Who will pilot the Blue Lion this fall? https://youtu.be/LDO2tB7g4kw

>>15604727
Your mother, she'll ride anything.

>>15604772
She must be a pretty good pilot then.

>>15604795
she can handle a joystick

>>15604727
It's Allura. Not a big mystery.
People were thinking that they wouldn't swap lions, though, and have been shocked to the very core by this trailer.

>>15605433

It's not that we thought they wouldn't do it, we thought it would just be messy if they did.

>>15605433
It feels forced. Lance honestly has more potential to be an interesting character staying in Blue rather than the biring predictable arc of going to Red. Plus Lance fits Blue much more than Red while Allura fits Red much more than Blue.

>>15605450

they made too much of a thing about making the lion's BOND with their pilots for Lance to ever even consider leaving Blue but at the same time made to much of a fuss over Red being difficult for anyone but Keith to ride it

>>15604727
if they are switching lions around, hopefully they'll switch their uniforms to match which lion they're piloting, it not matching in the original series has always bugged the crap out of me

and yes I do legitimately have autism

>>15604727
>Western shit
Not /m/

>>15605483
Also Lance continually shows a lot of heart like the Blue lion's friendly nature while Allura has shown more anger and impulse like how the Red lion likes its pilots.

>>15605489
We're on 4chan we all have it

>>15605483
I don't know
They keep being us over the head that the Princess is feisty and stubborn
Which ate pretty much reds requirements

>>15605503
I mean I've been legitimately diagnosed for it, and even receive disability money from the government for it

>>15605490
>Has more robots then toku

Maybe they can form that Snake train hunk suggested and go find a new red lion pilot

>>15605503
At least some of us are more functional than others.

>>15605505
In any case, we'll see how this development will unfold. The staff probably is hesitant about possibly annoying the older fanbase if Allura gets to form the head.

>>15605521
>Allura gets to form the head.
Power Rangers showed us that you can't have a black character use a black robot.

>>15605509
>implying toku isn't /m/

>>15605509
Its western shit so its not /m/

>>15605505

They need to downplay her as "feisty" and cute and let lose the anger she should have from losing her family, her world and thousands of years of her life.

If shiro really dies, the tears will be delicious.

>>15605766
you're gonna be disappointed

>>15605772
I just want the gay shippers to suffer. Is that too much to ask?

What even suggests they're going to shuffle pilots in that trailer? Is it just that there's no sign of Shiro but there is of Voltron?

>>15606016
That's probably the basis of their assumption, yeah.

>>15605772
If you mean, the leaks, no I didn't expect him to die at the end of season 2. I just expect him to die eventually.

I wonder if this stays popular long enough if they'll introduce other mecha with more combinations

>>15607664
Netflix approved six more season.

>>15607664

would be neat to see a Vehicle Voltron episode and fuck maybe that Gladiator shit that never happened

>>15607664
It's not impossible, but I imagine the lesson they'd take from this is looking more into modern revivals of other cartoon properties that were popular in the west in the 80's rather than making more mecha shows.

Reminder that this was a thing that literally went nowhere
Seriously, it shows up on the moon and fights Lion Voltron, moves to Planet Doom and slaughters numerous Drule citizens as Lotor angrily cries for them, fights Lion Voltron again on Earth, gets its arm removed and retreats as the leftover lion/tiger gets destroyed with the pilot being killed.
I think it was hinted at being a Voltron from another universe alongside Vehicle Voltron?
The second to last issue literally concludes with Keith (who looks like Spock for some reason) shooting Shiro.
It probably got cancelled early on due to low sales but damn it was confusing
>>15607961
Vehicle Voltron may take a few more seasons to introduce considering the showrunners have no nostalgia for it (they don't hate it, they just don't care about it)

>>15608578
*shooting Sven

>>15608578

Frankly I find it hard to feel any nostalgia from Lion force the way they're running the show.

>>15608553
Wasn't a lot of that caused by a creative team that couldn't work together?

It getting ghettoed likely didn't help either.

>>15608587
There's a Netflix show about the staff gushing over it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqsRPjWNOoE
I don't have Netflix so I don't know what's it like

>>15608588
Wasn't one of the head writers a Tygrafag who kept shitting over Lion-O throughout the show?
>>15608553
One of the reasons why it failed was because of low toy sales as well

>>15608594

If they love it so much why did they turn it into Avatar with giant robots

>>15608597
>Wasn't one of the head writers a Tygrafag who kept shitting over Lion-O throughout the show?

That was what I referring to. I think I remember that that one was so bad that Tygra's VA was sick off it.

I'm hoping for a genuine tragic hate-war romance between these two.

Perhaps they got the idea of why Lance could pilot the Blue lion backwards? It's not that Blue will take anyone but all the lions are willing to take Lance.

>>15608578
That other Voltron is ugly as shit

>>15609201
I'd be into that. Take the one-off they did last season and run with the idea that he's the ultimate second banana.

>>15609201
>all the lions are willing to take Lance.
They already implied that is Keith's thing in interviews.

>>15607961
I feel like an updated Stealth Voltron is more likely since it's easy to explain away as a power up similar to Black Lion's wings.

>>15608597
>One of the reasons why it failed was because of low toy sales as well
This was CN and Bandai's fault really. The first wave flew off the shelves and then Bandai had nothing to follow it for the longest time. And CN went way too long between episodes and the show really only had a handful of solid episodes.

