I think the most heartbreaking part of this video is that it so accurately represents how good and impactful this show could have been if the creators hadn't screwed it up in the last few seasons.
I honestly thought all the seasons were fantastic, season six and seven were for sure my favorites. But I agree with they could’ve ended season eight much better.
Nah it wasn't their faults, they were required changes in last moments when everything was already set up For example they were planning on killing off Shiro and had everything ready, the story, the plot, the storyboards, but then they got a new requirement to keep him alive, a few changes s like these were made too late so they had to come up with ways to make their jobs easier because it would take too long to rewrite everything plus make storyboards and then reanimate everything again They had no choice in the matter
I watched that scene with my young cousin (she’s around 7-8) and I cried but she didn’t understand, bc she was young, that Keith basically tried to kill himself-
Fujiboo YES. I felt so much anxiety and angst and most of all, sadness. This vid just pulled so many emotions from me and chills got me every second. It’s ridiculously amazing and I can’t get about of it 😭 💕
Same here it’s just so sad but happy then depressed by watching them it makes you wanna start crying and it’s as if you miss them but there is one part of your heart going like there has to be more videos of Voltron. It’s just all emotions mixed up as one for short.I miss the klance and all of the. 😭😢😞
This is better than the actual show It's so full of emotion, it carries the message of what Voltron was meant to be If the show carried this energy with it it could have been amazing
@@florencewoah plot wise it was good until the last few seasons. they were so terrible and catras redemption arc and the whole catradora thing was so toxic and abusive. the she ra writers really did my girl adora wrong 🥲
the hard-hitting quotes were perfect in here.. i love this video way too much "Goodbye, Allura." "For Narti." and of course, saM HOLT "Something tells me that you're gonna have your own crew someday, and you're going to fly with them to worlds so far away we can't even imagine. I bet my bottom dollar you're going to be a part of something that makes the whole universe sit up, and take notice."
I STARTED TEARING UP OMG ESPECIALLY AT THE " Goodbye Allura" and at Sam's prediction of Pidge in the future omg, it puts it all into perspective. I;m crying
It's almost been a year since VLD ended. This show will always have a special little place in my heart, despite the injustices it received at its ending. These characters were beautiful, and i grew with this show as i watched it. The idea was so basic, but VLD was something completely unique; and I'll always love it for that. This edit is absolutely beautiful, amazing, and has helped me remember just how much this show has helped me, and how much it means to me. It's been an honour flying with you all.
I was so hurt and broken when I finished the last episode literally balled and haven’t forgotten about it since. I’m so happy I was able to experience watching the show even if it broke me to my core.
Every few months I come back to this edit because it just perfectly captures how amazing this show truly was. I feel like if DreamWorks didn't fuck up what the production team had already created for the end, it could have been so impactful. Wish I could experience this show for the first time again.
Wow. I don't even know what to say right now. This is hands down the best Voltron video I've ever seen. I don't think any of others even come close to how epic this one is and how well it captures the show as a whole. Everything was in there: their found family, their struggles, their destiny as Voltron, and their fight against Zarkon. This video is so layered and has such an amazing build up. I got chills during the second chorus! Thank you so much for making this beautiful video!
I'll forever remember the moment where Pidge comes upon the graveyard and thinks Matt died. It was really heart wrenching to watch even after you know he's alive.
i remember watching that for the first time after the season came out, and it. it hurt so so much. pidge's SCREAM - bex is such a talented voice actress, cause damn, i _felt_ it. it's such a beautiful and heartbreaking moment in television and it really made me think: this is grief.
I saw this and ended up binge watching all of Voltron in about three days. You monster. This was beautiful. It is nothing short of a masterpiece. I love how you incorporated the voice overs and created a very powerful story. Also, I can't believe that before watching the show, I thought that Lance with a jellyfish over his head was a super emotional moment. Oh how wrong I was.
FSDJFLASDFJSDKL oh my god I was actually wondering if anybody would think anything of the jellyfish shot so this actually made my day (and omg thank you sm!! welcome to voltron hell)
I honestly don't know if anyone feels the same, but this video makes me want to experience Voltron again. I can't bring myself to watch it all over because I remember all the experiences I had when each season was still coming out, the fan art, the fanfics, the tumblr theories - everything. I'd honestly give anything to watch Voltron for the first time again, it's such a magical show to me and even the later seasons meant a lot even if they weren't perfect because I feel like we all got to experience it together :)
Same. I just can't watch it anymore because of just all those feels it has subjected me to. It has legit impacted how I get into new shows. I think I'm going to get "burned" like I did in Voltron. But I wouldn't go back for a second.
fr dude. the shipping fandom was always weird and toxic (happened to myself a couple times too, no matter how ashamed I am to say it 😭) and I tried to rewatch it but this show had such a chokehold on me. ESPECIALLY klance. too fucking much. I was insanely obsessed and for some reason I still am and I can't tell you why because I don't know. the emotions this show gives me are so bittersweet and it's so sad.
