For all fans of voltron
This is a message for everyone
After season 7 I will also leave the fandom .... but not for the reasons that you believe.
You want to stop watching the show because Klance is not canon ?! Because Axca could have a crush for keith ?! Because a character you liked without really knowing him is dead?!?!
Voltron Legendary Defender tells the story of teenagers and young adults discovering space lions and engaging in a war against aliens seeking to conquer the galaxy
This is not the FUCKING Love Story of Lance and Keith: The Serie !!
I understand that you can be disappointed but if on 13 epic episodes you remember only the elements mentioned above and that you go away because of that....
First, it's not you who decide the rest of the events of the show and then ... well ... GO AWAY !!! It will be good for everyone and Voltron deserves better as fans than aggressive idiots who are never happy of what they are given and whose only purpose is to see their ship become canon.
I'm sorry if I hurt more than one but some people should really question themselves (I'm talking to you) ... are you really REAL fans, I do not have the impression and if you want to leave like me, do it, but grow up and stop driving like spoiled rotten kids!
Dreamworks has brought you a great science fiction serie, BEAUTIFUL in the form, with endearing and intricate characters, epic battles, moving and funny moments, an eventful storyline and even a confirmed Lgbt couple for everyone to relate to... ( on 7 important characters ( paladins, coran and allura) one is canonically gay which is more than 14% of the group: it is perfectly realistic, not worth to imagine that all the characters are gay it would not have neither sense nor logic )...
..... and you are not happy, WORST you only see the evil and criticize it constantly.
Voltron owes you nothing and you are just ungrateful and aggressive towards the serie, the doublers, the staff and dreamworks that made you dream ...
I do not understand....
Feeling guilty
I don't know but I feel bad for shipping Shance when Shiro literally had (has?) a fiancé on earth... I'm like, "he's probably still in love with Adam... He's definitely still in love with Adam." But then it changes to, "I still ship Shance! Adam's probably in the past." Like, nothing can get in the way of Shance! Shance all the way!
I mean, I don't know if I should just ship what I like to ship or just slowly back away... To be honest, I might join some of the others and just ship Lance with Shiro and Adam.
before you all flip your shit
“they killed off our lgbt rep!”
adam isn’t the rep, shiro is
they briefly introduced adam so they could properly discuss him in season 8 when they have the time (it’s a common thing to see in tv shows and literature)
shiro didn’t stop being gay because he lost adam
adam’s death wasn’t pointles
“season 7 was disappointing”
hunk got the arc we’ve been waiting for
the galra were defeated
they finally returned to earth
lance got to see his familly!!! aaaa!!!
space??? lesbians??? hello??? sign me the fuck up???
matt with a ponytail (+ an alien girlfriend fuck yeah)
keith with a ponytail (+ a pacifier and the purest fucking puppy eyes)
high quality klance interactions (lance is Whipped)
keith sliced sendak like a hot knife to soft butter
sniper!!! fucking!!! lance!!! has returned!!! (and keith totally knows he’s the team sharpshooter fuck me up)
lotor on the game show episode (is no one gonna talk about the dance he does)
veronica, griffin, kinkade, and the others all radiate bde and i love them all with my entire heart and soul
keith: “i love you, too, mom”
the game show episode in general
COLLEEN FUCKING HOLT
kosmo is an icon and keith loves that fuckin’ puppy oml he’s so soft
romelle is cute as fuck goddamn
that one heith moment (it was one of the popsicle things, btw)
hunay made a reappearance
punk had its moments uwu
hunelle has my ass
hunk is compatible with so many people wow
iverson and keith forgiving each other and that was just a great scene oml
keith: “yes, sir!” and he does the hand thing
coran in general
aLLURA TAKING OFF HER CROWN TO SAVE SHIRO DOES NO ONE WANNA TALK ABOUT MY MOTHER OMG THAT SCENE HAS MY ASS
axca is CUTE i don’t ship her with keith but dAMN I LOVE HER
tHE ATLAS AND SHIRO’S MOMENT WHEN HE MAKES IT VOLTRON x10 WHAT THE FUCK THAT WAS SO COOL
the aNIMATION IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT HOW GOOD IT WAS
everything about that season is just… mWAH
“they queerbaited us, they’re homophobic, it was an advertising scheme”
