Don’t attract fujoshi fans. Don’t acknowledge fujoshi fans.. Don’t cater to fujoshi fans.

Wait, so this time it was THEM behind the shit? Not the garbage fandom? It was all them? And still nothing from Lauren Montgomery, huh?

Allura's shitty and overwhelmingly pointless death also tanked them even if Shiro had never been gay, they just outright provably lied about the gay"roadblocks" existing, something /vld/ was bickering over for years

Can someone give me a summary? I don't watch Voltron so I don't really understand any of the plot details that this article is listing.
Basically I'm gathering that a character was revealed as gay and his friends didn't like it?

People went into giant robot space opera expecting fags licking each others assholes. They didn't get this until season seven, and one of the fags promptly died. Netflix promotes the show by putting rainbow colors in the thumbnails for it and shit. Creators try to give the show a band aid by having a main fag character marry a literal whovian. It doesn't work.

Basically, it's fucking nothing.jpg

So it's kinda like most LGBT-targeted stuff today, where they marketed it is this big inclusive project that was born out of love, but just played it safe and reaped that sweet LGBT support cash?

>Basically I'm gathering that a character was revealed as gay and his friends didn't like it?

The leader of the Voltron team was finally shown to be gay in the final episode, and had a brief cutscene of his gay wedding where he married some background character guy that never got any other screen time.

Fags and fujoshis are mad as fuck that he wasnt gay for the entire series, and that there werent more gay/trans/BBQ2 characters for the entire run. They are also mad as fuck that their gay ships between characters on the team didnt become real.

Is it weird that I was totally okay with Shiro being the gay guy? Like I normally hate it when they force gay stuff into a series and being obnoxious about it, but Shiro is one of the better written characters so them making him gay didn't change who he is, its just like a natural aspect of him.

No there are several mads all over the place

More like they never even marketed it that way until season seven, after the rabid fandom had glommed onto the show and demanded this shit for years. It all failed.

They didn't reap shit they got dragged over coals publicly for months because they overpromised, super funny

>Fags and fujoshis are mad as fuck that he wasnt gay for the entire series
...Are they implying he just switched teams for the hell of it? Maybe he just wasn't over-flamboyant and shoving it in everyone's face the whole time, and was gay for the whole series.
>them making him gay didn't change who he is, its just like a natural aspect of him.
Is this not what the community wants? It just feels like people are asking for "make them gay and only talk about the fact that they're gay". It's the same reason people don't like when female characters are just there to be "the female character"

>Why are people mad

Getting this out of the way with the wall:
>the episode after the audience is told Shiro is gay, he stops interacting with his male teammates in any meaningful way for the rest of the two seasons despite being very close and supportive prior
>Marries someone who he has never had a conversation with
>The literal who was superimposed in on a poster and in a part of an episode he hadn't existed before to lend the relationship "credibility"
>the literal who is never named, people found out his "name" via the captions
>they killed their lesbians and then hastily and obviously retconned it poorly and shoddily
>every single named gay character dies though shiro is brought back
>Allura's entire death was treated with less severity and emotional anguish from the paladins than the thought of literal randos dying previously
>Allura S1 and S8 as a character are not remotely the same person
>Haggar got a happy ending despite being the cause of all evil in the show
>Lotor's corpse was funny as fuck but made a lot of people mad bc he had a real shit life
>Lance is a farmer thus racism (lel)
>despite the overall theme of the show being family and we can do anything together they all fuck off separately at the end
> taking a selfie with bunny ears in front of allura's grave/statue

I'm sure I'm missing more I'm not including klance delusions

>he married some background character guy that never got any other screen time.
It always pissed me off when fandoms bitch about stuff like that. God forbid creators take a view that the universe exists beyond what is shown. It's like going to your high school reunion, seeing someone you haven't spoken with since graduation, then getting super pissed they married someone they met in college rather who they were dating their senior year.

Sorry, zethrid doesn't die, forgot to amend, she just gets scarred and loses an eye

>Fags and fujoshis are mad as fuck that he wasnt gay for the entire series, and that there werent more gay/trans/BBQ2 characters for the entire run. They are also mad as fuck that their gay ships between characters on the team didnt become real.

This. Retards attached themselves to this show for all the wrong reasons, and in the last two seasons, the creators tried to give them a little bit of fag pandering, but it backfired. the whole thing was a disaster.

The show itself was still kinda fun though, even if the last season was weak.

they literally admitted they did that as "olive branch" to the gay community it was Literally forced pandering for brownie points, people can be mad about that

So I never really kept up with Voltron ever since seasons were dropping like almost monthly. I'm on season 4 about to get to Blacks site. Is it worth it to keep going or drop the show now?

