<Ul> <Li> Keith ( Akira Kogane ) ( voiced by Neil Ross in the ' 80s and ' 90s series and Giles Panton in the 2011 series ) : Commanding officer of the Voltron Force , who pilots the Black Lion that forms the bulk and head of Voltron . Keith wears a red uniform in the original series and a black uniform in Voltron : The Third Dimension . Keith is a quiet individual who spends much of his time pondering his decisions , thinking up new strategies , and simply being a leader . He also has a hobby of reading books and can often be found doing so either in the pilot 's lounge , or in his room . He seemingly cherishes Princess Allura and is thought to be somewhat protective of her ; his worst fear , according to Voltron : The Third Dimension , was that she would be forced to marry the evil Prince Lotor . In Voltron Force , Keith is revealed to be of Arusian descent . This fact , coupled with his affection for Allura and her resignation from the Force to be the Queen of Arus , leads Keith to step down to serve Arus as its King . He passes the Black Lion pilot position to Daniel , though he takes this back in the season finale because Daniel was n't really ready . </Li> </Ul>
