It’s going to get a little weird and wild! Star vs. the Forces of Evil is coming back to Disney XD July 11! Created by Daron Nefcy, the show aired on Disney XD on March 30, 2015. Nefcy created Star Butterfly, the main female of the show, to be like Sailor Moon, a magical girl. She also created Marco Diaz, the main male, to be obsessed with karate and Dragon Ball Z. The two live in the same household. Star is a foreign exchange student, and she and Marco were enemies at first, but now are best friends. Marco’s parents took in Star when she came to Earth from Mewni.