Attached: Voltron point.png (1829x537, 899K)

Drop at end of S6 is generally the best advice. The show could have ended there with very few loose ends

For people who’s name used to mean happy, they’re pissed off a lot

I thought that was a furry in the OP pic

5, 6, and 7 are all better than 4. 8 is on par with 4 or weaker. I guess approach with caution. Depends on how much you liked the rest of the show and how curious you are.

This is all mismanaged expectations rather than any real malice. A minor surprise was ruined by a stupid level of hype.

Showrunners and staff need to make it a policy never to answer conjuncture, fandom shit, and anything that isn't in the show.

It is

Definitely drop at S6 end. Maybe watch episode 1 of 7 for Shiro backstory but then hard drop, no matter what.

>Allura at the top

Eight has a lot of Allura focus but that's not necessarily a good thing in this case. I say if you're gonna drop, drop at the end of seven. Watch the Sendak arc, at least.

Just watch it until it gets too stupid for you to care.

Neither Allura nor Shiro nor Lance get heavy focus in S7. Seriously becomes the keith show from that point on and that guy isn't even on his list

Shiro was Space Dad. Making him Gay Space Dad didn't change the Space Dad.

True. There's a few people still churning it out too. The other shows I follow have slow ass fandoms in comparison.

>Try to find porn of Allura, Plaxum, Nyma, or any of the other dozen cute girls of the show
>90% of the porn is of the male characters fucking

Goddamn I’m glad I waited until the series ran its course and avoided the fandom, because it sounded terrible.

The gay porn made it great, but the western fujos were beyond cancer. Trying to push their ship in the name of "social justice", and calling other ships "toxic" just because they'd get in the way of the ship they wanted.

Just another reminder that pandering to gays or whatever group-of-the-week will do nothing but harm the overall quality of your show.

Attached: 1467314473232.gif (325x252, 891K)

Those are probably the same people who think animated bloopers exist and ask for them. Cartoons and real life are indistinguishable for them.

Voltron was always shit.

When you put it all together like this, I almost wonder if it's Scorched Earth tactics from the Voltron staff fucking everything over for the fandom.

Jesus Christ, move on already.

No, not quite. The show itself has very little romantic content for 90% of the show, and never needed it. It wasn't until the final season that they indulged with both a popular straight pairing and a main character getting gay married. The romance content up until that point was entirely imagined by the fans.

This is now a Shiro thread.

My Shiro's usually come with some Sendak or Ulaz, but okay.

Attached: D207WvJVAAUzJ4e.jpg (2000x1529, 644K)

It doesn't really seem like there's need to actually pander to LGBT people because they will happily ship whatever fucking shit they want.

Shipping, especially gay shipping, is almost like a fight with creators to shove together characters that were never going to happen and they like it that way. The less likely it is to happen the harder and more righteous they feel about shipping it. The more content and raving they do about the show to get attention.

Ok so. Gay characters in fiction have like, a 90% rate of dying tragically if they arn't basically an extra.. There's charts out there made by people autistic enough to count them all.

If they don't die, they get to basically play an extra at best.

Dudes were basically saying "Please god just this once let the faggot not fuck off and do jack shit nothing or die tragically"

And Voltorn said.

"Here are your fags! "They fuck off and do jack shit nothing AND die tragically."

I prefer Sendak but the sluttiest non-tearfully raped Shiro's come with a Keith attatched

It's good until season 6. Season 7 has opinions all over the place because it's weak characterwise but good actionwise, so since it ends on a reasonably conclusive note you can stop there. Watch episodes 7+8 (the two filler ones) of season 8 if you must as they are the only decent ones.

The worst thing about this show being over is the fan art slowdown. Characters like Shiro and Sendak were built for fucking.

Good. Maybe they wont turn a show into gayshit 7 seasons in. Stay in your lane homos.

'I have no interest in exploring LGBT themes or relationships' shouldn't be a controversial statement.

Sadly there wasn't a massive uptick in fan art of Sendak and Lotor. I was hoping there would be, but I guess not. Lotorfags must not like the idea of him being Sendak's cocksleeve, I guess.

Ok ok ok let me get this straight ... or gay here... People kept wanting a gay character to be gay with another character wh seemed to be gay but here is the thing, they wanted Shiro to act more gay? So they wanted shiro to be defined as by his sexuality rather the fact he was flying a robot lion? They want a straw man to have a strawman happy ending instead of defining a man not by his sexuality but by his competence as a leader? What the actual fuck?

