Star vs. the Forces of Evil is an American animated magical girl television series created by Daron Nefcy and developed by Jordana Arkin and Dave Wasson for Disney Channel and Disney XD. It is the first Disney XD series and the third Disney Television Animation series (following Pepper Ann from 1997 and Doc McStuffins from 2012) to be created by a woman.

The series follows the adventures of Star Butterfly (voiced by Eden Sher), the young and turbulent heir to the royal throne in the dimension of Mewni, who is sent to Earth to mellow her reckless behavior. There, she befriends and becomes roommates with human Marco Diaz (Adam McArthur) and begins a semi-normal life in the town of Echo Creek, attending school and meeting new friends. Throughout the first season, the two travel to exotic dimensions using dimensional scissors while preventing the Mewman monster Ludo (Alan Tudyk), and later, Toffee (Michael C. Hall), from stealing Star's magic wand. As the series progresses, Star and Marco fall in love with each other, meet new friends, face new enemies, and travel to more strange dimensions.
