The robot's name is a portmanteau of Combine, Combat and Battle, and the V is intended both as an abbreviation for "victory" and in reference to the five component machines that form the robot, as well as its five pilots. The V is proununced as the letter V, whereas in the follow-up series, Voltes V, it is prounounced "five". Tosho Daimos (Commonly known as Daimos) Tosho Daimos (闘将ダイモス, Brave Leader (or Fighting King) Daimos) is a televised anime series produced by Nihon Sunrise. Daimos is the third installment of Tadao Nagahama’s Romantic Trilogy, following Chōdenji Robo Combattler V and Chōdenji Machine Voltes V. It ran from 1 April 1978 to 27 January 1979 and consisted of 44 episodes. A movie with the pivotal episodes strung together titled Starbirds was released in the US by the same company that released Tranzor Z. The name Daimos is derived from Deimos, one of the two moons of Mars. Apart from Japan, the show also aired in the Philippines, Malaysia and in Italy. In the early 1980s there was a VHS release in France, but only the first seven episodes were available. In 1990s the entire series was shown in Poland. After the destruction of their homeworld, the survivors of the planet Brahm head towards Earth with the goal of negotiating the purchase of land to emigrate to. Unfortunately, during the negotiations, the Brahmin’s leader, Leon, is assassinated by his second in command, Olban, and the delegation from Earth is framed for the murder. In the ensuing chaos, Doctor Isamu Ryūzaki of the Earth delegation is shot and killed. Shortly after the disastrous end of the talks, the Brahmins (called “Valerians” in Starbirds) begin a campaign of terror against Earth, lead by Leon’s son, Admiral Richter, who deploys a variety of “Mecha Soldiers” against the planet’s defenses. The only thing standing between the Earthlings and annihilation is the transforming, karate-using super robot, Daimos and its pilot, Kazuya Ryūzaki (Richard Hartford in the Filipino English dubbed version). But that changes when he meets and falls in love with a mysterious girl named Erika, who turns out to be Richter’s sister. Over the course of their struggles to reunite, Richard and Erika each learn that the other’s people are not all evil...and that their own people are not all good. Super Electromagnetic Machine Voltes V or in short Voltes V Super Electromagnetic Machine Voltes V (超電磁マシーン ボルテスＶ, Choudenji Machine Borutesu Faibu?) is a Japanese anime television series that was first aired on TV Asahi starting April 6, 1977. It was created by Tadao Nagahama as the second part of his Robot Romance Trilogy , of the Super Robot genre. Conceived as a second part/remake of its predecessor Combattler V , was released in Italy, Spain, and The Philippines, dubbed in their respective languages. Apart from the epic Voltes V, Nagahama also created other classic Super Robot anime such as Combattler V and Daimos. Voltes V is the second series in what is called Nagahama's Romantic Trilogy, with Combattler V being the first, and Tōshō Daimos being the third. Being the second of the Robot Romance Trilogy, Voltes V story narrates the heroic exploits of the young robot pilots known as The Voltes Team and their trials against alien invaders from planet Boazan. Armed with Super Electromagnetic Machine Voltes V, the five pilots drive back the invaders one Beast Fighter at a time. The series illustrates human sentimentality and common values, with underlying themes such as the love of family, equality, selfless sacrifice, team work, and patriotism. Voltes V also revolutionized anime by introducing enemy characters with considerable depth. Voltes V's Prince Hainel (Prince Zardoz in the English dub, Sirius in the Italian one) for example, sets a standard[citation needed] on anime villains with a back story and personality in an era when most anime villains were thoughtless formulaic characters with little beyond their menacing appearance and sinister laughter. |
