voltes v is my first ever favorite anime too! though i loved voltron as well (the one with the lions, not the one where the robot’s made up of an infinite amount of little spaceships).

I was actually too young to completely understand bioman’s plots or subplots and all i can remember is that the bad guy with the long silver hair turned out to be red 1’s dad. O_O!!

when i read this —>

Erica: RICHAAAARRRRDDDDD!!!
Richard: ERICAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

<— i actually had the full flashback of Erica slowly being lifted away and richard diagonally below her with arms outstretched and all *snickers*

you just gotta love these shows.

Omigod. Is that true?

>>Since they’re already bringing back the series on TV, but with a new cast of seiyuus.

Wow, that’s news to me. Err, do you mean in Japan or in RP?

>>They’re showing the first season of Dragon Ball on Animax.

I actually enjoyed DB’s first run, even the second. It just got boring after the battles went on forever.

>>Kids’ shows back then are just that. Kids’ shows. Now? Pantsu & loli reigned the screen.

Well, I wouldn’t say that it really catered to kids back then since they have a developed storyline and angst. But now it has become more fanservice-y. Not that it’s necesarrily a bad thing….

>>In the eyes of kids there are no cheesy cartoons =p

So true. It’s so much better to watch any show without any hint of cynicism.

>>xD Sentai shows lmao the thing about my post is its old shows but not THAT old dating back to the sentai era…its like the period in between haha

LOL. Sentai = Awesome. Bioman was my introduction to this interesting genre. I guess that’s why I was ready to appreciate Power Rangers later in the early 90’s. Hee. Oh, and there’s nothing more satisfying than using it as a basis for role-playing games. In my mind, I will forever be Yellow 4. ;p

Borutesu faibu ni…

Kids’ shows back then are just that. Kids’ shows. Now? Pantsu & loli reigned the screen. (Okay, not exactly kids’ shows, but I’m talking in general, anyway ^^; There weren’t much of those back then, were there? Urusei Yatsura doesn’t count xD;;) I don’t know whether to laugh or scream.

“Let’s Volt in!”

Oh, nostalgia.

Haha, nostalgia indeed. Since they’re already bringing back the series on TV, but with a new cast of seiyuus.

…except for the death of Bioman’s Yellow 4. That ticked me off, since she was my favorite.

Yellow 4 was one of my faves too then. Second to Pink 5.

So she died then? ‘Cause I never seen that on TV, since I didn’t marathoned it.

Oh shit. *plants a shrine* :(

Hehe. I used to have that [Voltes V] track as my ringing tone. I still love that theme.

Haha, me too. I have the ED theme, by the way. :)

Hey, do you know that the girl from Shaider went to the adult industry? Weird, huh?

Too bad I don’t have the VHS tape with it anymore nor can I find like any of the english dub on youtube :(
