Aliens Speaking English: The series gives the Boazanians a Conlang of sorts; "Hrothgar" shows Hrothgar activating a translation device behind his ear when he realizes the Earthling he's talking to can't understand him. And soldiers that were guarding him were surprised that he can speak their language. | |

The way Commander Robinson died is also different in the show, with him dying in Oslak's hands to shield his daughter from harm instead of while riding a helicopter (which, in contrast, is again reminiscent of the airplane-related deaths of Mitsuyo Gou and Prof. Hamaguchi). | |

Voltes V: Legacy / int_14ed6ab7 | comment |
Voltes V's "Finger Missiles" have been changed to "Knuckle Missiles" for obvious reasonsnote (even though the original anime calls them "Gatling Missiles" instead because "Finger Missiles" was a Dub Name Change). In "Ned's Plan", Steve actually used the term "Finger Missiles" instead of "Knuckle Missiles", even though the missiles were still released from Voltes V's knuckles. | |

The Worf Effect: Voltes V subjects this to Dokugaga in its first battle against the Boazanians which gives a wakeup call to Zardoz and his generals that taking over Terra Erthu will not be easy as they thought and they have to create new Beast Fighters every time to try defeat Voltes V. | |

Trillo's role as a key figure in the series also makes up for how GMA Network botched the development of the Filipino sequel-in-spirit of popular Metal Hero series Space Sheriff Shaider, the infamous Zaido: Pulis Pangkalawakan. He also played the lead in Zaido, in fact. | |

They Look Just Like Everyone Else!: Hornless Boazanians are this as they can blend in among humans (so long they are not detected by their high levels of heat which gives them away). Takeo and Arisa uses this to their advantage by dressing up as human civilians to present themselves as "fans" when finding Little Jon and capturing the boy successfully. | |

Underestimating Badassery: When Voltes V confronts the Boazanian invaders, Zardoz and his aides Zandra, Draco and Zuhl do not take it seriously and assumes that Dokugaga will destroy this robot made by Terra Erthu. They regret this after witnessing Voltes V being more than a match for their insectoid Beast Fighter. | |

Real Robot Genre: Ironically, despite being a Super Robot Genre show adaptation, it shows that Voltes V is maintained by Camp Big Falcon's facilities and a large number of support personnel and Mission Control staff just like in the original anime. Especially when it's shown with Voltes V under construction in the middle of Hrothgar's departure from Earth and later Dr. Richard Smith showing the cadets of the Voltes V being completed. | |

Adaptation Expansion | |
Voltes V: Legacy / int_23473ae7 | comment |
Adaptation Expansion: Given that Legacy has more than double the episode count of the original anime (80 versus 40, later extended to 90), some plot points that were merely mentioned or not covered by the anime are added or expanded upon. For instance, in the first five episodes, viewers are treated with the explanation behind the Fantastic Caste System of the Boazanians, as well as the Boazanian language, a Conlang formulated by the show's head writer, Suzette Doctolero, who also previously created the Enchata language for Encantadia. | |