Certain niche audiences want to be indulged and are starving for acknowledgement from a real production company. Shows really shouldn’t tease an audience if they’re not going to deliver, or indulge fans at all for that matter. Any time a creator dips into a fandom and shapes the show around it thongs tend to go badly.

no offense but there was no teasing, fans getting their hopes up is their own fault. Putting so much expectations into the show to a point where fans were literally shipping and trying to force the space soap opera to their liking shows that the fans were going out of control. Seriously, there was all this garbage about gay shipping and all this shipping in general the fans forgot that this is a show about a giant fucking robot. In the end it comes down to these, whom lost their shit, as spoiled fans who expected what they wanted.

Not fujoshi because neither series has gay romance

The creators should have never spoken to or interacted with the fans as much as they did in the first place and should have done their own thing.

Not a surprise, people greatly exaggerate how much they have to "fight" for "inclusion." For some reason zoomers think they invented the idea of being gay or something so they totally buy the lie that having gay characters is super progressive and groundbreaking and not something that's been fairly accepted in mainstream media since at minimum the late 90s with shows like Friends and Will & Grace.

Shiro ruined everything.

>literally the only reason to watch the show
ruined it by making people watch it and cause this shitshow in the first place maybe

None of the main characters in supernatural are gay either

Supernatural was queerbaited off the show, same with Teen Wolf. They baited it to get views and had no intention on delivering and pretended they never said shit when it's well-known fujoshi will document everything.

Fifty Shades and Twilight is not fujoshi fodder, you fundamentally misunderstand what a fujoshi is if you think that

Those two shows are so heavy with fujos that I don’t think I’ve seen anyone who liked either product for what it actually was.

Does homestuck count?

What exactly happened with Supernatural and queerbait?

I'm glad I dropped this after season 1

Honestly this. Without Shiro people would've just dumped it after they started sidelining Pidge who is the only other character with anything remotely interesting going on.

The issue is that most Western Media is still is too afraid of losing the Straight Guy market to consider being content with the Fujo Market.

Because like, while a straight girl will look at a lesbian relationship and take it as female empowerment, a straight guy looks at a male relationship and is immediately upset and threatened and will be very vocal in these feelings.

Which is funny considering homosexual behavior in humans developed in a sense to have non competitive males in a group who could both protect the females and children of other males, while not threatening to steal them. But I guess modern guys are too afraid of getting their dick sucked by a dude to understand that benefit anymore.

I heard the first seven seasons of Supernatural are good for general audiences. Just the adventures of two demon hunter bros. It wasn't until later after the show really started going downhill that they really started pandering.

Look, Queer Baitings, Queer Baiting. We live with it, but where the Voltron staff fucked up in one of the last seasons they made a big fucking deal about Shiro being gay, talking about how progressive they were and acted like it was a big part of the show in all the press releases.

Which amounted to a dead boyfriend, and around 3 minutes worth of content. You don't sell yourself as being openly progressive if you aren't gonna deliver. They'd have been better off just being vague as hell and letting the fujos have their dreams

I am so incredibly happy that I will never include or acknowledge LGBT in my works

Both of them lied and encouraged fujos by saying shit along the lines of "oh well if it becomes really popular (the gay ship) then we'll probably put it in ;)" and of course it did and of course they didn't

Which ship? Wouldn't be Wincest for obvious reasons, but that's the one I hear they pandered to the hardest.

Nah, it was Dean/the angel dude

>Faggots ruin yet another franchise and still aren't satisfied

At this point, we need to just fire every gay/lesbian/"genderqueer"/"nonbinary" creator before they tank another show with their entitlement and bad writing.

Voltron was ruined without any gays either way the ending was garbage even completely ignoring their PR fiasco

Seems like most modern dudes are faggots anyway with shit like MGTOW, incels, and just general disdain for women and the concept of "pussy worship". Sounds like they'd be much happier if they just dated and fucked other men.

Someone explain their relationship to me? I know about the Winchester bros and how they'd literally go to hell each other but not how Dean and the angel are gay.

shipping.fandom.com/wiki/Destiel

Enjoy.

The gay community is full of outright misogyny and disgust towards women. It's honestly kinda weird. Now there are some genuine complaints to be had about women as a gay guy, like fujos, aggressive fag hags (which are really just a subtype of fujos 90% of the time), women who treat gay men as accessories or associate with them to shore up their "woke" cred, and women who treat gay bars as their personal safe space, but most of the time it's just general and vitriolic hatred towards women in general that doesn't seem to have a basis in personal experience.

>fans getting their hopes up is their own fault
I generally agree with this but the staff really didn't help with the way they engaged with the fans.

This was a pretty clear cut case of actual queerbaiting

Queerbaiting is usually when they promise homo and pull the rug on you going "nah actually they're just straight/friends". They never promised jack, all they said was that there might be gay stuff, which they eventually delivered. Yeah they overhyped it afterward, but it was still there. So you can complain about that but it wasn't queerbaiting.

