First time watching Voltron: Legendary Defender and documenting my thoughts

This is Season 4

S1-2 | S3 | S5 | S6 | S7 | S8 |

———————————————————————

<this one is going to be shorter, as I have only recently finished this season, and the grief is still fresh (lol), so the thoughts are only just starting to simmer. strap your asses in>

Pre-Season 4 Thoughts

-> Keith joining the blades is going to be a huge plot device, I feel

-> PLEASE for the love of CHRIST let that poor little girl find her brother and father. If they are dead dreamworks better be ready to catch these hands

->I’ve heard people claim this is the “last good season”, but i stay strong 💪 and will watch till the end

->wouldn’t the paladin switch not make sense now? Cus shiro is back as the black paladin and it makes no sense for Lance to be red like it originally had? If anything, he should’ve gone back to blue, and Allura to red, because Allura is very accepting/encouraging of shiro’s role as leader. I guess they didn’t wanna do it all over again. But I digress 🤷‍♀️

->im gonna miss my Pookie (🤍❤️🤍)

Post-S4

->do they do this every two seasons?? Have an epic battle where they have a big preparation and say it’ll 100% end the war but it doesn’t and something crazy happens after they win and it sets up the next season??

->FUCK YEAH PIDGE GOT HER BROTHER BACK IM SCREAMING CRYING THROWING UP 💪💪🔥🔥‼️‼️‼️🙏🙏🙏🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️

->^genuinely cried so hard during this scene. would’ve cried more if I wasn’t recovering from the initial shock.

->^cried during this one too, but it was happy tears. I could actually just do a whole reaction post to this episode alone. (if you want me to js say so in the rbs/replies)

->the callback to s1! “color-coded of course, because what are we? animals?” AHHH! I’m going insane I love these siblings sooooo much

->okay I’ll stop gushing over them now

->^only valid reaction to meeting Allura. Homegirl is beauty incarnate

->I LIED. im not sorry im never shutting up about them. SHE SHOWS HIM AROUND THE CASTLE AND TELLS HIM EVERYTHING AND EVERY DETAIL AND SHES SO EXCITED CUS SHE JUST GOT HER BRO BACK AND IS JUST RAMBLING ABOUT HER NEW HOME AND ALL THE COOL STUFF SHES BEEN DOING AND HES JUST LISTENING AND IS SUPER EXCITED WITH HER AND ITS SOOOO AMAZING AND ADORABLE AND I COULD DIE

->AND THEN HE TELLS HER HOW THEIR DAD WOULD BE SO PROUD IM DYING IM LITERALLY DEAD STOP.

->AND AND AND THEY WERE ALL WORKING TOGETHER W HUNK TO MAKE THE GALRA TRACKER THING AND THEY WERE BEING SO COOL WITH EACH OTHER AND BEING NERDS TOGETHER AND AND AND AJEUWNDUWJEBEURBDGWUDKAODHD

->okay. ive calmed down. i am normal and can be trusted to simply watch a show.

->^Get his ass, Zarkon. I needed his smug ass to be humbled so bad. Only time I will agree w Zarkon fr.

->i do NOT like Lotor. Can you guys tell already??

->THE SCENE WHERE THEY TRIED TO GET MILKSHAKES AND WERE SHOCKED TO FIND OUT THAT YOU NEED TO MILK A COW STOP.✋ 😭. My high-score on the giggle-meter went up by 300%

->bro I SWEAR shiro looks different. there’s just something about him. the hair gets a pass cus how good of a haircut can you give yourself in space, yk? but that nose scar is definitely a different shade #notmyrodrickshiro

->THE VOLTRON SHOW.

->^Just. That entire episode. It’s getting a whole post actually I need to yap about it.

->^her armor is colored in a way which makes it look both pink and red while making it look like a trick of the light in a way to symbolize that she is acting as keith yet while being a paladin herself and that being unknown in the public eye and showing how they have to cover that up, any suspicion being thrown as a trick of the light. Oh vld animators ily 🫶

->on another note tho why do they always draw lance and shiro to have 30 pounds of ass. what.

