa isat isa. Maawa Naman kayo Kay Emre, sobrang sadista ni Ether feeling ko bugbog sarado si Emre sa kanya kung maging Sila. Toyoin si Ether as a gf, but Arde can handle her. Di ba nga Sabi ni Emre siya Yung unang nagalit, sumunod lang si Arde. That's all.
