Fillmore - Season 2 - Episode 8
I know this has nothing to do with Voltron but the message and it has to do with every single one of us and how we felt at the end of the season. Yes, we were let down, we were disappointed we ultimately have our feelings for the series torn asunder.
we loved and devoted time to the series. We invested hours into our artwork, fanfictions, fan comics stickers, videos theories and more, in the end, it just came to nothing. And yet even as a fan, I have known this disappointment before. I suffered it when the bleach manga suddenly ended after spending 15 long years reading it. I suffered with the Tenchi Muyo franchise when after a 10 year long hiatus and only one of its original creators returning gave us a lackluster project and only a shallow rendition of the original series truly was. I suffered through the terrible filler arc searches Inuyasha and Naruto had which really derailed the plot in a lot of ways it would make your head spin. I even had a twinge of sadness when the on my goddess anime, which I had been looking forward to for years had some disappointments, even though it was a very good series.
I am an old-taku for I have seen many an anime my life, many cartoons, many TV shows, and many books series. I have witnessed the Japanese animation community come from a small underground phenomenon to mainstream entity in the states. I’ve watched the technology boom, from records to cassette tapes, to CDs, to MP3s all in the span of a decade. I watch the Internet grow from the small shared medium into the large global interface it is now. I am the generation watch Pokémon become the phenomenon it is from a small black-and-white video game on the Nintendo. I saw the first Toonami block back in 1997. I saw the shows like Macross, Eagle riders, and of course Voltron.
My childhood was made on all these things. so I more than anyone can understand the heartbreak, the disappointment, and resentment I know so many of you are feeling. And I can tell you that you’re not alone and that it’s all right to feel the way you do. You can cry, you can scream you can vent your anger out on blogs or Internet videos. You can make whole discussions, rants, educational videos on where you thought things went wrong and eventually you find out more about what did go wrong with the series you were once so in love with, hack apparently nowadays you can even make your own series if you get enough crowdfunding and people. you can even let the creators know where you felt things went wrong, and how that made you feel. Of course, you shouldn’t threaten in any way, that will get you nowhere in life. Instead, try to focus on what’s good in life, try other things meet new people, other fandoms come along in due time. Some of these fandoms can be good, some bad some come back and completely split you down the middle on opinion, what’s most important about all these things that you’re getting some enjoyment out of them.
So in the words of TQ Shrader about dealing with anger over a ruined fandom, and the young eager to Terry reminding the authors that a book to the fans who love it is a very special promise to all who read it.
I give you this message from experience Fan, and the young, as my wisdom to you all.
as I hope that can bring some help to you during these troubled times.