I don't care about dicks slapping each other, are there any lesbians in this Voltrons series, I only care if theres lesbians

yes, two sets. one in the show, one hinted about after

Yes and another ambiguous lesbian but you get one tiny scene of them being gay together and they're the three most annoying characters in the whole show.

Are there any shows made specifically for gays that aren't slice of life dramas like The L Word?

He really wasn't that great. When everyone else is shit and Shiro is the below average of course he's going to look like he's the pinnacle of good writing/characterization.

Lord in heaven

The waifus really were top tier.

People aren't mad that they made him gay and didn't have him turn into a flaming faggot, they're mad because they immediately shit the bed with his writing and forced him onto the side lines away from everyone else immediately afterward.

They basically built him and his relationship with the cast up for several seasons, said he was gay, and threw him away.

Wish we got more porn with her and Keith

There's not a lot of good stuff out there but I can post it on Imgur if you want.

Dude, the faggot was a good leader and a great role model.

He was a great faggot, I really don't understand why people are mad, he was a faggot that got to shine and wasn't put down for no reason.

I doubt it's intentional because the showrunners are that hilariously incompetent, but it does look really bad.

Is there a single fan of this show that isn't complete human garbage? Whenever I check these threads I feel like genociding all shippers and I'm a shipper myself.

>I feel like genociding all shippers and I'm a shipper myself.

The problem with shipping now is the fact that they want their favorite pairings to be canon and have the expectation that their fantasy should be reality. This problem(the inability to understand that what YOU the viewer wants, isn't what's going to happen) to affect fandoms in general now, they want their headcanons/theories to be real and when they're not and the show does its own thing, they chimp out in the most embarrassing fashion on social media and the worst of the bunch send death threats to creators.

I'm a shipper too and I never want my ships to be canon in any way and I'm content with them being only in fanfic and fanart.

I really enjoyed the show for what it was, and can't comprehend the need fans have to see any pairing in this show. I don't mind romance in cartoons, but VLD definitely had legs to stand on without romance, at least until they fucked up the final season. Are your brains just addicted to garbage?

So all this time it wasn't Shirautism? It was just Keith protecting the milk supply?

What is it with lesbians and Sheith?

>pure Shirofagging thread without nonsense shipping drama fallout from the still running series, also Krolia and Sendak
Only the most blessed members of this fandom emerged alive, clearly.

>and can't comprehend the need fans have to see any pairing in this show.
>Are your brains just addicted to garbage?

If you read my rant, I wanted no pairings in the show either and was content with fanfic/art not affecting the show in the first place Yeah I like reading about characters fucking and some weird AU's, but that's as far as I'll go. Other than that most cartoons shouldn't try to do romance because they will inevitably fuck up the whole thing and turn something relatively ok into shit.

If they wanted to get around the rabid fandom issue, they needed to stick with no romance but give the characters open ends to let people write their fanfics after the fact.

>the characters open ends to let people write their fanfics after the fact.
Nah, most fic writers don't need canon to write about their favorite character and will write anything about them, no matter what happens.

I think that Voltron made a big mistake trying to pander to fans, instead of just writing about the characters and their overall story. Ignore the fandom and create the story, That's it. Don't try to please everybody because you will please no one in the effort of trying to.

The dramawhores have either migrated elsewhere, or only show up to sperg out about the show or fandom and leave.

The show and fandom were a mess, but at least the show was a mostly fun mess. Plus Sendak is hot.

Season 6 was great, season 7 was questionable, 8 made everybody suicidal.

The whole ending was fujobait trash. Hussie lost his fucking mind.

Attached: throw_up.png (655x795, 22K)

S8 was a joyless season on top of piddling away all its time on subplots nobody cared about, minor characters who didn't matter, characters who were already dead, or characters who were being set up to die. Also no good fights or action like S7.

Characters died making people asshurt, ships lost, and they didn't get the amount of pandering they wanted.

Season eight was kinda weak in general too though, to be fair.

Explain further.

Dave goes on a rant about toxic masculinity before Act 7; the epilogue has him pining over Karkat like the worst of fujo-tier shipbait. It actively dismantles and ridicules the straight relationships, while propping up the kind of low effort LGBTQ rep you'd expect from someone who has never once interacted with that community. Even the story itself gets entangled in the web of shipping drama that kills off pretty much any likability the characters once had.
It's basically a fantasyland for straight women who fetishize wimpy gay bottoms.
with the added bonus of making Roxy trans out of nowhere, though that's less fujo and more straight up retarded.

Men are more visual so just some nice ass and titties will get fans; there's plenty of teaspoon-shallow characters who are well-loved simply for their designs, and their fans will often acknowledge this. "If only this great design had a good character it'd be even better", but they still love that design regardless.