Adaptation Deviation | |
Voltes V: Legacy / int_23a1e2a9 | comment |
Adaptation Deviation: Episode 20 features a different version of Mark's mother's death. Instead of being out in the American wasteland and taking down a pack of wolves with her with explosives, she's unceremoniously killed off by wolves in the woods while gathering herbs for her husband. Dr. Richard Smith said officials found her corpse much later, but by then Mark's father was dead and Mark himself was already off elsewhere. And Smith shows Mark the report as proof that he wasn't lying. Hornless Boazanians are supposed to be just like humans but with more advanced alien technology. The horned aristocracy, meanwhile, are just horned humanoids. Legacy deviates from this original template by making Boazanians Made of Iron supermen capable of deflecting bullets with their bare skin. The change in Boazanian biology was seemingly decided upon by the production team for foreshadowing purposes and to justify Ken'ichi's admittedly reckless decision to catch a bullet with a gun and two stones for the sake of mastering the relatively easier Butterfly Return in the original anime. The Heinel and Katherine dynamic changing from unrequited love till the bitter end to Zardoz and Zandra having an in-series Bedmate Reveal and metafictional "mall dates" is... quite the deviation from the original. The Voltes Team are kept in the medical bay by sedative formulas and tightening straps (which in the anime, Kenichi and Daijirou manage to break free). Only Little John was spared this, not that he could do anything on his own. Until he's convinced by Steve to undo only his straps and leave his teammates behind. It takes Big Bert threatening to sit on top of OCTO-1 that he follows up with the others. As troublesome as Namazungo was in the original anime, he was finished off by a mere double foot stomp. In Legacy, Namazuka actually gets a proper V-Slash from Voltes V. Instead of having the human Sakame/Sakabe/Wilson infiltrate Camp Big Falcon, Legacy instead had Zardoz transform into Manuel Nabuz to basically do the same thing. Gamenza was finished off by the Laser Sword in the original. In Legacy, Gamera was finished off by Volt Bomber and Volt Panzer when they shot its Chest Blaster mid-charge. Dr. Smith still dies, but the way he dies is different in this adaptation. Instead of saving the Voltes Team from a jellyfish and gorilla kaiju by kamikaze escape shuttle attack like with Mary Ann, he instead gets stabbed by an imposter version of Dr. Armstrong, all because he was being Properly Paranoid about him. The way Commander Robinson died is also different in the show, with him dying in Oslak's hands to shield his daughter from harm instead of while riding a helicopter (which, in contrast, is again reminiscent of the airplane-related deaths of Mitsuyo Gou and Prof. Hamaguchi). | |

Child Soldier: Dr. Mary Ann Armstrong is very reluctant to let her youngest son Little Jon be a member of Voltes Team to fight off the Boazanian invasion. Even before that, she doesn't even let him be part of the training program with Steve and Big Bert. But eventually she relented due to the other cadets' absence and there is no other choice. This is in complete contrast with her anime counterpart Professor Mitsuyo Gou who seems to have no problem of her son Hiyoshi Gou undertaking training as a soldier and Voltes Team member despite his young age from the beginning. | |

Voltes V: Legacy / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: Instead of being a ranged support weapon to charge up the Volt Machines, the Ultramarcon was meant to be equipped to Voltes V, but is used as the former anyway due to (in-universe) time constraints. The Ultra Electromagnetic Beast Cannon is this as this consumes too much energy to use when Dr. Hook explains to the Voltes Team that he used the entire reserve power of Camp Big Falcon to power it up and it's still not enough. Hence, the Ultra Electromagnetic Ball is the alternative solution to deal with the Armored Beast Fighter. | |

Undead Tax Exemption: After Going Native, Hrothgar was able to settle on Earth and forge a new life as Dr. Ned Armstrong with his second wife, Dr. Mary Ann and three half-Boazanian sons. It helps that he has made connections with Dr. Richard Smith and General Oscar Robinson in the government to become a member of human society without issue. Judy, the hornless Boazanian spy, was able to infiltrate human society and manage to obtain a house and a job… And yet there were no legal records of her existence on Earth as Sgt. Major Edwards found out in his investigation on behalf of Dr. Smith. | |

Adapted Out: According to the production team, only 16 (18 if Daiga, Negg, and Dainegu are counted separately) of the 41 Beast Fighters from the anime will be adapted for the series. Bonzarus, the Beast Fighter of episode 3 of the original series, is omitted, skipping directly to Gardo of episode 4. Bad Heil, Karakus, Dario and Gondom are also excluded from the show, skipping directly to Negg and Daiga. Gamenza, who was supposed to support Namazungo/Namazuka in another Boazanian attempt at a pincer attack, was absent during the Namazuka episodes. He was then teased in holographic blueprint form in episode 43 before formally debuting later in episode 47 as "Gamera". Kanigan, Gonguru, Kuragenyara, Garuman, Jaguard and Suneizaa are also excluded from the show, skipping directly to Zairus. Suneizaa was later upgraded to Armored Beast Fighter and made a very late surprise appearance. Gokiiru and Tobiurago are also excluded from the show, skipping directly to Zoldier. Octopus Guard, Sazarus, Zemingo, and Garus are also excluded from the show, skipping directly to Okozenia. A whole host of Beast Fighters are skipped as Voltes V instead faces off against Shugoshin Godor. Apart from Beast Fighters, a few minor characters from the original anime are nonexistent in Legacy. These are: Mr. Sakame and his daughter Rumi, the puppy, Nakamura and his parents, and Kaori Adachi. | |

