soon be watching the original Japanese series that Voltron was based on. So excited that Netflix has it! 
not sure if I'm excited for you or worried.
SugarMagnolia: I understand. I don't even really watch anime very often anymore. But... it's Voltron! Well, it's not.

Haven't seen that in years...
Let us know how much they chopped for the children of the '80s.
Segansca: From what I have read on it, the plot is a good bit different. The original series wasn't for kids so it was darker.
Most of the Anime marketed in the US to kids weren't originally aired as such in Japan.
