Line 16: * [[Award Bait Song]]: The end theme "Looking For Father".'' [[Captain Obvious\|And we wonder who is the "father" they are searching for]]''. * [[Badass Normal]]: The titular Voltes V compared to other [[Super Robot\|Super Robots]] like [[GoLion]]/Voltron, Gigantor, and others. [[Fridge Logic\|That is, if you don't count the fact that Voltes can apparently summon lightning for the Choudenji Ball regardless of the weather...]] * [[Banned in China\|Banned in the Philippines]]: Under Ferdinand Marcos, citing [[Moral Guardians\|its brutal violence]]. Critics of his regime think otherwise, claiming the ban was a response to the show's focus on Boazan's totalitarianism, of which Marcos is frequently accused of. The show proved popular enough that it resumed airing since 1999, and has been in many more re-dubs and airings ever since. * [[Barehanded Blade Block]]: The Butterfly Returns * [[Battle Tops]]: The Ultraelectromagnetic Top attack. Line 27 ⟶ 26: * [[Catch Phrase]]: "LETS... VOLT... IN!!!" * [[Character Development]]: The characters are somewhat more fleshed-out than in the standard [[Super Robot]] show. * [[Chest Blaster]]: Voltes Laser and Choudenji Wave. Further down is the Grand Fire. ([[Double Entendre\|No, not THAT further down.]]) * [[Combining Mecha]] * [[Compilation Movie]]: Select episodes from the series were edited and released in the States under the title ''Voltus V''. A similar compilation movie was also released in Cuba where it is fondly remembered to this day. In the Philippines, the last five episodes of the anime were edited and released theatrically in 1999 as ''Voltes V The Movie: The Liberation'', back when GMA Network was hyping up the anime's so-called "second coming" in the country during the late 90s. These were the very same episodes which remained unaired until that time due to Ferdinand Marcos's ban on the show ostensibly due to its violent content. * [[Darker and Edgier]]: Compared to ''[[Combattler V]]'', but not to [[Yoshiyuki Tomino\|extremes otherwise prevalent during the Super Robot Boom of the 70s]]. ** Interestingly enough, Tomino ''himself'' was involved in making this anime. Foreshadowing, perhaps? Line 94 ⟶ 96: [[Category:{{PAGENAME}}]] [[Category:Robot Romance Trilogy]] [[Category:Science Fiction Anime and Manga]]