Women are typically more attracted to intangible factors like status and power. You can't just put some beefcake in the show and win over fans. There needs to be an atmosphere surrounding the character that they dig.

You're gonna have to be more specific.

A good design may get their attention, but what they really want is tragic backstories. Why do you think Langst was a thing?

I think women do look more at character. Physical appearance does play a huge part too, but they definitely obsess over the personality quirks more.

However in that same vain, its not hard to write characters that women find appealing since most tend to fall within common tropes: Misunderstood villain/psychopath, badass antihero who is also empathetic etc.

>audience approval
Literally who fucking cares.
The only way it would not have been abyssmal is if every character turned out to be gay or transsexual.

I dropped Voltron in the middle of S3 but I know the fanbase is without a doubt the most autistic congregation of humans ever

people's ships didn't come through

It explains why Loki and Sherlock were so popular, cause they're definitely not attractive

Can you seriously look at season 8 and still say with a straight face it's anywhere near the same level of quality as the earlier seasons.

>Why do you think Langst was a thing?
It was? I don't read tumblr.

>Women are typically more attracted to intangible factors like status and power

That shit's for normie women, fujos look at status and power and want to tear it down and see the boy get abused, woobified, and raped. It's pretty much the same as degenerate men who get off on seeing strong female characters get absolutely destroyed.

A reversal is still basing value on the original thing.

For some it's self insertion (the vast majority of Lancefags seemed to be doing this), for others it's the appeal of seeing a physically strong guy being beaten down to the point where he's cute and you want to protect him (the appeal of character like Loki, Bucky, Kylo), and the other is just the id wanting to see a guy you're most attracted to get fucked good. It helps if the character's backstory or whatever lends itself to them being put in vulnerable positions. Shiro has the prison rape thing, Loki has the being Thanos' bitch thing, Kylo has being Snoke's bitch thing, Bucky has the mindrape and torture thing.

It's really impossible to box what women want.

Well yeah, but one involves wanting to get with a guy because he's rich and a good provider, the other is quite a different beast. In some ways, I feel sorry for normie women, they're missing out.

Most of the time I see him fucking Hux because hate-is-love or him fucking Rey because bad-boy more than making him weak.

Hey, I've been getting wet over just seeing cartoon titties bounce since I was a kid. Men's bodies are just shit at being stimulating to look at.

Any idea why so many lesbians seem to love yaoi?

Dyke here, I don't get it either. Might be that fictional men are highly idealized and look/behave nothing like actual men, might be that it's the gateway to discovering homosexuality, or that male characters tend to be more interesting or better written than most female ones and there's very little substantive female/female interaction in a lot of media.

It's really baffling because girls are what get me off most irl and 3DPD men do zilch for me, yet I still like yaoi.

Male characters generally get better writing.

I've seen plenty of lesbos go gaga over yaoi shipping when it comes to background characters because they have handsome designs so who knows.

Marry me.

Okay, but you better not have a penis.

Everything is more attractive in 2D.

My theory is lesbians are visual creatures like men are and are immediately aroused at the sight of the female body, but they also still carry that innate female desire to enjoy erotic literature or shipping interesting characters they like, ergo you get this bizarre mix of gay women who enjoy shipping two men together.

I know gay guys who ship girl characters together, but none of them care about yuri or draw/consume porn of ladies. The ones that do tend to view themselves as bisexual rather than gay.

I can get the shipping aspect but not why so many of them enjoy porn with fat dicks out.

There's lesbians who like futa.

Yeah it's called hurt and comfort fic. The strange ones are when you have characters who experience it in the canon but yet fans go out of their way to make a separate character the subject of it.

What is it called when I want my favorite character to suffer and the comfort is never part of the plan?

A ton of it, and it pissed off fans of other characters too because it got very tropey and they didn't like how their faves were being demonized for cheap angst.

Thats the one!

Oh shit that one too

I never got Klance or Sheith. Those characters barley had anything platonic or romantic moments and most of their interactions are friendly gesture. Matter of fact, I don't get how anyone would think Lance is gay. He spends the majority of the show flirting with alien chicks or Allura. Sometime I think the Voltron fan base never cared about the show and were only watching it for hot men to fuel their fujo needs.

Lance is very flamboyant which SJWs, being actually homophobic, take as being "coded gay".

People finally realized all the important plot hooks the show set up weren't ever going to be followed up on and that it only wasted its time on the ones that didn't matter, like some random monster of the week. Not only that but the show had the audacity to introduce huge new ones at the last second that it also dropped within like six episodes.

You already got fat tits. They were attached to Shiro.

It already had fat tits. Sendak and Zarkon probably had nice fat tits too, but we never saw under their armor.

This. The fan theorizing was propping up the storyline and made people far more easy going about a weak story than they'd be otherwise. People didn't realize LM and JLS weren't actually going to deliver until it was too late.

