What happens

Voltron: Fleet of Doom is an American-Japanese television special involving heroes of both Voltron series working together to defeat their sworn enemy, King Zarkon, who aligns with the remnants of Emperor Zeppo's Drule Empire to create a mighty armada called the Fleet of Doom. As both the two anime which Voltron was adapted from (Beast King GoLion and Armored Fleet Dairugger XV) never crossed over in their original forms, Toei was commissioned to create entirely original animation footage to create this movie. The movie was released later on DVD by the company originally responsible for taking the Japanese source material and bringing it to American audiences, World Events Productions (WEP).
