When magical princess Star Butterfly receives a royal magic wand for her 14th birthday, she proves to her parents that she is not ready for the responsibility that comes with it. As a result, they send her to a place that doesn't have magic -- Earth -- in hopes that she will gain maturity. Upon her arrival, Star is given a family to help guide her, so she moves in with the Diaz family, which includes teenage son Marco. Star takes Marco with her as she battles villains -- both in their high school and throughout the universe -- as she attempts to protect her powerful wand.

Kevin Johnson AV Club 04/30/2019
B+
It's a show that leans slightly more towards absurdity and wackiness, with quick, snappy action and energetic performances, playing against the bubbly aesthetics of "princess" tropes. Go to Full Review
Sean Aitchison CBR 04/30/2019
Star Vs. [the Forces of Evil] is a lot of fun, combining Sailor Moon with high school dramadies, getting surprisingly deep at times. Go to Full Review
Alexis Gunderson Paste Magazine 04/30/2019
Combatively silly, morally complex and full of philosophical absurdity, [Star vs. the Forces of Evil] is the smart, weird, politically engaged cartoon you'd never known it was possible to wish for, let alone to hope to see on Disney. Go to Full Review
Marcy Cook The Mary Sue 04/30/2019
The show has stylised and distinctive artwork, it's like Japanese and Western animation went to the same party, hit it off and ended up in a wardrobe together. Go to Full Review

3/5
If unpredictability and fantasy are your kids' tastes, then Star's adventures will keep them entertained. Go to Full Review

Dziuginta @IHATESTARVSFORCESOFEVIL Feb 2 IT WAS GREAT, ALL OF IT WAS GREAT, IT'S LOVELY. BUT I FUCKING HATE THE LAST EPISODE, IT RUINED EVERYTHING IT IS UTTER AND ABSOLUTE GARBAGE See more Noe G May 19 Star vs The forces of evil season one is an amazing season. My favorite character is star butterfly, and my rating is a 10/10 See more james o May 4 the series wanted to be a show like Dragon Ball, Sailor Moon, The Ren and Stimpy Show and Magic Knight Rayearth, in addition to heavy influence from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Revolutionary Girl Utena, Pepper Ann, Twelve Forever, Invader Zim, Kim Possible, Winx Club, Scott Pilgrim, Gravity Falls. See more Rafael L 07/29/2023 A primeira temporada apresenta histórias pouco impactantes se comparar com as outras, mas sua simplicidade se torna divertida a ponto de ser satisfatória de ver, alguns episódios podemos pular, sim, mas o conceito de magia e viagem dimensional aqui são um espetáculo, os personagens são carismáticos, sua relação é um ponto forte da história, e o/os vilões são legais de acompanhar! See more Ed 03/18/2023 First, the good. I really enjoyed Star's energy, Star and Marco's dynamic, and the world. There were just a few things keeping the show from reaching its full potential. The episodes are half length, which means there can't be that much character growth/ interaction before the world is reset. Ludo is never a serious threat, so interactions with him seem pointless and slightly boring. Some of the characters, outside the main duo, aren't as fun (take glossaryck, he's just weird and annoying). Some of the episodes made me uncomfortable (I'm looking at you, mewberty). Some episodes left me wondering if anything even happened or will have a influence later (blood moon thingy). In conclusion, I probably would have been fine with just watching the first three and last episode. The overall story is interesting, I just don't know if I have the endurance to sit through the rest of it. I skimmed through some episodes from future Seasons to come to basically the same conclusion. See more 12/03/2020 I remember watching Star Vs. The Forces Of Evil on Disney Plus until the series finale. It was okay at times, not the best nor worst. But other times, it was pretty good. I would suggest checking it out See more Read all reviews
