Description
Okay, I've gonna get this outta the way:I. WILL. NOT. BE. SURPRISED. IF. KEITH. AND. ALLURA. BECOME. A. COUPLE.
I am merely saying this because, they have been a couple since the 80's Voltron: Defender of the Universe. I'm just going off from past lore and because of what we've seen so far between Keith and Allura. Also, to all Klance shippers:
1. Lance is obviously straight and a wannabe Casanova. Here are three characters he's hit on over the course of the series: Nyma, Plaxum, ALLURA. ALL. OF. THEM. GIRLS. Hell, in the first episode, THE. VERY. FIRST. EPISODE. He was seen oggling up an attractive female Galaxy Garrison agent. Emphasis on "female". For crying out lo- HIS BIO EVEN STATES HIM AS A SELF-DESCRIBED LADIES MAN! The very reason his lion was stolen was because he had the hots for Nyma and she used that to her advantage. He's even shown giving Matt a death glare when he called Allura beautiful as if saying "Back off, pal, she's mine."
2. Lance and Keith are rivals... though their rivalry is one-sided. An example in this was when Lance was going down to the castle's swimming pool and he realized Keith was joining him. His reaction didn't come off as "Oh, Keith is joining me! Yay!" If anything, it came off as "Oh, not only am I not going to be swimming alone, I'm gonna be spending time with this guy." Hell, even the people behind the series have stated MULTIPLE TIMES that Klance will not be canon and, after that stunt involving one certain fan of the ship, will never be canon in any way shape or form.
3. Steve Yeun himself has hinted that Keith has some romantic feelings for Allura. Again, this draws from past canon.
So, in other words, it's okay if you ship Allura and Keith with other characters. That's fine. More power to ya. But if you go so far as to BLACKMAIL Studio Mir just because they won't make Klance canon, all I have to say is shut up and start acting like adults. So what if Keith and Allura become a couple? BIG. FRIGGIN'. WHOOP. It's only because Lauren Montgomery, Joaquim Dos Santos, and the rest of the VLD crew are fans of the original show and are retelling it in their own way.

I agree.
They need to admit they were doing it because they were into Yaoi and NOT claim it as a ship that should be canon.
I mean granted I'm not against homosexuality represented in a cartoon, but these people were NOT being good representatives when they blackmailed Dreamworks by showing leaked footage of the show's ending if their ship wasn't canon.
Also I'm not a fan of people changing a beloved character's sexuality just to appeal to a certain demographic (I'm looking at you Live-Action Beauty & the Beast) unless it's for a character that had little to no exploration on their sexuality in past incarnations (like Shiro [Legendary Defender] or Trini [Power Rangers 2017 Movie]).
And we all know Keith and Allura were meant to be a thing in all the other incarnations, so why fix what isn't broken?
Granted they almost did an okay job at changing tradition by making Lance and Allura a thing instead of Keith and Allura... but by the end they f***ed it up when they had Allura sacrificing herself to restore the multiverse. So yeah, they should've made Keith and Allura a thing and stuck closer to their roots.

Can be said for anyone, not really an original argument to us anymore.

Care to clarify where you heard that? I ship Kallura too, but I kinda need proof.

Personally; I'm REALLY f***ing hoping they make Kallura as canon as it was in past incarnations... which is 100%.
Look it's good to spread positive LGBT representation, but I'd rather they'd do that with shows that have no past incarnations (such as Steven Universe, Darling in the Franxx, and OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes) than changing the sexuality of a character from past incarnations JUST because "every tv show is spreading LGBT positivity these days".
To me that only sounds like a marketing ploy to get a bigger audience, and that's not how we should be representing sexualities. Disney tried to do it with LeFou from the Beauty & the Beast remake and reception on that decision from audiences were mixed at best and "totally let-down" at worst. Mainly because not only was LeFou implied to be straight in the original , they barely did ANYTHING with new sexual orientation at all! They just had him say a couple of things that imply his gayness and had a scene where he dances with a guy at the end and that's it.
My point is; It's not worth it to change a well known character's sexuality, and you don't have to do that to spread good LGBT representation. If you want to spread good LGBT representation, DON'T blackmail the creators into making your ship canon, and DON'T do it for money.

Kieth really stepped up in Season 6, and became more of the leader he was in the original show.
I hope we get to see the same, or better, chemistry between them in the upcoming seasons.
They will always be my OTP of the series.

I'm hoping Romelle and Shiro get some time to develop a relationship considering they were the OTP in the DOTU continuity.

Honestly, I'm starting to feel like the writers are shipping Lance and Allura. He gave her a pep talk that got her to use magic and save Voltron. Also, they had that moment after Lance unlocked the broadsword in the red bayard (might be misspelling that). That last one might've been the strongest shipping moment scene between any of the characters that I've seen on the show.
I don't want to be one of those fans who jump to conclusions. But that's the vibe I'm getting from recent episodes.

Also? Who cares if Klance isn't canon? It's THEIR. STORY. Not yours, not mine, not anyone else's. So they can pair whoever they like. It's not an alien concept.

Thanks. I mean, it's okay to ship whomever they want. More power to them. It's when they start attacking others and even going so far as to nearly get the show cancelled when I draw the line.

THANK YOU!
I mean people are allowed to "ship" characters with whoever they want, but going with the Voltron I grew up on it was ALWAYS Keith and Allura. The original series, Voltron 3D, Voltron-Force (even though that Keith seemed to be more of an arrogant prick IMO), and the comics from my understanding. I admit I started shipping Keith with Acxa because of how Allura treated him in season 2, but I will always be a Traditionalist when it comes to them, it is Keith and Allura that is the way of it. Just like if Shiro doesn't die, it has always been Shiro and Romelle.

We'd have to see if Romelle even shows up in this series. Well, her and Merla.

If they don't kill Shiro off, which I hope to the gods they do (to those who are frowning now - yeah I said it, deal with it), I can see them bringing her in as a sort of PTSD type councilor or someone to help Shiro recover from all that has been done to him.

Yeah, but that would mean she and her brothers would have to be surviving Alteans.
