I'm gonna give you a hint at a small thing, but Solaria was a queen from a long time ago. She's not a recent queen and has an interesting spot in the lineage. It's not really a plot spoiler more of a side note, that might even have already been revealed, I can't remember for sure. (I think it was in the grandma room if it was)

2020-06-11 18:08:50 +0000 UTCThe Quasar thing is also really like a Marvel or DC multiverse because her name is Quasar which through a telescope appears like a star like object though it theoretically may contain a supermassive blackhole and may be a stage in the evolution of galaxies. I'm more familiar with DC's multiverse so I know they have characters like in Universe 3 (The evil Multiverse) Superman is Ultraman and gets his power from Kryptonite and is weakened by the Sun, and instead of the Justice League he is in the Crime Syndicate. Although in the past DC limited itself to 52 universes they introduced the Dark Multiverse which are negatively numbered failed universes where the worst possible things happened and they were wiped out. That's where they had the evil versions of Batman like The Batman who Laughs.

2020-06-11 18:00:47 +0000 UTCI really love Princess Quasar. We finally get to see a real "parallel universe" in action. I've always felt that Star treats different planets as "dimensions" in that when they use the scissors they are really only traveling to some other physical location within their "universe." Here we finally see the show demonstrate that there are truly perhaps parallel dimensions similar to the main one a la the Marvel comics multiverse where theoretically an infinite number of dimensions, both extremely similar and extremely different exist. Obviously getting too deep into this, is probably just a headache waiting to happen, but I like to think that in this episode we truly see some "dimensional" travel. Although to be fair, Quest Buy seemed to exist in some sort of pocket dimension, because man that place is weird. Talking about the rest of the episode, I have to say I love Dennis in this one, but you're 100% right that him getting grumpy at Ludo finally kind of freaking out a bit after he pushed him back towards his old life was totally uncalled for. And damn, that scene where Ludo just straight mercs that comically bad villain is just pure gold. Ghost of Butterfly Castle is a really underrated episode that I think deserves a TON of credit. It does a great job of setting up the "situation" on Mewni. We have ton of disaffected Mewmans either living in complete squalor or completely unable to take care of themselves as for their entire lives, the royal family has provided for everyone. You can see Moon's growing unease with the status quo as the episode goes on, from initially relaxed and unbothered, to braving ruins to try and help out her "yurt camp" which in this case is really just a parallel kingdom in the making. All in all a great couple episodes, one that revisits a fan favorite, and another that sets up some potential Mewni shattering conflict in the near future!
