You think Koichi was ever mistaken for a child?

Im sure of it :D

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)

I love this so much.

I like Shirt, cause it's short and easy to remember. May these two be forever happy.

Curtis, who? (Season 8 Spoilers)

I got so mad after seeing all those posts about Curtis being, like, “some random dude without a name” and “was around for a couple of scenes and had just one line”, so I re-watched the end of season 7 and then season 8 and made this.

This is not accurate science, but as far as I know, these are the scenes that have Curtis in them, and also all his lines I could find.

THIS LONG POST CONTAINS HEAVY SPOILERS FOR VOLTRON SEASON 8, INCLUDING THE VERY LAST SCENE OF THE FINALE!

Keep reading

This. This is exactly how I feel.

Its heartbreaking that there's so much I want to discuss about VLD and what happened etc, but when one fan feels unsafe amongst other fans, it has gone too far. Please be kind to each other

This VLD fandom is honestly getting out of hand

Okay so I watched the final reason of Voltron and you all may think I’m crazy but I thought it was absolutely amazing. Yeah I’m actually going to be positive about this season instead of raging out like most are.

Because truly this fandom is so toxic and so filled with hate, it’s why I just watch the show and avoid the fandom, but this needs to be addressed, which is sad because I would like to be able to discuss stuff without everything shoved down my throat.

People are just so angry. And I get it, they are just so passionate about it, about what they wanted and what they didn’t want and I understand, I really really do. But enough to actually blame the writers and creators of the show. Enough to say they did the characters wrong and that it’s disgusting and how dare they, that they are awful? That they should be ashamed of themselves? Really is that what we’ve been reduced too? They should be ashamed of themselves?

NO,

We should be ashamed of ourselves. For thinking that treating others like this, —regardless of how much we disagree with them— is okay.

Cause just like, no. I don’t care what everyone’s excuse is, NONE of that is okay. Being so horrible to the creators and writers to this show —to any show or movie really— just because something happened that you didn’t like or didn’t want for any reason is NOT OKAY. Now you can disagree with it, you can say how this should have been that front ways and back, you can even write your own non canon version if you wish. You can do all that.

But just know that creators worked hard on this show, to bring it to life, know that they are proud of what they created and RESPECT them for it even if the show didn’t end how you wanted. Because there is a line you shouldn’t cross, as a decent human being and that’s spreading all this hate that’s absolutely not needed.

Now are there things I wished happened differently, yes of course. Like how I would have liked to have had Shiro stay with the Black Lion, giving since he spent so long trying to bond with the thing. And I also would have liked it if they gave Adam more screen time before killing him off.

But

I’m not going to rage and rant about things that didn’t happen, instead I’m going to praise the show, for the things that DID happen and the things that were amazing, and beautiful and spectacular about it from season 1 all the way to season 8. Because honestly there isn’t a point to dwell on the bad. All that will do is make more toxicity and hate.

Don’t focus on the things you hated, be happy this show even existed, even HAPPENED in the first place. Because if this is how people are going to react when creators don’t do what the fans want or think they did a character wrong, this could have happened or that, then maybe they shouldn’t exist in the first place.

Because no one, NO ONE needs or deserves that kind of toxic hate. As human beings, we need to be better.

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.

My table in the artist alley at Denfur! Stop by and say hi!

So trying a kinderjoy egg thingerwinger for the first time. Not impressed with the sweets but the little dude is cute. Gonna name him Hubert

Until the very end

Reblog if you will still be around for season 8

Let’s see how many of us true fans are left here who still love and support the show <3 

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.
