Just a boy from Cuba.
“they killed off our lgbt rep!”
adam isn’t the rep, shiro is
they briefly introduced adam so they could properly discuss him in season 8 when they have the time (it’s a common thing to see in tv shows and literature)
shiro didn’t stop being gay because he lost adam
adam’s death wasn’t pointles
“season 7 was disappointing”
hunk got the arc we’ve been waiting for
the galra were defeated
they finally returned to earth
lance got to see his familly!!! aaaa!!!
space??? lesbians??? hello??? sign me the fuck up???
matt with a ponytail (+ an alien girlfriend fuck yeah)
keith with a ponytail (+ a pacifier and the purest fucking puppy eyes)
high quality klance interactions (lance is Whipped)
keith sliced sendak like a hot knife to soft butter
sniper!!! fucking!!! lance!!! has returned!!! (and keith totally knows he’s the team sharpshooter fuck me up)
lotor on the game show episode (is no one gonna talk about the dance he does)
veronica, griffin, kinkade, and the others all radiate bde and i love them all with my entire heart and soul

iverson and keith forgiving each other and that was just a great scene oml
keith: “yes, sir!” and he does the hand thing
coran in general
aLLURA TAKING OFF HER CROWN TO SAVE SHIRO DOES NO ONE WANNA TALK ABOUT MY MOTHER OMG THAT SCENE HAS MY ASS
axca is CUTE i don’t ship her with keith but dAMN I LOVE HER
tHE ATLAS AND SHIRO’S MOMENT WHEN HE MAKES IT VOLTRON x10 WHAT THE FUCK THAT WAS SO COOL
the aNIMATION IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT HOW GOOD IT WAS
everything about that season is just… mWAH
“they queerbaited us, they’re homophobic, it was an advertising scheme”
they know what they’re doing, these writers are talented as hell
they know how important rep is to us, and it’s obviously important to them too
season 7 was about saving the earth and winning the war against the galra, they didn’t have time to talk about past relationships
introducing adam wouldn’t seem that important to someone who doesn’t keep up with the social media, but it’s paving the way for season 8
allurance and axca x keith are so forced and sudden that i’m almost certain the forced nature of it is intentional, they’re setting something up for season 8
bex is lgbt, the crew is full of allies, they wouldn’t let queerbaiting happen
season 7 happened so we could have some peace and time for personal subjects to be brought up in season 8 (i.e. romance, lance’s bi arc, shiro mourning adam, etc)
season 8 is still going to happen, don’t give up hope yet, the story isn’t finished
they knew people would leave/want to leave the fandom after season 7, but that just goes to show that they have something that would make us really happy in season 8 because they’re smart and know what the fans want
adam’s death was so much of a small deal that i know they weren’t finished talking about adam, they’ll address him in season 8
don’t give up. there’s still hope, and the story isn’t over yet. season 8 is going to address all of our concerns, answer all of our questions, and snatch all of our weaves.
Even though season 8 could have been SOOOOOOO much better I wouldn't say I hated it, so just to lift my spirits a little solely I'm listing here the things I did like, or even love:
The freakin soundtrack
The animation was the best to date
They added background to the villains which i always appreciate
EZOR AND ZETHRID LIKE I HONESTLY THOUGHT THEY WERE DEAD AND FORGOTTEN
The gags ond 80s voltron
PIDGE AND HUNK BEING THE ABSOLUTE BEST
Pidge and Colleen's dinamic had me dead
The way they filled an episode from the camera's perspective and had it still advancing plot was actually pretty smart and well done
I've always liked Allura's bravery and assertiveness while being under so much pression but this season SHE'S JUST (OR WAS I GUESS?) A FREAKIN QUEEN
Keith literally stating that his lone wolf days are gone AT LAST
Shiro being fucking happy at the end?? I mean I despise the little screen time or development he got but guys if someone deserved to end up finding love one way or another and as far away from the spotlight as possible, that was shiro, he's been through enough
The mind fucks with the realities and being inside the THOUGHTS of other people and being able to calculate what's EXACTLY going to happen, that's some rick and morty stuff right there
The old and new paladins reunion *heart eyes*
Allura saying her goodbyes to everyone (except Lance's one ironically), they were so beautiful and heartfelt I think I died and resurrected
And that's pretty much all that I can think of right now probably some quotes also.
Wow that's a short list.
