It was...interesting. ;)
Very interesting. Something like Queen Eclipsa huh? I wonder if that's a good or bad thing? It seems both of them are rebels, for Eclipsa did run off with a monster. 🤔
I fear Star may be turning to the dark side. Think about it, she's using forbidden magic, her level is said to exceed many queens. That sound like the talk the Jedi were concerned with regarding Anakin getting more powerful.
With her strong magic, and her compation on some monsters (especially after Mewnipendence Day), it wouldn't surprise me one bit if she is somewhat like Eclipsa.
The episode as a whole was kind of meh for me, but the revelation at the end makes up for a LOT of it.
I really, really hope they start paying off these big story arcs they have been setting up.
I've wondered about it myself, of course there are bound to be slums in large kingdoms and the king and queen are good people but they do seem stuck in their ways. Mewmans seem to in general have a hard time changing their views on how the world should work which might be what caused Eclipsa to go evil.