Kick the Dog | |
Voltes V: Legacy / int_34dcfc96 | comment |
Kick the Dog: Zambojil is fond of doing this: He publicly humiliates Hrothgar in front of court by revealing his hornless nature and usurped the throne from him and had him thrown to the prison camps where he visits him and rubs in his face that Rozalia and his mother, Fadsa are dead (which in reality, they were in house arrest). He kills Fadsa for trying to get in his way of taking the recently born Zardoz in his custody after Rozalia passed away from giving birth to her son. When he receive news of no sign of Hrothgar in any planet (until he's found at Terra Erthu), he orders an invasion anyway. Whenever Zardoz reports his failure of defeating Voltes V and conquering Earth, he viciously mocks his nephew and compares him to his disgraced father Hrothgar. | |

Actor Allusion | |
Voltes V: Legacy / int_392372f9 | comment |
Actor Allusion: Dennis Trillo playing Ned Armstrong/Baron Hrothgar in Voltes V: Legacy alludes to how he originally voiced Steve Armstrong in the 2005 Hero TV Tagalog dub of Voltes V known as Voltes V: Evolution. Trillo's role as a key figure in the series also makes up for how GMA Network botched the development of the Filipino sequel-in-spirit of popular Metal Hero series Space Sheriff Shaider, the infamous Zaido: Pulis Pangkalawakan. He also played the lead in Zaido, in fact. Trillo's current role is also an allusion to his recent role as Crisostomo Ibarra/Simoun innote the Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo fanfic and pastiche in the style of A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, Maria Clara at Ibarra. He fulfills yet another role where he attempts to invoke a revolution to free his people from an abusive invading empire, even to the point of having dual identities. During the 2017 re-release of Daimos in the Philippines, Miguel Taneflix voiced Richard Hartford (Kazuya Ryuzaki) while Bianca Umali voiced Erika. 6 years later, he'd also end up on Philippine broadcast TV as Steve Armstrong (Ken'ichi Gou) in Voltes V: Legacy, a remake based off another work from Tadao Nagahama's Robot Romance Trilogy. | |

It helps that he has made connections with Dr. Richard Smith and General Oscar Robinson in the government to become a member of human society without issue. | |

Voltes V: Legacy / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Mary gets mad at Little John after Camp Big Falcon security forces caught him snooping at the Voltes V, because he violated protocol on visiting areas that are restricted in "Destiny to Fulfill". General Oscar Robinson is very upset at Eva Sanchez, Ally Chan, Tomas del Rosario, and PJ Santiago for breaking rules of Camp Big Falcon and sneaking off in the middle of a Boazanian invasion and disqualifies them from the training program, assigning them to be part of Mission Control staff in "Skull Ship". Volting In might be easy when Beast Fighters are your only concern, but doing so while several Boazanian saucers surround you might be risky, as two shots on the Volt Frigate interrupt them twice and force Little Jon to return to base. | |

Blatant Lies: In "Destiny to Fulfill", when Mary Ann Armstrong tries to hide the Armstrong siblings' half-Boazanian traits, such as their bulletproof skin, she refers to them as being the results of a vaccine that "weaponized" them, leading to the siblings' confusion. Later on in the episode, Little John speculates that this is a genetic trait, where the siblings agree. | |

