Imagine being the character who gets written for 7 total seasons as the dumbass of the group with little to no actual character development until the last and final season where you get the girl you wanted from the start as her rebound boyfriend and then she dies and you’re stuck mourning her on a farm with the writers acting like you’ve been relevant at all this entire time.
“voltron walked so she-ra could run” no, voltron threw itself down several flights of stairs then got up and threw itself down more stairs then doused itself in gasoline before lighting itself on fire and throwing its burning body down even more flights of stairs.
I’m back at it again with MY THOUGHTS, MY OPINIONS about season 8. I’m going to make them separate because it will get way to long.
Let us start with the first thing that hit us, which was, Lance’s feelings
Let’s begin,
Lance’s feelings.
It starts with Lance being sad and all about not being with Allura.
I’m not going to lie, Lance was super cute with Allura and I clutched my heart with every word he said, because he’s such a good boy. BUT, things don’t add up. In season 7, he literally didn’t pay attention to her at all and was even denying his feelings towards her.
but okay, then we see Lance get courage to take Allura out for diner and they kiss at the end of their date. It was so cute and honestly, Vee el dee should have let them end up together if they were going that route. I mean, they were already a couple, but who am I to judge.
So let’s move to another Strong opinion I have and it’s
Where the F**ck is Lance’s endgame?

No one here, just a pic of him and Allura,
and no one here. okay.
Also, while in the topic of endgames and romance. Yes, I’m going to talk about KLance because wtf. lol
*Cough cough* Oh wait, I’ve seen screenshots like those before.
but okay. They romanticized Klance so hard it honestly was such a huge queer bait. Keith praised Lance, smiled at him more times and was there when Lance was feeling down more than Allura ever did in the whole show. I would have been fine with A//urance if they would have done it right, but they didn’t. They didn’t do A//urance right, and they didn’t do Klance right either. and at the end they left him alone, as an Altean.
Which moving on,
Lance is part Altean, I think
how and why… I have no idea, but it will come in handy for them future fan fics, if you know what I mean dnbksdjb
Next,
Lance’s sword
that’s it, that’s all they showed of it kdfnbkdfnbdnbkven
What a joke.
In my personal opinion, Lance could have grown so much more, he could have made such an impact, but instead they focused him on a girl that only at the last minute did they share a moment. Not to mention, they made Allura look like she needs a man. which, okay then.
I just, Lance deserved more okay. he really did. :((
to clarify, i know shiro gets married to a man he loves and showing a gay kiss is still a step in the right direction you know what that doesn’t change? the fact that their relationship is nonexistent until the last several seconds of the last episode of the last season. this awkward, drastic level of last-minute minimalism is a form of censorship and it’s fucking insane that anyone thinks it’s greedy or unappreciative to ask to see them interacting
it’s good to be happy about that scene. as he’s a major fucking character, it’s also good to think critically about why they didn’t show more
To those who don’t know who Shiro is married to - His name is Curtis, he worked alongside Shiro on the bridge. You’ll see him appear when Shiro asks for him to send out a team to the pyramid. He was actually in the show. Hope that helps whoever is confused. I don’t understand it either.
Okay. I’m highly irritated right now. I didn’t even watch the show all the way through. I literally skimmed through each episode.
I’m irritated that Klance isn’t canon or endgame. That’s just the truth.
I’m PISSED that they never properly shut it down (def not how Bex e x p l i c i t l y shot down Kaxca). I’m PISSED that they never properly shut down Lance’s bi arc (and that Lauren fucking drew him holding the lgbt sign with Shiro as support k n o w i n g that it was never gonna happen).
I’m PISSED that everything they said about Lance was a fucking lie. The romance wasn’t slow burn and Lance wasn’t her first choice. And it wasn’t even proper endgame cuz she died.
But most of all, I’m PISSED AS FUCK that they used the most popular ship to sell their fucking show knowing that it was never gonna happen. They let us believe Klance was gonna be canon in order to sell Voltron, knowing it wasn’t gonna happen and not even telling us. At least they could have told us. No. They skipped around it every chance they got, never giving a proper answer. Them not doing klance was such a wasted opportunity, imo.
Like, there are kids who looked at this ship and thought “wow, maybe it IS okay to be gay.” And that’s what sucks most.
I’m honestly not mad about Allurance happening or being canon. I’m mad that it wasn’t good.
They’re lgbt rep fucking sucked. And we’re allowed to be pissed. Shiro and some nameless guy at the end of the show.
They never talked about Keith almost sacrificing himself or Lance dying or Lance’s mistreatment (which they really should have done in s7).
I honestly don’t think I’m gonna watch it properly, but please tell me if I missed something.
Remember when they told us Lance would be someone’s first choice
Remember when they told us Lance would get someone he needs, not someone he wants
Remember when they told us Lance had an endgame but Allura did not
Remember when they gave us hope for something that wasn’t a forced relationship because a guy in the beginning thought the girl was pretty and wore her down over 7 seasons instead of having him listen to no and annoyed glances.
I love how voltron fixed the shiro and adam controversy by giving shiro a new husband in the last minute of the show in the credits with no name voice or context whatsoever wow its so good all better
I bet you a million fucking dollars that if they hadn’t received the incredible backlash that they did the vld crew wouldn’t have even thought of giving shiro another twink to marry
The allurance moments were cute but I’m pretty sure her death negates almost any of the joy we may have gotten (only speaking for myself as a multishipler and someone who isn’t planning to watch what seems to be a godawful mess of a season)
it could have been so much more than “cute” ..i just hope the voltron writers never try their hands on romance ever again
omg I'm kinda glad??? that I dropped vld at season 3??? cause the stress and drama that comes from that show afterwards is so much that I rely on my friends to inform of the things that go on 😂 Was thinking bout getting into it all again but there's so much I don't think my soul could comprende,,
nah you did good its not worth it i mean i loved the ballte scenes and all but even now i almost skipped all of them too
I could actually cry this style of animation is so fucking stunning
I cannot wait to see this fucking movie!!!
I love how the movie is showing that he is both African American and Hispanic. Like this Afro latainx culture is coming out full force in this movie and I love it
^^^^^^^^^^
I love this, all of it…. also… i sing like that sometimes… ever 6th word and the rest is mumbling!
people who hate kpop purely because of uncritical bias are literally teetering on the edge of just literal racism against asian people, so much so that an asian person will say something on twitter but they will be invalidated bc someone thinks that a SELFIE of themselves as their avi is “a kpop avi” like do y’all, grasp at all whats going on LMAO?
and then shit like this? are we gonna pretend that we havent been told “all asians look the same” for A LONG TIME and knew its racist and ugly, but all of a sudden everyone is just looking away and finding it funny bc yall hate kpop that much… like? its not even critical hate, its not in anyway criticizing the ACTUAL toxic kpop industry? its literally just an excuse to be racist
