Thank you guys for this positive blog!

Of course! I’m sad that the Voltron fandom has become way less active since we last posted, but always feel free to @ us and use the tag #thankyouteamvoltron to continue spreading positivity! <3 Thank you for the ask!

Thank you for the wonderful 8 seasons, the jaw dropping fights, and heart warming moments. #thankyouteamvoltron

[projectthankyouteamvoltron]

I will be honest, there were things about season 8 that I’m disappointed with. I won’t name those things, because I have long been exhausted with the negativity in this fandom and I don’t want to spread more. But yeah, there’s some heartbreak and I really wish some things had been different.

But that doesn’t mean I don’t still love this show, its characters; it doesn’t mean I don’t respect and admire the cast and crew, who gave so much of their love and passion to giving us what was overall a wonderful story with amazing characters. This show captured my heart and imagination and I wouldn’t change my experience with it for the world.

Thank you, Voltron crew, for giving me something so special.

I can’t be alone, right?

Voltron: Legendary Defender is amazing, and I am so grateful to have experienced the show. I’m honestly gonna be saddened by its end, but I’ll cherish everything that went into its making and what it stands for. All stories do, right?

I know that the cast of characters are fictional, that they do not exist in the tangible world. But that does not mean that I cannot love them as if they were. All of the characters, even the villains and underappreciated ones, are precious to me in a way that I can’t rightly put into words.

I know the creators of Voltron: Legendary Defender don’t know me personally, but I want to say thank you. Thank you for making my down-days happier, and giving me something to enjoy even when I am happy. I love Voltron, and I’ll never be able to fully thank you for it.

Voltron is over…

I’m so happy yet so sad. Every thing was so great and I loved this show so much. I’m going to miss it. I’m going to miss all of this so much. Thank you, so much for this show. Thank you, for making this year for me, better. And lastly, thank you, to the community that has supported the team and everyone. I hope that this part of the fandom will continue on. Even if we have hit some rough patches with this series, this has truly been a good experience. I love this show, I LOVE this show. Thank you.

NO MATTER WHAT PEOPLE SAY, S8 WAS PER-FECT TO ME. ♥

THANK YOU TEAM VOLTRON  !

[projectthankyouteamvoltron]

Not a question, just wanted to thank you guys for helping create a positive corner in this fandom ❤ I had to stop watching in s5 (while the show was at s7) because the negativity in this fandom was messing with my head, but now I feel safe to watch it again!

Aw! This is so sweet!

I’m so glad we were able to have such a positive influence! Our whole goal is to make everyone feel comfortable and safe in this community, no matter what. ♥

December 14th: Thank You Team Voltron!

Something that needs to be said about Voltron.

Season 8 premieres in a few hours as of writing this post. Ever since I joined this community, there has been so much hate against each other. I know not everyone gets involved, but everything feels so divided.

Shipping is a wonderful thing. It’s a great fandom activity. But, it’s something that doesn’t necessarily have to become canon to enjoy. Sure, it’s amazing if something that you ship does become canon (ex. Bubbline, or Korrasami)! But we all need to remember that its a fan activity, and the writers have already planned out the story and character arcs. Nothing will change that.

With Season 8, some people may be disappointed. Some people may be happy with the end. But, there are some important things to be aware of.

Remember that the show’s creators, voice actors, and animators are all real people, with real emotions. 

Remember that whatever happens, no ship is dead. Ships are fan-made, and as long as fans continue to create content for said ship, they will continue to exist.

Remember the show itself isn’t about shipping.

Remember that harassment is never okay, no matter how angry or disappointed you may be.

It’s been an honor flying with you all. I’ll see you on the other side of Season 8.