Big problem with the show was true foreshadowing aspects got presented the same as stuff that isn't supposed to matter so it's impossible to tell what is and isn't important. Sometimes it stuck to traditional storytelling but you'd also have them treating some foreshadowing like background lore while things that ultimately didn't matter got entire seasons of focus only to be ignored or actively disregarded later on.

Man. I like sci-fi and giant robots as much as the next guy but I'm glad I didn't invest 8 seasons watching this thing. It seems like all anyone ever mentions about it is gay shipping drama. I assume it must be pretty mediocre or else someone would mention something else occasionally.

Lauquim were relying too much on rule of cool. It seems like they went for a lot of their narrative choices based on how cool/dramatic it would look on screen rather than how well it fed into the story they were trying to tell. Like with the Matt death fakeout.

>Ezor makes a big fucking deal about how Lotor is going to come back and take his revenge on his former crew

Shot themselves in the foot there.

no? they wanted adam or whatever his name was to not die. and then have a wedding with shiro at the end. which the writers probably could have done, if they weren't addicted to shiro suffering

The problem was also that if they were going to rely on Rule of Cool then they should've filled the show with enough Cool Moments to make it worthwhile. The story wasn't that important and they kept falling back on It Just Works logic especially whenever the Alteans got involved so that would've been their excuse to just overload the show with enough cool shit happening that people wouldn't have a reason to nitpick.
Season 7 had a lot of boring bullshit but was able to get away with it because it had enough hype moments to makeup for it. Season 8 failed because it was sloppy AND boring. The only "cool" moment all season long was Atlastron but nobody cared about that because even the show didn't give it half the fanfare it ought to have.

Attached: 1545039257774.png (1920x1080, 2.18M)

Killing adam would have been fine if they just set up the romance plot. But they baited without any intension to deliver until they realized it'd get backlash.

Voltron is a good example of trying to have your cake and eat it too. But it had a shitload of problems.

given that adam dies heroically, i think they authentically thought it was a great idea and weren't trying to bait or whatever.

Attached: 1552374794963.jpg (840x958, 188K)

They exaggerated how important Shiro's boyfriend was going to be when his only scenes were the short breakup scene already shown, another short scene where he dies, and a scene of Shiro being sad about him for five seconds.
It's complicated because one of the suits nohomo'd the original Shiro/Adam scene, then they rewrote Adam to be his platonic bestie at the Garrison, then decided he should die to show how dangerous the Galra invasion was. So you're right about. Although even then it's still stupid because the first six seasons already did that enough, and besides they should've picked someone who shows up enough for people to actually give a shit. Later on they were told it was OK to make Shiro and Adam gay after all so they re-edited the original dialogue back in because they thought having a good gay and a buried gay was better than no gays at all. Which would've been fine if they didn't go and overhype the buried gay or how prominent his relationship with Shiro was anyway, knowing the above was all they had.
They also buried another gay or two, and this particular one is 100% their fault and not the suits or anything.

>The only healthy relationship is the lesbians who are perfect in every way, never argue, and were extremely well-adjusted compared to the rest of the cast
Hussie is something else

Anyone who's paid attention to people talking about pop culture over the past five years should have known dead gays would cause problems.

Mediocre is pretty fair. It's not altogether terrible aside from the last season, it's more that it does some things very well and some things very badly and they cancel out, so if you're like me and happen to enjoy the stuff they got right then it's enough.
The shipping happened mainly because the show has appealing character designs that make people lust after them and want to see them fuck, and anything that had to do with Korra will automatically attract a large fanbase of shippers. Plus a period between S2 and S7 where Klance shippers were going around telling outsiders to watch this show because those two were canon gay, only for them to either stomp off in disappointment when it turned out not to be the case or if they did like it they got fanatical about another ship instead.

Yeah and it's why I don't have a whole ton of sympathy for them. I can get the Adam situation was them being caught between a rock and a hard place but there's no excuse for any of the Zethrid/Ezor storyline turning out the way it did. They didn't have anyone blocking them from doing what they wanted or a good story reason to do it, they just wanted to kill a lesbian that badly.

Live by the fad, die by the fad.

>Zethrid/Ezor storyline turning out the way it did
you mean, the way it didn't, because they changed it the last minute. you're literally butthurt about something that didn't even happen.

Attached: TADnShe - Imgur.gif (640x360, 2.15M)

And that only happened because of the backlash to the Adam thing. It still makes them look really stupid or greedy for woke points when they swear up and down they knew how bad buried gays were and how Adam was other people's fault but tried to do a traditional version the whole time.

they fucked up, got a backlash, learned from it, and fixed what was in their power to fix. i don't think we can reasonably ask for more.

gays don't matter

The mech designs were cool when they bothered to show up. Too bad they didn't.

