Do you think Marcos saw enough of Rayla's face to ever see her in the castle now and think, "...wait a minute."

I still want Princess Marco as the new ruler of Mewni

So I came up with a fan theory a while ago that Marco could be a descendant of Meteora, either by being her son or by being a distant descendant after the family relocated to earth to avoid further persecution from the Mewmans.

I still stand by this fun theory until the creators tell me 100% otherwise. I mean this show his magic, and we have seen evidence of Time and Memory Erasing magic - so any combination is possible to make these theories come true.

Anyway, in the recent episodes we did find out that, yes Tom is in fact a monster. Just like Star said before, there wasn’t a difference between him and the others besides his money and title. This is going to challenge so many barriers for so many people in Mewni, so many people who thought they were one thing or even better than others are going to have their entire world challenged. Like Ponyhead, she’s a monster, how will she react when it’s pointed out that she’s the same as BuffFrog?(Probably say whateve’s and just state that no mater what she’s just gonna be the flyest thing in the room no matter what. Come on who else can hear her say that.)

Anyway back to Marco, I really like the idea of him taking the crown to rule for a few reasons.

1. He can build a bridge than Star could because he understands both sides better.

2. Sorry Star, but I do think Marco would be a better leader than you. They did acknowledge that Marco is older, that his age did stay from when he trained with Heckapoo, so he does have those years of maturity. Now does he act goofy sometimes still, yes but that could just be personality, but overall he does make way way better choices than Star. Star is better suited for combat, like a military leader, but Marco does make better choices on behalf of the group. He would make the better long term choices to ensure the kingdom would thrive.

3. He sees the big picture. Star is pretty narrow minded, even with the best intentions. Like with the monsters, she sees the straight path of wanting to have everyone get along, but doesn’t see all of the obstacles that could prevent that from happening. Sometimes you can’t just charge through the front door and take what you want, you need more of a plan to safely achieve your goal.

4. Dude has already changed more for the people of Mewni than Star has. I mean, Marco is a feminist, he lead a revolution for the princesses, never once said this is how a girl or boy ‘should or shouldn’t’ act, and has just treated everyone with respect until said person showed their true colors and showed what a buttface they really were. Monster, princess, mewman, Marco has treated everyone the same and inturn has earned the respect of everyone around him. Even the ones who were jerks and though his kindness was weakness, when he showed it wasn’t, they corrected themselves. If Marco and Star lead a campaign for leader, and neither one could offer ‘I can use magic’ who do you think would get the most votes? I mean, Star is great, but what has she done for her people? Defeat Toffee? The bad guy who was attacking the kingdom in direct retaliation to the attack and persecution her family inflected on him and his people? Not that, that justifies his actions, ok she took out Toffee (I won’t count Ludo since he was possessed). What else. Did she do anything else for her people, big or small? Oh she got BuffFrog a job, ok 2 things. Still think Marco’s pulling ahead but ok.

5. Personal preference - I just want to see Tom react to finding out he’s no better than Marco. So Tom has a complex if you haven’t picked up on it. I think he does care for Star, and when she started caring for Marco, his inferiority complex went to ‘she likes him better because he’s not a monster. But I’m still better because I’m rich and royal’. Well what would happen if Marco was ‘also’ rich and royal....and possibly part monster. That would make both guys the same, in that regard. Then it would just be a matter of who’s the better royal, Tom has already said he doesn’t do politics so I don’t see him doing much if he doesn’t have to and I’ve already given my two cents on how great Marco is.

6. People are gonna hate me, but I DON’T want Star and Marco as a couple. I see them more like Will and Grace, more than friends but less than lovers. Their personalities mesh well to be best friends but I don’t think would work well as life partners. I think they would work well as friends/ ruler and general of the army - but as king and queen, I don’t think so. I think they each sorta gravitated to each other because they were each so different than what they were normally around. I mean look at all the guys Star had dated/ been around before she met Marco. They were nothing like him, and that’s what made her grow closer to him. Plus all those new feelings could be mistaken for love, they’re teenagers! They don’t know what they’re feeling. Same for Marco. Star is unlike any girl he’s ever met, he wants to be there for her, but it’s very easy to mistake platonic love for romantic love. Especially when everyone around you is pairing up and you’re all alone.

7. Could Marco still be related to Eclipsa and Meteora - I think yes. For one, magic. Old tried and true but yes, memory eraser or something could have placed him on earth. Option B, he’s just a descendent. Option C, his parents are really, really weird. I mean really weird. Aside from M. Jackson how many people named their 2nd son after their 1st. And why did Marco have to explain that to them? He even mentioned to Kelly back at the Goblin Dog truck that he felt like he was raising them, who’s to say they aren’t some sort of magic creature guardians that were sappost to keep an eye on him as part of a coverup, and are just failing since they have no idea what humans are sappost to do? And as far as his mom being pregnant, well I mean we can just see how that unfolds. All ‘we’ the viewer see is her belly and a very clear sonogram picture, yes I know it’s a cartoon but that would have to be one heck of a mole to show up like that. So yah, they could be like goblins or something, using magic to hide their form.

Lol how funny would the reveal be if like the Mom goes into labor, Marco is trying to help, but strangely his parents keep trying to shoo him away. He ends up staying because there’s no other choice...and out pops a baby goblin.

As my gift to you for reading this long post, just take a moment to imagine Marco’s face, and his parents trying to cover it up.

Marco: ( just bug eyed while he holds the goblin baby)

Dad and mom share a scared look.

Dad: *gasp* “Honey! How could you!”
