The non-existent fourth wall is staggering.
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.
Mitski is exhausted by people reducing her to “sad girl music” and the white fans in the comments are like, “Mitski said no more depression,” which misses the point quite comically.
Jem: a dear friend of mine-
Me: hoe don't do it
Jem: my parabatai-
Me: STOP
Jem: William
Me: *in tears*
“Swift as a deer. Quiet as a shadow. Quick as a snake. Calm as still water. Strong as a bear. Fierce as a wolverine. The man who fears losing has already lost. Fear cuts deeper than swords.”
In a world both frightening and unlucky, there are a few comforts. One of them is making new friends. Friends can make you feel the world is smaller and safer than it really is, because you know people who have similar experiences. When you meet people like that, you may find your world feels a little more complete. Like the missing piece of a puzzle, or two halves of a broken spyglass. Click.
What we thought:
What he really meant:
I dont really care if you use the term bisexual or pansexual, but what i DO care about is that you understand that bisexuality at NO stage in history was EVER trans-exclusionary. Bisexuality has always included trans folks, and non-binary folks, and the entire spectrum of gender between male and female, as well as Definitively Gender and agender. It has ALWAYS meant "attraction to more than one gender." It has NEVER meant "attraction to cis men and women only."
So, pan, bi, use whichever label you will. But do NOT buy into the recent-years innacurate concept that bisexuality is attraction to cis men and women only, because thats literally never been the case.
