List of Voltron: Defender of the Universe episodes (2024)

There are 124 episodes of Voltron: Defender of the Universe. They consist of 72 Lion Force episodes and 52 Vehicle Force episodes. These two sets of episodes share a very loosely-linked continuity, but plot wise have little to do with each other.

The first 52 Lion Force episodes are directly adapted from the Japanese series Beast King Golion. The remainder were new productions commissioned by WEP.

All 52 Vehicle Force episodes are directly adapted from the Japanese series Armored Fleet Dairugger.

Fleet of Doom, the crossover special featuring both teams, is a mix of re-used and commissioned new footage.

Episode numbers, airdates, and titles are as documented by the booklets included in The Voltron Collection DVD box sets unless otherwise indicated.
