| 5 | [[folder:As a whole]] |
| 6 | * AdaptationalBackstoryChange: In the original anime, Hamaguchi forced Ippei to join the Voltes Team by kidnapping him from the United States of America, while also disapproving of him keeping his horse around as he "had no need for it". In ''Legacy'', Mark joins Big Falcon consensually and still has his horse. |
| 7 | * AdaptationalJerkass: While most of the cast got hit by AdaptationalNiceGuy, a few of them had their {{Jerkass}} traits exaggerated. |
| 8 | ** In the anime, Ippei would sometimes act like an insensitive jerk towards his fellow pilots, but was also quick to patch things up with them and for the most part treated them with respect and camaraderie. This version of Ippei (Mark), in contrast, is a massive douchebag who keeps taking out his insecurities on the Armstrong brothers, needlessly antagonizing them for the pettiest reasons and even actively provokes Little John, [[WouldHurtAChild a young boy]], into getting physical with him over something he started. His treatment of Jamie isn't any better, rudely insulting and disrespecting her whenever she tries to offer him advice instead of merely teasing her like he did in the anime. |
| 9 | ** Oscar has Mark and Steve humiliated in front of Bert and forced to do push-ups until they dropped because he heard a rumour they were attracted to his daughter. |
| 10 | ** Bert sells out his brother and Mark to Oscar for steak. Later, Steve and Mark get {{Revenge}} on him by dragging him out of the EDF base, implying an UncertainDoom in store for him. |
| 11 | ** Steve lacks Kenichi's ThouShaltNotKill attitude towards the Boazanians and when Zardoz is laying in front of him, Steve brandishes his sword, saying that to rid the world of evil and avenge his mother, he must kill Zardoz. In comparision, Kenichi had compassion for the Prince in spite of everything and believed he still deserved to be treated humanely in spite of all he's done.[[note]]This could be due to the Philippine-English dub of the anime putting Kenichi through the DubPersonalityChange (see that page for the context) to make him more vengeful - in the original Japanese version, after learning of his Boazanian origins, he states that he is shocked, while the Philippine-English dub changes it to stating that he will avenge General Watson.[[/note]] |
| 12 | ** The whole Voltes team are VitriolicBestBuds frequently argue and bicker with each other to the point of throwing petty insults at each other as far as ''seventy three episodes'' into the series, in comparision to their anime counterparts who were TrueCompanions. |
| 13 | * AdaptationalLocationChange: The original anime was set in Japan. ''Legacy'' changes this to the Philippines. Lampshaded in an episode where Zandra mentions that there's a possibility Baron Hrothgar landed there, while going on a long-winded explanation about the country. |
| 14 | * AdaptationalNameChange: As the characters are named after the 1977 Philippine-English dub of ''Anime/VoltesV'' which changes the name of almost every character, this trope is in full effect. |
| 15 | ** Kenichi Go to '''Steve Armstrong'''. |
| 16 | ** Daijirou Go to '''"Big Bert" Robert Armstrong'''. |
| 17 | ** Hiyoshi Go to '''"Little" Jon Armstrong'''. |
| 18 | ** Megumi Oka to '''Jamie Robinson'''. |
| 19 | ** Ippei Mine to '''Mark Gordon'''. |
| 20 | ** Professor Mitsuyo Go to '''Dr. Mary Ann Collins Armstrong'''. |
| 21 | ** Professor Kentaro Go to '''Dr. Ned Armstrong'''. |
| 22 | ** Professor Hamaguchi to '''Dr. Richard Smith'''. |
| 23 | ** Professor Sakonji to '''Dr. Hook'''. |
| 24 | ** Commander Oka to '''General Oscar Robinson'''. |
| 25 | ** Eiffel to '''Alpha'''. |
| 26 | ** Tako to '''OCTO-1'''. |
| 27 | * AdaptationalNiceGuy: Everyone gets a dose of this. |
| 28 | ** In the original anime, Hamaguchi had Ippei kidnapped in broad daylight and forced him to be the pilot for the Volt Bomber against his will. Hamaguchi also had him separated from [[CoolHorse Eiffel]], his OnlyFriend, for years. When the two were finally reunited, Ippei decided to give Hamaguchi the finger and escape Big Falcon with Eiffel. To convince him to stay, Kenichi ''threatened to shoot Eiffel with his gun''. He chased after Ippei and Eiffel, still threatening them with his gun, and fired a warning shot that almost hit Eiffel. This continued until they were interrupted by the [[MonsterOfTheWeek Beast Fighter that put Eiffel's life in danger]], after which Ippei realized the importance of his position as a Voltes pilot. After Kenichi saved Eiffel, Ippei gained a newfound respect for him and the two became good friends. Here, Mark Gordon was conscripted by the Voltes Team training program and allowed to bring Alpha along, and Dr. Smith was supportive of him as a father figure who tells him not to self-doubt his potential. |
