So - again, spoilers - the Voltron fan base has always shipped a few gay ships. Two are super popular within the fandom, and have been acknowledged by the writers/creators, but were never confirmed or anything.

Before season 7 came out, it was announced that Shiro, a character long thought to be gay, was in fact canonically gay, and this season would introduce his fianc.

It was a major announcement, and they used his fianc, Adam, in promotional art, and whatnot. There was a lot of hinting that Adam and Shiros relationship would be a big topic of the season, since Shiro had been gone from earth for years, and had been through a lot and was thought to be dead.

Then, Adam only actually ended up appearing in one episode, for less than three minutes. He gave a generic please dont go talk to Shiro IN A FLASHBACK, and is then never heard from again. No mention that theyre about to get married, or in a relationship at all. They could be just friends. Or even just coworkers. This was taken as an extreme slap in the face by the fandom.

Then, like ten episodes later, its revealed that Adam died trying to protect Earth, and they dont give any screen time to Shiro grieving.

Pretty shitty tbh