Most straight guys enjoy porn with fat dicks out. Big dicks are the most common straight fetish, even bigger than tits, ass, and feet. With modern sites like Pornhub doing analytics, it's really easy to find stuff like this. Guys are literally aroused by the sight of a big dick, as long as it's in close proximity to a female (hence futa, incidentally).

Really wouldn't be surprised if it's similar for lesbians.

Voltron was never good. The original was trash,Go-Lion was trash and this is trash. Don't pretend otherwise. Voltron was never good. It had a cool robot design and that's it.

Guys like big cocks so they can self insert, does that mean lesbians like huge clits and tits?

the most prominent people in history were gay or bi
straight people are just common

>gay chauvinism

It's not about self-insertion. Guys are visual. It's literally just a set of heuristics the brain goes through about the image it's viewing.

>1. is there a girl in the picture?
>2. is there a dick in the picture?
>if only 1, +3 sexiness points
>if 1 and 2, +5 sexiness points
>if only 2, -2 sexiness points
This is why futa and trap porn have so much traction. It's literally just the brain getting tricked and going "I see a dick and a female, so it's all good", even though they're attached to each other.

but i mean yeah i assume lesbians like big tits

VLD started okay. It went on too long and failed to escalate properly. You either have to introduce a series of bigger and bigger threats (Zarkkon -> Lotor -> Extragalactic empire Zarkkon was fighting with -> Evil alteans from another dimension) or just keep the same big threat the entire time (Zarkkon) so you can develop him and have him be a legitimate threat.

The way it turned out, it was the worst of both worlds. There was a progression of villains but they were basically all people we already knew, and we were just supposed to believe they magically got stronger than when we were stomping Zarkkon, and of course we kept killing off villains so they could never be developed as much as they should have been.

First two thirds were pretty good. Season 7 was when it started losing steam and 8 is when it had nothing left.
Seriously the destruction of all realities ever felt like less of a big deal than the destruction of planet Earth, which also felt like less of a big deal than the destruction of Team Voltron's home castle.

I liked the idea of them setting up Honerva as the real final boss and most powerful character, the real power behind the throne who was just biding her time to strike. Except she ended up being a really boring villain and spent the whole time throwing a cosmic temper tantrum instead.

>we kept killing off villains so they could never be developed as much as they should have been.

This was one of my biggest problems. We still never got any backstory or anything on Sendak, Throk was gone in like two episodes, shit like that. Set up without payoff is VLD's biggest problem, in my opinion.

That's hilarious, I'm glad everyone turned on this shitty show.

I can't even remember what happened to Throk other than he was sent to some distant planet.

I wanted to find out more about Haxus.

Why? He was never set up to be anything more than a two-bit goon and died like one. Nothing about him was handled poorly enough for people to feel let down by outside of people who husbando him.

It's funny because the end of seasons 2, 6, and 7 were all perfectly fine places for the show to end on.

This. It’s the model that is wildly successful for nips. Give em some bait and they’ll work themselves into a delusion that you didn’t actually promise or imply. Plus they won’t tank your ratings when you don’t give em gay boys.

Literally all you need to get a female fan base is
1. A twink
2. Someone who they like imagining fucking the twink

This is what happens when you bait fujoshits

Plus Japan had centuries where gay relationships were the norm so even if they're seen as lower they're not totally taboo either. You can fill a Japanese show with bait knowing straighties won't all be scared off and some of them might tune in for it if they're the opposite sex. Christfagging in the West made the gays seem too scary for most showrunners to take seriously even if shows as early as the 90s were cracking jokes about yaoi fangirls and hot lesbians.

It stopped making sense. The actual way they defeat Honerva as well as her actual evil plan literally are nonsensical. You can't explain what is going on other than saying good or bad things are happening. There is no internal logical consistency. Its just a hot mess. And then, it ends with this weird epilogue that resolves nothing and doesn't make sense for any of the characters. Also Shiro just marries so rando and its played almost for shock value. Like that last scene in ParaNorman.

Dunno if I have many new Sendak's since fan art has slowed down, but okay.

This gay problem wouldn't have been a problem if they never catered to the gays and fujos in the first place. I guarantee Voltron would still be as popular if they made all the characters straight. Gays and Fujos would still watch it because they have their own head canon. Look at Lance and Keith, those characters aren't gay but they're paired up as the most popular ship in the show, despite having canon gays. Hell, Supernatural and Cap and Bucky proves this trend as well.

Fuck these writers. They deserve every moment of criticism. I told you these writers were virtue signaling hacks no different from Bryke. They say they care about diversity and gay representation, but the moment they include it in, it's a half-measure, half-effort attempt that shows their true colors that, at best, they don't care, at worst they're lying to you and actually oppose the values they claim to espouse.