i had the same feelings about rewatching just bc i knew it would be so hard emotionally. i watched the show when i was 13-14. i was so so depressed, i had no purpose and everyday was a fight. in less than two months i turn 21. in three months i’ll be celebrating four years with my partner, and two years living in our own apartment. a few weeks ago i decided to rewatch the first episode just for kicks and my partner was in the room and they really liked it. we started watching it together and. i cant even put the feeling into words. it’s weird to rewatch it, but it’s mostly been really nice. i’ve kind of gone through a phase recently where i’ve gotten back into all my old fandoms but instead of using them as a shield from the world i just use them as a source of happiness. it’s kind of my way of saying goodbye to my teenage years?? i think by the time i finish the series again i’ll be thankful i did it. plus i forgot just how fucking GOOD this show is, forgetting all the bullshit between fans and creators, just enjoying everything it has to offer has been the best part. at the end of the day it’s a story i’ll always keep close to my heart, it’s comforting and it’s just good. also for me personally it’s been cool to notice how i react to it now versus how i did back then, i learn a lot through doing stuff like that. sorry this is so long, but this comment section feels very comforting, thanks for reading if you did
My best friend introduced me to Voltron back when season 1 aired, we were obsessed with it, until my best friend grew out of the show around season 2 and didn't watch it anymore, I spent years watching this show, crying, cheering, laughing, getting shocked, and at the Season 8 Finale, I cried, hard. I grew up with this show, I remember me having the best birthday ever because Season 5 came out on my Birthday, I spent the whole day watching Voltron, my entire life was this show. I miss it so much. I know everyone says the show was trash after season 3, I don't agree, some of my fav seasons are after season 3, but I do love Season 2 so much, ah screw it, I love every episode, I quote the lines in Voltron daily. I watch the Space Mall episode before I go to bed everynight. It's my favourite episode of the whole show. And, I don't really ship anyone, I love all the relationships in this show, I think they're all adorable, I've re-watched Voltron at Least 4 times during quarantine, and it makes me so happy to see people here in 2020 who still love this show...it's been an honour flying with ya'll
This show was what made me get close to my friends, every time a trailer for a new season would drop I would text it to our group chat, we got more people to watch it. it started with just me and one friend who happened to watch it and we started making references with made the other people start watching it, we got six other people to start watching it, we would get super hyped for a new season and some of us would stay up all night together to watch it. we talked theories to ships (respectfully tho most shipped klance but there was one sheith shipper and a plance shipper too) and we all got assigned a character (i was keith) and we roleplayed, the first sleepover i was even invited too was partly a voltron sleepover. and at the last season we all got together i think 5 (one couldn't make it) and we watched the entire last season together, we stayed up until 5am watching it since we had school and had to wait for people to arrive but, we watched it all and were screaming and yelling the entire time, the adult of the house did not get any sleep that night. A few of us cried at the end and we all hated the end. but we went through it together and it was one of the main reasons we all even became friends. But even though the disappointment I cant hate this show, Its been an honor flying with you.
Voltron: Defenders of the Universe is a show that my dad watched when he was a kid. When I went on Netflix one day, it was on the home screen while my dad was in my room. That's how I got into Voltron: Legendary Defender. I wish I had watched it when it came out, but, I never knew about it, so here I am watching it in late 2023 and early-to-mid 2024....
It's been a good long while since this show ended.. it might've been a complete trainwreck in the end, but honestly? I can't bring myself to hate this show. It was my escape, and it still holds a special place in my tiny heart. Even though the end was heartbreaking.. and the community around it was questionable, it was still one of my favorite shows. I would watch it over and over again. Thank you for making this video, and thanks for reading this! have a good day whoever comes across this. ❤️
Man, same honestly. I didn't even watch the last two seasons but I still get emotional about the show every now and then when I think about it for too long. However disappointed I was in it I'll always have a special place in my heart for it since it affected me so positively at one point in my life. 😭
same, its 2021 and i still cant let go, I watched up until the last ep cause I already know what happens and I don't wanna fully believe it, like it felt like they were building klance up to were it would be cannon it the finale like it should have been since they started as rivals but this show will always be important to be even through all the problems in the end, and i will rewatch it a thousand times over :)
Man...I've never had a freakin' SHOW hurt me like _Voltron_ did, and I still have issues thinking about it, but this...this was nice. This video encapsulates what was beautiful about _Voltron,_ what made me enjoy it and keep watching it in the first place. Thanks.
almost 3 years later and this is still a masterpiece that makes me feel SOOO MANY THINGS and at the top of that list of feelings is my desire to rewatch voltron
I watched this. Then I went and watched it again. And just, holy shit? This is easily the best Voltron video I’ve ever seen. The music, the shots, and the quotes were layered incredibly well and I started to get emotional near the end. This video is amazing!
Holy shit. I sat there for a solid minute or two before I could even form enough words to comment. Because I was blown away by that CMV. That was easily the best Voltron CMV I've ever seen, and possibly the best CMV in general. It was mesmerizing, it was stitched together so perfectly, and it connected to my heart in a way things rarely do. You are so incredibly talented, and I am so in awe. Thank you so much for making this. I will definitely be showing this to all my friends! Thank you so much again for making this, watching this vid has made my day!
God.. this got recommend to me after all these years.. and damn.. I kind of miss voltron man.. It couldve been the perfect show.. watching this was kind of bittersweet and nostalgic ngl
one of my favorite parts of this is when the lyric "the stars, the moon, they have all been blown out" is paired with Allura looking at the huge burning mass in their direction. I get chillllssss!!!
Hit all the right notes for this series, well done. You can see all the effort you put into this, from the careful build-up of dialogue to the synchronized scenes depicting each of the team member's individual struggles. Hands down, the best amv and most accurate portrayal of Voltron I've seen. Just awesome, thank you for your hard work and dedication!
this video hold so much emotion and memories for me, it still is one of the best things that happened to me, this video made me remember all the emotions i had while watching Voltron all those years ago
This so so damn good. Holy crap. I picked up editing as a side hobby recently and know just how much slicing and cutting and timing that all takes. Its visually and technically flipping beautiful. Good job man.
I was a little late to the Voltron thing, because when I saw it I saw on Netflix. I’ve watched it about 16 times. It’s not like other shows where you grow out of it, I have been sticking to this show for the past 3 years.
ohh shit lol this is so good! When u made the first chorus kind of slow paced i knew u were gonna go hard for the second chorus lmao and u did not disappoint !! This is probably my favorite voltron video.. i love ur variety with footage from all the seasons and the fact that u didnt just use the classic or most popular scenes. I think it encompasses the show as a whole really well. And the use of voiceovers and subtle sound effects once and a while flows really well and adds a lot of depth to the vid! Great job with this vid!