| 29 | ** Throughout ''Voltes V'''s earlier episodes, Kenichi had a habit of bringing out his gun in response to any conflict. He once pulled out the gun on [[CrossesTheLineTwice his own ten year old brother]][[invoked]] because he had the audacity to bring his RobotBuddy with the Voltes Team on a mission. When Hiyoshi cried and begged him to spare Tako, Kenichi gave him the gun and told him to shoot it instead. Fortunately, later episodes had Kenichi go through CharacterDevelopment and become a more empathetic person. Here, Steve doesn't do any of that. |
| 30 | ** Little Jon's anime counterpart, Hiyoshi Goh, was introduced fighting a shark underwater with a knife as part of his training. Here, he instead rides a dolphin to better emphasize his love for the ocean. |
| 31 | ** In the original anime, Mitsuyo thought nothing of allowing Hiyoshi to pilot the Volt Frigate, but in ''Legacy'', her counterpart Mary Anne is vehemently against the idea due to his age. |
| 32 | ** The Voltes Team don't make (the arguably sexist) comments about how Megumi should "play with dolls" and laugh at her while she's injured. |
| 33 | ** In the anime, Professor Sakonji cruelly threw out all of the belongings of Voltes Team outside of the base, even stepping on a medal from Kenichi that fell off from the crate in front of him. On the other hand, Downplayed with Dr. Hook as he had their belongings taken to the base's storage instead where they will be kept there. |
| 34 | * GratuitousEnglish: While the show is in Tagalog, there are many moments where characters will slip into English, or a mixture of Tagalong and English, particularly Steve, Mark and Dr. Hook. |
| 35 | * NamedInTheAdaptation: Dr. Hook's first name is revealed to be [[spoiler: Larry]]. |
| 36 | * RaceLift: Since the original anime was set in Japan, all the Earthling characters were Japanese. ''Legacy'' changes the setting from Japan to the Philippines, which results in tropes like McNinja for Jamie Robinson.[[note]]Her anime counterpart, Megumi, was a HeirToTheDojo of the Koga-Ryu ninja style.[[/note]] |

| 39 | !!Camp Big Falcon |
| 40 | [[folder:In General]] |
| 41 | * HeroAcademy: Camp Big Falcon holds the Voltes Team training program where several selected candidates would undergo various TrainingFromHell tests and only five will make the cut as Voltes V's pilots. However, when the Boazanian invasion happened, only Steve and Big Bert Armstrong, Mark Gordon and Jamie Robinson are present in the base while Eva Sanchez, Ally Chan, Tomas del Rosario and PJ Santiago were on a day off in the mainland after sneaking out. This results in Little Jon filling in the vacant fifth spot in the Voltes Team and General Robinson disqualifying Eva and her fellow candidates from the training program. |
| 42 | * HomeBase: Camp Big Falcon is this and it's set up on a [[IslandBase bird-shaped island]] where the Voltes Team lives there with their own personal rooms and training grounds, and the Volt Machines are stored inside. |
| 43 | * MissionControl: The personnel of Camp Big Falcon at the command center are this, providing intel and overseeing the status of Voltes V in battle with a Beast Fighter in every engagement with Dr. Smith ([[spoiler:before his death and Dr. Hook taking his place]]) and his second in command Chief Kelly leading them. On the other hand, Camp Big Falcon also have a cadre of engineers who repair and maintain the Volt Machines in top condition, and doctors and nurses who ensure the well being of Voltes Team and the base personnel. |
| 44 | * RedShirtArmy: The soldiers of the Earth Defense Force in Camp Big Falcon are this as they get shot down by Boazanian forces when deployed to try to stop them until Voltes V is deployed and formed. |

| 49 | [[caption-width-right:970: Steve Armstrong]] |
| 50 | -->'''Played by''': Miguel Tanfelix, Seth dela Cruz (young) |
| 51 | |
| 52 | The team leader of Voltes Team and piloting the Volt Crewzer, forming the robot's head, and while he is the eldest son of Doctor Mary Ann Armstrong-Collins, he is actually the second son of Doctor Ned Armstrong/Baron Hrothgar . As a child, Steve used to be an adventurous youth, but after the departure of his father, he changed his attitude into that of a responsible big brother for his brothers. He grows up into a motocross champion while being an excellent marksman, but heeding his father's last words, he knows his destiny is to lead his brothers and teammates to protect Earth from the invasion of the Boazanians. |
| 53 | ---- |
