Unpopular Opinions(Voltron: LD Edition)

Unpopular Opinions(Voltron: LD Edition)

Please respect others’ opinions. Thank you! 😊❤️

*Sorry if any of mine are popular. I don’t talk about my opinions with fandoms since they can be pretty toxic.*

Here are mine:

1. The Shiro clone idea was really bad.

I don't like this idea because the development "Shiro" went through between S3 & 6 did not affect the actual Shiro.

2. Voltron went downhill once Keith replaced Shiro as the leader.

I don't think it is Keith's fault for the show's quality depleting; this is a timeline of when quality decreased. But, I think Shiro was a way better leader than Keith since he has the experience and personality of one. Keith is more of a second-in-command, at least for me.

3. Allura and Lance should have never gotten together.

This ship was all over the place. First Lance had a huge unrequited crush on Allura, then he seemed to be moving on and she was in love with Lotor. The development was rushed near the end, and their chemistry was kind of awkward to me.

4. I wasn’t super upset about Allura’s death. Just the way it was written.

Allura never really connected with me. I really tried to like her as much as most of the main characters, but I couldn't feel it. Her death was sudden and lukewarm, especially the goodbye between her and the Voltron crew. There was this feeling of emptiness in this reunion. The circumstances of why she had to die was meh. It would've been better if the lions sacrificed themselves instead.

5. Klance is very overrated(still kind of ship it tho).

This ship was everywhere, and some Klance shippers I've seen were toxic which turned me off for a while. At first, I felt kind of pressured to like this ship since Klance shippers populated the fandom. Now, I genuinely enjoy the ship, though I wish other ships gained more attention.

6. Shiro’s second arm design was bad.

I loved his first arm and was super upset when the designers did a 180 on the second one. It was so clunky and distracting whenever it was in full view. The detached portion of it was really annoying too.

When it comes to robotic limbs, I want them to look natural with the body.

7. Having so many villains was not a great idea.

I've watched shows with a lot of villains and they mostly put me off since some of them were one-note and generic. I really didn't like when Lotor was the temporary villain; he could've been a great ally for the finale. Honerva was pretty rushed and boring; she would have been better if she was the main villain much longer than two seasons. Zarkon was probably the best one.

8. Compared to villains in general, Honerva wasn’t too bad.

Compared to a lot of villains (especially the minor ones), Honerva is okay. I don't think she was great though. She needed a lot more development and her redemption was so quick.

I didn’t have a lot to say since most of my strong opinions are about the last two seasons and I agree with most of the fans.

What do you guys think? 😊❤️

A Voltron Rant

In Voltron season 8 episodes 9 & 10.

The old Paladins meet their predecessors and each talk to them.

Battle skills, entities inside them, kindness, their relationship with their daughter, their leadership skills because of their lineage.

Lance wasn’t the only one thrown under the bus, Keith was to.

Keith: “no we won’t give up!”

Zarkon: “that’s your galra lineage. It’s what makes you a great leader of Voltron. You and I share that trait...”

I just sat there like “so your putting all of Keith’s leadership abilities on his heritage, so what about Shiro?” Where’d the character go? Oh wait with season 4.

Like yes Galrans are good leaders (Lotor, Sendak, Ranveig, Zarkon -before the quintessence poisoning-, Kolivan) but still it kinda just sucks that he got all his leadership skills stuffed into the fact of being Galra.

I would have loved it if it was something like ....

Zarkon: that’s what makes you a good leader your undying love for your family, friends and fellow Paladins.

I would have cried if that was said because it was probably true for Zarkon just as much as it is for Keith.
