Voltron: Legendary Defender

Talkback Thread #16: Improved Voltron Face (because Four Face Eyes is TOO MUCH!) Edition

Anyone else think that this Voltron also needs a right pauldron?

What are your issues with the music and how do you think it can be improved upon?

Why isn't Zarkon telling his forces EXACTLY what Voltron can do?

Is this week the tip of the hype-berg or will the show gain more momentum before the month is up?

What other mecha/kaiju references do you want to see made manifest in the coming season?

How screwed would someone not fluent in English be if they found themselves travelling the worlds of this universe?

How do you see the Voltron Force fighting back against Zarkon?

What has happened to the Holts?

And what of Planet Earth and all those left behind there?

>Why isn't Zarkon telling his forces EXACTLY what Voltron can do?
Voltron is a weapon of near infinite potential based on the pilots, what do you think he will tell them?

Who will completely lose it first, Shiro or Allura?

"Hey guys, the Blue One Freezes, the Red One Burns, and the Yellow One is heavily armoured. Also, they've got a giant sword and a giant cannon with homing lasers."

All of Pidge's lewds so far on sadpanda

Reminder that Sheith (tm) is the only pair supported by staff at this point and all other pairs are currently illegal and morally wrong.

Allura all ready went crazy in episode 9.

>get spoiled on pidge
>two episodes in
>pidge already getting wet for shiro
>pidge sits like a girl
She's not even subtle

PIDGE IS NOT FOR SEXUAL

cute goddamn shit
yeah japan is just kinda like that.
nobody but finn was surprised

How about something of Pidge looking straight at Allura squeezing her big purple bottom into that Trooper armor while everyone else has their back turned.

Pidge just grinning at her good fortune that she gets to see the whole show.

hory shit, i've never had anything of mine on saddlpandles before.
>kept all the WIPs
wh-what? I feel like I should be embarrassed or something.

Well this solves the mystery of why the Galra managed to NOT take over the universe despite having a 10,000 year head start on Team Voltron.

They're all retards.

>What are your issues with the music and how do you think it can be improved upon?

People don't like the music? I thought it was fucking rad.

>Katie was a down home farm girl enchanted by stories of space
>Transforms into a completely different person once she adopts Pidge
>now is all of a sudden a tech genius that needs glasses
>no more fire
>still lowers her speaking tone

Just make her a girl again damn it.

Same, I was getting Mass Effect vibes at some of the more ambient tracks. It was great!

Its generic as fuck. Bandfag here, and I can't even remember a single tune after just finishing the series 5 minutes ago.

It was okay. Nothing special. The track where Allura hugs holo-dad to death was pretty good though.

Because the original had an amazing soundtrack this new one is a little lackluster

I imagine all the smart ones got killed off during the wars and all that's left for the breeding pool are these guys. Except the Druids.

That face looks dumb as fuck. You ruined it.

Man, what I wouldn't give to hear Allura say

"Previously, on Voltron: Legendary Defender."

Sure but, it doesn't make sense for binge series to have that, it eats up time that's better spent elsewhere.

I use Chrome, it's probably over a decade old Dell. It's as update to date as it can be after they said Chrome isn't going to support XP.

There's a couple times it went 80s revival didn't it? Even a remix of the original theme would be good. Anyhow, I hope they step their game up.

Man the first 8 minutes of voltron are the most Lance/Pidge stuff ever it's great.


Then plot happened and everything was ruined.

But there's more chemistry between Lance/Keith

>wanting more slice of life
>wanting less action/intrigue

Sup Forums is that way sempai

It's voltron what it needs is more space battles and head forming

>Lance/Pidge
Why do you people exist? They barely interact with each other. There's literally no moment of long conversation with them, let alone shipping moments. Lance barely acknowledges Pidge.

Honestly I think it's just one guy with major self insert issues.

Oh shit I made it to sad panda

That is not sad panda you silly goose.

I want to hold hands with pidge

>thread hates lance/Pidge
I see why the other guy left lmao.


What a shame.


Fun is over

>cliffhanger

This is why I hate watching ongoing series.

How come Hunk didn't get the Gurren Lagann thing when he activated his special weapon?

I like it.

But I don't really care for discussing ships on these threads.

That's not sadpanda.

This
Its one of the things I love about the reboot. The way Zarkon talks about Voltron how he was able to not only take on a lion by himself but pretty much beat him shows that team Voltron is in their infancy. I can't wait to see the become stronger and unlock the full potential of Voltron

Loving this show's character designs.

Because he's not Kirby youtube.com/watch?v=sWPwy4dL6AE

What's she really got to complain about?

Shiro's a supersoldier, Keith's an ace pilot, Pidge is a genius, Hunk's a competent mechanic and Lance is premium eye candy (and he's good and plans and shit I guess).

Allura hit the jackpot.

Also Green One turns invisible but they're apparently not smart enough to make it work on all the Lions.

Its the shield right before the face is shown

>Also, they've got a giant sword and a giant cannon with homing lasers.
That's the shit is talking about.
What if Zarkon's Voltron didn't have any of that shit because it's all based on whoever's piloting.

"Beware! The lions shoot laser beams! Evade them!" isn't really helpful advice, Zippy.
Also, Zarkon probably prefers watching his army fight the lions blind just so he can find out which are the strongest warriors that prevail against the lions without assistance. He's kind of a dbag.

The Black Lion ultimately refusing Zarkon's orders is probably the point where he'll start to realise that he is in fact the garbage.

bit of an overabundance of swoosh mouth in this PARTICULAR shot..

I'm assuming the druids are Alteans that were brought into the empire and, after millennia of living alongside Galrans, are permanently in that blue skinned form.

Damn.

I hope all of Zarkon's fleshy soldiers are bachelors.

