Oh, I've been watching a few episodes. The series concerns a princess, Star Butterfly, who hails from a dimension known as Mewni. She inherits her wand from her mother, though to say that she's reckless with her wand is an understatment. Anyway, she gets sent to Earth to live with the Diaz family. Her best friend is Marco Diaz, who takes classes in martial arts. The antagonist (though I'm using the term loosely) is Ludo, who wishes to obtain Star's wand so that he could become extremely powerful.

Anyway, I absolutely love Toffee. A lizard man, he's manipulative and a smooth talker, as evidenced by him tricking Ludo into hiring him, as well as when he manipulates the other monsters into throwing Ludo out of his own castle. Another thing about Toffee is that he is calm and composed, choosing to analyze Star behind the scenes than immediately confronting her. A major power that Toffee has is his ability to regenerate severed limbs. Not only this, but he actually succeeds in getting Star's wand destroyed, though admitedly, she only gave him the wand so that Marco would be spared.

Toffee is, thus far, an enigmatic character. He acquired knowledge on magic through unknown means, and he seems to be formerly acquainted with the royal family. A few theories have been posited that state that Toffee might have been around during the time of Mewnidpendence Day, which revolves around Mewni settlers committing genocide on the monsters, even though the monsters were at an unfair advantage. Either that, or Toffee was a descendant of one of teh original monsters that were killed in the war. The reason as to why he was wanting Star's wand destroyed is currently unknown. What's rather peculiar is the smile that Toffee displayed before the wand exploded seemed to suggest that Toffee was expecting it to do so. He appears to die at the end of the second finale, though this is debatable, because if you were paying attention earlier, Toffee was missing a finger. Now, remember that Toffee has the ability to regenerate. So, who's to say that he would not only come back, but possibly stronger than ever?

I would recommend this show to fill in that Gravity Falls void, mostly because of its use of multiple dimensions reminds me of the Nightmare Realm. Toffee appears sometime later in the first season, but trust me, he deserves second place in my blog.