Voltron was my entire life while it was still ongoing. The characters meant everything and I had never been so into a fandom before. I was absolutely crushed by the way the last half of the seasons were handled. The ending tore me apart. Voltron was my hyperfixation and it felt like I was mourning a death after it was over. I distanced myself from the mess of a fandom but occasionally I come back to this masterpiece. It makes me feel so many feelings and means so much to me. The song is still one of my absolute favorites and I first heard it here. The artistry and talent evident in this video is immense. Truly beautiful❤️
I do not like it when amvs are unedited sceens with music in the backround. This video has done what a amv should be it took all the characters momemts and made them one showing that each character is fighting equally to pit an end to evil. Very well made
I have watched this way too many times to count. It always brings back so many good memories of mine. Reminds me of how I’ve rewatched Voltron so many times too haha. This video keeps coming up in my recommendations every single year, and I’m proud to say I’ve watched it every single time. The video overall is just amazing and gives such a great feeling of nostalgia and happiness for me. Maybe I should go watch Voltron again!
Also: THE ENDING SEQUENCE WITH SAM HOLT TALKING??? BEAUTIFUL. JUST BEAUTIFUL. AN AMAZING WAY TO END AN AMAZING VIDEO THIS IS HONESTLY MY NEW FAVORITE VIDEO
At first, the video was a bit slow paced, but I could start to feel how the emotion of this video will end up being. It didn't hit me until @2:30 when I felt myself just...chilled. This song and just how the whole video was sequenced...you can feel the pull of sadness, longing, belonging, exclusion, etc. Amazing video @MockingJamie. A huge thank you for taking your time to make this.
Also, might I add, it wasn't flashy. Or extremely edited to become something empowering. The insert of dialogue and just the addition of specific scenes to the emotions of the music causes this whole other vibe. It can completely relate to how the show is. And, I just love it. It is perfect.
This is a kids show that is literally rated y7 but my heart and soul have left my body. You have captured all the critical moments and the moments that just show how much this show is. "No, please no!" "Good bye, Allura." All those quotes my god i am crying and i havent gotten out of bed yet. Keep going my friend!
You invoke all the right emotions with this video. Pushing the right buttons to stun me with this majesty is no small feat. I started tearing up! Makes me want to watch it all over again... I remember when I first started the show. I had seen memes of it over and over and I eventually decided to watch it. Boy was I NOT disappointed. Thank you for reminding me how much I like Voltron... Lotsa love 💕
I still can't believe Voltron ended 6 years ago, it's been so much time and I miss the old good days of 2016-2018 I was 9 when I finished that show for the first time and now I'm 14 I realize those were the best days of my life.
If it wasn't for the brief moment when this video showed on my dash, i would probably never found it and never realise how much this song fits the entire show, and i totally agree - that is the best Voltron video of all (i'm not sure why i'm reacting so emotionally, maybe you just found the key to my heart with this :'''D). So, so grateful for that
i have no words, all i can say is that, mocking jamie, you have a gift. edit: OK I HAVE WORDS NOW. dude!!! what the hell, you managed to bring bakc the joy I lost during the ending, like, all of it came back to me with each beat of the song, the fights, the heart ach the drama, every thing, just wow. im a old time voltron fan, have been watcin' it sence the begining, and yet your vid makes me want to watch it again edit 2: I have now convinced my self that this is witch craft and sorccery.
Even after it ended and I wasn’t happy with the last season,(they murdered my babyyy) this still hits me and my breath gets caught in my throat, and my eyes start to prickle with tears. You made an amazing video that made me feel every second of it and it’s incredible. The sheer and raw talent you have to bring together a small 4 minute video from hundreds of clips, and it to make me feel the slow and emotional burn i felt for 7 seasons. It’s insanely, incredibly, beautifully done.
One of my favorite parts of the video is how Pidge's yelling blends in with the song at 1:33 - 1:35. It's just too much. This is my favorite Voltron AMV!! I love a lot of things that are happening in this, like how beautiful moments and scenery are captured, the video is very dramatic without seeming overly-dramatic, and how it's one of the things that remind me how hard those people worked on the show. A lot of the time when I look through Voltron content outside of the actual show, it doesn't make me feel anything close to what this video makes me feel. I'm glad the show finally captured more of your interest... I love VLD, and it's awesome that such a great editor is editing videos for it. Thanks for this!
This makes me want to cry my eyes out tbh. This show was so good and could have been even better until... so much happened. Regardless of all the drama this show holds such a special place in my heart. RIP
I've watched so many edits before and this still will always be my all-time favorite of Voltron I just wish I could download it so I had it for the rest of my life.
Btw I first watched this like 2 years ago and every single time it still makes me tear up and get super happy and makes me want to watch Voltron a million more times. (even after season 8)
No ships or weird toxic drama, no promotion of uncharacteristic behavior from any of the characters. This video glorifies everything I love about Voltron. It's pure and beautiful and radiates a grand story with beautiful visuals. It just brings me right out of the toxic fandom and into this world of serenity that reminds me why I watch Voltron, and why I love it so much. Dam dude, Thank You.
*SOBS AT THE BEAUTY OF THIS TRIBUTE* OK, HOW COULD I HAVE MISSED THE EPIC MAJESTY THAT IS THIS VIDEO?? I mean, damn! It's so pretty, I have no words! It's just, this song and my space family and just epic wonder everywhere! I just...I got nothing, tears just tears! *claps* I love it so much!! (:
this is...gorgeous. i have no words, i’m just in awe at this. the perfect scenes, the perfect song, the most heartwrenching voice lines, im on the verge of tears right now. i almost started crying when you used the clip from the graveyard with pidge, i was sobbing during that episode and so that line just...it’s fantastic. this is my favorite voltron video i’ve ever seen.
Man, THIS is what I loved Voltron for. It deserves so much better than the ending it got. I’m just glad Dreamworks seems to have learned their lesson since She-Ra honestly felt like an apology for Voltron hahaha And then Kipo was amazing, too. I’ll still always be sad at Voltron’s lost potential, though. This video is the salve to my wounds lol
Every once in a while I come-back to this video and I want to cry all over again. You really grasped the essence of the voltron serie and I can't thank you enough for that.
