By the end of January, Netflix fans will have a brand-new season of Voltron: Legendary Defender to binge. Last month, fans learned the animated series would make a comeback with Season 2 on January 20th, and its trailer left fans thrilled. The footage showed the Voltron Force touch base with the new season’s main baddie Emperor Zarkon, and the dangerous clip had fans worried over fan-favorite characters like Shiro and Keith. Now, a brand-new clip from the new season of Voltron has been released, and it is far more lighthearted than any footage fans have seen to date.
