And my world was pink and blue
Disjointed Voltron S6 thoughts under the read more :)
So season 6 happened. Here are my thoughts on it as a whole, will be disjointed and a little muddy - I’ll do it by character I guess.
First off, Lotor was a disappointment to me. I was saddened by the turn of events but wasn’t surprised the thing with the alteans was crazy and wow. But he’s always been a villain and sadly that’s what happened.
Along side Lotor - Haggar was a disappointment, but I hope maybe she’ll have a bigger stand in the next season. His generals were also disappointing.
I felt for Allura, who was blinded by lotor and his pretty words. But overall, I wasn’t that in enthralled with Allura this season - she was wonderful yes but a diff character stole the light for me. She still had a lot of fantastic moments in this season <3
Lance, oh lance - you love sick little bean !! I’m rooting for you!! If anyone says Lance doesn’t respect Allura after this can eat my entire ass. He loves her full stop. You can tell he is maturing (and his love with it) but he is still out goofball <3
Hunk was amazing this season - worked his intelligence and him with the governess was so funny
Pidge was also amazing. Her using Shiro’s arm code like that, knowing a situation like this could occur? Fantastic.
Ok now to the two who stole the show.
Shiro, poor Shiro, he’s been through way too much and I hope that now that his soul is free from the black lion he will be able to rest. I really hope the production team retires him from Voltron- have do like he did in season three. I think it would be good for him. But wow his scenes were pretty damn powerful!! (and lmao dnd shiro cracked me up)
Keith. My sweet son. Fuck. I don’t even know where to begin with Keith. He was easily the best character this season (who am I kidding he’s the best all around) his brotherly bond with Shiro was so great, his learning of his mom and dad and the backstory they share, his maturing and finding that peace he so desperately needed felt so good!! Those flashbacks sobs. Every scene that had Keith in it, my heart soared!
I’m just floored by this season. There was some messiness to it, yes, but over all - it was great! But that animation?? FANFUCKINGTASTIC!! I adored the animation in this season holy fuck. 11/10
Now to pull on shipper goggles in my analysis and for shits and giggles. (don’t take all of this for serious lmao)
ALLURANCE IS CANON KING BITCHES
like I will be shocked as HELL if they don’t end up canon give me the sweet cotton candy dw!! If anyone DARES try to say Lance doesn’t care about Allura after this, I will kick them in the jaw.
Lotura ship sunk im crying.
I hope punk does develop romantically tbh, bc all the time they spend together would make it so sweet!
Sadly, the emphasis on family bonds w sheith make my thought of it becoming canon near nonexistent. The life or death i love you made perfect sense for a western family to say to another and while I still hope that maybe it will develop into something else, the fact this is the second time family is brought up with sheith (twice in this season actually) and jds saying it that way too… well, yeah. Still a good valid ship tho.
Lance cried over Shiro, maybe shance moment?? LOL
Crack pair time Ok Ok hear me out Allura/Romelle
Eh? Eh? Anyone on the sapphic canoe w me?
Or they could Naruto end it for us and have Pidge and Hunk, Allura and Lance, and Keith and Romelle all get married and have kids lol
someone also mentioned Kroila and Shiro and I just laughed man like, it would be so weird fffff I think Kroila wouldn’t do that, even if Keith’s dad is dead (or is he really *squinty eyes*)
Ok I’m done.
