Where technology is concerned, there's no one better.

Pidge as well, though she tends to lean more toward Action Survivor, but when given no other choice she manages to hold her own in a one-on-one.

Not only is she capable and fearless while piloting the Castle of Lions, using it for fire support, she's also surprisingly strong and badass physically, as we see in 'Collection and Extraction'. In 3x07, it seems the Lions were created with 'battle damage', because the animation team didn't bother to alter the 3D models for their debut scene. However, the CG sequences run at 24 fps while the animated sequences run at 15 fps, so a lot of the action sticks out pretty jarringly.

2D Visuals, 3D Effects: Though Voltron, the Lions, and most Robeasts are definitely CG, the improved techniques make them blend far better with the rest of the art than in almost any other show to date.

But first, they'll have to rebuild Voltron, figure out how to pilot their individual Lions, learn to work as a team, build alliances with colorful alien races, and maybe grow up along the way. Allura names the five Paladins of the legendary warrior Voltron in hopes that they can defeat the nefarious Galra Empire, who have been conquering the various galaxies for millennia, and restore peace to the universe. They are transported to the mysterious Castle of Lions, where the alien Princess Allura ( Kimberly Brooks) of Altea has been in cryosleep for 10,000 years. Shiro and four other pilots - cadets Lance ( Jeremy Shada), Pidge ( Bex Taylor-Klaus), and Hunk ( Tyler Labine), as well as dropout Keith ( Steven Yeun), chance upon a giant robotic Blue Lion in the desert. The show is produced by Lauren Montgomery and Joaquim Dos Santos, best known for their work on Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra and animated by Studio Mir (also known for its work on Korra).įar into the future, humanity's fledgling space travels are run by the Galaxy Garrison, which is shaken when one of its most talented members, Shiro ( Josh Keaton), lands back on earth after going missing on a mission a year prior.

It is also the first Voltron series to be produced after the franchise was bought by DreamWorks Animation, among other titles.

Unlike that show, however, Legendary Defender reboots the concept and gives it a nice clean slate to tell the tale anew. Voltron: Legendary Defender is the newest Voltron series since Voltron Force was cut short in 2012.