Bittersweet Ending: As with the source material, Zambojil is slain by Zardoz using the dagger given to him by his mother, but the bomb held by the emperor explodes, and Zardoz has to sacrifice himself to save Steve from falling debris. But Zardoz makes peace with his biological Hrothgar and his three Earthling siblings before passing away. Hrothgar is crowned as the new emperor of Boazan, with the planet now free of tyranny and oppression and on good terms with the people of Terra Erthu, but the Voltes Team needed to return to Earth to resume their duty in protecting the planet and the Armstrong siblings will be once again apart from their father. But Little Jon is reassured that the team can return to Boazan at any given time. | |

You Have Failed Me: Zardoz inflicts punishment on Draco and Zuhl by zapping them with an Agony Beam, and Zandra by cutting through her veil after the defeat of Vaizanger by Voltes V's Laser Sword. He does this again, this time at Draco since Gardo was his creation and it failed to counter the Laser Sword of Voltes V. Draco tries to resist by taking on the Boazanian armored soldiers but is neutralized by the lightning blast from Zardoz's finger-sized device before being taken away to suffer his punishment. Zambojil delivers the same treatment towards General Watson after he (purposely) fails to capture the rebel leader (Hrothgar). Derision and a hearty zap from two Boazanian royal guard's spears are how Zambojil delivers this. | |

Judging by Zardoz's screams during his transformation, the transformation process is quite painful. | |

The series also begins with the five Voltes V pilots training and roughly ends with them going back to their former lives before the Boazanian invasion occurs, even though some of them had Relationship Upgrades along the way. | |

Adaptational Attractiveness: In the original anime, Zuhl had blue skin and an elderly, gnarled appearance while Draco had red skin and an orc-like demonic look. In Legacy both have human skin tones and are decidedly less monstrous-looking than their anime counterparts. Zuhl in Legacy also looks younger than Zuhl in Voltes V. It's the same deal with Dr. Smith and Dr. Hook. They both got younger versions of themselves in Legacy. | |

Super Serum: When Steve confronts his mother regarding their unnatural attributes as a result of their Boazanian heritage, Mary Ann tries to excuse this trope being added to their vaccines as the reason, and that Dr. Smith and Dr. Armstrong were complicit in this "project". Steve then asks if there were others given this vaccine, or if it's only them. She replies that they shut down the "project" once it's realized that these powers could be used for selfish gains. It's clear that neither Little John nor Steve believe this, though, and the latter adds to this later on after dinner that their mother and Dr. Smith aren't pharmaceutical scientists at all, but specialists in astrophysics (Mary Ann) and aeronautics and robotics respectively (Dr. Smith and their father). | |

Fantastic Racism | |
Voltes V: Legacy / int_57b80b45 | comment |
Fantastic Racism: On the perspective of Boazan: The hornless Boazanians suffer this under the Fantastic Caste System where the horned Boazanian nobles treat them poorly and sent those who stepped out of line to prison camps for the rest of their lives. When Zu Zambojil exposed Hrothgar as a hornless Boazanian mid-coronation, everyone in court turned against him and eagerly accepted Zambojil as their new emperor. This is averted for Rozalia who still loved Hrothgar even after learning he was hornless all this time, even drawing a dagger to try kill Zambojil in her husband's defense. This also applies for General Watson, the commander who was hunting down the hornless Boazanian rebels in Episode 36. He's actually acquainted with Hrothgar and recognizes him when they meet face to face after so long. He allows Hrothgar to escape and falsely report to Emperor Zambojil of his failure to suppress the rebels at the expense of being zapped and derided by the emperor for it. The horned Boazanians extend this towards the humans of Earth for not only harboring Hrothgar but also being primitive in terms of technology and resembling the hornless Boazanians. On the perspective of humanity: The Voltes Team show contempt at the Boazanians for invading Earth, duping them thrice with three infiltrators Judy, Zardoz in his "Manuel Nabuz" disguise and the Android Ned Armstrong, and the deaths of Dr. Mary Ann and Dr. Smith. They also willingly attacked a small fleet of Boazanian ships manned by Hrothgar and his rebel forces without even trying to contact them and also assume they're reinforcements for the invaders with another fake Ned Armstrong. | |

