As always, weâre kinda late, but thanks to @ FreeVoltronS8 on Twitter we were able to send an open letter to WEP.
Before writing it down, we didnât even recognise how much, in addition to all widely stated problems with S8, we hated that woman of science was turned 180 and made into an âobsessed motherâ.

Weâre back! No reason was given to us as to why the blog was terminated, this was Tumblrâs message:
âThank you for bringing this problem to our attention. We're sorry that it occurred, and we'll do our best to make sure that it doesn't happen again.â
Weâre counting on everyone to continue to spread this post. Weâll update it through the weekend with more interesting facts.
We got some asks pointing to other posts talking about this seasonâs inconsistencies. The reason why we didnât add more to this post is because weâre not looking for theories, as amazing as they are.
Please donât feel discouraged and continue to send us your theories. We wonât be replying to asks, but weâll investigate and if we find something new, weâll add it to the post. Regardless of characters or ships, weâre only looking for solid visual aspects that something is off about this season.

Translation:
âAfter talking with a fan who honestly liked the show to the end, I thought about whether VLD was really that terrible enough to be spat on, with cool head.
Iâm an animator. Not every animator likes what theyâre working on. Some donât even recognize what they worked on. If an animation is like a house, then animator is the one who does bricklaying. You can be proud of having made this house, but this house belongs to the designer.
Still, as a brick layer who built a house called Voltron, I am so proud and thankful of the series. Maybe if I hadnât known anyone who cried and laughed along with the series, I wouldnât be, but Iâve met people who thanked me personally, for laying the bricks. So I love this âhouseâ, even though it isnât mine.
So, if you ask me, if this houseâs finishing touch is feeble, weird, and âthe worst thing that ever happenedâ, especially compared to the magnificent, beautiful start, then yes. I agree completely.
But that âfinishing touchâ is not a little thing. To me, every single brick of the last season is very upsetting. Everything else is good. No, everything else is wonderfully compatible and done very well.
But one small brick has such a different color with everything else, itâs disrupting the whole thing. Itâs pulling out every little errors, even the ones I hadnât noticed before, out in the open. Once again, this is only my opinion.
TBH, if I start rewatching the series from s1 and pick out little bits I donât like, of course there will be. Itâs only that they were so well made, even the errors looked compatible. Actually, I enjoyed watching season 8 to the end. Everyone tried their best and I sent lots of loves and thankyous to the creators. I want to make something like that. I wanted to make something like this, not only as a brick layer but as a designer too. I love this series so much.
The last brick shocked me so much, but still, at that point, I was like âthatâs disappointing... but without it, itâs ok. They shouldâve left it with open ending.â
Then I started talking with other fans, the people who loved and adored Voltron, the one who had high expectation of it. And I started agreeing with the. Yes. They are right. And I still think they are right. Passionate fans didnât anything that isnât true.
But on the other hand, is it okay to spit so much like this on the designer who didnât know this last piece was going to fit so wrongly with the whole series? Maybe. You do you.â

The video was originally deleted, but hereâs a record
Quote from the video
âWe knew where we wanted to head kind of early on, but then as things happened, and as shows progressed we started to realize that our visions were not the only visions going into this show. And where we thought we would end up was not always exactly how we were going to end up.
End of Voltron without the epilogue cards
