Nia (Thomas & Friends)

Nia is a character that appeared in the big world big adventures! movie and seasons 22-24. She was created to replace Edward in the main cast. She wasn't well received by fans and critics of Thomas and Friends for her qualities.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) She serves absolutely no purpose in the show and is just their to replace Edward on the steam team which makes her a filler character.
 * 2) Her personality is generic, bland, uninteresting, and boring.
 * 3) She feels like a rehash of Edward.
 * 4) Her 2-D redesign looks horrible.
 * 5) There is no explanation of why she lives at tidmouth sheds.
 * 6) Her reason for replacing Edward on the steam team gets very confusing as some websites say that she was put in because of criticism from feminist and social justice groups, but the Thomas and Friends fandom says that she was put in to fix the gender imbalance at tidmouth sheds.
 * 7) Like with all of the characters in seasons 22-24, her fantasy sequences are distracting, uncanny, painful to look at, and just plain awful.
 * 8) She is annoys Thomas a lot in the film.
 * 9) She's overall a character nobody asked for.

Good Qualities

 * 1) Nia has a neat design.
 * 2) Her voice acting is decent.
 * 3) She is pretty friendly.
 * 4) She has a pretty tragic backstory as her shed was destroyed in a storm and was forced to live outside.
 * 5) Her singing is also decent.
