Quote: rex said: I know the exact moment I realized how sub par voltron was. I was watching it and my grandmother walked in and said "Why are you still watching this, you know they will turn into the big robot in the last five minutes and beat the bad guy." I stopped watching it soon after that.
Thats also why I hate power rangers. All they did was rip off voltron.
Not really. They were made about the same time. (The Power Rangers for the first season or two were mostly footage from a Japanese kids show from the early 80's with just some new American footage and dialogue.) It's really a common plot structure for Japanese shows. A lot of other anime uses it as well. Hell, even American shows used it. Look at The Incredible Hulk.
