Vld Shiro - Blog Posts
Inspired by the second book in the voltron duality series by @squirenonny
This drawing is honestly one of the best ones I made in ages, I am so proud of it. It literally looks exactly how I pictured it in my head :D
Also did I put matt's knee brace on the wrong leg? Was it even there at that point in the story? Who knows! I'm already halfway into book 3 so I might've mixed some stuff up...
Does anyone else also struggle with finding the perfect pose reference but the model is the wrong body type to the point that you have to Frankenstein the right body type together? It happened 4 times in this drawing TvT
What should I draw next? I'm thinking some klance but we'll see how that goes
Voltron news
hey. I know it’s really sad that voltron is leaving Netflix. I was at a football game when I found out so I have to share something. You guys should absolutely NOT use myflixer.to to find all the way up to the fourth season. You should definitely not screen record it if you have an apple product with Netflix. Under NO CIRCUMSTANCES should you use obs with a laptop. This means that you may get the show for free long after its removal.
;>
CROAK 😠
I HOPE YOU FUCKING CRROOOAAAKKKK ‼️‼️‼️
This physically hurt me when I heard about this. So, I fucking downloaded the whole series on my profile on Netflix! FUCK YOU NETFLIX, YOU HEARTLESS BITCH! YOU AIN'T STOPPING ME FROM WATCHING!😨😭😈😤
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
THEY'RE FUCKING WITH US
PLEASE SAY THIS IS A JOKE
*cough*
Even though season 8 could have been SOOOOOOO much better I wouldn't say I hated it, so just to lift my spirits a little solely I'm listing here the things I did like, or even love:
The freakin soundtrack
The animation was the best to date
They added background to the villains which i always appreciate
EZOR AND ZETHRID LIKE I HONESTLY THOUGHT THEY WERE DEAD AND FORGOTTEN
The gags ond 80s voltron
PIDGE AND HUNK BEING THE ABSOLUTE BEST
Pidge and Colleen's dinamic had me dead
The way they filled an episode from the camera's perspective and had it still advancing plot was actually pretty smart and well done
I've always liked Allura's bravery and assertiveness while being under so much pression but this season SHE'S JUST (OR WAS I GUESS?) A FREAKIN QUEEN
Keith literally stating that his lone wolf days are gone AT LAST
Shiro being fucking happy at the end?? I mean I despise the little screen time or development he got but guys if someone deserved to end up finding love one way or another and as far away from the spotlight as possible, that was shiro, he's been through enough
The mind fucks with the realities and being inside the THOUGHTS of other people and being able to calculate what's EXACTLY going to happen, that's some rick and morty stuff right there
The old and new paladins reunion *heart eyes*
Allura saying her goodbyes to everyone (except Lance's one ironically), they were so beautiful and heartfelt I think I died and resurrected
And that's pretty much all that I can think of right now probably some quotes also.
Wow that's a short list.
I was so much more invested in the midseason's (like episodes 5, 6 and 7) events than the finale's like I went through all of number 11/12 thinking WAIT BUT I actually don't care
Wanna be yours
I wanna be your vacuum cleaner, breathing in your dust. I wanna be your Ford Cortina, I will never rust. If you like your coffee hot. Let me be your coffee pot. You call the shots babe, I just wanna be yours
Secrets I have held in my heart. Are harder to hide than I thought. Maybe I just wanna be yours, I wanna be yours, I wanna be yours.
Wanna be yours, wanna be yours, wanna be yours
Let me be your 'leccy meter and I'll never run out. And let me be the portable heater, that you'll get cold without. I wanna be your setting lotion (I wanna be)Hold your hair in deep devotion (How deep?)
At least as deep as the Pacific Ocean, I wanna be yours.
