I haven't seen the newer series, but I always loved Lotor in the original. He was always #1 hottest for me! Great work, as always. Smile

OK, so I actually recommend it. Like... strongly do so. It's a homage to the original, so don't expect the same plot. The premise is the same, but a lot of things are changed. Lotor has changed a lot, IMHO for the better. I use to think he was hot, but his relationship with Allura was super creepy. They expanded the characters out a lot, made the plot way more intriguing, and added a heap of original lore to it. Now, I don't know how Voltron compares to Golion, as I only saw the American version, but in comparison to what I saw which was a bastardized version of Golion, that's my thoughts. Original Voltron still has it's merits, but this remake is really good. I'd highly recommend giving it a go Smile Lotor takes a few seasons to pop up though if you're watching it for him. I really love the changes that they've made and don't want to give any of it away <3

    I never liked Golion, but I enjoyed Voltron for what it was. I don't know if I'd watch the newer one, but I feel sure I'd at least recommend it to a friend of mine who always loved everything Voltron AND Golion! Big Smile Especially with your glowing recommendation! It is wonderful that they seem to have taken a respectful tone and integral approach to the original material. It's so rare to see that happen!

      It's a VERY different story to the original. I'd suggest giving it a go. The characters are more diverse and have their own arcs. Don't expect the characters to be the same as before, but they base it off the original. It's a really good tribute I think. It has great heart and it's fun, with tones of danger and lore Smile
