I love Voltes V!
Chōdenji Mashīn Borutesu Faibu), popularly known as simply Voltes V (pronounced as "Voltez Five") is a Japanese anime television series produced by Toei Company and animated by Nippon Sunrise (now known as Bandai Namco Filmworks and formerly known as Soeisha). It aired on TV Asahi and its affiliates from June 4 1977 to March 25 1978.
Voltes V grew into a cultural phenomenon in the Philippines since its airing in the country in 1978.
My sister, my Lola and I had joined my parents in Chicago in August 1976.
My Lola had returned to the Philippines in November 1977; unfortunately she passed away so young days before her 64th birthday in July 23, 1978.
It was the first time for all of us to vacation in the Philippines in 1978. Balikbayan!
Voltes V had just started airing in the Philippines then, and watching the show was/is one of my favorites memories from August 1978.
My childhood friends and I would play taguan or patintero in the street in the front of our house in SSS Village in Marikina -- until dinner time or until Voltes V started to air.
Good times! Thanks for tagging me Glenn.
