Netflix Retrospective - Voltron: Legendary Defender Season 6 Episodes 5-7

Well, some major revelations happened in the last episodes, we have 3 more episodes of the season, let’s see how they capitalise on this.

Season 6 of Voltron came a few months after season 5. I don’t know why they stopped splitting the seasons at this point, I guess the animation was nearing completion and there wasn’t much point stalling it. It’s also the last season where I don’t have to address controversy. I guess I’ll get to it when I get to it. But onto season 6. We’ll cover the first 4 episodes in this one, because ep 3 is kinda filler and I want to leave this retrospective on a more exciting note.

OK, we’ve got to season 5 and since I wrote the last retrospective, Voltron has become somewhat a subject of controversy for certain narrative decisions in its final 2 seasons. I will cover the particularly controversial elements in due course, my opinion is that they’re well-intentioned but badly thought through, particularly with the announcement in the marketing for season 7, something I’ll get to when I eventually cover season 7.

For now, though, we’re only on season 5 and there’s only 6 episodes to cover as once again, the season was split in half so they could put more releases out, let’s see how this half holds up.

We’re looking at Voltron again, as we wind down season 4, but are they winding up to a good finale?

We’re back, so let’s finish off season 3 of Voltron

Netflix wanted to get the show out faster, and so began splitting the planned seasons into smaller mini-seasons, the next 4 seasons are either 6 or 7 episodes long, and as such seasons 3 and 5 don’t feel entirely complete. That said, it does mean I can do season 3 in 2 retrospectives before we hit the Christmas hiatus so… Here’s season 3 of Voltron

Editorial - My thoughts on Voltron: Legendary Defender Season 3

Just a heads up, this is probably the last of these editorials I’ll be doing for Voltron, I’m going to be doing full on retrospectives on a lot of Netflix stuff come the New Year, and of course Voltron is on my list. I may do a s4 but I don’t have it locked in and it may be a while since I’m basically locked in until April at this point. Yes, I do a lot in advance. But since I’m not going to be doing Voltron until the summer anyway, here are my thoughts.

Because of reasons Netflix decided to split the 13 episodes that would've been season 3 into 2 smaller seasons, one of which premiered in August which I’m covering now, and one which will be coming out the day after this review.