Wanna be yours by Arctic Monkeys

HI! I don't know if you do the whole answering questions thing, but I was wondering what some of your favourite moments have been so far (in Voltron)
hey! I’ll totally answer some questions!!
one of my favourite moments has to be when when keith and Hunk are doing their mission and hunk is so surprised by Keith making a joke(season two)
there’s also when they all have the food fight in season one
I definitely have more but I just started to re-watch season three
S8 Thoughts
I’ve been reading a lot of posts about a lot of unhappy people who watched the season, and didn’t like how certain things went. (I’m trying really hard not to spoil things, but it is tumblr and things are everywhere)
But one thing someone pointed out, that at Shiro’s wedding, behind Shiro and Curtis, when Curtis yanks Shiro closer, we see what I think is Keith standing behind Shiro with his arms crossed. Everyone assumes he’s all pissed because Shiro’s getting married to someone other than him. He’s all bitter because Shiro, the one who he fell and almost died for is marrying someone from the Atlas crew. Honestly, in all honesty, I feel like Keith wouldn’t be bitter, he saw Shiro as a brotherly figure, not a lover. His arms might be crossed, but my thought, he’s stuck in some stiff suit or clothes he wouldn’t ever wear, and wouldn’t be comfortable in. All in all, I think Keith is just hella uncomfortable being there, because he’s prolly in a suit that he wont ever wear again. Also, weddings, no matter who’s it is, are uncomfortable as all hell- wearing clothes you probably wont ever look at again that are stiff and uncomfortable, (This might also be my dislike of huge gatherings showing through) ANYWAY, I know a lot of shippers are all up in arms about it because it should be Keef or even it should be Adam because reasons x, y and z. It would have been nice if Shiro had the chance to have some closure with Adam (and not just his plaque) and be able to move on with a clear head. I mean, he was still able to move on, which I’m so proud of him for. This man has been through hell, and he has the scars to prove it. How long has he been in space? How long was he with the Galra again? Where they took his friggin arm? Being isolated as a prisoner, and being used for gladiatorial fights will change a man. (Not that I know what it’s like being in a gladiator situation, but I imagine with how long he was there and with all they did to him it was going to be a life changing experience.)
The fact that Shiro managed to find love in someone like Curtis, and be able to get married, and move on with his life, instead of dwelling on the bad, and feeling sorry for himself, I cant hide my pride for him. He gave himself the chance to find love again, and go to live a probably quieter life, away from the conflict that had torn at him for years. Dreams change, wants change, people change.
I love this show, I love the characters, the music, the giant robot(s), and all it did. If I didn’t give this show a watch, I wouldn’t have drawn a lot of what I did in October, or before, and I would probably be a much unhappier person.
I know I’ve said this in posts in the past, but I love what the whole Voltron team did to bring this together. To JDS, LM, and all of the other producers, thank you for making such a great show with some of my favorite animation I’ve seen in awhile.
word vomit over.
(just kidding i just realized that with this show over, it’ll be harder to see the other cast/crew members at conventions in my area T^T)
Sorry its sideways, but knowing Shiro and Curtis are happy together is enough for me.
Thank you VLD cast, crew, and exec. producers. The ride was incredible with lots of highs and lows, but what an incredible one. I will miss you VLD.
Shiro got a happy ending, why can't anyone let it be? Am I still an emotional wreck from this season? Yes. Am I mad about it? Not really mad, just... raw. I don't understand why having Shiro wind up with a man, and be happy is so upsetting. Is it Keith? No, but thats ok. Is it Adam? No, but that's ok too. Why should it matter, as long as Shiro, a character that has been to hell and back, is happy. Shiro and Curtis are husbands, with an on screen kiss.
Shiro found his happily ever after.
(Again, I'm very tired, I'm still raw, but god dammit if someone is gonna try to take his ending away.)
Please be kind, to the crew, to the va's, to each other and to other vld fans.
ATTENTION SHIRO X ANYONE STANS
I know you’re hurt but I’m hoping you’ll still support Shiro and be better than the k/l extremists that would have the cast and crew burned for not giving a very particular thing in a wild ride that gripped us to the very end.
We still have what we love even if it’s only in our art and fics.
REBLOG IF YOU SUPPORT SHIRO AND CURTIS AND HOPE THEY HAVE A HAPPY HONEYMOON
Last few drawings I've done so far for this drawtober.