Man, I remember watching this amv years ago and it's what made me watch voltron in the first place. I still get emotional watching it honestly, the scenes and dialogue are so well placed in with the song🫶
When sam was predicting pidge's future i bet he didnt want his youngun to be caught up in a 10k year space war. But he was right, they were chosen for their roles and they gave it their all. And ugh why the feels man
I cried I’m not gonna lie this gave me the nostalgia from when me and my best friend watched voltron and we absoloutley loved it and kept watching it until it ended
This is still one of my favorite shows even though I finished it years ago. It holds a special place in my heart. This video was one of the first ones that pulled me into the fandom. This show had me holding onto the edge of my seat at times and kept me excited to see the next part. This video always makes me feel that all over again. And to top it off it’s one of my favorite songs ever. And the quotes from the show added into the video makes it feel so much more intense. Thank you for making this masterpiece!
I swear this show could have been so much, it had so much potential, it’s of course an AMAZING masterpiece, I’m just still sorry about a pair of things. Besides that, I do love them so much, they’re my comfort place and I literally CANNOT stop myself from crying my heart out every single time I watch this. Embracing the fact that all of this is fictional and can’t really talk to/hug all of the characters it’s hard, but this edit makes the struggle a little less bad, so I can feel a little less lonely. Thank you.
Thank you ❤️ and I agree. No matter how bitter I am about how the show ended it was so important to me and still holds such a special and comfortable place in my heart that I don't think I'll ever fully let it go. It was my comfort show/fandom at my loneliest point of university and that will always mean something to me. I'm glad I could help you feel a little better with this video even if it's just for a moment and I hope you have a good day today (or soon, even if it isn't today) :)
This is REALLY well put together👌 I can tell that this was a challenging song to do and you did outstanding!🙀 I am an editor myself AnD know it takes a long time to make these👍 I can really see your effort come through. Kudos to you❤
It’s been four years since this came out and it’s still an amazing video. I love how it shows how fascinating Voltron and it’s story is. Also love how it shows mostly all the important scenes (in my opinion)
I remember watching the show when it was airing and getting so hyperfixated on it whenever a trailer, spoiler or season came out that i wouldnt be able to do anything else besides watch it and interact with other fans for at least a month. The show was given a poor ending but i still look back on it in a good light because it gave all of us so much which i am very grateful for
I know it has been so long since voltron ended, but every time I watch this masterpiece I still get goosebumps. I recently started a rewatch and what beautiful memories it brought back❤❤❤
Honestly I still can’t fully wrap my head around it and it’s my own video haha!! I kinda stopped actively participating in VLD fandom shortly after uploading these so I just constantly forget cause I wasn’t really there beyond like, my TH-cam stats. Like I’ll just remember this video in the middle of grocery shopping or something and it’s so funny every time. I appreciate it so much though 😭
I think the most heartbreaking part of this video is that it so accurately represents how good and impactful this show could have been if the creators hadn't screwed it up in the last few seasons.
Absolutely
I honestly thought all the seasons were fantastic, season six and seven were for sure my favorites. But I agree with they could’ve ended season eight much better.
Nah it wasn't their faults, they were required changes in last moments when everything was already set up
For example they were planning on killing off Shiro and had everything ready, the story, the plot, the storyboards, but then they got a new requirement to keep him alive, a few changes s like these were made too late so they had to come up with ways to make their jobs easier because it would take too long to rewrite everything plus make storyboards and then reanimate everything again
They had no choice in the matter
Right? for what it was, it was still the characters we loved
@@imlivinginyourbasement6157 So basically it was Netflix's fault 💀
"Don't do it Keith!"
... that hit different.
I currently watching the show. At the end of season seven as I write this. That scene has stuck with me throughout the entire show.
Lunar which episode was that??
tuana
I’m not sure I remember exactly, I think it was the last episode of season three or four maybe?
Lunar thanks!!
I watched that scene with my young cousin (she’s around 7-8) and I cried but she didn’t understand, bc she was young, that Keith basically tried to kill himself-
Am I the only person who gets all emotional when watching this? Like, sympathy, anger, remorse?
I love Spider-Man I’ve never felt so many emotions at once, but here I am
Fujiboo YES. I felt so much anxiety and angst and most of all, sadness. This vid just pulled so many emotions from me and chills got me every second. It’s ridiculously amazing and I can’t get about of it 😭 💕
Same here it’s just so sad but happy then depressed by watching them it makes you wanna start crying and it’s as if you miss them but there is one part of your heart going like there has to be more videos of Voltron. It’s just all emotions mixed up as one for short.I miss the klance and all of the. 😭😢😞
The tears are pouring down my face and I cant seem to stop them.
Fujiboo omg right
This is better than the actual show
It's so full of emotion, it carries the message of what Voltron was meant to be
If the show carried this energy with it it could have been amazing
at least voltron aint bad as she ra
@@gatos1800 idk she ra was pretty good
@@gatos1800 lmao
@@florencewoah plot wise it was good until the last few seasons. they were so terrible and catras redemption arc and the whole catradora thing was so toxic and abusive. the she ra writers really did my girl adora wrong 🥲
was just thinking that.
the hard-hitting quotes were perfect in here..
i love this video way too much
"Goodbye, Allura."
"For Narti."
and of course, saM HOLT
"Something tells me that you're gonna have your own crew someday, and you're going to fly with them to worlds so far away we can't even imagine. I bet my bottom dollar you're going to be a part of something that makes the whole universe sit up, and take notice."
Don't forget Allura's "You will never destroy another innocent world"
u right
I STARTED TEARING UP OMG
ESPECIALLY AT THE " Goodbye Allura" and at Sam's prediction of Pidge in the future omg, it puts it all into perspective. I;m crying
Pidge screaming was also the best
@Manahil Chaudhry And shiro yelling "Stop it!"
It's almost been a year since VLD ended. This show will always have a special little place in my heart, despite the injustices it received at its ending.

@@Tacomans_56 yeah I agree cause my fav died ;-;
why did i cry reading this?
I was so hurt and broken when I finished the last episode literally balled and haven’t forgotten about it since. I’m so happy I was able to experience watching the show even if it broke me to my core.
It’s the best show i’ve come across yet and i cant stop watching it. It’s just one of those series, ya know?
