Season 6, despite its short seven-episode run, packed a lot of interesting sci-fi concepts, emotional character development, and insane action sequences into its storytelling. It brought a flourish of problems, and plenty of visits to Ulaz whenever the blades pressed a little harsher, held him tighter, or on the odd occasion, broke the kits fall by catching him. In the wake of Allura's sacrifice, the Voltron season 8 finale jumps ahead for a one year later epilogue. Let's talk about Shiro. It shows Allura standing firm, dressed in her Paladin armor, and with her long hair flowing behind her. Thats all that matters right?Why was he getting an inkling that he really will regret that for some reason?. After the events at Naxzela someone needs to talk to Keith. Get your heads out of your fanfics. ); perhaps a run-in with Lotor's generals floating out in space, abandoned (and maybe more sparks between Keith and Acxa); and some awkward fallout from the love triangle made by Lotor, Allura, and loverboy Lance. The first movement was harsh for everyone in the base. Family was always important to Lance, often coming up as what he missed most about Earth. (Gryffindor confirmed lol).

Tired. He kept his gaze firmly planted on his plate. When he decided to try and sacrifice himself, he knew it was for the greater good. Nothing but a brief call that was cut short due to her job. Everyones had a moment like that. The first doboshes of his arrival sent the headquarters into a hazard. Want to talk about it? Shiro asked. Ive been seeing people be concerned that Keith almost sacrificing himself was because he felt like others wouldnt care if he died but honestly? Other humans took her mate into one of those trucks and all the scenes in which little Keith would grow up with his father disappeared. When Allura says goodbye to Pidge, she tells her to remain "curious and fearless," which as we see in the year since their battle with Honerva, is exactly what Pidge does. (Gryffindor confirmed lol). And if viewers needed an extra push to see Lotor as the villain he truly is, even after his own generals abandoned him during a particularly overzealous rant, his exposure to unlimited quintessence at the season's end revealed his true nature (like what happened to his father, which was referenced earlier in the season as a reminder) and drove him completely mad. However, Keith was not denied comfort. "Coran was it?" Allura then explains that she, with Honerva's help, will transform the Quintessence inside Honerva's mech from a destructive force into a life-giving one - a technique she learned from Lotor, but one that will inevitably cost her her life. Proceed at your own risk. Keith might have been the leader, but Lance . After long last, my Big Bang is DONE! It's about saving the world. This transforms Honerva back in to her true, Altean self, healing the corruption caused by the Quintessence. Then Zarkon brings Honerva to Lotor, explaining to the young boy that his mother has returned. With Zarkon in a comatose state under the care of Haggar, the . Keith saw something there and he extended his arms toward the image with big salty tears, caressing the sides of his flushed face. Keith didnt know why exactly it was just two years instead of annually like any other college and if Keith was being even more honest right now, he didnt exactly know much up to that point either. i hope that whoever reads this enjoys it & a big thanks to @nalloenoe for being my proofreader (tho i gotta add were both dutch and also she has dyslexia so theres a big chance there are some grammar mistakes there lmao let me know if u do). He never loses his sense of humor, either, instead coming to better understand the right and wrong times to crack a joke. But none of that would be enough to save her or her kit. "And it isn't yours.". In the wake of Allura's sacrifice, the Voltron season 8 finale jumps ahead for a one year later epilogue. While on a diplomatic mission with Kolivan, Keith gets hit on by one of the local aliens. (AKA the fake dating AU that no one asked for). Voltron: Legendary Defender S02E03 (Tagalog Dubbed) Maklum balas; . In the year following Allura's sacrifice, Keith brings together the remnants of the Galra Empire, uniting them with a call to do away with their "survive at all cost" mentality and join the Galactic Coalition. They need to break his bond, but the process ends up being heart wrenching for Keith. Dried tear tracks and hunger consumed his small existence. Then a good friend suggests that Keith sell his virginity at an auction to pay for it. Crunchy lives here. Steven Universe is owned by Cartoon Network, Rebecca Sugar, and any and all other respective owners. He'd go on to pass the trials and it'd be revealed he was the son of Krolia, a female agent who ended up on Earth as part of her duty, where she got pregnant. He got badly injured, but saved Coran. For a show as popular and beloved as