The Absolute Biggest Issue I Have With Voltron Legendary Defender Weirdly Enough Isn't How The Writing

The absolute biggest issue I have with Voltron Legendary Defender weirdly enough isn't how the writing became a huge pile of confusing storylines and decisions.

It's the time when the show takes place. Please, let me explain, as I have pulled my hair out about this.

Confirmed by the writers, vld takes place in the year 2314. Okay. Fine. Makes sense. There's technology present in the show that we do not have in 2016/2017. Also Pidge stated that it took the Garrison ships a few months to get to Kerberos. Kerberos being one of Pluto's moons. This also implies that the space commissioners or companies that are involved in space travel and space adjacent activities declared Pluto a planet once again.

Shiro, our space dad and dilf in training, is 25 years old at the start of the series. He was born February 29, which is a date that is only available on a leap year.

Let's do some simple math, don't worry, I'll be your calculator. 2314 - 25 = 2289.

Ladies, Gentlemen, Nonbinary individuals, and possible other genders that I do not know about, 2289 is not a leap year. Neither is 2290. Would you all like to know when the next leap year is in this range of years? 2292.

Since I am a stickler for accuracy in regards to certain topics for reasons I can only blame my autism and ADHD on, the show taking place in the year 2314 bothers me. Please understand that this is simply a me problem. If Shiro was not my favorite character, or if he didn't share a birthday with my first adorable dog, I would not care about this blatant error.

If it helps to those who have the same issue as I do, my fix-it fic takes place 2317. It's not that much of a jump, but honestly it feels better knowing that the math lines up.

Thank you for taking your time to read this! Hope you all have a lovely day.

The baby Yugi I’m crying

DO YOU WANNA CRY MORE????

BABY YUGI ATTACK!

Enjoy~

Silly me thought I could outline like I used to in the olden days. Lizzie, you are 29, and have been out of creative writing classes for years, of course you can't write an outline in thirty minutes.

Silly me.

Here's the Zombie idea I had for YuGiOh GX.

This is entirely based on the zombie media I have watched. For those interested, it's the following: All of Us are Dead, #Alive, Train to Busan, Seoul Station, Kingdom. They are all Korean-based, yes.

Here’s what would happen if there was a zombie infestation at Duel Academy: Everyone would get infected. There would be no survivors.

Harsh of me to say, but Duel Academy is on a series of isolated islands off the coast of Japan. The zombie infection could start with any kid of staff member and it could spread quickly because of how close everyone is.

The dorm that would last the longest would be the male Obelisk Blue Dorm for the only reason that it is the biggest dorm on school grounds.

There is a possibility that the girl’s Obelisk Blue Dorm would survive a little longer due to having a boat in one episode; possibly a moat, but nothing is guaranteed. The dub of GX gives many characters the brains of actual peanuts, so having an infected student in the dorm is highly probable.

Slifer Red wouldn’t last long due to how terrible the infrastructure of the building is. Thin walls, close rooms, smallest dorm. It also doesn't help that the surrounding area of the dorm is small and compact.

Ra Yellow, while a little better when it comes to construction, would still be a bad dorm to be in during a zombie apocalypse. The dorm building is a bit bigger and has a dining hall.

The “best” place to be in Duel Academy during an apocalypse would have to be the main school building, but that’s not saying much. Design wise, the building is a fucking mess, and we never got a full floor plan of the it. I doubt it’s like any other Japanese school; might be more akin to a university or college.

The lack of survivors could be because of the collective IQs of the students and staff. I don't have much faith in those kids and adults, and honestly, neither should you. Chancellor Sheppard is one of the stupidest mother fuckers I have ever seen in any YuGiOh media, and that's saying a lot for both sub and dub.

Yes, I am saying that Chancellor Sheppard would hide an obvious zombie bite and a good chunk of the student body would believe him.

Writing Research - Ancient Egypt

Ancient Egypt was an ancient civilization of Northeastern Africa, concentrated along the lower reaches of the Nile River in what is now the modern country of Egypt. Egyptian civilization coalesced around 3150 BC (according to conventional Egyptian chronology) with the political unification of Upper and Lower Egypt under the first pharaoh. The history of ancient Egypt occurred in a series of stable Kingdoms, separated by periods of relative instability known as Intermediate Periods: the Old Kingdom of the Early Bronze Age, the Middle Kingdom of the Middle Bronze Age and the New Kingdom of the Late Bronze Age.
