no3Ljm Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 (edited) Returning to television soon in the Philippines is Japanese anime series “Voltes V,” but this time as a live action remake brought by GMA 7 Network. A teaser of the new series called “Voltes V Legacy” was released on New Year’s Eve. Edited January 15, 2021 by no3Ljm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackconvoy_D01 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Not a fan of Voltes; but love the fact that is is actually happening on television in a LA setting. Hopefully this can be catalyst for other/ similar projects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeszekely Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Is this a sequel or a remake? Wasn't Voltes V the middle part of a trilogy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryoma Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Voltes V would be part of a trilogy called "robot romance trilogy" with the other two chapters being Daimos and Combattler V. Although the three series are not tied together in any way. Anyway it looks more like full CGI rather than live action to me. Once again, i have to say leave the legends rest in peace.

hachi Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 I am interested how they 'remake' this, though I just hope it's not a trainwreck. I also doubt their ability to keep up quality based on this teaser video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To answer it, it becomes a part of our pop culture. The song. The anime. The robot. And what it's promoting. It was a big thing back then when it was shown. And it affects most of us when then-President Marcos banned the broadcasting of the last 5 episodes I believe, due to excessive violence and harmful effects on children. But people's speculations is that the series was banned due to underlying themes of rebellion and revolution. And to be frank, we are being ruled back then by a dictator and he doesn't want people to oppress him. And we finally got the chance of finishing the complete series after he was overthrown during the 1986 People Power Revolution. I guess, to simplify it, it's one of those things that all Filipinos, young and old, can relate to.

electric indigo Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 I think it would work better as an all animated feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My safe guess is probably under the Chogokin line. But take this with a grain of salt because most of the figures displayed in the Tamashii Nations 2023 event says 'For Display Only' on the product name plates.
