- Teen Titans Starfire's Dark Origin Story...Analyzing Her Toxic Relationship With Her Sister Blackfire...
Starfire had one of the more disturbing back stories out of any of her fellow Titans. And to think that they delved into this storyline in a children’s cartoon, is almost mind-blowing. But I guess that’s why Teen Titans is one of the best Cartoon Network series of ALL TIME. Teen Titans is a show that was full of toxic relationships. But none of them take the cake like Star’s relationship with her sister Blackfire. Looking back at it as an adult, their whole family situation seems brutal and frankly, hits differently.

You also forgot she was called the equivalent of a racial slur by her own race.
Not in the cartoon, unless you mean the episode Troq. But that was a different alien calling her a slur.
@@rosestar1324 Oh
Coming from someone who is so bright her backstory is wicked dark.
We don't want it to change us so we be extra nice... Being changed in the process...
Because... It is fake... I'm not really this happy...
Black Fire was Like The Azula of Avatar as Iroh said to Zuko she’s crazy and needs to go down
and just like Azula, many
many
MANY people simped for her
@@alakazamlover4908😂lol
@@moredsea well am I wrong??
@@alakazamlover4908well to answer your question i think when her character first came out and everyone was like 8 years old and her character was 13 yeah they might have simped for her. But now as Adults i think they simp for the 18-38 versions of her from fan art lol 😂
Very accurate on Blackfire and Trigon is a terrible father to Raven like Ozai is to Zuko
I wish that Blackfire appeared in more episodes. I would have love to have seen an episode where her and starfire finally were able to make peace with each other.
Lauren Faust's DC super hero girl high school series does do something like that, said series is vaguely more like the comic though, with blackfire being unable to fly
The connection about Starfire's past could been a great character for her for season 6 😭
Yeahhh especially since each season had an individual focus on a different Titan, with season 2 focusing on the introduction of Terra and her betrayal. Season 6 could’ve easily been for Starfire and probably was intended to before getting cancelled.
honestly, Starfire and Blackfire would've been such a good team if the Gordanians never interfered
and despite all the awful things that happened to Star, I kinda feel bad for Blackfire aswell. She had to sell her sister to a rival alien race to stop a war and accidentally killed her parents in the process... most of her "evilness" probably comes from being born into a war and never having the chance to leave like Star did, it's all just acts of defense.
I thought there was some other source i read where blackfire chose to use startfire as an outlet to lash out her emotions on. Was it possible too (even though it wasnt stated in the video nor in the series) again a possibility that blackfire was treated badly due to the deal that she looked nothing like her family nor anyone else on the planet? While it could be possible that she was treated badly since she was the only one there who had black eyes, black hair, and when seeing her activate you see purple instead of green...like starfire and wlidfire. Again im only asking since all the others including starfire had Red hair, Green eyes, when seeing powers activate it was green. Was there somewhere along the lines of the home planet they treated blackfire as an outcast just based off of how she looked? I will still say it doesnt excuse her from her actions at all. If this was something then she couldve found a way to reach out to her sister than of using her as a physical and emotional punching bag as she pleased.
@@P.l.R we'll never truley know since OG TT got cancelled
I don't have the full context of the comic, but the bits he showed made it seem like Blackfire wasn't exactly torn up about selling her sister. Seemed like she was jealous of the attention Starfire got and simply wanted to pick on her. But that 'picking' got more intense as the girls got older and Blackfire essentially became cruel and inhumane
@@demonprincess9680 in other words: their father just messed it all up because he didn't want to miss a ceremony date
@@Xeorboom Is that the context I don't have?
When Starfire told Robin to leave her alone after she learned English I don't think she was talking about blackfire I think she meant the gordanians would destroy Earth should they help her which they later tried to do using a gigantic particle weapon until the Titans stopped them
If i'm remembering correctly wasn't it Blackfire who originally sold out Tamaran to the Gordainians (probably for power?) and caused the war in the first place? Plus Tamaran used to be a thriving planet of plant life before the attack meaning she pretty much destroyed her planet too (when you see how it is now)
But fortunately Wildfire is technically still alive, canonically he's off with some intergalactic superhero team fighting the Gordainians so hopefully the siblings will meet again someday
I wish I could meet Starfire, just a bright gal despite her backstory, plus her broken english just fun to listen to.
Robin has many girlfriends. He's a real lady's man.
I'm glad you're doing an in depth dive into the teen titans and references to the go comic are being used, I think u should continue with these, I saw u had done Raven and Terra too, still I think u should do videos for the titans ( beast boy, cyborg and maybe a video of the titan the cartoon or go comic never covers in detail -being Jericho and how his sister was seen in the go comic)
Teen Titans was very influenced by anime, to the point that after cartoon network aired "Fooly Cooly" , Teen Titans adapted some it's style into the show.
