Question for you; I just found this channel, and I absolutely adore your theories and explanations. Very rad. Do you plan to do any analysis of other shows?
Like for meh Shiro hair is white thanks to quintesence he got loaded with Stress, half Altean, experiment n stuff... Im not saing youre wrong just so many theories while the answer could be so easy
I hate the break it to you about with the part about the galra giving shiro the undercut. He had the undercut prior to leaving earth ( check out his garrison pic) the trip to Kerberos took around 5 months which gave ample time for his hair to grow, then he decided to wait until the mission was complete and back on earth tp get it cut again. But yes they also might've styled his hair orrrrrr he probs did it himself 😊
Okay, so I have an idea, and it has absolutely no evidence, it's just entirely speculation. But here it goes! What if the Shiro we see with Matt in one of the season four trailers (or one of the leaked Instagram images that floated around for a while there) was actually another clone of Shiro, just with a more accurate hairstyle? It's very possible that Matt never knew that Shiro escaped, so while the real Shiro may still be out there, wherever the black lion teleported him to, the Galra may have taken the opportunity to take the DNA they had and produce another clone to trick their most mischievous prisoner. From what we've seen from the leaked Korean season four trailer, Matt seems totally capable of escaping. He's strong and quick witted, and shown to be a great fighter. So maybe the thought of having Shiro with him is the only thing that stopped him? While I'm pretty sure the image of Shiro I'm thinking of has him in his black paladin armour, there may be some sort of explanation for this that I'm missing. Maybe that Matt doesn't know about Voltron, so the Galra gave "Shiro" that armor so that when he inevitably escapes, the paladins believe it's him? Matt is probably tricked to believe that it's the armour the Galra gave him because he's the Champion in the gladiator matches. As much as I'm hoping and praying that the Shiro we've seen in official season four content thus far is the real Shiro, I still think that there's a chance the writers may be out to play with us again. Again, this is all speculation, but if you could find evidence for this that'd be amazing!!
That's what I thought and I think there is another reason why the black Lion rejected Shiro, she needed him to the close the rip from the end of the other side of the altering reality since he was in the astral plane and be possibly that he might have carry some energy from the plane strong enough to destroy Lotor's gate