->loved when those lesbians decided to take down lotor. Queen shit 💋 we stan 🙇‍♀️🙏

->Lotor is so stupid and pathetic and annoyingly smug and sus and admiral-zhao-y and I hate him but he’s SOOO FREAKING HOT and I can’t hate him completely because he’s so attractive but that just makes me wanna hate him more. He’s a walking red flag but the flag is heart-shaped and honestly idk what to do w that.

->^WHAT. stop. honestly that’s the real reason he was banned from the empire my ass would not want that fucking FREAK within a 30 light year radius of me either

-> while s3 was the klance season, s4 is apparently the allurance season, they have a lot of sweet moments. (granted all started by lance but still, you can almost see allura swooning)

->^pookie. what are you doing… pookie.. no. stop. i don’t like where this is going…

->^POOKIE NO. STOP. ✋ STOP. SAY SIKE RN.

->^oh thank fuck for Lotor.

->^^wait what. why Lotor.

->^^^heartbreaking: worst person you know doesn’t something good for once.

->he definitely wants something out of this. I don’t trust him.

These are thoughts I’ve had compiled for some time now. I will continue to post my thoughts on the tag “laura’s first vld”

I finished this season on 06/30/24. I am on S5E3 as of today (07/06/24)

if you had to pick a fav chapter out of any of the books, which would it be? (you can do one per book and/or multiple chapters lol just curious)

im answering this on mobile so if the formatting is fucked im sooooooooo sorry 😭 OK one per book here i go!!

cinder: the chapter where kai gifts her the silk gloves! mostly because during my reread i COMPLETELY FORGOT that this chapter happened and omfg the KAIDER in this scene was so intense. like kai’s thoughtfulness of the gift…like he never pushes her to take off her gloves but instead gifts her gloves that make her feel not only safe, but beautiful. literally on the verge of tears thinking about that scene because it was so tender and beautiful and like a testament of how much he thinks and CARES about cinder…also its his way of showing how much it matters to him that she attends the ball. like that scene makes me wanna SCREAM AND CRY AND CURL UP INTO A BALL!!! especially because of its cruel bittersweetness like kaider angst hits like nothing else…like i love kaider fluff but their angst…theres something in the sauce with them

scarlet: one chapter is so cruel for this one like the plot development in this book is probably the best bc of its pacing IMO like there are so many moments across the book that really make it SHINE BUT if its only one chapter it has to be the opening chapter where scarlet (bad bitch) gets up on the tavern bar and defends cinder!!! she is the ONLY character that takes into consideration and expresses empathy for cinder and her AGE and NEVER holds her cyborg or lunar status against her!!!! also the shirt comment in front of wolf is LMFAOOOOOOO LIKE NOBODY SAID THAT!!!!! but that is my favorite chapter. marissa meyer put her wrussy (writer pussy) into that one

cress: during my original read this was my FAVORITE but on reread this is now my least favorite book! too much cresswell not enough scarlet/winter or scarlet/wolf content. like marissa meyer did a great job giving us kaider angst and mutual pining but absolutely FLOPPED on the wolflet front like cmon girl. FAVORITE CHAPTER HMMMMMMMM its the one where cinder tortures thaumaturge sybil! its a testament to her growth and mastery of her glamour like she really is so powerful! i wished she used it more in winter TBH but yeah her torturing sybil was soooo satisfying and i wish she did it more. like she really is the GOAT

