(1) I was just reading all your theories and analysis and I’m so impressed and grateful for all the time and thought you put in this... Seriously amazing! They’re all very interesting but comparative analysis of other voltrons interested me the most since I only saw couple of episodes of 80s Voltron. In the middle of reading about V3D Lance’s PTSD when you described his nightmare about skeletons of dead family where he also becomes one I immediately thought about that scene from s3 vld-
(2) where the team finds themselves on the Altean ship in the other reality and Lance puts off the helmet of the person who, as we learns later, was a captain on this ship. All altean armors have similar design yet this one’s shoulder pads and helmet were blue, strikingly similar to Lance’s. So when he put the helmet off and revealed it was a skeleton it was like facing his own death. Do you think it might be conscious reference to V3D?
oh wow thank you!! :D i do have a lot of fun writing the comparative analyses, so i’m glad that other people enjoy them.
huh, i’d never thought that was a reference, but it might be? it does explore the same concept, albeit with different approaches. if it is a conscious reference, i doubt we’ll ever get confirmation; they seem to pretend to ignore other installments of the franchise in interviews, even when using their plot points.
