Encantadia Chronicles: Sang'gre

The information on this page is false. There is no such production as the one identified on this page. The person who created this page obviously took much effort in filling details, some of it based on the real Encantadia production which aired from 2016 to 2017.

As someone who has followed and loved Encantadia from its previous versions especially the 2016 adaptation I am deeply disappointed with the direction that Encantadia 2025 has taken. It's honestly painful to watch something that once held so much meaning become stripped of its emotional depth, strong storytelling, and respect for legacy characters.

The way the original characters were handled was extremely careless. They were treated as if they were disposable - characters who were once powerful, wise, and emotionally complex were killed off without any proper build-up, meaningful closure, or respectful send-off. For example, Cassiopeia, who is now a Bataluman (a goddess-level being), was portrayed as weak and lacking wisdom - the very traits that once defined her. There was no effort to show her power, her intelligence, or her connection to the realms. She was simply removed.

Cassandra was another huge letdown. The character has so much potential - she is born from a royal line, she is unique, and was meant to represent the bridge between generations. But she was poorly written and underdeveloped. It felt like she was intentionally set up to fail, just so the new generation could be pushed to the spotlight. There was no proper arc, no bonding with the old Sang'gres, no real emotional scenes, no development of her power. Then just like that, she's gone. No purpose, no payoff.

I understand that the 2025 series is meant to tell a new story. But pushing the new generation forward should not require destroying or weakening the legacy of the past characters. That's not how you honor the world you're building. That's not how you handle a fantasy franchise with so much emotional investment from its fans.

Even if this is just the "prologue," as they say, a prologue should still have structure, emotional weight, and narrative purpose. What we got instead were rushed scenes, weak battles, confusing transitions, and characters we barely had time to connect with before they were thrown away. There's no sense of direction the story jumps around, and the pacing feels broken. It's clear the planning was rushed, and the execution is all over the place.

And worst of all, when fans gave feedback not even bashing, just real, constructive criticism some of the writers replied in sarcastic and dismissive ways. That's unprofessional. A show that thrives on community support should learn to listen to that community, not belittle them. Especially when we, the fans, have waited nearly a decade, only to be met with storytelling that feels empty, emotionless, and disrespectful to what came before.

Encantadia 2025 had so much potential. It still does - if they choose to listen. But as of now, it feels like a show that has lost its way, failed to honor its past, and disrespected the very fans who helped carry it all these years. That's why the ratings are dropping. That's why the reviews are poor. And that's why we speak up. Because this show deserved better. And so did we.

So disappointing. The fans waited for the whole 9 years just to get this kind of storyline? Better if they did another adaption rather than making the continuation. The creation of Terra was so forced and she's not even THAT special- I mean her, being a half human is never a special factor after all. Imagine, Encantadia is a magical world full of enchanting stuffs and powers only to end up being saved by HALF HUMAN? They really underestimated the powers in Encantadia and it doesn't make sense. The insert of being a "human" is too forced as well. I couldn't bring myself to continue watching the SANGGRE because as an Encantadia Fan since 2016, all we ever wanted is the continuation of the cliff hanging ending in 2016 not a bunch of another Sanggres when the Original Sanggres in 2016 wasn't even able to showcase their real talents and powers.

The film suffers from a profoundly disorganized narrative and an underdeveloped screenplay, which undermines any attempt at cohesive storytelling. The amateurish quality of the script suggests a fundamental lack of structural understanding. Compounding these issues, the cinematography is remarkably ineffective. It demonstrates a notable deficiency in visual storytelling, with shots frequently lacking purpose or connection to the broader narrative. The judicious use of B-roll and panning, crucial elements for establishing context and mood, is conspicuously absent. Instead, the visual language often devolves into an almost commercial-like aesthetic, characterized by repetitive and uninspired close-ups, appearing with distracting frequency. A study of established cinematic benchmarks, such as the epic scale and intricate visual narratives of The Lord of the Rings trilogy or the dynamic compositions within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, would be beneficial for the filmmakers. Ultimately, the narrative's derivative nature, coupled with its disjointed execution, implies that the scriptwriter either misunderstood or failed to adequately engage with the classical inspirations purportedly informing the story.

We Deserved Better Than This

As a long-time fan of Encantadia, this new installment feels like a betrayal. The legacy of Mira, Lira, and Cassandra was not just rushed - it was disrespected. These characters weren't side pieces; they were central to the soul of Lireo and the continuation of the Sang'gre line. Reducing their roles to quick, tragic exits just to spotlight new faces is lazy writing, not bold storytelling.

We're not against new characters. But building a new generation should be about continuity, not replacement. The writing feels like it's scared of being overshadowed by the power and emotional depth of the originals - but that's not how you honor a legacy. You build on it, not erase it.

Also, stop using "plot twists" and "shocking deaths" as excuses for poor development. Killing beloved characters without purpose isn't brave - it's clout chasing. We deserve better. These characters deserved better. And if the goal was to make us love the new ones, this wasn't the way.

We're not just fans. We're part of the story too. And this? This hurt.