they know what they’re doing, these writers are talented as hell
they know how important rep is to us, and it’s obviously important to them too
season 7 was about saving the earth and winning the war against the galra, they didn’t have time to talk about past relationships
introducing adam wouldn’t seem that important to someone who doesn’t keep up with the social media, but it’s paving the way for season 8
allurance and axca x keith are so forced and sudden that i’m almost certain the forced nature of it is intentional, they’re setting something up for season 8
bex is lgbt, the crew is full of allies, they wouldn’t let queerbaiting happen
season 7 happened so we could have some peace and time for personal subjects to be brought up in season 8 (i.e. romance, lance’s bi arc, shiro mourning adam, etc)
season 8 is still going to happen, don’t give up hope yet, the story isn’t finished
they knew people would leave/want to leave the fandom after season 7, but that just goes to show that they have something that would make us really happy in season 8 because they’re smart and know what the fans want
adam’s death was so much of a small deal that i know they weren’t finished talking about adam, they’ll address him in season 8
don’t give up. there’s still hope, and the story isn’t over yet. season 8 is going to address all of our concerns, answer all of our questions, and snatch all of our weaves.
what if voltron was just a really long dnd campaign
Word(s): Bonding Moment
oh my god? This episode looks so wild already asdfjkj
S8 Thoughts
I’ve been reading a lot of posts about a lot of unhappy people who watched the season, and didn’t like how certain things went. (I’m trying really hard not to spoil things, but it is tumblr and things are everywhere)
But one thing someone pointed out, that at Shiro’s wedding, behind Shiro and Curtis, when Curtis yanks Shiro closer, we see what I think is Keith standing behind Shiro with his arms crossed. Everyone assumes he’s all pissed because Shiro’s getting married to someone other than him. He’s all bitter because Shiro, the one who he fell and almost died for is marrying someone from the Atlas crew. Honestly, in all honesty, I feel like Keith wouldn’t be bitter, he saw Shiro as a brotherly figure, not a lover. His arms might be crossed, but my thought, he’s stuck in some stiff suit or clothes he wouldn’t ever wear, and wouldn’t be comfortable in. All in all, I think Keith is just hella uncomfortable being there, because he’s prolly in a suit that he wont ever wear again. Also, weddings, no matter who’s it is, are uncomfortable as all hell- wearing clothes you probably wont ever look at again that are stiff and uncomfortable, (This might also be my dislike of huge gatherings showing through) ANYWAY, I know a lot of shippers are all up in arms about it because it should be Keef or even it should be Adam because reasons x, y and z. It would have been nice if Shiro had the chance to have some closure with Adam (and not just his plaque) and be able to move on with a clear head. I mean, he was still able to move on, which I’m so proud of him for. This man has been through hell, and he has the scars to prove it. How long has he been in space? How long was he with the Galra again? Where they took his friggin arm? Being isolated as a prisoner, and being used for gladiatorial fights will change a man. (Not that I know what it’s like being in a gladiator situation, but I imagine with how long he was there and with all they did to him it was going to be a life changing experience.)
The fact that Shiro managed to find love in someone like Curtis, and be able to get married, and move on with his life, instead of dwelling on the bad, and feeling sorry for himself, I cant hide my pride for him. He gave himself the chance to find love again, and go to live a probably quieter life, away from the conflict that had torn at him for years. Dreams change, wants change, people change.
I love this show, I love the characters, the music, the giant robot(s), and all it did. If I didn’t give this show a watch, I wouldn’t have drawn a lot of what I did in October, or before, and I would probably be a much unhappier person.
I know I’ve said this in posts in the past, but I love what the whole Voltron team did to bring this together. To JDS, LM, and all of the other producers, thank you for making such a great show with some of my favorite animation I’ve seen in awhile.
word vomit over.
(just kidding i just realized that with this show over, it’ll be harder to see the other cast/crew members at conventions in my area T^T)