Why was Blackfire so spiteful towards her little sister? What did her and Starfire's parents do to pit the two girls against each other?
Excellent question in the comics the show is based on blackfire was unable to fly and because the citadel attacked her planning on the day of her birth it caused people to think she was a bad omen and finally she was passed over as heir to the throne in favor of her sister who has the ability to fly. But in this continuity the comics that explains Starfire's origin and involving her long-lost brother wildfire reveals black fire was always jealous of her younger siblings Starfire for being more well-liked because she was pretty and nice and wildfire because even though he was youngest he would one day rule the planet. Which makes her come off as even more petty than her original comic counterpart who might be even more darker but someone sympathetic.
I never really liked blackfire it was bad enough she sold her sister to the gordanians in the first place which ironically led to the formation of the teen Titans and I was patient during her visit to Earth where she tried to frame Starfire but what really crossed the line with me was trying to force her sister into an arranged marriage under the lie that it's to prevent a war and I'm pretty sure blackfire was aware of her feelings for Robin and the fact that she tried doing this after her parents died of grief it seemed like blackfire doesn't care about anyone but herself it wasn't even explained in the show why she hated Starfire so much but in the comics of the older teen Titans it was because she was passed over as ruler I don't know what their parents could have been like to cause blackfire to act this way but I still find her actions inexcusable which is why I was pleased when the comic involving wildfire showed her disowning blackfire although she did look genuinely sad about it maybe one day blackfire will get a redemption too bad the shows canceled though since Starfire is the only Titan to not get her own arc
I used to get the Teen Titans Go comics in the mail when I was a kid and I have the one that mentions Wildfire. Starfire actually reunites with him for a day but then it’s revealed that he was Madame Rouge in disguise. Blackfire teamed up with her and provided a description of what Wildfire might currently look like so she could sneak into the tower and destroy the titans.
what if codename:knd seem to be the version of the teen titans only much older than before and wiser
Starfire is so cute and pretty
Man I miss this show so much 😢😢
I wanted to see Starfire's ''baby brother'' Wildfire. Starfire disowns Blackfire and calls Wildfire her (only) family.
1:05. I fail to understand why you would be taken aback from Starfire getting married and never coming back. We all know she wouldn’t leave the team because something will happen at the end of the episode where she would remain on earth. It’s not something to be taken aback about.
Maybe they were a kid at the time. I was 9 or 10 when the episode in question came out and while I was not taken aback during that episode, I do remember there being episodes that it was obvious nothing was gonna happen but I still got worried over anyways.
Video: “Starfire has the most disturbing backstory out of all the other Titans?”
Me, who read the Wolfman/Perez comics: “Oh you just BARELY scratch the surface there, kid. Like retroactively Kory has the worst parents of the Titans; yes more so than both Raven and Jericho’s parents who at least are self-admitted villains.”
That's just your opinion, and you're insulting him for that.
@@ronanjager3829 Oh no its a fact. Starfire story in the comics is a lot worse and more complex than what the cartoons presented.
Seriously all the lore involving the Citadel, the Omega Men and aliens in the Vega System could give Dune a run for its money.
First of all, quoting yourself. Tf kinda cringy RP garbage is this? Second of all, calling a grown man a kid because he made a claim about a fictional character. Creep.
Let's see blame their eldest for a war, hate their daughter's not dating someone of noble blood, sold both of their daughters as slaves, is there sth I missed
@@mariusconstantin6057during the experiments that gave her her powers, she was also molested if i remember correctly
Starfire comic book counterpart story more worse.
Also not possible to be portrayed on a Cartoon Network show.
@@MichaelJW72 Actually it is, especially considering what kind of stuff is depicted in the show Justice League which aired the same time as Teen Titans.
Wildfire should have been in the show
Wish cartoons would go back to stuff like this, instead of the brain rot they air nowadays.
But...engaging content costs money,it's just cheaper to keep crass 6 minute dopamine hits!! [Nothing against the episodic formula obvi,the execution of it to me these days is hit or miss imo]
I think the show was too short. They should've included more stuff from the comic into the show. And this was the main version I watched over a lot of DC's reboots. I didn't even know Starfire had a brother. They left so much out of the show the I would've loved to see
Such assame Star Fire never got her own main plot for a seaaon.
U should see the comics
Her relationship with Blackfire is really messed up for sure,but calling it the "worse family dynamic" in the team is a stretch when we have Raven, who was "destined" to be possesed by her demonic father and be forced to destroy the world.
theres a new comic for 2003 titans called clashing colors so i might come back animated
Blackfire is so cruel
What do the comics say about their relationship?
