Voltron Rant - Tumblr Posts
✨Just a Rant about Shiro's Clone thingy ✨
The potential of kuron (aka shiro's clone) being a LITERAL CHARACTER and can be rename as Ryou (old shiro's actual younger brother on then 80s show) and then have the duo be an adopted found family brothers is sad..
Like idk allura magic her way to find shiro another body thanks to a plot and BOOM two shiros
But it make more sense for shiro to be merged with kuron/ryou ig
But.. I deadass lowkey wished for kuron/ryou/clone shiro to be a character and be shiro's brother like the old show but idk
And then make him find his own identity thay makes him unique from shiro
Since it's canon that ryou have a love interest on the old show there's a literal potential of adding a character name Amue not just for the Ryou/Amue ship but also for ALLURA to have a long distance related or cousin, maybe one of her family survived and throughout the years new generation of that family keep appearing and BOOM amue so that's why their related or some shit
(Lol sorry for adding the Amue and allura distance relative thingy here even though it's supposed to be a Kuron/Ryou post)
(And also for him to be a potential REMAKE of a less bitchy version of shiro's younger brother.. Or just rename him as jiro, kuron, or something else i don't care as long as his a character)
So, I read @leenfiend ‘s comic: What’s ur Type.
And I was thinking a little too hard about the part where they found out Alteans have Marco-Polo too.
A thought dump (and spoilers) 👇
Like, why is that what’s crazy? If I went to space and there were humans with pointed ears, glowy things under their eyes, and magical powers, THATS what would shock me.
How is it that a whole other part of the universe has a planet with similar beings existing on it, and they aren’t related at all?
Also they speak a dialect of English??? HOW DO THEY SPEAK THE SAME LANGUAGE-
I know it’s just a show, and it’s made for kids, but THIS IS A BRAIN TWISTER FOR ME.
Another thing, how tf did the patriarchy also exist on another part of the universe???
This might be a stretch but-
It’s kinda crazy that the patriarchy also occurred for the Galra, like even though Honerva’s Altean, SHES the one who discovered Quintessence, not Zarkon. (I think)
Maybe it’s because he was a paladin of Voltron and he’s Galran? But even so, Honerva killed the other paladins from what I remember, did she not? (So she asserted dominance LOL)
Also Lotor and most of the Galra called Honerva “The Witch”, they didn’t even call her Haggar, but hey called her a WITCH.
Yes, she does magic, and she’s Altean, but we’re there not other druids too alongside her? They never called them witches.
And even the claim that she’s Altean, I know this is a fault of character, but she’s literally proven her loyalty to Zarkon. She works under him, has been with the Galra for numerous years, hell, SHE EVEN HAD A KID WITH HIM. But I guess they’re so corrupt by the Quintessence that they just forgor!!
Another thing is, there’s mostly men in the Galran army, why is that?
I can count on my hands how many (full) Galran women I’ve seen throughout the show.
This is either that the people behind the scenes didn’t bother to draw women, or that Zarkon purposely chose men to fight for him.
Basically what I’m trying to say is, we don’t pay enough attention to how wild the concept of this show is.
Four random ass teenagers and some dude who got abducted were chosen to be in control of this space super weapon that is supposed to defend the universe from this race of aliens that are all chasing after some sort of a space drug that is essentially made up of LIFE FORCE.
DO YOU KNOW HOW CRAZY THAT IS????
Thank you for reading!! 😽