THEY SHOULD HIRE YOU TO DO THEIR TRAILERS AAAAHHHHHHHH
PLEEEAAAASSSEEE
ғᴏʀᴇᴠᴇʀᴍᴏʀᴇ I AGREE
Yaaaa they shouldddddd
YEESSS
100% agree you videos are AMAZING
This makes me remember how voltron was collectively the best and the worst thing ever
big mood
It started Great and ended Bad.
I never watched Voltron but god damn after this video I'm totally going to
Otoxin same
Otoxin sooo, how was it?
Otoxin it Will be the Best choice of your life btw i would recomend the 80s versión of voltron (for laughs)
Yes, please do! Tell us what you thought later on XD
Otoxin :D
Every few months I come back to this edit because it just perfectly captures how amazing this show truly was. I feel like if DreamWorks didn't fuck up what the production team had already created for the end, it could have been so impactful. Wish I could experience this show for the first time again.
agreed!! what i would give to have a memory wipe machine just to keep rewatching it
Wow. I don't even know what to say right now. This is hands down the best Voltron video I've ever seen. I don't think any of others even come close to how epic this one is and how well it captures the show as a whole. Everything was in there: their found family, their struggles, their destiny as Voltron, and their fight against Zarkon. This video is so layered and has such an amazing build up. I got chills during the second chorus! Thank you so much for making this beautiful video!
agreed
Ilovehertjes So much yes.
Ilovehertjes true
definitely
THIS IS LIKE A GIANT TRAILER FOR THE WHOLE SERIES
I'll forever remember the moment where Pidge comes upon the graveyard and thinks Matt died. It was really heart wrenching to watch even after you know he's alive.
i remember watching that for the first time after the season came out, and it. it hurt so so much. pidge's SCREAM - bex is such a talented voice actress, cause damn, i _felt_ it. it's such a beautiful and heartbreaking moment in television and it really made me think: this is grief.
I saw this and ended up binge watching all of Voltron in about three days. You monster. This was beautiful. It is nothing short of a masterpiece. I love how you incorporated the voice overs and created a very powerful story. Also, I can't believe that before watching the show, I thought that Lance with a jellyfish over his head was a super emotional moment. Oh how wrong I was.
FSDJFLASDFJSDKL oh my god I was actually wondering if anybody would think anything of the jellyfish shot so this actually made my day (and omg thank you sm!! welcome to voltron hell)
I honestly don't know if anyone feels the same, but this video makes me want to experience Voltron again. I can't bring myself to watch it all over because I remember all the experiences I had when each season was still coming out, the fan art, the fanfics, the tumblr theories - everything. I'd honestly give anything to watch Voltron for the first time again, it's such a magical show to me and even the later seasons meant a lot even if they weren't perfect because I feel like we all got to experience it together :)
Same. I just can't watch it anymore because of just all those feels it has subjected me to. It has legit impacted how I get into new shows. I think I'm going to get "burned" like I did in Voltron. But I wouldn't go back for a second.
fr dude. the shipping fandom was always weird and toxic (happened to myself a couple times too, no matter how ashamed I am to say it 😭) and I tried to rewatch it but this show had such a chokehold on me. ESPECIALLY klance. too fucking much. I was insanely obsessed and for some reason I still am and I can't tell you why because I don't know. the emotions this show gives me are so bittersweet and it's so sad.
You said it
i had the same feelings about rewatching just bc i knew it would be so hard emotionally. i watched the show when i was 13-14. i was so so depressed, i had no purpose and everyday was a fight. in less than two months i turn 21. in three months i’ll be celebrating four years with my partner, and two years living in our own apartment. a few weeks ago i decided to rewatch the first episode just for kicks and my partner was in the room and they really liked it. we started watching it together and. i cant even put the feeling into words. it’s weird to rewatch it, but it’s mostly been really nice. i’ve kind of gone through a phase recently where i’ve gotten back into all my old fandoms but instead of using them as a shield from the world i just use them as a source of happiness. it’s kind of my way of saying goodbye to my teenage years?? i think by the time i finish the series again i’ll be thankful i did it. plus i forgot just how fucking GOOD this show is, forgetting all the bullshit between fans and creators, just enjoying everything it has to offer has been the best part. at the end of the day it’s a story i’ll always keep close to my heart, it’s comforting and it’s just good. also for me personally it’s been cool to notice how i react to it now versus how i did back then, i learn a lot through doing stuff like that. sorry this is so long, but this comment section feels very comforting, thanks for reading if you did
My best friend introduced me to Voltron back when season 1 aired, we were obsessed with it, until my best friend grew out of the show around season 2 and didn't watch it anymore, I spent years watching this show, crying, cheering, laughing, getting shocked, and at the Season 8 Finale, I cried, hard. I grew up with this show, I remember me having the best birthday ever because Season 5 came out on my Birthday, I spent the whole day watching Voltron, my entire life was this show. I miss it so much. I know everyone says the show was trash after season 3, I don't agree, some of my fav seasons are after season 3, but I do love Season 2 so much, ah screw it, I love every episode, I quote the lines in Voltron daily. I watch the Space Mall episode before I go to bed everynight. It's my favourite episode of the whole show. And, I don't really ship anyone, I love all the relationships in this show, I think they're all adorable, I've re-watched Voltron at Least 4 times during quarantine, and it makes me so happy to see people here in 2020 who still love this show...it's been an honour flying with ya'll
This show was what made me get close to my friends, every time a trailer for a new season would drop I would text it to our group chat, we got more people to watch it. it started with just me and one friend who happened to watch it and we started making references with made the other people start watching it, we got six other people to start watching it, we would get super hyped for a new season and some of us would stay up all night together to watch it. we talked theories to ships (respectfully tho most shipped klance but there was one sheith shipper and a plance shipper too) and we all got assigned a character (i was keith) and we roleplayed, the first sleepover i was even invited too was partly a voltron
sleepover. and at the last season we all got together i think 5 (one couldn't make it) and we watched the entire last season together, we stayed up until 5am watching it since we had school and had to wait for people to arrive but, we watched it all and were screaming and yelling the entire time, the adult of the house did not get any sleep that night. A few of us cried at the end and we all hated the end. but we went through it together and it was one of the main reasons we all even became friends. But even though the disappointment I cant hate this show, Its been an honor flying with you.
