I think Telesuccess planned of dubbing Combattler V in English but they decided to dub it in Tagalog instead..I still hope they'll dub that anime in English in the near future!
There are three types of Voltes 5 in Tagalog dubs,the one's aired in 1989-1990 on IBC 13,the 1999 Tagalog dubs made for GMA 7 and the ones with celebrity dubbers on Hero TV around 2006.

I don't remember the IBC 13 Tagalog dub at all, just reruns of the English dub. But it's not like I was keeping notes on all of this. There does seem to a tendency for multiple Tagalog dubs of the same show, for some reason. |

To each their own I guess. I personally thought that Shin vs. Neo was the weakest of the OVAs and less accessible than New, which doesn't require any previous knowledge of Getter lore. IMHO, the quality goes Armageddon > New >>> Shin vs. Neo. |

This was a fun column. I really enjoy robot shows but I'm choosy. Go Nagai became a favorite of mine back in the mid 80's. When I first saw Tranzor-Z in Chicago. During my early college years I had the honor of seeing some of these robot shows. I do remember 'Machine Robo' during my HS years. Never watched the show just remember the OPs. Then there were all those wannabe "just getting into anime so they felt they knew enough to convince those ignorant they they knew everything and have them repeating the same stuff", as that Machine Robo inspired the Go Bots or that Go Bots was the US version of Machine Robo. WTH????
Yep that whole put a robot into a robot to get a even bigger robot I thought that quite cool. I always wonder why couldn't you ever see a fight with the lesser. Of course it always seemed that things were always so bad you had to move to the next suit. Another time I've seen this method used was in 'Dangaioh'. The villain Giabold was a cyborg who hated his humaness, who fought Dangaioh in a suit and later fit into a giant robot. The future learns from the past, look at GaoGaigar. He's human cyborg, who combines with Galeon to create an armored suit, which combines with vehicles, which makes a giant robot. I wonder if Transformers Masterforce fits into this alley too. The hero wears an armored suit, which pilots the OP robot, which trailer gets more armor and even more armor making it almost a giant OP robot. I can't get into Tatsunoko robots. I'm talking about the weird ones, yet they're considered robot shows. There was a guy who's YT channel I used to frequent he uploaded all these robot OP/ED, categorized by year, from 1970 to 1990. I was surprised to see the Time Boken series in there, but yet they're robot shows. Koichi Mashimo worked on robot shows? Man the place you've been and where you end up. |

Well here in Puerto Rico, we might not have been as lucky as most of Latin America in robot anime but we fared better than the US, the Super Robot torch was lit as it was in Larin America with Mazinger Z, we had access to "El Festival de los Robots" that showcased episodes of Kotetsu Jeeg (El Vengador), Daiku Maryu Gaiking (El Gladiador) and Magno Robo Gakken (Super Magnetron) alongside Starzinger, there was Also Armored Trooper Dorvack, Toshi Gordian, Aku Dai-Sakusen Srungle known here as Gorilla Force and Laserion (know here as El Super Laser[]) I think the last Super Robot show show here was a few episodes of Groiser X. before the FCC cracked down on animated programming in the 90's and TV stations decided to fill Weekday Mornings and afternoons and weekend mornings with infomercials and talk shows .
As a genfre it might have lost flavor with the current annime fandom, but they are stories full of high adventure where the battle between good and evil is presented with high stakes and it was a whole lot of fun compared with the moe/eroge adaptation series that populate the airwaves now in Japan, heck I'm getting more Robot action out of Super Sentai these days..., heck in Spain they are releasing Shin Mazinger on DVD/Blu Ray |