My first ten drawtober entries for this year! They just might be all Voltron related but who cares! Exploring the personalities of the lions has been a lot of fun.
I thought he kinda got the shafted with the black lion. *doesn’t want to start some kind of war* but I loved how much he worked for that lion, how much he connected, and he will never not be the black paladin.
I already said that last part in my other post but meh. He is precious.
So... first post...
After season 7 of voltron legendary defender killed me i decided to start using this thing. So have a Shiro and lil black lion i drew like...5 days ago. *he will never not be the black paladin in my eyes*
I love this man so much that will never change.
The demons… they won..
Im on season 2 of my Voltron rewatch and honestly forgot that Keith was revealed half Galra this early
anyways
Shiro is obviously a Nightwing cause like what else would he be
Keith is a Skywing/Nightwing so he can be red and breathe fire but can also be emo (he also has hivewing in him cause in this AU the Galra are hivewings)
Lance is seawing/icewing because he’s blue but also his lion spits ice so I figured if he were a dragon he would spit ice too
Hunk is a mudwing but more specifically I think he’s also a bigwings, this would make him fireproof in the WoF universe and Hunks whole thing in his lion is armor
Pidge is a rainwing (no I didn’t forget her glasses shhhh) because the green but I also think it connects her to her lions ability to cloak and her whole character arc being about disguising herself
I haven’t drawn Allura or Coran yet but I have them planned out already as well as many other parts of this AU so feel free to ask questions :]
I’ve officially hit rock bottom gamers.. Im watching Voltron again 😔
Kallura/Plance Season 8 Fanfic Challenge/Request
So with that being said, I challenge/request someone to do a Kallura/Plance fanfic take on season 8 with Keith and Allura resolving their issues with each other and develop their relationship into romance and after the final battle, Allura survives after sacrificing herself to save the universe and she and Keith getting married becoming the King & Queen of the Galra and Alteans bringing peace and prosperity to the entire universe. And on that, find a love interest for Romelle. She could be either straight, lesbian or bisexual.
My Reaction to VLD Season 8.
I have to be completely honest with all y’all. When the 8th season of Voltron Legendary Defender came out, I skipped it to the final episode and boy was I pissed, angry, sad and heartbroken. The entire show became another reboot epic fail like Thundercats 2011. Not only that Kallura didn’t become canon in the end when the creators of the show paired Allura with Lance, they killed her off for their own petty reasons. In the end of the Shipping Wars, it turned out that all ships are casualties and the fandom lose. So yeah, we took a major L. Nobody wins in the end.
I decided that from now on until someone makes another Voltron cartoon that’ll top that monstrosity that is Voltron Legendary Defender, I’ll stick with the original Voltron from the 80′s and Go Lion from Japan because they are a million times better than that damn reboot from Netflix because seasons from 4 all the way to the 8 turned it into biggest piece of crap and all the characters have been botched very badly, mainly Keith and Allura! Sorry. I’m just gettin’ it out of my system.
And yeah, we were wrong for being toxic fans over characters and ships. One day, we’ll be better human beings and fans. Season 8 has been our punishment for behaving the way we did. We’ll try hard to make sure that it never happens again. So....our bad!
And to Lauren Montgomery and Joaquim Dos Santos, I must speak on behalf of the Voltron fandom since 1984 when I say that you didn’t ruin our childhood,both of y’all broke all of our hearts and make us love, cherish and appreciated the original Voltron Defender Of The Universe even more because it’ll always be better than your creation Voltron Legendary Defender. Thanks but no thanks. And you get millions of middle fingers and smiles from us as our way of showing how much we appreciated y’all and how much effort you put into it. Nuff said.
To the creators of Voltron Legendary Defender after season 8. Especially after they killed off Princess Allura on the final episode.
The song for the final battle against Haggar/Honerva in season 8 of Voltron Legendary Defender.
Since Voltron Legendary Defender is gonna conclude with Season 8, here’s a Queen song dedicated to the series finale. Enjoy!
