You know it's bad when the son of an empire built in blood and enslavement has to call you out on being racist

#allura racism arc #allura vld #vld #voltron #lotor deserved better #vld lotor #i swear what were they thinking with the season six lotor evil reveal #it made no sense in the context of the show except for “his whole family evil” like what

My arts definitely not from the American anime style. Cause I hate that. I’m so sorry I hate a lot of shows that try to do anime inspired stuff cause I feel some of them just fuck up so badly. We need more stuff inspired by anime in the way bad guys was inspired by anime and less shit like voltron

#voltron especially it drives me insane #my friend made me watch six seasons of the show cause he was like no no stick to it it gets better stick to it #and once I got to early season 7 I was like. i have not been enjoying any of this #maidsmess

Do you ever randomly decide to watch Voltron AMVs only to end up crying over Sheith and wondering how the fuck they didn’t become canon? Because that’s where I’m at right now.

#sorry this is not for people who dislike sheith #this is solely for those of us who watched six straight seasons of two people being built up #as the most important persons in each other’s lives #and for one of them to be confirmed as same-gender-attracted #only for the last season to throw it all out the window pretend it never happened and marry the confirmed-queer guy off to a side character #i will forever be mad about this #voltron legendary defender #vld #sheith #marijn talks #marijn rambles in the tags #if my tags seem overly aggressive i apologize #i survived the last year or so of the vld fandom’s bs and it left scars #*sigh* time to go read fix it fics…

[friendofthecrows]

I spend a lot of time thinking about the media I got bored of and stopped watching right before some big discourse happened about it being problematic and being like "glad I dodged that bullet." And then I remember I watched Voltron until the end.

#hal rambles #humour #shitpost #voltron #fandom #tumblr #i actually still think the first several seasons are good #the last one was just ... #did they think about how that would be received AT ALL #the discource it caused literally made me stop engaging in fandom for six months

A Fight He Didn't Want (April 21, 2024)

“I’m sorry,” Lance’s breath was warm on the back of his ear. “I’m sorry, Keith. That you had to do that. I, I know it must have been so hard and… and scary.” He let out a huff. “I know I’d be scared.”

Lance’s arms tightened.

“But… but no matter how hard it was and how scared you were… you did it. You brought Shiro back, Keith. You saved him. He’s… he’s going to be okay now, because of you. He did listen to you when, when he couldn’t hear any of us."

Bro why the fuck does this thing look better than it did in the actual show? It's usually the other way around.

#Wack to get an expensive ass collections figure of the VLD Voltron this long after the show crashed and burned #If this came about within the first six seasons I'd get it the show was good then #But NOW? #I don't know #If I had the money I'd buy it though this thing looks cool as fuck

I lied. I don’t like sex. Put your clothes back on. I’m gonna explain how releasing multiple seasons a year ruined voltron: legendary defenders

this was originally a twitter thread but it is truly how i feel about the entire series as a whole. all this to say these are my own thoughts and opinions.

--------

typically a show takes at least a year or so in production; making sure story lines make sense, characters are able to be developed instead of being flat (which happened to a lot of voltron characters ;-; but the characters are amazing) and to smooth out any wrinkle or hiccups. 

In doing 8 seasons in two years the writers were not given the ample amount of time to smooth out the wrinkles and to give us a fully fleshed out piece of work. Take for example Bojack Horseman. The show ran from 2014 to 2020 and it only had six seasons. in these six seasons tho the writers were able to tell an amply dark story but also giving us in depth backgrounds of the characters and we watched the characters grow and change (for better or for worse). the writers were given time to be able to tell that story and is why Bojack is highly praised. 

the voltron writers were not given the same treatment, instead they were rushed to give us 8 seasons in such a short time (this isnt taking account the poor animation team which was probably being worked to the bone bc its no joke animating tbh). 

Instead of characters that we see grow and change over the seasons, there was only like one person to have a charcter arc (pidge) and the character was hated on because of it. 

Like Lance got barely ANY character arc, he stayed the same throughout the entire show and we really never saw him grow and realize his own potential and no longer be insecure and feel like the seventh wheel of voltron. 

this can also explain why adam was introduced and killed off so quickly, there was just not enough time to even give shiro a proper backstory episode to show him making the decision to go to kerberos. 

