The characters in Encantadia has been updated from the original series as well as the maps, Adamya, Lireo, Sapiro and Hathoria and gains their own symbol. The Sapiryans are designed to resemble a ninja while the Hathors are resembling masked assassins. In character designs, Minea's warrior form is similar to Lira's warrior form in the original series and the costume designs of the four new Sang'gres' warrior forms had made a drastic change to their original appearance and Raquim's appearance in the requel had made him identical to King Ybrahim's appearance in Etheria and Encantadia: Pag Ibig Hanggang Wakas due to their similar crown and appearance. The four gems however had minor changes which it resembles a sphere in the original series as it changes into a different shape. The fire gem is now in a tear drop shape, the wind gem is now in a crystal shape, the water gem is now in a sphere shape and the earth gem is now in an oblong shape.

The series then unfolds to reveal that a small shard flew away when the Mother Gem was divided, a fifth white gem known as the Soul Gem was included with the four elemental gems.

In the first teaser of the requel, the Sang'gres are seen in their princess forms as Glaiza De Castro, Kylie Padilla and Sanya Lopez are earlier seen in the Chika Minute segment in 24 Oras where they try on their character's primary gowns for the series.

Adhara's appearance in the requel is identical to Pirena in the original series when she became the temporary Queen of Lireo as well as showing the same antagonistic side as her original character and same ambition.