>>15610000
Why the fuck does everyone hate the new cats so much? Pumyra and Lynx-O are pretty damn cool. Bengali is a total fag though.

>>15608578
I had the first issue and I dropped it right away. It was the most boring POS I'd read in quite some.

>>15604727
Allura, though that begs the question of if she needs to be in the Castle Ship to make wormholes if they need a speedy getaway and if she's tight enough with the team for them to form Voltron.

>>15605489
In the leaked preview, they didn't. Lance and Keith were shown in their original suits while in Red and Black's cockpits. I doubt they're going to change them since Shiro's disappearance will be a temporary thing that will get resolved midseason if S1-2 are any indications.

>>15607664
Doubt they'll expand Voltron's size, but Lo-Tron will probably show up at some point.

>>15610000

They really did not like Pumyra

Wrong. It's Lance.

>>15610000
Christ, the writers that came on after the pilot were legit insane.

>>15610000
So, basically is a good thing it got cancelled, I can imagine the shitstorm that would've occurred if this actually happened in the show

>>15611154
actually , that sounds waay to cool, now i kinda want to see this game of thronesque take on thundercats.....or silverhawks for that matter...
at the very least i got a thundertank , so i´m grateful

>>15611030
Lance can't pilot two lions simultaneously.

>>15611191
It sounds cool in theory, but knowing the writers it would have been just another excuse to shit on Lion-O for things out of his control.

> games of thronesque
> Silverhawks

God, hell no. Sci-fi cop show or bust.

>>15611545
Lance Blue
Allura Red
Trailer is baiting like they did with Shiro dying last season

>>15612040
>S2 trailer implies Shiro death
>S3 trailer outright shows Lance piloting Red
There's a difference. If there's any reason why they would have that footage and not have Lance filling in Red until they get Shiro back, then it would be because there's an episode in which everyone tries out each other's Lions. We'll see in August.

>>15607664
Rewatching the trailer I saw people mention the sixth Lion off to the side, so maybe one more addition to Voltron.

>>15605785
Hope for everyone to be straight in the show then. It's what I'm hoping for. I don't want these idiots to get the satisfaction of canon fagshit.

I kinda hope the swapping lion bullshit will be temporary. This show did that whole MUH BOND shit, so it'd feel stupid to undo that just to have the same people pilot the lions as in the old show.

>>15622003
>This show did that whole MUH BOND shit
People read far too much into that plot point. A pilot can have bonds with more than one Lion and vice versa. In fact, you would think that Volron would work better as a unit if every pilot held a connection with each of the Lions that make it up.

>>15622010
That's a fair point. I can accept lion swapping much easier if they approach it from that angle.

>>15622014
But they aren't going to and they already have put so uch emphasis on single pilot-lion bonds.

>>15604727

Is there a definite turning point for this series? I'm halfway through Season 1 and it seems prety terrible so far. Not a weeb either, I watched all of ATLA and Korra which were both fine.

>>15624507
If you think Korra was fine and better than Voltron it might just be something wrong with your brain

>>15624507
I think westerns are so starved for action shows that they'll accept anything and call it spectacular.

>>15624507
I didn't like it at first either but it started clicking. It may have just been Stockholm syndrome.

>>15624507
It starts picking up towards the end of the season. If you're expecting a spectacular show you'll be sorely disappointed. It's a marginally above average show, nothing more, nothing less. S2 had a couple episodes I enjoyed (Space Mall, Weblum, the final battle was kinda fun) but focuses a lot on worst boy.
>inb4 but Keith isn't Lance
Two seasons couldn't fix Keith, my hopes aren't high for him getting any better.

>>15625892
I'm mostly watching for Pidge. Too bad her focus episode in S2 was so bland.

>>15625879
There are action shows, but last I checked it's a matter of having to choose between mediocre at best capeshit or mediocre at best live action.

The majority of the Western VLD fanbase are retarded mechafetuses who have never watched anything /m/-related outside of Bayformers or maybe Pacific Rim (at most) and have little to no standards for anything related to animation, storytelling, or /m/ and are only watching because "ATLA/Korra staff" or their friends are watching it and they're insecure bandwagoning faggots who need to have their tastes and interests perfectly align with their social group.

>>15624507
Voltron is so much better than Korra that it isn't even funny, and I can see the glaring flaws in Voltron. So it sounds like it's you.

Episodes four and five of season one were great, as were the last three episodes of the season.

>>15626501
>Two seasons couldn't fix Keith, my hopes aren't high for him getting any better.

And to top it all of, they'll probably throw a Lotor rivalry into the mix because it wasn't as if he had enough subplots revolving around him all ready.

>>15626756
I'm almost hoping for the Lotor/Allura rivalry I've seen people say they want. Not because I'm enamoured with Allura, just because I can't stand someone as dull as Keith being up against the next major antagonist. He can't even dish out bantz properly.

Delicious brown elf Allura is pretty great.

It's even better, actually: she's a shapeshifter.

>>15626956
I wonder if someday for one episode she will shapeshift into a white girl with blonde hair as a reference to the old series

Shapeshifted Galra Allura is so much better than brown Allura.

It probably won't happen. I think Lauren Montgomery has a hateboner for old Allura, hence the changes.

They're a /co/ tripfag who is anon on /m/, so discarding opinions is the best option.