Voltron, it's impossible to please everyone, but for the most part, Voltron season 8 builds to an ending that's shocking, emotional, and a fitting conclusion for what has been a truly excellent series. Keiths existence gave the blades something else to look up to after every mission. Later in the series, Keith joins the Blade of Mamora to better understand his Galran half and so Shiro can return as the Black Paladin and leader of Voltron. Keith is found out to be an omega by Sendak. [11] The comic book version of Keith depicts him as 26 and a very asocial character in the beginning. It couldnt be helped. While his motive may have been the same since his character's introduction--to provide for the people of the empire by gaining access to quintessence resources--the means to that end painted the Galra prince with a fitting villainous brush. When they finally catch up with her, Honerva's mech proves too much for even this souped-up Voltron and she escapes. His eyes turned into violet slits as his canines showed through his smirk. Feeding and changing the kit was paramount even when Keith refused to be put on one of the beds. As a substitute, he opted to begin his blade training. Voltron: Legendary Defender is owned by DreamWorks, Studio Mir, and any and all other respective owners. A spark. Consisting of a small bed and a place to hang Krolias blade. Says the man who's never been knotted before, Lance sniffs.Cant miss what you cant experience. Keith smirks. He focuses on his own business and needs very little outward validation or comfort from others. Behind closed doors, theyre a little less reserved. Keith was the youngest blade Kolivan had ever worked with. Keith missed everyone while he was with the Blades of Marmora.

Alright, you may say "There's a difference between putting your life at risk and killing yourself for the mission", but you guys are forgetting this self-sacrificing stuff isn't new either. this pre-kerb face is exactly as he was when Keith and him got close.). Afterwards, Keith continued to practice many other forms of martial arts until he turned 18 and enrolled in the United States Marine Corps, spending several years as a reconnaissance specialist. i just want someone to acknowledge the fact that he was ready to die for all of them. Deal with it. he asked shakily. But at the same time? Allura shares a tearful goodbye with each Paladin - especially Lance, professing her love for him and bestowing on him his own Altean markings - before she harnesses the Quintessence and restarts all of existence. He has the ability to focus on the bigger picture (i.e. Hes saving the rest of the world and his friends, which is exactly how hes always been. As Kolivan saw it, Keith didnt lose a soldier, he lost an uncle; as Keith called him. Her favorite TV shows are animated, and she can spend hours and hours watching documentaries. He faced hologram!Shiro telling him to give up the knife, and then his dad telling him to wait while the world outside was crumbling. Its about saving the world. Keith has always been a risk-taker and self-sacrificial. Allura and Honerva - as well as the spirits of King Alfor, the original Paladains, Zarkon, and Lotor - all disappear in a flash of light as tendrils sprout forth from the core of all existence, restoring each universe that was previously severed and destroyed. With his Paladin days behind him, Lance returns to his family farm to live a simple life. Kolivan knew Keith was emotional, more from his Terran side than his Galran one. However, Keith has no qualms about flying off cliffs (his excited yup when he sees the edge in the beginning of episode 1), competing with Lance during their blind-lion training session, and also, most notably, jumping into a one-on-one fight with Zarkon with the explanation if I have an opportunity to defeat Zarkon, Im gonna take it. His deep immersion in the fight is also what spurs him on into basically evolving with Red and hardcore blasting Zarkon. But everything is about to change, putting their bond to the test as their world turns upside down. They had been receiving intel about the whereabouts of the Red Lion for two deca-phoebes. Or they have a medical emergency?Lance eyes him. After all, the best course of action after a fallen member was to do their best to accomplish their goal. [6] After finding Shiro on Earth along with Lance , Hunk, and Pidge, he joins Voltron as the Paladin of the Red Lion to fight against the Galra Empire. When they visit Oriande in season 5, Allura's full potential is unlocked, allowing her to later perform incredible feats like reviving Lance from the brink of death and transferring Shiro's consciousness into his clone's body. Lances voice actor actually joked about Lance dying. The first episode in Netflix is triple-length, creating a cumulative runtime for the season equal to the industry standard of 13 episodes, while other streaming services such as iTunes and Amazon