@@MyShipsHaveCannons that, that's beautiful
THIS COMMENT MADE ME CRY
omg, I'm crying, that was beautiful 😭💖
Same 💕
Voltron: Defenders of the Universe is a show that my dad watched when he was a kid. When I went on Netflix one day, it was on the home screen while my dad was in my room. That's how I got into Voltron: Legendary Defender. I wish I had watched it when it came out, but, I never knew about it, so here I am watching it in late 2023 and early-to-mid 2024....
*IM CRYING THIS IS SO GOOD*
Eilrachi fucking same
Yee same
when you actually cried because of this😔
Same
I cry every fricking time
It's been a good long while since this show ended.. it might've been a complete trainwreck in the end, but honestly? I can't bring myself to hate this show. It was my escape, and it still holds a special place in my tiny heart. Even though the end was heartbreaking.. and the community around it was questionable, it was still one of my favorite shows. I would watch it over and over again. Thank you for making this video, and thanks for reading this! have a good day whoever comes across this. ❤️
Man, same honestly. I didn't even watch the last two seasons but I still get emotional about the show every now and then when I think about it for too long. However disappointed I was in it I'll always have a special place in my heart for it since it affected me so positively at one point in my life. 😭
It's 2021 and I can't let it go... So.. Same ^^
@@MockingJamie Last Two Season Failed Badly. Masterpiece got destroyed in Executives foolishness.
@@gulchi Before Season 8 i watched it like ten times but end. I'm never going back. Just enjoy AMVs online.
same, its 2021 and i still cant let go, I watched up until the last ep cause I already know what happens and I don't wanna fully believe it, like it felt like they were building klance up to were it would be cannon it the finale like it should have been since they started as rivals but this show will always be important to be even through all the problems in the end, and i will rewatch it a thousand times over :)
10/10, best Voltron edit
100%agreed
Agree
Yesssss!
Man...I've never had a freakin' SHOW hurt me like _Voltron_ did, and I still have issues thinking about it, but this...this was nice. This video encapsulates what was beautiful about _Voltron,_ what made me enjoy it and keep watching it in the first place. Thanks.
Watch Akame ga Kill 😔 tip for u is don’t get attached to ANY characters 😭
@@neejaaw7855 Uh, no. Why would I intentionally watch something that hurts me? That's the exact opposite of what I meant by my comment.
This isn't just a regular Voltron video,
This is a legit work of art.
Thank you for taking the time to craft something so spectacular
almost 3 years later and this is still a masterpiece that makes me feel SOOO MANY THINGS and at the top of that list of feelings is my desire to rewatch voltron
Yes 👏
I watched this.
Then I went and watched it again.
And just, holy shit? This is easily the best Voltron video I’ve ever seen. The music, the shots, and the quotes were layered incredibly well and I started to get emotional near the end. This video is amazing!
“Goodbye Allura” hits different still 😭😭😭
i cried when aIlura dies
Holy shit. I sat there for a solid minute or two before I could even form enough words to comment. Because I was blown away by that CMV. That was easily the best Voltron CMV I've ever seen, and possibly the best CMV in general. It was mesmerizing, it was stitched together so perfectly, and it connected to my heart in a way things rarely do. You are so incredibly talented, and I am so in awe. Thank you so much for making this. I will definitely be showing this to all my friends! Thank you so much again for making this, watching this vid has made my day!
I KNOW RIGHT? This CMV is fucking incredible, I actually cried when i watched this, and I keep coming back to it LOL
Yeah, words can barely begin to describe how much I love this!!!
What does CMV stand for?
@@alra1033 CMV stands for 'Cosplay Music Video'...I think what they meant was AMV which is 'Animated Music Video'.
God.. this got recommend to me after all these years.. and damn.. I kind of miss voltron man.. It couldve been the perfect show.. watching this was kind of bittersweet and nostalgic ngl
It's been over five years now since the show ended and I still get this horrible pang of sadness in my chest I think watch this
I think I watch this maybe a couple times every year, just to see if the feelings will ever wear off. It's 2020 now. They haven't worn off.
definitely havent
glad its not just me :')
two years later, and I still cry my eyes out whenever I see this
one of my favorite parts of this is when the lyric "the stars, the moon, they have all been blown out" is paired with Allura looking at the huge burning mass in their direction. I get chillllssss!!!
the way i miss this show. it had so much potential
Hit all the right notes for this series, well done. You can see all the effort you put into this, from the careful build-up of dialogue to the synchronized scenes depicting each of the team member's individual struggles. Hands down, the best amv and most accurate portrayal of Voltron I've seen. Just awesome, thank you for your hard work and dedication!
this video hold so much emotion and memories for me, it still is one of the best things that happened to me, this video made me remember all the emotions i had while watching Voltron all those years ago
This so so damn good. Holy crap. I picked up editing as a side hobby recently and know just how much slicing and cutting and timing that all takes. Its visually and technically flipping beautiful. Good job man.
azure-mirror what a beautiful pfp
I was a little late to the Voltron thing, because when I saw it I saw on Netflix. I’ve watched it about 16 times. It’s not like other shows where you grow out of it, I have been sticking to this show for the past 3 years.
same
ohh shit lol this is so good! When u made the first chorus kind of slow paced i knew u were gonna go hard for the second chorus lmao and u did not disappoint !! This is probably my favorite voltron video.. i love ur variety with footage from all the seasons and the fact that u didnt just use the classic or most popular scenes. I think it encompasses the show as a whole really well. And the use of voiceovers and subtle sound effects once and a while flows really well and adds a lot of depth to the vid! Great job with this vid!
omg I meant to reply to this earlier but thank you!! and I really did try to use a variety of scenes to keep it interesting so I'm glad it paid off :D
Voltron was my entire life while it was still ongoing. The characters meant everything and I had never been so into a fandom before. I was absolutely crushed by the way the last half of the seasons were handled. The ending tore me apart. Voltron was my hyperfixation and it felt like I was mourning a death after it was over. I distanced myself from the mess of a fandom but occasionally I come back to this masterpiece. It makes me feel so many feelings and means so much to me. The song is still one of my absolute favorites and I first heard it here. The artistry and talent evident in this video is immense. Truly beautiful❤️
Your editing is incredible! The pacing, the scenes, transitions, everything just flowed so well together.
