#Voltron season 6

[mordorinmind]

Curently rewatching Voltron for the last time and man. The Black Paladins episode is my 13th reason. The way Keith had to fight his brother in life/death situation and then had to led the rest to fight with Lotor. And NO ONE GAVE A SHIT. 13TH FUCKING REASON .

[disgruntled-screaming]

As my rewatch of Voltron season 6 comes to a close, here are my thoughts on it. Mind you, as I'm writing this, it is past midnight. I took my medication, and one of the pills I take makes me a bit sleepy. I wholeheartedly apologize for any repeated sentences, nonsensical phrases, poor spelling of certain words, and poor grammar.

Keith and Krolia's adventure to the area where the other Alteans are should have been at least two episodes - there are moments that should have been more fleshed out, but were unfortunately cut short by production, and possibly absences of Steven Yuen since he is a popular actor in both America and South Korea

Season 6 was ordered, it started production with a certain number of episodes, then one of the suits decided to cut down on the number of episodes - that explains the weird montages

Monsters and Mana, while the best episode of the season (and I stand by it) was definitely written as either a needed filler episode (which is fine) or a special episode to release between season 6 and season 7

Anything that I said about Lotor, in terms of how he ruined Allura's character, is wrong. Allura is just not a good character in this season. I can understand that she needs that connection to her people, and Lotor is able to help her. But I genuinely stand with Lance when comes to not trusting Lotor, since he could not shut the ever loving fuck up about their fathers being friends. My brother in Christ, Lotor, we fucking get it. Your dad and her dad rubbed elbows.

The kiss shared between Lotor and Allura still makes me gag. Nothing against the shippers of this specific ship. I just hate Lotor and how he manipulated Allura. I've been through my own kind of manipulation, so I can't seem to like the character as a person.

I am still right in the theory that Lance and Shiro's relationship was supposed to be important. As much as I adore the fight that Keith has with Kuron, and he tries to being Shiro back and Keith says "I love you", shocking the clone enough for Keith to get the final blow... Lance was given the shaft once again. I could try to work with this in my fix it fic, despite sacrificing my favorite moment in the finale. I'm still outlining my fic, and still on chapter 1, so only time will tell.

That Galra robot that was programmed to have fun was amazing and the scene of it being tied to a rocket getting shot into space as Amazing Grace played in the background is iconic and I wish people talked about it more. Because it was insanely funny and I loved it too much. Fly high, random robot. I will always love you.

Despite me bashing Lotor for all that he is, I will still say that he is a well written character that I would love to punch in the face. Unfortunately he is like 7ft tall, and I am the same height as Krillin from DBZ. So I'm either going to have to learn how to do a Shoryuken a la Street Fighter.

As much as I love the finale of Season 6, I genuinely have to say that Keith's inclusion after being away from Team Voltron just seems convenient.

The Black Lion is the most disloyal bitch I have ever seen. I love the Black Lion's design, as I should. I'm a basic Voltron: Legendary Defender fan. But the Black Lion instantly took Keith back after leaving the team to be with the Blade of Marmora. Also the Black Lion had no problem with Kuron after a certain point, which is stupid. How dare it not be a continuous struggle for Kuron to gain its trust. Then again, this is the same lion that was still loyal to Zarkon despite the fact that Zarkon was evil. Never understood why Zarkon's bond with the Black Lion was so strong when Shiro proved himself to be the better paladin, but that's none of my business at this time.

I personally felt like the Blade of Marmora overstayed their welcome after a certain point. This could just be a me problem, and I am wholeheartedly willing to be the only person on this hill.

Coran is consistently amazing.

I don't know when the writers started making Hunk more of a tech savy character (I genuinely have no idea), but it's quite eye opening when you notice the change in archetypes.

Matt is still an okay character to me. When he was revealed, a good chunk of the fanbase was madly in love with him, which I understand, but I just look at him and shrug.

Keith if he was included in the Monsters & Mana game in S6E3

Voltron season 6 is genuinely one of the best seasons of television I’ve ever seen

I genuinely don’t know how they thought they could top that season

[aro-paladin-pidge]

I can finally make polls!

just found out my man Shiro was dead for 4 whole seasons

I FIGURED OUT LOTORS ORIGINAL PLOT

okay so this is just a theory, but i was thinking about it, and i have a feeling that i am somewhat correct.

this is the what lotor was actually doing at the colony:

yes, he technically “killed” those alteans. i think that they were in a type of death like stasis and that’s why bandor thought he was killing them. BUT. i have a theory that they weren’t supposed to stay dead.

i think lotor took their quintessence because he didn’t have a way into the quintessence field yet. he needed it right away and fast to keep the empire going. BUT. i don’t think he intended to just straight up leave them dead in a pod.

it was proven in season 6 that quintessence can bring someone back from the brink of death, example allura healing lance after pretty much dying from an electric shock.

i think lotors plan was to use the alteans temporarily, and then once he got access to his unlimited quintessence, restore them. they were never supposed to stay dead/on the brink of death.

lotor also states “we’re a few lives lost in the process? yes.” and we clearly see HUNDREDS of alteans still in the tubes. i have a feeling he’s referring to people who Actually died from this experiment and not the people in the tubes he was going to restore.

i’m typing this fast so hopefully it makes sense, but if this was not lotors original plan, i don’t know what was. just straight up killing his race for a dumb reason is out of character. this makes more sense to me, especially since his whole mission was preserving life.

Sad headcanon time. After being brought back to life by Allura, Lance can hear the mice. The image speaks for itself.

Shiro can too, but he doesn’t know he’s not the only one.

[klanced]

I never finished Voltron and now it’s leaving Netflix on Friday so I’ve spent the past week rewatching the show.

I’m on Season 6, I should finish my Thursday night barring any unforeseen circumstances.

Honestly? The show is still pretty good from what I remember. I *think* I never finished Season 8 because when it came out I saw a bunch of people say they didn’t like the finale so that kinda killed my motivation to finish it.

Hopefully I can finish it this time around since I’m going in knowing what I’m getting into.

[disgruntled-screaming]

Somehow got better. Finishing up Season 6.

Lotor shouldn't know anything about Honerva drawing her last breath because he was born after Honerva turned into Haggar. That was literally shown in earlier seasons. Unless we as the audience are to believe that there was still a little bit of Honerva left when she was pregnant with Lotor, which doesn't make sense given the actual flashbacks we were shown in the seasons prior.

I could be wrong on this, but please forgive me. I am doing too much for a stupid fix it fic. But it's my stupid fix it fic.

Also the virus coming from Shiro's arm is a nice touch. Literally forgot about that little plot point and mistakenly blamed Lotor for it, thinking that he was playing 4D chess once again.

[mauvemischief]

the Broganes will never not fuck me up to literally the highest degree

[rulesofdisorder]

thinking about voltron in the year 2023 i know i know BUT i can’t stop thinking about how the creators caught on to the fact that we caught on to the klance queerbaiting so they had the masterclass idea to introduce NEW queerbaiting with shiro and adam and we fell for it AGAIN despite ALL OF THE SIGNS

i still can’t believe it. they announced that shiro was gay and had a fiancé at a con, made the only scene between the two of them a breakup scene, and THEN they had adam die offscreen and just played a flashback of it right before shiro got back to earth. insanity. i’ve thought about this every day for weeks.
