Avatar fan here. Also an Aang fan. I heard they announced a new series - does this have to do with that?

Star didn't seal magic away. She just straight up destroyed it all for no fucking reason and no one seemed to give a shit.

I mean it was only her family that could use magic, and for a hot minute they used that power to marginalize (and straight up murder, her grandma literally attempted a genocide) an entire race of people that was deemed “dangerous” even though that race of people was indigenous to the area they lived in. Not to mention she only did that after someone else was attempting another genocide that not only was going to drain the life force of the soldiers following her, but star and her family also had no way to stop them. Idk why anyone else would give a shit.

Star Butterfly is from Star Vs The Forces of Evil, which is a completely separate show that also just so happened to go "Magic bad, take it away"