have three separated episodes with the normal length of 23 minutes. In that original cartoon, Chip was a pilot on a team called Vehicle Voltron, where 15 vehicles of land, sea, and air combined into one ginormous robot. Keith in heat is mewling and desperate and docile, malleable under Shiros hands like freshly dampened clay. Crossing the event horizon takes them all to a strange realm which Allura describes as the "connected consciousness of all existence." They introduced healing pods to us and showed the team bonding better. In the epilogue, Pidge is installing the A.I. Once planet Earth was but a dot in the dark canvas of space, Zarkons forces rained on her. Spoilers ahead if you're not caught up with Season 6 of Voltron. This is from when Miguel(merkymerx) and I cosplayed Shiro and Keith from Voltron: Legendary Defender! He has learned to accept his place collared and imprisoned within the Empire and at the whims of their breeding program, despite the memories that haunt him in his darkest hours. Prorok, who is remade into a Ro-Beast, finds the Paladins and quickly gains the upper hand, until Ulaz sacrifices himself to destroy the monster. Keith was willing to sacrifice himself so we could see how he really is putting the mission before anything (blade training) and for Lotor to make his proposal. Lance considered himself too greedy for Keiths attention to consider going on double-dates. Not all the blades could interact with the kit anymore, and the ones that could, showed a great bout of self-restraint and patience. Combining this with his selflessness, if he had to choose between himself and his team he would choose his team. He eventually retires as Black Paladin to marry Allura and become her king consort. "That- What is that?" Work Search: tip: "uchiha sasuke/uzumaki naruto" angst kudos>10. Perhaps, then, what the future really holds for Lance is for him to split his time between Earth and New Altea, helping Coran to restore the world Allura loved so much. For a moment, Keith forgot about the fact that he was supposed to be disinterested in the presentation. Despite Voltron: Legendary Defender having a lighthearted and humorous tone, there are some moments where it hits very close to the heart. Hes a huge risk taker, willing to push his limit/luck to achieve the best possible outcome. (A day late because i thought i was posting on saturday) Go see @opaldelight beautiful accompanying art here. It was barren of the holographic capabilities to display ones deepest fears and hopes. That'll give us a good chance for the Paladins themselves to get caught up with newcomers like Krolia and Romelle (the name of the princess of the planet Pollux in the original series, along with her brother Bandor), and the newly reunited Shiro. This isn't his Keith. Of all the Voltron Paladins, Hunk's future feels not only the most appropriate but the most satisfying. He is taken by the Druids to be prepared for a high ranking officer when they discover something wrong. Inside this dimensional space, there are no mech suits or weapons, just Honerva and the Paladins. Practically brainless. So in light of the Season 6 finale (which was really like a three-episode conclusion), we're taking a more focused look at the events that transpired within it to see how they tied up the story so far and what they suggest for the future ofVoltron. (thank you @misterpoofofficial for help on the episode search! In the end he chose Voltron, proclaiming I know who I am. THAT is when the Blade activates for him. But Lotor won't accept this Honerva, recognizing that some other universe's Honerva can't simply show up and expect to be his new mother. A year later, they're holding elections on Daibazaal (seemingly restored alongside Altea) and Keith's mother, Krolia and his mentor, Kolivan are elected as the Galra's first representatives to the Galactic Coalition.

In the end he chose Voltron, proclaiming I know who I am. THAT is when the Blade activates for him. will they also ever bring up how Lance died? It seems like so far, weve seen him trying to reconcile the BOM/Voltron conflict and trying to balance both in his life. He was sure that if anyone shared his feelings on Feelings, it would be Kolivan. He frowns and climbs to his feet, stumbling when a wave of dizziness assaults him. Like with quintessence or a healing pod. it would prove for a very wholesome moment. The final season saw him take his biggest leap when he professes his love to Allura, allowing himself to be open and vulnerable around her. Lance can appear arrogant and flirtatious on the outside. When it turns out Shiro is a clone under Haggar's control, Keith returns as the Black Paladin. Keith calmed down immensely, and he was flabbergasted by the change that will make him look like the other blades. They had no blood connection as many of the blades, and yet, Keith mourned for vargas. No worries because there's plenty of story left to tell!