Or there's going to be a lot of angry little ankle biters that'll want vengeance for their daddies.

Team Voltron has probably killed at least a few hundred Galra by now.

What's your favorite episode of this season, anons? Mine's "The Fall of the Castle of Lions" and "Tears of the Balmera". Despite not even involving the Lions or Voltron, it was still one of most tense and interesting parts of the series. Lance is down, the team can't access their lions, and even if they could, one of their members is in critically condition. The whole infiltration, the characters talking about missing their homes, and Pidge's flashbacks were all great. It's too bad they lose that kind of atmosphere later on.

Swoosh mouth?

I feel kind of bad for the Alteans, but if they were stupid enough to trust someone who looked like Zarkon to do something good, they kind of had it coming.

Crystal Venom.

Part of me was thinking that the King AI was too under-utilised to deserve such an episode, but Allura's performance sold the whole conceit for me.

I don't really have any preferred ships, but Lance is probably the only person I could see getting with Pidge.

He has pretty good chemistry with her, and while she gets a lot more development with Shiro, Pidge/Shiro is almost certainly not happening. He's pretty much a dad to the team, and while a surprising number of women may indeed have that fetish, I doubt these guys are willing to drop it in here.

I get the impression either Shiro will end up with Allura or Keith gets pushed toward the princess when he finally gets his character development.

This all said, this one guy constantly whining about Lance/Pidge flying under the radar fanart wise is super fucking annoying.

Allura is getting with Shiro, as they both are leaders

Probably the ones where the castle is invaded. Cool seeing all of the characters use their wits against each other.

I hope that Allura's design isn't so busy that it intimidates the porn from coming in.

I'm going to guess he didn't always look like that. I mean, he doesn't even look like a Galran.

>People don't like the music?
>Because the original had an amazing soundtrack this new one is a little lackluster
absolutely this.
I wouldn't be surprised if the opening theme was pulled from a Korg demo track. Only that's doubtful. The actual theme is somehow even more bland and forgettable.

I don't really want any call-backs to the 80's orchestrated score. These guys won't do it justice and will only disappoint further.

youtube.com/watch?v=vQpvxp3huA4

i dunno what do you wanna call it?
it comes off as a concious effort not to do kawaii triangle anime mouths, but ends up every bit as repetitive and stylized.. but still looks fine so it's fine

Well regular Galrans are evil looking too.

Purple, fangs, Wolverine hair, creepy yellow eyes.

>yfw the main theme starts playing once all the lions get back together and form Voltron once again
>yfw it will be after each of them bond with their lion and become better pilots
>yfw its the "Now this is the true power of Voltron" moment

I like team-building and training episodes.

>youtube.com/watch?v=vQpvxp3huA4

Yeesh. You want some crackers with that cheddar?

Pidge is the only character of the team who hits Lance when he gets distracted or pays attention to a female. She hit once in episode 1 and again, using the robot to smack him, on episode 10 after Lance falls for Hunk's claim that the Princess is crushing on him.

This is a show about how 5 teenagers using the power of friendship to kill god.

my god i could go for some cheese and crackers. and those juicy little bits of ham you can stack with them to make lil sammiches

Because Lance is the only person who has a sexuality, and we all know women hate it when men exercise their sexual agency when it isn't directed at the woman in question.

>yfw they form the sword and it actually BLAZES.
yeah, nah.
this show will somehow out-Korra Korra for the most Korra finale since Korra.
(minus the lesbians... unless, lesbians... ???)

by that logic kasumi is into takeshi
girls are just taught to be hostile towards heterosexuality

I never watched Korra, could you sum it up for me?

If her dad is dead, isn't Allura a queen?

not without a coronation

>Coronation, Starscream?

Who gets to decide when it happens.

Where is her mom

>>This is bad comedy.

If Lance pulled that shit on Pidge, everybody would call him a sexist, violent, woman-hater.

Probably dead. Like the rest of her race.

exactly. without any people to recognize it or put on any kind of ceremony, you can't have monarchy

But the CG in this show is actually good though.

Underwhelming last boss
Stupid CG Doomsday Weapon
No cathartic final battle
The day is won through WORDS and FEELINGS
Turns out the tomboy was gay all along and that's somehow progressive

i hope someday in my lifetime there's a cartoon with a distractingly man-hungry girl which a dude has to keep under control so she doesnt lose her sh- oh my god it's star vs

Pidge says as much in episode 2/4.

>>Megatron is that you??

Also Gravity Falls

Giant Brown Girl. Giant Monster Fight. Giant Robot Fight.

I don't know who to ship Lance with. I want to ship him with everyone on the team

>If her dad is dead, isn't Allura a queen?
I didn't vote for her.

>>Here's a hint!!

Lance is inherently shippable.

>tight, supple bod of chiseled caramel
>friendly, open demeanor
>sole sexually aggressive member of the cast
>hints of insecurity beneath his confident personality, like when he hesitated before shaking Shiro's hand

He was made to be the castle bicycle.

Or maybe she just gets annoyed at Lance being pervy?

You don't vote for Queens.

>Why isn't Zarkon telling his forces EXACTLY what Voltron can do?
Because Voltron can't do everything yet. The paladins are under-experienced, thus have very few actual Voltron abilities unlocked yet.

...

Can someone post those reference sheets in the photo frames?

With the Paladins in their suits

Thought of a cute way that the Blue Lion's "Everyman" feature can be used

>team finds the whereabouts of the captive Holts
>they lose contact with Pidge
>But wait, Lance finds her
>Oh, it's actually Matt
>Lance has his Lion fly Matt back to the Castle while he stays behind to help the others find Pidge and Dr. Holt

Plus, his family proves he's got some gooooooood genes.

You can vote for kings though.

Calling it now, Blue Lion's gimmick is courage.