winter: okay this is gonna sound crazy but its tie between cinder throwing herself off the ledge into artemesia lake and cinder getting stabbed in the heart. I CAN EXPLAIN 😭 I AM NOT CRAZY!!! cinder herself off the ledge is absolutely FUCKING insane i won’t lie it makes me giggle cause like GIRL I GET IT BUT THROWING YOURSELF OFF A 5+ STORY BUILDING WAS NOT THE ANSWER!!!!! IT REALLY KILLED ME READING THAT LIKE CAN YOU IMAGINE WITNESSING YOUR GF THROW HERSELF INTO DEATH LIKE THAT….OKAY FOR THE OTHER SCENE i loved the cinder being stabbed in the heart scene which sounds SO fucked up but i liked it because marissa meyer did a phenomenal job carrying cinder’s voice and depicting the absolute exhaustion that cinder felt during that moment. like cinder was TIRED like she’s BEEN THRU IT!!! her getting stabbed in the heart was really a culmination of this pattern where cinder expresses kindness and forgiveness to those who’ve deeply harmed her and her showing levana empathy even after levana tried to MURDER her and everyone cinder loved is so…cinder is so selfless and loving and her getting stabbed was peak heartbreak (which i realize is a pattern. i loveeeee suffering) but also i desperately want to know how/why kai left behind the earthen leaders and how he FUCKING FOUND HER SO QUICKLY! also the fact that her last sight is of the boy she loved but she felt could never have just really makes me burst into tears like cinder baby girl if only knew how much YOU (not your princess or queen or fugitive status) were worth it to kai and everyone in the rampion crew GAH IM CRYING I JUST LOVE HER SO MUCH!!

I SOUND SOOOOO UNHINGED BUT THESE ARE MY FAVORITE CHAPTERS <3 CINDER BABY GIRL I LOVE YOU. i just love so crazy quickly deteriorating from wholesome kaider/wolflet to cinder just…suffering LMFAO

thank you for the ask!! <3

csm ch 145 liveblog !!!

ayyy let's go

damnnnn so public safety fucked up the csm church that fast huh.

and they're conscripting all the teens from the church into their ranks as interns vhbhaduhfsuaif literally stealing the cult's child labor forces lmfao

oh damnnn they know about yoru

oh damnnnnnnn they know how her powers work

I gotta say I have been wondering where public safety has been in this part. we haven't seen much of them until now...I did kinda miss them and their weird kinda scummy wildly varying vibes

'the devil name consultant' wtffff that's cool as hell please tell me more

them already talking abt the csm church in past tense makes me hmmmmmm...I feel like they aren't dead yet. specifically barem, he almost certainly has something more up his sleeve

DENJI SIGHTING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

barem bluescreen lmao

the way he's just getting arrested in broad daylight at this amusement park after he tried to orchestrate the killing of a bunch of children. I have to laugh

sexual assault-chan trying to recruit him lmao that seems to be the #1 way public safety gets employees these days.

or like, ever, honestly

oh damn oh shit I feel like barem is for sure up to something. hhhhh

justice devil is to csm part 2 as buggy the clown is to one piece. shows up early on then just keeps showing up, improbably

oh what the hell this is so cool...the etymology of devils!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yesssssssss so fucking interesting

the implication that there could be (is?) separate fairness and equality devils....suuuper cool oh man

oh shit so the chainsaw man church is somehow breaking the rules of how devils/devil powers/devil contracts work????

are they saying that someone in the church had a justice devil contract and summoned the justice devil/used its powers, despite it having been killed not long ago??? oooh

oh??? NOT the justice devil??? hmmmmm

either that's true and there's another devil afoot (fakesaw man??? where's he at. what's the deal) OR they were right initially and there's some OTHER flavor of fuckery going on

ASA SIGHTING FUCK YES WE ARE WINNING

looooove how even tho asa looks cool as fuck on all the posters and while hunting devils, she's still truly a failgirl bc she (kinda accidentally) became the poster girl for a cult 😭😭 love her sm

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NOT THE FUCKING DOOR GODDDDDDDDDDD STOP THIS I have such bad door PTSD in csm only

OH FUCK ITS PUBLIC SAFETY (PROBABLY) !?!?!?

asa yoru fight scene? please? please? maybe? please?

OH FUCK ASA FUUUUUCK YES

asa beating the failgirl accusations (for now?)

