Almost a full year after the Season 3 finale and SVTFOE is back, this time on The Disney Channel premiering 8 new episodes in March! Starting Sunday, March 10th every week will debut 2 new episodes @ 8AM PT/ET. We don't know yet if more will air afterwards or if we'll be going into another hiatus. And yes, it's been confirmed that Season 4 will the The Final Season. No Ands, Ifs or Buts: Star Vs. will be ending for good after it airs all 21 episodes of this season. It's been quite a road to get here, the show started as something of a magical comedy with no rules, a sort of send-up of both 'magical girl' type shows and high-school, slice-of-life sitcoms. But slowly and surely it began to build up its world into something grander. Two different books have been released detailing a vast amount of background information the show only lightly touches on. The world of Mewni, apparently, is full of secrets.
With her royal status in doubt, Star gave up her right to the throne of Mewni and her family's royal wand to their rightful owner. It seems not having her magic wand won't be a problem for her, since it appears she is beginning to master "dipping down" to cast her magic spells. She's currently on a mission to find her missing mother, Queen Moon.
Star's best friend from the Earth dimension and sometimes crush. Sometimes wears a dress, sometimes inhabits the body of a warrior 16 years his senior. Still somewhat of a hopeless dork, but still determined to keep Star safe and aid her in finding Queen Moon. Owns a pair of dimensional scissors. Babysits on the side. Still won't acknowledge the elephant in the room.
A queen from a different era of Mewni's history, denied her birthright for the crime of taking a monster husband. Her right to rule has been restored to her thanks to Star Butterfly, but Eclipsa's current preoccupation is freeing her hubby Globgore from his crystal prison.
There's a lot to parse here since we need to summarize basically an entire season's worth of plot points, but these are the gists:
(most entries are hyperlinks to youtube clips so click away)
- After the Battle for Mewni, Star is determined to rebuild her home but Marco decides to return to Earth. They part ways.
- Glossaryck, thought to have killed by Ludo, is saved from magical purgatory by Star but not without complications.
- The Queen of Darkness, Eclipsa, returns to Butterfly Kingdom but is immediately captured. Thanks to Star, she earns a reprieve.
- With Marco out of the picture, Star reconciles with her ex-BF Tom and they begin a new relationship.
- It becomes obvious to both Marco and his GF Jackie that he still has Mewni on his mind. They break up and he pops back into Star's life.
- To facilitate his new experience, Marco decides to become Star's squire while on Mewni. The Besties are reunited and adventures are had.
- It is revealed that Star's latent powers are awakening in her sleep, opening portals with abandon.
- Marco clumsily realizes he might just have feelings beyond mere friendship for Star.
- Star's errant "Golden Butterfly" powers continue to persist while she sleeps and she inadvertently discovers the Realm of Magic.
- Star's attempts to force a reconciliation between Mewman and Monster are met with failure.
- Ms. Heinous, who's had a hateboner for Marco since Season 1, rediscovers her previous life during a battle in the Monster Temple.
- Queen Moon begrudgingly joins Eclipsa in searching for the truth of what happened to her family since she was frozen in crystal.
- The Magical High Commission are caught in a trap devised by Star, Moon and Eclipsa to suss out what happened to her daughter.
- Ludo is discovered by his younger brother to be alive but mentally unstable in an off-shoot dimension.
- Seeing no end in sight for Mewman-Monster reconciliation, Buffrog and other monsters depart Mewni. Star is crushed.
- A quick trip to Earth ends in Marco's parents telling him their pregnant, and his parents realizing they no longer know their son as well as Star does.
- Ms. Heinous, now going by Meteora, directly assaults St. Olga's to search for the truth about her past.
- Marco and Star's deeply buried feelings for each other come to light whilst locked in a photo booth. They vow to ignore it for now.
- Meteora, now in full monster mode, ravages the countryside on a warpath to Butterfly Kingdom. Moon and Eclipsa rush to stop and subdue her but fail. Moon is gravely injured and retreats through a portal to parts unknown.
- Star is made acting Queen in Moon's absence and has Marco lead a strike team to slow Meteora down while she looks for her mother.
- She eventually finds herself back in the Realm of Magic and stumbles on Moon, healed but amnesiac under the hypnotic influence of the realm.
- Star also succumbs but both are eventually evicted from the realm. Star awakes on Mewni sans her mother and resolves to take on Meteora head-on.
- But Meteora proves to be too strong even for her Golden Butterfly form and is saved in the nick of time by Eclipsa, who uses the royal wand to beat back her own daughter using her dark magic.
- For having saved her and the kingdom, Star allows Eclipsa to keep the royal wand and returns the throne to her.
