This...actually makes a lot of sense.

Starlight is a lot like Urd from "Oh My Goddess", in a constant struggle between her "demon" half and her "angel" half, but always managing to have the "angel" half come out on top.

And just like Urd, that demon half had to come from somewhere. Namely, from someone who is all "demon".

So, Starlight's parents running a hellish town of their own makes sense. It ties with the theme of the episode: Starlight used to be a monster, but she wasn't born a monster, she was made a monster. And her parents are the ones who made her a monster.

Overall, this is shaping to be one of the best episodes of the season.
