*ArcFatigue: The Steve-Jamie-Mark-Eva love triangle that begins in episode 4 and isn't properly resolved until episode ''83'', dominating most of the show's filler and slice of life episodes. By the time it was over most fans had dropped the show.
*TaintedByThePreview: From the moment ''Legacy'' was announced, Filipinos were upset because they didn't have faith in Reyes and Doctoro to properly adapt it. "My Childhood is gone in New Year's Eve." and "It's Zaido: Pulis Pangkalawakan all over again" began trending on Filipino Facebook and Twitter.

* TheyChangedItNowItSucks:
** A lot of fans are not happy with the portrayal of Zardoz and Zandra as being overly desiring of one another, finding the live action incarnations ''"too horny"'' (no pun intended). In the anime, Zardoz/Heinel and Zandra/Katherine had a mostly unrequited love for one another that they never get to express until the end.
** The turtle-like Beast Fighter Gamera appears far later in the series and is easily dispatched by a few missiles. A lot of fans received this negatively due to both taking away the tag-team of Namazuka[[note]]"Namazungo" in the original anime[[/note]] and Gamera[[note]]"Gamenza" in the original[[/note]] attacking at the same time, and the fact that Gamera never even gets to battle Voltes V in its combined form.
** Some fans are displeased [[spoiler:with Dr. Smith's death being done by the Android Ned as opposed to dying by Heroic Sacrifice during another dual tag-team between Gonguru and Kuragenyara. These two Beast Fighters were omitted from the series, disappointing some fans who liked Kuragenyara for its unusual and unconventional appearance and Gonguru for its comedic, slapstick-like mannerisms.]]
** The Beast Fighters Daiand, Dorion and Giron are omitted from the series, but their story arcs are still referenced: Daiand's mind control is replaced by a ring worn by Jamie, Dorion's plague germs are replaced by a fleet of flying saucers that spray the pathogen in the air, and Giron is replaced by two human-sized Boazanian gladiators Takeo and Arisa. Many were disappointed that they included these at all, and would rather have preferred to see the Beast Fighters themselves than just being referenced.
*** Similarly, the way some story arcs were reused but omitted their episode's Beast Fighter were also a point of issue. Zoldier's second form ends up taking up the subplot of Tobiurago (the flying fish) with Big Bert breaking off from the team and finding Hrothgar in prison at Zuhl's base, and Desler appears a second time with a shield weapon that leads to the Mechanical Eagles assistance, replacing the twin beetle Beast Fighters Saimon and Daimon.
** Marquise Zaki being gender-swapped into a woman received some controversy, with some okay with the change and others finding it unnecessary and making her mock flirtiness to Zardoz add unneeded romantic tension between her and Zandra. Zaki was also involved with the tiger Beast Fighter Gargo, which was omitted in the remake.
** Although they did love the epic visuals of two rivals dueling on the literal Hand of the God of Shugoshin Godor, some Japanese fans have complained about how in episode 90, the desperate Zardoz/Heinel was still using his [[AgonyBeam ring device]] during his duel with Ken'ichi/Steve, making him [[CombatPragmatist less honorable]] at this stage of his character development compared to his [[NobleDemon anime counterpart]].
** A common criticism amongst Japanese commenters was the change of Heinel's hair colour from blonde to brunette, as his blonde look was considered iconic.

*** The change of Baizanga to "Vaizanger" and Suneizaa into "Zunaizer" may also qualify.
** The scene where Jamie laments being stuck in a love triangle between Steve and Mark. It consists of her crying while sad music plays, complete with slowed-down montages of both boys, before going back to her sobbing face. And then there's [[https://hero.fandom.com/wiki/Jamie_Robinson_(Voltes_V:_Legacy)?file=Jamielovetriangle.png this]] cheesy shot.
** Mark forcing Steve into a fistfight because Steve told Jamie he liked her. Intended to be a serious dramatic moment, the whole thing instead becomes unintentional comedy thanks to Mark's ridiculously over-the-top reaction, making him look like a buffoonish {{Manchild}} having a temper tantrum with Steve and Big Bert trying to calm him down.
** General Watson's death is a somber moment, but it's undercut by how, instead of slowly fading as he succumbs to his injuries, suddenly goes limp in such an exaggerated way it can come off as silly.
** The epic sword battle between Zardoz and Steve, which in the anime occurred in a winter tundra (to be fair, the Philippines is a ''tropical'' country where it doesn't snow), happened in a nearby park playground in the live-action version. You could even see the brightly colored playground walls in several shots.

** Eva, a CanonForeigner who appears to have been added to the show for no other reason than to serve as a generic and very unlikable AlphaBitch, contributing nothing of value to the story except more tacked on soap opera drama and the already divisive RomanticPlotTumor. The fact that she never gains even a speck of CharacterDevelopment does not help.