Each of the seasons were also short and have little episodes because of the rush. I mean we saw lotor get a redemption arc and then it suddenly is thrown away so that haggar can be redeemed which made zero sense for her character.

if the writers and animators and the rest of the team were given rest time in between the seasons we would of seen an entirely different show (now that can also be false but im sticking to it could of been better) we could of seen each character grow and change and even get backstories for everyone.

i would of loved to see more garrison days of everyone and to see allura's life before Altea was destroyed (plus we could of gotten more fun filler episodes like monsters and mana where we see the characters personalities better).

people hated season eight and rightfully so, i cannot blame them. For lance to go back to farming with his family in cuba which has extremely racist undertones and for allura (the only black character) to be killed off does not also look good either.

allura didnt even have to die and for her to sacrifice herself just doesnt feel right. i understand fully that the show was EXTREMELY popular and the demand to get more episodes was at an all time high, but it was absolutely foolish and borderline amateur hour to rush production.

which is crazy because some of these show runners worked on amazing shows like avatar and korra. i know a lot of people who loved voltron feel betrayed by the eighth season and stopped participating in the fandom overall because of the betrayal they felt.

i feel like now a lot of times we as a fandom forget about this bc its been a few years since the finale and a lot of us rather use our own headcanons and fanon rather than the actual canon because it gave us nothing at all except for amazing characters.

okay to end this rant, the show feels half baked due to the way the production was rushed to get out these eight seasons in two years. if the writers were given the time (which honestly the show would probs still be going on now as we speak in the year of our gods 2022), the show could have lived up to its actual potential instead of being a dumpster fire (i use that lovingly but also not) we would of seen growth and change in characters and a lot of things we hated would of never of happened potentially. 

so yeah, thats my rant on the destruction of voltron. thanks for coming to my ted talk

#voltron #vld #this is my magnum opus of explanations #the whole production of voltron consumed me for months which is why i feel this way #i wish things were different #takashi shirogane #adam w #allura #pidge #lance mcclain

I was having a conversation with a friend and the topic of Lance and Keith’s height came up. It kinda turned into an argument on who was actually taller and this friend had at most seen three episodes when I’ve seen about four seasons of the show.

She was saying that Lance was shorter than Keith when I and other Voltron fans know for sure that ain’t true. Keith is about 5’9-5’10 because he’s a couple inches shorter than Shiro who is about 6’0-6’1.

Lance is similarly in height with Shiro so in conclusion, Lance is a six foot beanstalk. Anyone who thought Lance was around or taller than six foot is correct about his height.

If anyone goes around saying that he’s five foot then he must be slightly slouching his shoulders. I sternly believe that he’s not in the five foot category.

I should not care about a show that ended many years ago, nor of a couple that probably was never supposed to be together, yet, I shall persist to do so until my mind is settled.

Beware: Voltron Spoilers Ahead

I would definitely need to rewatch Voltron if I wanted to write any fics for Klance nowadays, but everything that went down in the later seasons really makes me not like that idea.

I'll be honest, I don't remember any that happens after season six, my brain blacked those out completely to save me from my heartache and a rage induced coma. (I care too much, I know)

Why have Allura and Lance end up together only to kill her in the end? To hurt Lance? To hurt the audience? Frankly, all you did was annoy and upset us.

Seeing scenes or mentions of later season stuff happening (like what happened with Allura in the end) makes me see red. And with what happened with Lance and Allura happening before hand, feels like a slap in the face, especially having Shiro briefly shown at his own wedding, married a man? To someone we knew NOTHING about and have zero connection to?

Why did you accept that but not Klance?

What was the point have all those scenes with Lance and Keith if they weren't going to be together? Was it really only for friendship and team connection? If so, explain why Keith didn't have those connections with anyone else, besides Shiro. Though you will not convince me of those two being anything besides having a brother/cousin dynamic.

Maybe it's been too long ago and I'm looking at it through dented red colored glasses, but I remember loving the idea of Klance being together since the very beginning.

I'll rewatch the early ones and write fluff and them getting together out of spite to the writers who did us dirty.

I think I'll just live in my little fanon fantasy where Klance does happen and they live happily ever after. And thanks to fanfiction, I can do just that.

It's not about that Klance didn't become canon, rather, it's about the potential they had that is now wasted.

Okokok

So I just binged the first six seasons of Voltron: Legendary Defender, and I need to scream about how much I would die for Keith.

Like, Im ace. But not for Keith.