Only the Chosen May Pilot: Zigzagged. The Voltes Team training program was initiated where several candidates would undergo Training from Hell and only five of them that passed will make the cut as pilots of the Volt Machines. However, when the Boazanians launched their first wave of the invasion, only Steve and Big Bert Armstrongs, Mark Gordon and Jamie Robinson were present when recalled back to Camp Big Falcon while Eva Sanchez, Ally Chan, Tomas del Rosario and PJ Santiago were on a day off in the mainland after breaking the rules to sneak. Due to the absence of other candidates, Little Jon was added in as the fifth member of Voltes Team out of desperation (with convincing a very reluctant Dr. Mary Ann) and that he proved vital in fixing the technical issues affecting the Volt Machines that Dr. Smith had trouble with. At the end of Voltes Team's first victory against the Boazanians, General Robinson chewed out Eva and her fellow candidates for their rule breaking incident before outright declaring the end of the training program, disqualifing and assigning them as Mission Control. | |

Impostor Ned is also an example of this since in the original, he didn't arrive until two episodes after Dr. Hamaguchi's death. Here, he's personally responsible for it, among other things. | |

The Boazanian rebels were ignored by Zuhl who captures Hrothgar's ship with the Skull Ship's tractor beam before leaving compared to his anime counterpart who gleefully shot down their ships, killing numerous rebels. | |

The fourth Beast Fighter Neegu was renamed "Negg" in the adaptation due to the pronunciation of the original coincidentally sounding too much like a certain N-slur. | |

Voltes V: Legacy / int_7bc8c453 | comment |
Origins Episode: "The Origin", "Hrothgar", and "Voltes Team" (episodes 2 to 4) cover Prince Hrothgar's origins, his family, his fall from grace after being exposed by Zambojil of his hornless status, his flight from Boazan, crash landing on Earth and meeting his to-be-wife, and preparing the planet for the impending Boazanian invasion. "Camp Big Falcon" (episode 5) covers the Armstrong family (plus the father's departure back to his home planet) and the formation of the Voltes Team. | |

It's also justified since most Beast Fighters thus far are ground-bound and lack the ranged weaponry to disrupt the sequence. Dokugaga was given no orders to interrupt since at the time the Boazanians didn't think Voltes V was going to be a threat. Vaizanger was briefly knocked down to the ground by the Volt Machines before they combined. Gardo's only purpose is to counter the Laser Sword, and his Eye Beams likely lacked the power to stop them if he tried. Negg was under other orders at the time (to rendezvous with Daiga) and didn't have strong enough weapons anyway. And Bombos was counting on them to combine so it can scan the Volt Machines. | |

What Measure Is a Non-Human? | |
Voltes V: Legacy / int_9c45b5a2 | comment |
Gardo is a robot rather than a giant humanoid Boazanian, which makes his death less gory for a primetime slot on TV according to the MTRCB. In the original anime, the humanoid Gardo is defeated by the "V-Slash" finisher, which visibly shows organic flesh (though thankfully no blood). | |

Voltes V: Legacy / int_9d17b859 | comment |
Made of Iron: A Boazanian (in this continuity) is tougher than they look despite looking like a horned or hornless human as demonstrated when Hrothgar got shot in the arm... Only to get back up with little issue as he casually takes out a bullet that was unable to penetrate his skin, though it did draw blood. And this trait is passed down to his half-human sons, as shown when Apable, a soldier who disliked Steve shot him in the chest for his impudence during the exam. He naturally survived, but now realizes there's no way he or his brothers are ordinary humans. Steve later verifies that this applies for Big Bert as well in episode 8, when he casually shoots him (on the leg) with their mother's service pistol that he secretly swiped earlier in the episode. | |

Voltes V can be considered this to the fleets of Beast Fighters it has defeated throughout the series. Sometimes, it even takes them out two at a time. | |

