SVTFOE S03 E12 Full Length Reaction

Comments

This is an absolutely fantastic pair of episodes. First, "Night Life" is a just a ton of fun. We get to see Marco and Heckapoo's dynamic being explored more which is a great extension of the hints we got at "Running with Scissors" I pick up a feeling that Heckapoo is pretty taken with adult Marco as evidenced by him teasing her and her being unable to resist his adult voice. Talon was a fanastic foil to Marco here as he's everything Marco isn't, it pleases me to tell you we're going to see Talon Raventalon again, and he is 100% solid gold every damn time! OH and that ending quote from Marco? How can you not love him saying how protecting her is his #1 priority. So cute! "Deep Dive" is among my favorite episodes from the entire series. You have the culmination of Star learning to control her Butterfly form, and some amazingly sweet moments between our two protagonists. I loved the design and feel of the realm of magic, how exposure to it seems to sort of make you "drunk" and "amnesiac" at the same time. The Firstborn was such a powerful call back to the Toffee episodes and has ramifications that go far beyond the very bit of screen time it got. It means Star Butterfly is literally responsible for the rebirth of magic in the entire universe after Toffee corrupted and destroyed it. That's astounding to me to be honest. And the wand rescue scene! So good! I love the look they gave it when Marco picked it up. I believe it's supposed to be a reflection of the wielders personality. So for Star, it's obviously more bubbly and happy with all the pinks and purples, and hearts, with just a touch of mischief as evidenced by those red devil horns. And we see for Marco it's a bit more dark. You have a more martial look with the dagger spike on the top that would serve as a weapon in close quarters, the the dragon wings representing possibly his dragon cycle, and the jade green face-plate which I think looks a lot like a stylized "Compass Rose." It would fit him perfectly as Marco is indeed a traveler of tons of different dimensions both with and without Star at his side. This kind of ties into the fact that the theme song of the show isn't sung by Star, but Marco. So it really ties in together nicely with his whole personality. Overall its a great look and seeing those cheek marks sort of burn their way onto his cheeks as the spell was cast was incredibly cool. To me it was one of those "bad ass" moments, like in the season 1 finale when Star puts that wall up to stop the monsters with that simple utterance of "No.", or of course when she transforms for the first time and just basically melts Toffee.

These episodes were interesting. We got to learn what Star’s been doing in her butterfly form at night. The realm of magic and those unicorns she created are almost certainly going to come into play later, so I’m curious to see where they’ll come in. And yeah, Marco using Star’s wand was definitely huge. I feel sure we’ll see him use it again. Can’t wait to see what they do with that (I agree with you about the wand looking a little more “evil” for him though). And yes! Janna! I missed her! She’s one of my favourite characters, and she was great here, as usual. I hope we’ll continue to see more of her from now on. I feel like she would fit right in on Mewni, lol. Yeah, there was definitely quite a bit of fanservice in Night Life, lol. Adult Marco is really fun (probably because it’s so much different from how he usually is XD), and I really like Marco’s interactions with Hekapoo. I guess I will say, I think they could have made the humour with the Raven biker guy a bit funnier. Most of it didn’t make me laugh as much as I thought it could. That’s a minor gripe though. Favourite Quotes: “Hey! Who you callin’ weird? I’m quirky.” – Four-eyed pirate guy “This is a meowtrage, I say!” – Cat guy “I’m at your service, m’lady.” – Marco “Don’t ever call me that.” – Star “Doesn’t this seem like overkill?” – Marco “Talon likes overkill!” – Talon “Haven’t I earned your trust by now?” – Marco “NO!” – Hekapoo “*Sigh* Pretty please, H-Poo?” – Marco “Aaargh! You know I can’t resist your adult voice!” – Hekapoo “Janna, stop blowing in Marco’s hair!” – Star “Chickenbutt.” – Janna “Hey! That’s my watch!” – Marco “Dude, this is about Star. Get over yourself.” – Janna “It’s been reborneded.” – Baby unicorn “That’s not a word.” – Star “GLOBGOR!” – Glossaryk “You’re a disgrace to magic.” – Janna “Ew, gross. Get a portal.” – Janna
