watch the original Voltron. King of Beasts GoLion

[Jrockergirl]

Voltron: Defenders of Justice is a anime/cartoon many people grew up with and loved being one of the first Giant robo Mecha animes brought to american shores.

problem was Voltron was an edited version of GoLion censored for american fans and even had its own arc not in the original so Crunchyroll has added all 52 episodes to its website along with the other classic mecha series gundam.

first episode is free and the other 51 episodes will be free in 90 days or if you have a crunchyroll membership is free. I'll wait those pain stacking 90 days but after watching episode 1 and seeing the differences I will be a very happy person.

O...M...G! Yes! YES!
I always wanted to watch Voltron ( sadly cuz I was to young to watch ) looking forward for this

Very exciting! Voltron was one of my first exposures to anime so it will always have a special place in my memories.

Thanks for the heads-up!

interesting note is that Voltron was 72 episodes while the original Go Lion was 52 episodes, and voltron split from the original plot with its own arc so technically you can make Voltron its own series over them being the same.

Currently im on episodes 34 on Go Lion on Crunchy and will probably go watch the Voltron on Hulu after im done for kicks.

I grew up watching Voltron so to me this is pretty cool

I love anachronisms, not that Voltron is an anachronism, but everything that is retro is new again.

Haha I had both sets but in the end was told to give my younger brother one, gave him my voltron figures since I was a power ranger fan back in the original days myself.

Just finished Go Lion today after I got the Crunchyroll 50% off deal, which was 1 yrs of anime and drama for 50 bucks so easy enough.
