A Visual History of Mecha - Episode 5

[@kurtmorales7644]

I can confirm that voltes v was that loved here in the Philippines when I was a kid growing voltes v mas one of my first animes that I watched.

[@tdugong]

kurt morales seen it in Malaysia, not as big as Voltron here but yeah, it was quite enjoyable.

[@kennethmana3103]

Don't forget about Daimos too they are always together if voltes v got a re-run Daimos follows

[@Sketchy_2]

I dont cry as often when I watch tv shows or anime but fuck Zambot 3's ending was a tearjerker

[@barrybend7189]

Yatterman has the villains that are the precursor to team rocket from Pokemon.

[@ProfessorOtakuD2]

Said so in my 'Greatest Characters' vid about them. don't know if that's live yet.

[@odd-ov4gf]

Gotta love kill em' all tomino

[@aq809]

thanks for this series

[@sim.frischh9781]

That honk at 11:42 was just cruel XD

[@cansnake]

One of the most interesting parts of this series is seeing how the robot designs slowly get closer to the "Gundam style"

[@arx3516]

True, just look at Voltes.

[@FlickeredCodex]

ARX 351 no, Voltes V came first before Gundam. Gundam used the same color scheme as Combatler, Voltes V, Daitarn 3, and Zambot 3 because the colors were bright and attracted children. Watch the documentary on The making of Gundam.

My mom loves voltes 5 and also my friends dad knows it and when he was watching gundam his dad tough it was voltes 5

[@wdkaye]

Wow, haven't heard of most of these, some of them sound really cool

[@simonhassnilsson7009]

dinosaur war aizenbrog was a weird one...but undeniably awesome at the same time, first became aware of it after watching the american compilation "movie" Attack of the supper monsters, that was a trip...

[@SeekerLancer]

Even back then Tomino was oscillating between depressing and silly.

[@TheGoodOne1998]

Fun fact, Daitetsujin 17 got a homage in Kamen Rider Fourze the Movie: Everyone, Space is Here! in the form of XVII and that wasn't the only Ishinomori series homage in that film.

[@Kamodomon]

Love this series! So goooood!

[@DarthBobCat]

I do love those hats on the Yatterman heroes.

[@4u57inc0v3110]

Aww... I had a Daitarn III robot toy. I don't know where my mom got it, but holy shit that thing was pretty awesome.

[@ElectronicControl3R]

Your choice in mechas and music is GLOOURRISS CAPTAIN

[@KarlM29]

good video keep up the good work

[@n_ex13]

Well fun fact the anime adaptation of captain future became really really popular in Germany

[@ProfessorOtakuD2]

From what I saw it was pretty slick. We got so shafted in the US.

[@robertakizuki9806]

Yehey I love voltez v

[@Kyroro97]

Daitarn was just the beginning, In italy we created in 2012 the mighty GESU' 3

[@sonwig5186]

Zanzanzan zanzan zanzanzan zanzan ZAMBOT 3! ZAMBOT 3! ZAMBOT 3! ZAMBOT 3 GO!

[@crutchead]

Not such a very excellent presentation of Japanimation history, but the presenter nailed it to the point stating "What VOLTRON is for America - VOLTES V is for the Philippines,and I think the U.S. got the short end of the stick on that."

[@YukitoOnline]

Not just Voltes V we also got Daimos! We even got the movie of Voltes V too!

[@kennethmana3103]

@@YukitoOnline and after 40 years voltes v will get a live action remake here in the Philippines and is co-produced by Toei Animation

[@YukitoOnline]

@@kennethmana3103 Ay naku para di ko alam yung lumang balita na yun. Masyadong late ka magreply (isang taon) tapos yung reply mo parang di pinoy kausap mo. Halatang pinoy ako since sinabi ko yung Daimos at yung movie ng Voltes V.

[@uhhh_adam]

YATTAMAN!

[@mazingerz5417]

I dont like yattaman

[@ddiesel1836]

the US defnitely got the short end of the stick. VOLTRON was also televised in the Philippines but did not have the same culutral impact to begin with a robot made up of 5 robot lions is just ridiculous!

[@thomasffrench3639]

Well at least it makes it more accessible nowadays. Imagine if it was like Macross