Awesome job
"Goodbye Allura" is sooo heartbreaking 😭
I do not like it when amvs are unedited sceens with music in the backround. This video has done what a amv should be it took all the characters momemts and made them one showing that each character is fighting equally to pit an end to evil. Very well made
I have watched this way too many times to count. It always brings back so many good memories of mine. Reminds me of how I’ve rewatched Voltron so many times too haha. This video keeps coming up in my recommendations every single year, and I’m proud to say I’ve watched it every single time. The video overall is just amazing and gives such a great feeling of nostalgia and happiness for me. Maybe I should go watch Voltron again!
Oh my god. This is phenomenal. I replayed this three times to get the full feeling it's... wow. Your editing is amazing.
Also: THE ENDING SEQUENCE WITH SAM HOLT TALKING??? BEAUTIFUL. JUST BEAUTIFUL. AN AMAZING WAY TO END AN AMAZING VIDEO THIS IS HONESTLY MY NEW FAVORITE VIDEO
I'm back after 3 years, goddamn
Nostalgia hits hard
@@creativityintensifies it really does
At first, the video was a bit slow paced, but I could start to feel how the emotion of this video will end up being. It didn't hit me until @2:30 when I felt myself just...chilled. This song and just how the whole video was sequenced...you can feel the pull of sadness, longing, belonging, exclusion, etc. Amazing video @MockingJamie. A huge thank you for taking your time to make this.
Also, might I add, it wasn't flashy. Or extremely edited to become something empowering. The insert of dialogue and just the addition of specific scenes to the emotions of the music causes this whole other vibe. It can completely relate to how the show is. And, I just love it. It is perfect.
This is a kids show that is literally rated y7 but my heart and soul have left my body. You have captured all the critical moments and the moments that just show how much this show is. "No, please no!" "Good bye, Allura." All those quotes my god i am crying and i havent gotten out of bed yet. Keep going my friend!
THIS IS THE GREATEST VOLTRON EDIT TO EVER EXIST!!!!! I HAVE KEPT WATCHING THIS FOR years. idk. it's like my comfort edit. it is so GORGEOUS
After 6 years, I can't let this show go. And watching this, I don't want to.
SAME, I just want to go back to the time it was still airing and when the fandom was at its peak
You invoke all the right emotions with this video. Pushing the right buttons to stun me with this majesty is no small feat. I started tearing up! Makes me want to watch it all over again...
I remember when I first started the show. I had seen memes of it over and over and I eventually decided to watch it. Boy was I NOT disappointed. Thank you for reminding me how much I like Voltron... Lotsa love 💕
I still can't believe Voltron ended 6 years ago, it's been so much time and I miss the old good days of 2016-2018
I was 9 when I finished that show for the first time and now I'm 14 I realize those were the best days of my life.
If it wasn't for the brief moment when this video showed on my dash, i would probably never found it and never realise how much this song fits the entire show, and i totally agree - that is the best Voltron video of all (i'm not sure why i'm reacting so emotionally, maybe you just found the key to my heart with this :'''D). So, so grateful for that
This video made me cry so much and rewatch voltron about a million times
its tradition that i come back to this every once in a while. i miss this show :(
Me too man me too...
i have no words, all i can say is that, mocking jamie, you have a gift.
edit: OK I HAVE WORDS NOW. dude!!! what the hell, you managed to bring bakc the joy I lost during the ending, like, all of it came back to me with each beat of the song, the fights, the heart ach the drama, every thing, just wow. im a old time voltron fan, have been watcin' it sence the begining, and yet your vid makes me want to watch it again
edit 2: I have now convinced my self that this is witch craft and sorccery.
Even after it ended and I wasn’t happy with the last season,(they murdered my babyyy) this still hits me and my breath gets caught in my throat, and my eyes start to prickle with tears. You made an amazing video that made me feel every second of it and it’s incredible. The sheer and raw talent you have to bring together a small 4 minute video from hundreds of clips, and it to make me feel the slow and emotional burn i felt for 7 seasons. It’s insanely, incredibly, beautifully done.
Okay, pidge's scream kills me everytime I watch this. I shared it with my sister, and now she shares my pain.
One of my favorite parts of the video is how Pidge's yelling blends in with the song at 1:33 - 1:35. It's just too much.
This is my favorite Voltron AMV!! I love a lot of things that are happening in this, like how beautiful moments and scenery are captured, the video is very dramatic without seeming overly-dramatic, and how it's one of the things that remind me how hard those people worked on the show. A lot of the time when I look through Voltron content outside of the actual show, it doesn't make me feel anything close to what this video makes me feel. I'm glad the show finally captured more of your interest... I love VLD, and it's awesome that such a great editor is editing videos for it. Thanks for this!
I come back every once in a why to watch this edit, is so good thats it just makes my hearthache. i trully love this show but it hurts.
This makes me want to cry my eyes out tbh. This show was so good and could have been even better until... so much happened.
Regardless of all the drama this show holds such a special place in my heart.
RIP
I've watched so many edits before and this still will always be my all-time favorite of Voltron I just wish I could download it so I had it for the rest of my life.
Btw I first watched this like 2 years ago and every single time it still makes me tear up and get super happy and makes me want to watch Voltron a million more times. (even after season 8)
Voltron and Florence + the Machine, my two favorite things. Good job my friend
Same
Its been 3 years... i still can't get over the ending🙂💔
its been 4 years since this edit came out, and I still make it a ritual to play it once a month because its so beautiful and emotional.