Secret-Keeper: Only Dr. Mary Ann Collins Armstrong, Dr. Richard Smith, and General Oscar Robinson are aware of the Armstrong siblings' Boazanian heritage (although the siblings have started to suspect there's something beyond human about them). Security Specialist Apable, the soldier who shot Steve during the exam, is sworn to secrecy by Gen. Robinson in regards to the Armstrong's survival of the bullet. Sgt. Major Edwards joins Apable under this umbrella by Dr. Smith when he discovers not only are Judy's bioscans different from normal humans, but Steve and Big Bert's too. Big Bert himself becomes privy to another secret when confronted by Dr. Smith with thermal scans supposedly proving that Judy is not from Earth: he and Mary Ann have met an alien before (read:Hrothgar/Ned), and that he's the reason Camp Big Falcon was hidden, that he warned them of his kind coming to invade Earth. | |

Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy: The Boazanian armored troops are this as they failed to shoot down Hrothgar and his fellow hornless rebels when they fought their way to escape from the prison camps via the main teleporter to the Imperial capital's hangar bays and flee the planet with the stolen spaceships. They do eventually get the ship not holding Hrothgar, though. When Hrothgar returned to Boazan and had to defend himself after being intercepted, the soldiers failed to hit him with their weapons even when they are at close range. | |

Combining Mecha: The titular Voltes V is this, formed from the fusion of the five Volt Machines. The ogre-like Daiga and the serpentine Negg are able to fuse into "Dainegu", though it primarily just consists of Negg coiling around Daiga to form armbands and leg bands with its head arched over Daiga's head. Later, Dainegu transforms into its Roller Form as a proper fusion this time. | |

She seeks to dispose of Jamie and discredit her as well so that she becomes the new pilot of Volt Lander in her place.

Love Triangle: Steve between Eva and Jamie. The former confronts him on this in Episode 17 before deciding to leave, and while he admits to having affections for Jamie, he says he won't act on them. Eva still leaves anyway because she doesn't want to deal with this, but it's made worse for Steve since he had just lost his mother. However, she decides to return in Episode 20 to put more of an effort in her relationship with Steve, and the rivalry begins in earnest, although Jamie and Steve (currently) don't even think there is anything between them. Jamie between Steve and Mark. Episode 35 begins the birth of another of these between Steve and Jamie, this time being Mark. Jamie claims Mark to be her boyfriend, but she only did so after Steve rejects her. Jamie then confesses to a friend that she doesn't really love Mark but Steve, which breaks Mark's heart after he overhears the confession. Jamie ends up breaking up with both after the trauma of losing her father. It's only after the Grand Finale that she decides to give Steve a chance, with them ending the series with the Big Damn Kiss that confirms they're now the Official Couple. | |

Transformation Is a Free Action | |
Voltes V: Legacy / int_b9616deb | comment |
Transformation Is a Free Action: It wouldn't be a Super Robot Genre show adaptation without a classic uninterrupted transformation sequence of the Volt Machines into Voltes V, and it is a glorious sight to behold. It's also justified since most Beast Fighters thus far are ground-bound and lack the ranged weaponry to disrupt the sequence. Dokugaga was given no orders to interrupt since at the time the Boazanians didn't think Voltes V was going to be a threat. Vaizanger was briefly knocked down to the ground by the Volt Machines before they combined. Gardo's only purpose is to counter the Laser Sword, and his Eye Beams likely lacked the power to stop them if he tried. Negg was under other orders at the time (to rendezvous with Daiga) and didn't have strong enough weapons anyway. And Bombos was counting on them to combine so it can scan the Volt Machines. And explicitly defied by Namazuka, who has the power to interrupt the Volt-In sequence and leave them floating mid-air helplessly. Once its weapon is destroyed, it's helpless to stop them from combining. This is defied again by Zairus whose high-speed flight enables it to interrupt the Volt Fighters' Volt-in sequence by ramming straight through them. It's only when they perform the risky "Spin Fly" technique and wreck the Beast Fighter's wings with it, that they are able to combine without interruptions. | |