SHE HAS A PLANNNNNNNNNNN and yoru plays a part ooooh oh man ooooooh

LOVE the agency asa has taken regarding her powers. so so cool thematically I wanna talk abt that some time

yoru is like fuck. that's cool. asa is cool. fuuuuuck

yesssss fuck god I love asa and yoru's relationship ngl. so interesting and I really have no idea where it's going. they could end up fighting each other to the death, or fighting someone else to the death FOR each other. time will tell

OHHHH ASA SO COOL

YOSHIDA??????????????????????????????????????

AND ITS YOSHIDA WITH THE STEEL CHAIR GIANT TENTACLE

barem singing kumbaya while getting arrested is SOOOO cult leader of him ngl

denjis like ok that was weird. whatever lets go home. King

sexual assault-chan just staning there like :D? lmao

OHHHH THIS IS SO FUCKING OMINOUS GOD.

him singing kumbaya over the sunrise. SOMETHING IS UP I SWEARRRRR or its tension-building misdirection. either way....

YOSHIDA CUTTING ASA'S ARM OFF???? HELLO????

is yoshida singing kumbaya too???? I'm 99% sure it's just barem's singing over the panel but that scared me for a sec thinking yoshida was involved w/that

FUUUUCK ARE WE GONNA GET YOSHIDA VS ASA. DAMNNNNN

HYPE AS FUCK HOLY SHIT.

okay but really I think there is more to barem. idk, I think he's the villain of part 2. that might be bold to say but that's the vibe I've gotten since he was introduced

I dont thiiiink it's fami, we havent seen her in a while and her motives are still...hmmmmm....uncertain

also I think that would be too similar to makima. I mean they're very different character-wise, just similar powers-wise I guess, w/them being sisters

barem is so creepy and I think there's a lot going on w/him that we haven't seen yet. plus him being a major villain would be SUCH a cool thematic continuation of part 1 - chainsaw man as an idea rather than a person/devil/person-devil, and how that can create a villain even without denji or pochita or chainsaw man doing anything

idk barem has the same vibes as makima in the sense that thing are happening as he wants them to - like he's in control

but also YOSHIDA WTFFFF WHAT IS YOUR DEALLLL

I love yoshida as a character SO much he is SO mysterious and fascinating. I still love the idea that he's kishibes nephew or something

god I want a sitcom of kishibe, yoshida, and quanxi all living together and fighting devils together and occasionally trying to kill each other. PLEASE it would be top tier excellence

anyways yoshida remains an enigma...I mean we did know he doesn't seem to like asa and told her to stay in her lane. and like, can we assume yoshida is with public safety, cause he was hanging w/sexual assault-chan a few chapters ago?

that doesn't necessarily confirm he's a member but still.

so was that him at the door telling asa to come out, or is yoshida a third party who busted in?

it looks like he busted the door down to get in so it was probably him knocking too

also barem getting arrested feels like in the movies when they capture a villain a little TOO easily and the villain is like oh darn u got me. and then they're in jail like ohhhh I'm in jail darnnnnn and u just KNOW they're gonna pull some shit

I MAY BE WRONG but based on Vibes Alone this guy is fuuuucked up

my GOD i'm so hype for more okay. phewwww

[oohbuggypie]

let me be quick and not acc blow this place tf up w words even tho i could But oh my God . thissvebheheuetrwfw the the the aged style on this ? i thjnk that was intentional and if it was u blew that shit out of the water . Genuinely . i am literally STARING at the hand ;; u managed to acc capture the essence of how skin sits on elderly hands , with the accentuation of the joints ? the gangly fingers with the visible knuckle bones that slightly protrude ? the nail . nothing even crazy abt the nail that shit just looks good like fr . let me SAYYY that the draping and folding of the cloak was done wonderfully like im a lil bit in awe at how u rlly were able to make the sleeve look so much like actual fabric . i also need 2 gush abt the line weight cuz waow . Woowww like it's all just in the perfect place ? u did amazing at gauging where a thicker line would be appropriate , and the thinner lines rlly do help tremendously in conveying the frail look of Moon like AUHGDGEHEGEGAHSH . ugh . ur arttt has lit developed sm and this is a prime example of ur growth pls give urself a pat on the back cuz this is gorgeous 🩷
