VOLTRON

Voltron is a Japanese animated Television series from September 10, 1984 to November 18, 1985, first titled Voltron: Defender of the Universe. There has been a remake of the series, made in the 1990s using CGI techniques. The 1980s Voltron series was based on two unrelated Japanese anime series Beast King GoLion and Kikou Kantai Dairugger XV (both originally produced by Toei Animation & Bandai). The anime was later dubbed into English and edited by the North American television production and distribution company World Events Productions. The adaptation was not a straight dub, however—as much violence as possible was removed from the original Japanese series

Different varieties of Voltron were created:

Lion Force Voltron (Voltron of the Far Universe)

Vehicle Voltron (Voltron of the Near Universe)

* The Aqua Fighter (Sea Team)
* The Turbo Terrain Fighter (Land Team)
* The Strato Fighter (Air Team)

Gladiator Voltron (Voltron of the Middle Universe)

New projects:

* Voltron: Fleet of Doom

* Voltron: The Third Dimension

violence in this cartoon was in the form of robots dueling each other with giant swords or guns, laser rays and advanced high tech weaponry.

kids would have picked up sticks and chased each thinking it were swords and hitting each other with imaginary weapons. wat would happen if one of them hit the other's eye with their imaginary weapon or a kid really got hurt.

there is violence involved in Voltron and as much at it is a great cartoon maybe someone might get hurt trying to be Voltron.