Zuhl attempts this on Zardoz when he was given the dagger to commit Seppuku after his pleas for forgiveness were rebuffed. Even if he had somehow succeeded, he would have faced the full wrath of Draco and Zandra. Unfortunately for him, Zardoz easily overpower Zuhl which he redirects the dagger to stab the latter in the chest, followed a finishing blow with his personal sword. | |

Taking You with Me: Apable threatens Eva that if he gets caught trying to kill Jamie Robinson for her petty motive of replacing her in the Voltes Team, he will bring her down with him. Unfortunately, he never gets to fulfill his promise as he gets sniped down by Eva personally outside Camp Big Falcon after being caught and arrested. Zuhl attempts this on Zardoz when he was given the dagger to commit Seppuku after his pleas for forgiveness were rebuffed. Even if he had somehow succeeded, he would have faced the full wrath of Draco and Zandra.

However, Zardoz doesn't believe her and points his sword at her. He eventually stands down when she proves her loyalty by staking her life on this claim, but he instead assumes this sabotage plot is under the suggestion of Baron Zander rather than direct orders from Zambojil. | |

Training from Hell | |
Voltes V: Legacy / int_d66cd0e6 | comment |
Training from Hell: The EDF provides training for prospective recruits by putting them through obstacle courses, firearms training, martial arts and a SERE (Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape) exercise. Just like episode 2 of the original animé, in "Skull Ship", a live-fire exercise is conducted between the Voltes Team and the Big Falcon base defenses. And just like canon, before any damaging blows can be exchanged, the Boazanians' second Beast Fighter interrupts the exercise. And just like his counterpart's debut in the original animé, Dr. Hook's first training exercise he conducts involves firing seeker missiles at the Voltes Team, without them using any weapons to destroy them. | |

She eventually confronts him on this at the start of Episode 17, and it sparks an oblivious Love Triangle. Even Mark can see it, as much as Jamie denies it when he asks her about it. Even Zardoz can see it. On the other hand, Zandra's affections for Prince Zardoz is known among her fellow generals Draco and Zuhl, who is a Shipper on Deck, and their Boazanian forces despite her trying to brush it off as Undying Loyalty to the prince. | |

Adaptation Name Change: The Legacy version of Baizanga is named as "Vaizanger". The Legacy version of Neegu is named as "Negg". The Legacy version of Namazungo is named as "Namazuka". The Legacy version of Gamenza finally arrives in episode 47, but this time it's named "Gamera". Yeah. That Gamera.note That might have to do with Daiei's Gamera—who Gamenza was a shout-out to—having its films end up unreleased or obscure in the Philippines, so there's no need to write around trademarks with its name. The Legacy version of Zaizarus is named as "Zairus". The Legacy version of Zoru is named as "Zoldier". The Legacy version of Suneizaa is named "Zunaizer", or alternatively Zunaizer-Hydra. The Legacy version of Shugoshin Godol is named "Godor", Boazan's God of War. | |

His Boazanian physiology allows him to be immune to bullets, which was demonstrated when a Earth Defense Force soldier tried to put him down with a shot to the arm. Hrothgar got out of this unharmed. The same goes with his original Japanese adopted surname, Gou (剛), which means "strong". | |

During Apable's third Assassination Attempt on Jamie, just when he has Steve on the ropes and about to slice his throat open, Mark comes in and snags his wrist with his whip, pulling him away long enough for Steve to escape the grapple and finish the fight. Mark pulls this off again against Imposter Ned to stop him from detonating his bomb on the Volt Frigate thanks to Steve taunting him to buy time. | |

Human Aliens: The Boazanians, both horned and hornless people, in a nutshell. A hornless Boazanian can easily blend in among the people of Earth as shown with Hrothgar who fled to that planet, and a spy working for Zardos who was sent to infiltrate Camp Big Falcon. The hornless Boazanians can be identified by their high level of heat signature as shown when Dr. Smith had Hrothgar be scanned to see the difference between a human and a Boazanian. This allows Dr. Smith to realize that Judy/Judalah, the girl Big Bert dated, is the spy from the Boazanian invaders. | |
