Some very good people...are doing some very bad things.

Warning: Spoilers
The Pizza Party title was very much an afterthought. It is only on screen for half a minute anyway in all the gripes I have with this episode's plot, which is all the review that it needs. Why the Hekapoo would Moon betray Eclipsa? She should not be holding a grudge against Eclipsa for sending her into the realm of magic after all this time. Why would she? Moon hardly remembers any of it. Moon is right to be mad at Mina for defending Meteora after Meteora turned into an insane monster, and causing Moon to forget her identity, so I can understand why Moon might want Eclipsa's family to leave Mewni, but because what Eclipsa did was an accident, there is no excuse for this grudge, and no conceivable explanation for why she would get Mina to strike Globgor and Eclipsa. If Moon knows how overeager Mina can get, how could she not expect Mina to stage a revolution to kill Eclipsa and all the monsters? And between Mina telling Moon she is letting Eclipsa and Globgor off too easy, and Mina's Solarians pledging an oath to Queen Solaria that lasts beyond her death, she is an even bigger grudge-holder than Moon herself. The only bright spot here is that Hekapoo turned her back on the Magical High Commission after they celebrated Mina chasing out the monsters, since they lost any kindness that they had in the previous seasons. In The Tavern At The End of The Multiverse, the argument between Star, Moon and Eclipsa continues. 80% of this penultimate half-hour before the last episode in this 5-part series finale is just them arguing about Mina while Marco stands by, waiting to have a part in this story again, and that is very bad. Eclipsa is happy that Moon got Rhombulus to free Globgor for her, without knowing Moon had ill intentions to hope Globgor would wreak havoc and make everyone hate Eclipsa again. The worst part - Star Butterfly's cheery, perky self is no more and everything is worse now. Everything that went wrong between Moon, Rhombulus, Eclipsa, and Mina broke Star and got her to hate magic, when she used to love magic because it livened things up for her friends on Earth. She thinks the best solution to save the monsters from Mina is to destroy the magic just because some people use it irresponsibly, regardless of what magical creatures would be killed in the process and ruining magic for everyone else more responsible with it. All I can say is: DID YOU ALL TAKE STUPID PILLS THIS MORNING, WRITERS?
