That’s interesting because I know that at least in the Nick dub they mentioned a certain type of alphabet used on the door to the Golden Kingdom they learned about from Palladium. They also learned about classical charms which I think were based on Latin. They very seldom mention what they learned in the later seasons, but it’s always a nice little throwback when they do.

Strangely, the 4Kids dub implemented a lot of steryotypical fantasy elements: incantations, realms, and things like potion ingredients were used, mentioned, or seen much more frequently. It’s as if they added a “witchy” element to fairy life which is an interesting take on fairy education and the series in general. That’s actually one of the things I found strange about the dub at first but I grew to love that factor of it as time went on.

I personally have never seen HP, but I know we’ve pulled inspiration from them other times like with the Flying Basilisks.

I agree about the Bollabies. I loved when they hung out with the Selkies.
