The Lion Voltron Episodes
Season Two
Season two is marked by several dramatic changes. First and most notable is that a lot of the stylization of the characters becomes completely inconsistent as these episodes are pieced together from old and newly contracted (and often times cheap a$$) footage.
Incorrect coloring and even all out missing coloring of the line drawings is also prevalent.
Continuity errors ABOUND, in one frame characters are wearing one thing, in the next they are in totally different outfits just to jump back again.
Weak plot cop out saves by the ghost of Alfor and the stupid space mice.
Sven, poor Sven. Okay here’s the deal. Sven was supposed to die early in the last season when Hagar attacked him but as American audiences can’t handle such realities as people can die in war *rolles eyes*, they edited Sven’s funeral out of the American release. The guy you see running around with Romelle after that point is not really Sven but Sven’s brother, that’s why he looks so different. So in this season they use old footage of old Sven and mix it with new footage and the old footage of Sven’s brother and we are supposed to just pretend it’s all the same guy. *turn suspension of disbelief goggles up to 11*
On the positive side of things, things do heat up between our favorite couples. No longer are things between the lines assumptions. ;)