No ships or weird toxic drama, no promotion of uncharacteristic behavior from any of the characters. This video glorifies everything I love about Voltron. It's pure and beautiful and radiates a grand story with beautiful visuals. It just brings me right out of the toxic fandom and into this world of serenity that reminds me why I watch Voltron, and why I love it so much.
Dam dude,
Thank You.
Every year I have to come back and watch this at least once - It's still the best AMV I've ever watched.
this made me feel so many emotions at the same time like wtf that was amazing
*SOBS AT THE BEAUTY OF THIS TRIBUTE* OK, HOW COULD I HAVE MISSED THE EPIC MAJESTY THAT IS THIS VIDEO?? I mean, damn! It's so pretty, I have no words! It's just, this song and my space family and just epic wonder everywhere! I just...I got nothing, tears just tears! *claps* I love it so much!! (:
holy hell mate. its been like 2 years since ive finished this show and i still can get over it.
I've never been so emotionally touched
Im not crying u are 🥺
I know im late, but i just had to say this is amazing, and this song was made for this, just wow
I am glad I was apart of this fandom. When I listen to this it makes me want to do all over again.
This made me cry so much..... You know what? I'm watching voltron again. I can't not now
this is...gorgeous. i have no words, i’m just in awe at this. the perfect scenes, the perfect song, the most heartwrenching voice lines, im on the verge of tears right now. i almost started crying when you used the clip from the graveyard with pidge, i was sobbing during that episode and so that line just...it’s fantastic. this is my favorite voltron video i’ve ever seen.
a reminder that the show first came out 5 years ago, I remember binge watching that show the entire summer
The fact that this still hits hard after Voltron ended over a year ago says something
yes
Man, THIS is what I loved Voltron for. It deserves so much better than the ending it got. I’m just glad Dreamworks seems to have learned their lesson since She-Ra honestly felt like an apology for Voltron hahaha And then Kipo was amazing, too. I’ll still always be sad at Voltron’s lost potential, though. This video is the salve to my wounds lol
All these years later, this is still the best Amv I have ever seen
Still.... that best AMV I have EVER seen
I came here every once in while after 3 years just to remenber how good this is
Every once in a while I come-back to this video and I want to cry all over again. You really grasped the essence of the voltron serie and I can't thank you enough for that.
Every single time I watch this after a while I rewatch voltron and want to cry, my god.
I’m never going to get over them am I.
Who else feels bad for Pidge the most ❤
Man, I remember watching this amv years ago and it's what made me watch voltron in the first place. I still get emotional watching it honestly, the scenes and dialogue are so well placed in with the song🫶
When sam was predicting pidge's future i bet he didnt want his youngun to be caught up in a 10k year space war. But he was right, they were chosen for their roles and they gave it their all. And ugh why the feels man
op how does it feel having a video that is literally better than the entire show? :") i owe you a lot
I cried I’m not gonna lie this gave me the nostalgia from when me and my best friend watched voltron and we absoloutley loved it and kept watching it until it ended
This is still one of my favorite shows even though I finished it years ago. It holds a special place in my heart. This video was one of the first ones that pulled me into the fandom. This show had me holding onto the edge of my seat at times and kept me excited to see the next part. This video always makes me feel that all over again. And to top it off it’s one of my favorite songs ever. And the quotes from the show added into the video makes it feel so much more intense. Thank you for making this masterpiece!
As someone who watched voltron four times through. *GORGEOUS*
gorgeous like coran, a very gorgeous man
I swear this show could have been so much, it had so much potential, it’s of course an AMAZING masterpiece, I’m just still sorry about a pair of things. Besides that, I do love them so much, they’re my comfort place and I literally CANNOT stop myself from crying my heart out every single time I watch this. Embracing the fact that all of this is fictional and can’t really talk to/hug all of the characters it’s hard, but this edit makes the struggle a little less bad, so I can feel a little less lonely. Thank you.
Thank you ❤️ and I agree. No matter how bitter I am about how the show ended it was so important to me and still holds such a special and comfortable place in my heart that I don't think I'll ever fully let it go. It was my comfort show/fandom at my loneliest point of university and that will always mean something to me. I'm glad I could help you feel a little better with this video even if it's just for a moment and I hope you have a good day today (or soon, even if it isn't today) :)
This is REALLY well put together👌 I can tell that this was a challenging song to do and you did outstanding!🙀 I am an editor myself AnD know it takes a long time to make these👍 I can really see your effort come through. Kudos to you❤
this is now literally my favorite video I've ever seen. congratulations, I'm gonna go rewatch the entire show
Every once in a while I come back to rewatch this. It's honestly one of the best ones out there. Thank you
It’s been four years since this came out and it’s still an amazing video. I love how it shows how fascinating Voltron and it’s story is. Also love how it shows mostly all the important scenes (in my opinion)
I remember watching the show when it was airing and getting so hyperfixated on it whenever a trailer, spoiler or season came out that i wouldnt be able to do anything else besides watch it and interact with other fans for at least a month. The show was given a poor ending but i still look back on it in a good light because it gave all of us so much which i am very grateful for
I know it has been so long since voltron ended, but every time I watch this masterpiece I still get goosebumps. I recently started a rewatch and what beautiful memories it brought back❤❤❤
Was anyone else recommend this in 2020? Just me? Well I’m crying, just like the first time I saw this
Hands down the best Voltron amv out there. I could watch this for hours on loop and not get bored. Thank you for making it
"goodbye Allura"
OMGOMGOMGOMG THAT WAS SO GOOD
Just the pure chokehold this video has on the VLD fandom is unfathomable.
Honestly I still can’t fully wrap my head around it and it’s my own video haha!! I kinda stopped actively participating in VLD fandom shortly after uploading these so I just constantly forget cause I wasn’t really there beyond like, my TH-cam stats. Like I’ll just remember this video in the middle of grocery shopping or something and it’s so funny every time. I appreciate it so much though 😭
I didn’t realize how much I missed Voltron until I saw this in my recommendations
VLD had a huge impact on me, no matter how disappointing the ending was. it will always be a favorite of mine.
