I kind of like him, as much as I like any of the characters (which is really mild, at best). I like that he's older (or at least seemed to be, I think the producers said he's 21?).
I really, really don't like Allura. At all. I know the show is from Japan, so this isn't the most logical thing to say, but: The whole show edges on too anime-y for me, and she's not just over that line, but she's glittery, twirling, magical girl transforming over it. (Edit: Though I have to say, her father works for me. Works for me a whole lot. I'm watching the "evil AI" episode, which is easily my favorite so far. Not just for the father, but for the whole Shiro PTSDing subplot.)
I guess I'm getting old, because my "So cool!" reaction to the lions keeps warring with "But... but... but... lion robots just don't really make sense...".
I wish I liked the show more, I keep hoping it will hook me, but on ep 8 of 12, the time for that to happen is growing short.