I hope Yea Forums and other cartoon fans learn a lesson from this. That not all "inclusive" writers means their product will actually have quality representation. And that shows that aren't very diverse or LGBTA+ means it is poor quality or that the writers are secretly bigoted. Hell, most of my fav shows are old as hell with values typical of their era. But it's still better than many modern cartoons.

Nah, this is what happens when you stop baiting and actually try to appease the fujos. This is why Japan's fujobaits are so successful, they never stop baiting and just give enough for the fujos that they keep coming back for more bait.

It's an oft repeated rumor, but it's statistically lower than even bisexual females. The only group that goes to it less are heterosexual males. All groups however have a substantially higher range than you'd expect. Bisexual males surprisingly are evenly split on the subject, going to it less than bisexual females. Bisexual males are more likely to enjoy bara yaoi, which while prominent is less common, which may explain the difference.

So all the lesbians who claim to love yaoi are just bisexuals then?

No, they certainly exist, but they are in lower number than bisexual females, just higher than heterosexual males. On average females tend to view more yaoi material than men, be they straight, bi, or lesbian. Straight women view the most yaoi content, while lesbian women view the least, comparatively. I'll need to look up the actual percentages again, but I believe it's something like 3/4 straight women who view it, a bit below 3/4 bisexual women, and 1/3 lesbian women. In contrast bisexual men tend to be between 2/3 and 1/2, while heterosexual men tend to be down around 1/10.

Who were the lesbians?

To be fair, Shiro was an accident that fucked up the entire show and it's plans.

IIRC they never intended Shiro to be a major character. Just like the OG TV show, Shiro was supposed to die (around S2) in order to allow them to follow GoLion and put Allura into the mix as a lion pilot.

Problem is, they fucked up by making Shiro so fucking likeable and so heavily focused upon, as far as THE main character. So killing him off would risk losing a huge part of the show's audience who considered Shiro THE main character. So they were basically stuck with him and ended up trying their damnest to sideline him (since killing him off was off the table) without killing the show.

big tits are painful and cause back problems. I want the smallest tits possible my dude.
a big clit though, that sounds great.

Can you be more specific about the context of this scenario?

They didn't keep him alive because he was popular, they kept him alive because execs thought little boys only buy the main lion pilot toy which was Shiro at the time. In the end the toys didn't sell for shit anyway so it didn't even matter.

The decision to kill and unkill Shiro was decided on before the show released, although it's possible some kind of preliminary focus testing was involved.

There's some speculation about how one reason for the poor quality of the merch was directly tied to LM and JDS's refusal to put more than the bare minimum of information in the show bible or update it as the show went along in order to prevent suits from turning down all their story decisions after they nixed their decision to kill Shiro, which in turn made it hard for the toy companies to coordinate as they had little to work with so all you had left was the crappy ones.

If that's really the case then we can blame things like the lack of lion slippers or Atlas toys on Lauren and Joaquim's huge ego.

Lm and Jds not updating the bible is no excuse for how those toys looked. They looked like the kind of toys you would get from the dollar store.

Okay. But now you’re a nazi homophobe.

>we will never get an art book

The true tragedy of this.

You could probably get that 15% by being very generous as to what makes a person “bi.”

Lesbian porn tends to have medium/small sized tits. I'm guessing it's because women actually know what big tits feel like (extremely uncomfortable) and have no reason to find it attractive.

2 and 6 were intended to be the finales of seasons 1 and 2. I'm sure 7 and 8 were one season too, but it has two arcs instead.

Because making toys requires quite a lot of planning, and that's hard to do with a loose and barebones bible. The only ones willing to work with them at the end of the day were the lower-end faster cheaper companies as they were unable to secure deals with the ones who make higher quality toys, not helped by LM/JDS fighting with them over things as minor as the elemental icons. And even then those crappy toys which were clearly as rushed to market as they could be took a whole year to come out, while the Funkos took a whole two, which is unusually late. They also had two licensing companies to reckon with which makes it twice as difficult because you need to get both of them to sign off, but while Dreamworks is more flexible with merch, WEP is very old-fashioned in what types of merch they're willing to sign off on.
Feels bad man.

That's pretty much how it plays out just with Honerva and Allura as the names. Honerva is sad because her husband and son are gone in her reality so she looks for them in another one, is rejected by them, then resolves to do that first sentence almost word-for-word. Allura tells her friends she has to die to repair the damage Honerva did to the multiverse without any explanation then tells Honerva she did nothing wrong, while Honerva gets to walk off into the void as an omnipotent god-being with the soul of her husband and son for all eternity, which is exactly what she was looking for.
