TDP Shipping Poll

I noticed that my tag for the poll #tdp-shipping-poll doesn’t work (it doesn’t show any results). I don’t know if it’s because the posts contain a link, because the posts did appear in other tags.

In any case, I made a separate page on my blog titled “The Dragon Prince Shipping Poll“ where I will post links to updates.

If you haven’t participated in the poll, here’s the link! I’ve currently received 184 responses. The more people participate, the more accurate results we will get.

HAPPY THURSDAY THE 20TH EVERYONE

[menmass]

Let me just remind you all that fandoms have survived on fanon for YEARS, so continue to like Klance for days, months, or even years (cmon, ppl have had otps from way back when). Rely on the multiverse theories and ship what you want (klance or not), and pls, slow burn is a thing. Post-S8 is about healing for all the Paladins, so go ahead and make it into a Klance slow burn where they have to learn to love each other romantically entirely and naturally :)

[bisexualcrises]

The fact that they were going back and forth between making Allura an adult and a teenager DURING THE SHOW because of SHIPS shows they just considered Allura a pawn in romantic storylines. She was never her own person, she was just a part of a heteronormative pairing. Fuck you, voltron.

[ahotcupofmagic]

I would say, fuck you DW. I’m sure LM and JDS had a different vision… We shouldn’t go on a Voltron hatred spree, I think ;(

But I agree that Allura was written (and treated) poorly, and I am very upset about it (◞‸◟), but I blame it all on the execs! >:( 

[bisexualcrises]

come ON it was literally the showrunners. Stop placing the blame on a company and ignoring the fact that they were showrunners who have been said to foster a toxic work environment. It’s NOT all the executives’ faults. Fucks sake this is how horrible people stay working in the industry. Y’all are too willing to kiss their ass.

[red-zeroo-deactivated20210211]

Not to be that person, but look at She-ra. DW has been very supportive with it and as we know it has LGBTQ in it, so what’s voltron’s excuse. They seem to have a good plot, soooo🙄🙄🙄

[ahotcupofmagic]

Voltron has LGBTQ rep as well, though. 

[red-zeroo-deactivated20210211]

[ahotcupofmagic]

She-Ra LGBTQ rep: Spinnerella and Netossa are heavily implied to be a couple. Catra and Adora have a romantic potential.

Voltron LGBTQ rep: Shiro and Adam are heavily implied to be a couple. Keith and Lance have a romantic potential. THERE’S A WEDDING BETWEEN SHIRO AND CURTIS. A. WEDDING. Between two male characters. In a DW cartoon. 

I’m sorry, the only reason you are hating on Voltron is because Klance didn’t become canon. I wanted them to become canon. Sheith and Allurance fans wanted their ships to become canon, too. You can’t say there’s no rep in Voltron just because you’re salty.

We don’t know what’s gonna happen to She-Ra as the show progresses. What if Catra and Adora never make it? What if there’s crappy stuff in the writing/character development? Are you gonna hate on Noelle Stevenson?

Where are you even getting this from??? D: You have to understand how cartoons are made. Just because you have a cool idea and lots of talent doesn’t mean you will be able to produce the work you want. It is true about almost all shows. DW will always have the final say as they are the ones who pay for the thing. 

[discoursecatharsis]

So, now people want Lauren and JM blacklisted from the animation industry. Not just antis, but nearly everyone.

That’s a load of BS, LM and JDS did nothing wrong. Are people forgetting the other amazing 7 seasons they gave us? One bad season/finale (that most likely isn’t even completely their fault) shouldn’t get anyone blacklisted from the industry.

[kaityper]

Tbh Im getting so tired of people talking about how “Klance was never going to happen”.

Like, up until the final season, everyone was high key crossing their fingers that they’re ship was gonna be endgame, so how is everyone suddenly gonna start dissing klance fans for being disappointed like they’re the only ones? Its been a while since I’ve seen the last show, but wasn’t the last time we saw All/urance, Allura had chosen Lotor over Lance and he was heartbroken over it? And didn’t the creators say something about how Lance wasn’t going to be anyone’s second choice?? So how are we supposed to then continue to assume that All/urance could still possibly be canon after Allura very clearly chose Lotor over Lance, which would then make him her second choice?

