I love Voltron as much as the next guy (probably much, much more), but I've noticed that Voltron sucks in some very important ways.
1) His Hands are LIONS
Voltron is awesome, but let's be honest: his hands are LIONS.
Can you imagine how hard life would be if your hands were lion jaws? How would you even hold a blazing sword! Lion Jaws have no opposable thumbs!
If my hands were small lion jaws, I couldn't even type this post. I couldn't even use an iPhone, and you only need two fingers to use one of those.
FAIL.
2) One Robeast at a Time?
The enemy only sends one giant robotic Robeast at a time. Voltron gets beat down badly... then somehow rallies, and barely defeats the Robeast.
What if (and this is crazy talk), but what if the enemy sent TWO robeasts at the same time.
3) They spend half the episode transforming into Voltron
After two episodes, I already had the transformation sequence memorized:
“Ready to form Voltron! Activate interlock! Dynatherms connected! Infracells, up! Megathrusters are go! GO VOLTRON FORCE! Form feet and legs. Form arms and body. And I’ll form, the head!”
4) Princess Allura is an idiot
Granted I've only watched a few episodes, but she is always messing up. She is the Smurfette of the Voltron Force.
Granted... as with Smurfette, I am strangely attracted to her.
5) Just kidding, Voltron is AWESOME!
I was just testing you. Voltron doesn't suck... it is AWESOME.
I always thought of the lower jaws as thumbs, which is how the sword could be held. The iPhone would still be a challenge though.
My dad loves Voltron :)
@KasumiCelesta@xanga - "My dad loves Voltron." Ha! That's the best insult I've ever heard.
this reminds me of power rangers. which i actually know. not sure what voltron is. Mighty Morphin FTW
I think the first Anime I was attracted to!
It was alright...you have to think it lead the way for the Mighty Morphing Power Rangers, so hahahah.
Never seen 'im.
thank god you're joking! cuz if that's all you got, that's pretty weak.
The Voltron Sprite commercials with all of those rappers in it a couple years back was FAR more entertaining than the actual Voltron show. Give me Gatchaman or Evangelion anyday!