Ugh, I’m honestly just so annoyed rn cause I can’t even scroll through the Klance tag without running into fifteen anti klance posts, but I wanna make this clear that I think that everyone should be able to ship what they want to ship and if you dont ship something then just leave it alone and don’t hate on it, or at least dont directly write the word Klance (ex:Kl/ance) so people searching through the tag dont have to see it. 🙄🙄

[ahotcupofmagic]

I don’t think the creators actually said that (Lance not being someone’s second choice) - I think it was during a Q&A where someone asked Jeremy Shada whether Lance is going to be someone’s first choice, to which he said “Heck yeah!”, although it is possible he might’ve understood the question differently :((

I do agree with the rest of the post, though. I don’t ship Allurance, but I feel this ship was handled poorly in the show. Lance liked Allura p much from the start, but Allura didn’t seem to show any interest in him until after Lotor (whom she chose instead of Lance) had betrayed her. This is not a good premise for a relationship ;/ 

That being said, I think Allurance is still a valid ship and I’m sure Allurance shippers have done a tremendous job writing wonderful stories and drawing lovely art.

I am also sad that there’s so much hate in the Klance tag ;( can’t say I’m surprised, though... It isn’t fair that just because we hoped Klance would become canon and it didn’t, people get to be crappy at us. Is it wrong to have your hopes up? I definitely thought there was a chance of Klance becoming canon. Yes, I’ve read valid arguments why Klance wouldn’t become canon, but then we have examples like Korrasami, and heck - Shiro and Curtis. Don’t get me wrong - I absolutely love Korrasami, but Klance had <i>waaaaay</i> more canon support than Korra and Asami and those two got to be canon...

That last one no one saw coming! It was super rushed and I saw some people talk about how Curtis/Shiro was a “safe” way for DW to appease the fandom, like, here you go, have some rep, so that they wouldn’t need to choose between two of the biggest MLM ships (Sheith and Klance). And frankly, I think that’s why Klance didn’t become canon. We had all the drama caused by Klantis, all the harassment of the staff, to a point DW decided to avoid all that and Klance never even got a chance ;/ 

By the end of the day, we at least got an open ending. Keith and Lance are both single, so there’s a lot of potential. Sheith and Allurance fans got outright spat in the face. 

[dilfdestroyereggman]

don’t even try to tell me i’m wrong

[thespacenico]

this is my hot take on it

[ahotcupofmagic]

I agree with the last pic! It doesn’t matter if Klance isn’t canon. It’s a great ship no matter what <3

[discoursecatharsis]

I had an argument with a Klance shipper the other day when they came into a channel where a bunch of us (some who also ship Klance) were talking about how toxic the ship has become. They were instantly defensive, saying it’s not fair that all Klance shippers are painted with the same brush, and while I agree with them to an extent I think it’s a lot more complicated than that. (1/8)

THANK YOU👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 You the real mvp anon.

I wish more Klance shippers would stop supporting antis. Stop following them, stop liking their posts, stop reblogging/retweeting their things, stop talking to them, stop befriending them.

I’m not saying Klancers have to start showing support for Shaladin ships, because I know some are genuinely uncomfortable with them. I’m not saying Klancers should publicly denounce klantis and speak out against them, because that could make them subject to bullying and harassment from antis, and I don’t want anyone to be in that position.

But if Klancers would just PUSH the antis out with a boycott, that would’ve made a world of difference.

I hope future fandoms take note of this (here’s looking at you She-Ra fandom). If every nice/decent/sensible shipper did this, made an active effort to avoid antis who ship what they ship, these fandoms would be a much better place.

[ahotcupofmagic]

I know with S8 coming this is the last thing most of you wanna read, but this is important. We, Klance shippers, have to stand our ground against Klantis and the hate they spread! 

1. Don’t like their posts. 

2. Don’t reblog their stuff. 

3. Speak out if you see them harass someone. 

This is going to be <i>especially</i> important after season 8, because Klance will (sadly) not become canon and some people can become extra aggressive... 

Say no to hate. Be respectful. All ships are valid. 

[ruui-san]

Excuse the crappy graphics - but i’m so ready to simultaneously scream, cry, laugh and smile while watching s8!!!!!💙❤️🖤💚💛💗

Big thankyou to all of team voltron for making such an amazing show! I’ve also loved being part of this fandom (in our good moments at least) it’s been a fun ride with u beeches uwu ♡ ♡ ♡ 👌

[soren-poet-blog]

guys, what ever happens, we respect any ship that becomes canon. Even if something doesn’t become canon doesn’t mean we should stop shipping it! let’s make the fandom the best it’s ever been!

[ahotcupofmagic]

Guys, we need to spread this message! I propose a tag - #whatever happens

Write your stuff and tag it - spread the positivity!

[aextra]

okay but let’s not lie to ourselves: everyone who said they were quitting voltron will watch it with us tomorrow anyway

[catneychu]

Try to be more careful next time, hothead.

[dramaticsblog-deactivated202201]

So with the new season coming…

Can you reblog this if you actually LIKE voltron still, and aren’t just going to be complaining about everything constantly? Sorry but I actually do love this show and I want to interact with real fans