| 54 | * AccidentalPublicConfession: [[spoiler: He unwittingly reveals to Judy, a hornless Boazanian spy, who holds Big Bert's cellphone that the Voltes V pilots she was looking for happens to be her boyfriend and his teammates whom she met from the brief tour at Camp Big Falcon as he tries to appeal with Big Bert to come back. Fortunately for him, Judy chose not to tell Zardoz about it and gave out random names from the radio she heard instead.]] Otherwise, it would have been another example of NiceJobBreakingItHero. |
| 55 | * ArmorPiercingQuestion: In Episode 45, Steve asks [[spoiler:the impostor pretending to be]] Ned what their birthdays are, ''and'' makes it clear to Big Bert that he's probing and that he didn't actually forget. [[spoiler:In Episode 46 where they left off, the impostor actually manages to cite them correctly, but not before a lot tension first]]. |
| 56 | * BerserkerTears: He does this when brutally beating up Vaizanger with Voltes V [[spoiler: after Mary Ann sacrificed her life to save him and his teammates]]. |
| 57 | * BreakHisHeartToSaveHim: He does this to [[spoiler: Big Bert who was looking for Judy by telling him that the Boazanians took her away for betraying them which in reality, she went into hiding]]. |
| 58 | * BringIt: He orders Big Bert to shoot him with his gun so that he can learn the "Butterfly Return" technique by catching the bullet with a pair of rocks he picked up. And he succeeded in doing so. |
| 59 | * TheLeader: He is the leader of the Voltes Team. |
| 60 | * MadeOfIron: Due to his [[spoiler: half-Boazanian heritage]], he is able to survive a bullet from Apable who shot him in the middle of final exam, endure several failed attempts of learning the Butterfly Return technique from Big Bert, and woke up with mild annoyance after being hit by a rock to the head from [[spoiler: Judy who did it to lead the pursuing Boazanian soldiers away and go into hiding]]. He also shrugs off bullets from [[spoiler: Draco who took his pistol and shot him, surprising the three horned Boazanian general]]. |
| 61 | * NeverBeHurtAgain: Big Bert accuses Steve of not allowing himself to ever love again ever since [[spoiler:their mother's death]] after doubting [[spoiler:impostor]] Ned even after [[spoiler:he correctly tells them his son's birthdays]]. |
| 62 | * NiceJobBreakingItHero: When Dr. Smith orders Voltes Team to return to Camp Big Falcon that is under attack by Skull Ship, he insists on going after Vaizanger who seemingly disappeared from sight despite the protest and insistence of his brothers, Jamie Robinson and even Mark Gordon. As a result, Vaizanger was able to catch Voltes Team off guard by the chains and trap them in its hold, [[spoiler: which prompted Mary Ann to pilot a jet fighter and save her sons from the Beast Fighter at the cost of her own life.]] |
| 63 | * NoSell: He is unaffected by a [[spoiler: vial of microbes unleashed by Draco, revealing to the enemy general of his Boazanian heritage]]. |
| 64 | * PunchCatch: Is on the receiving end of thus by [[spoiler: Impostor Ned after confronting him with Little John]]. |
| 65 | * RankUp: He is promoted to Lieutenant Commander with a Medal of Honor. |
| 66 | * RedIsHeroic: His suit is colored red, which reflects his position in the Voltes Team as well as being the big brother to both Big Bert and Little Jon. |

| 75 | [[caption-width-right:748: Mark Gordon]] |
| 76 | -->'''Played by''': Radson Flores |
| 77 | |
| 78 | The second-in-command of the Voltes Team, piloting the arms section of the robot, the Volt Bomber. An orphan who grew up alone in America due to his mother dying to protect him from a pack of wolves, and then his father shortly followed. Even so, Mark managed to make a career of a rodeo champion thanks to the companionship of his beloved horse Alpha. Until one day he's suddenly plucked out from his life as a rodeo champion by Camp Big Falcon to serve as one of the defenders of humanity by being a part of the Voltes Team. Mark is a bit bitter and cynical at this sudden change of life, causing him to bicker a lot with the team leader Steve, but nonetheless he still gives his all to defend humanity and grows to respect his new friends. |
| 79 | ---- |
| 80 | * AesopAmnesia: A repeat offender. Almost every time Mark looks like he's learned a valuable lesson in being more understanding and fair towards people, it only takes a few episodes for him to switch back to his self-centered and obnoxious ways, reaching its zenith when his feelings towards Jamie morphs into a toxic sense of entitlement. The lessons finally stick near the end when Mark, having gone through a HeelRealization, at last sorts his act together. |
| 81 | * AllTakeAndNoGive: Mark is a perpetual whiner who ''demands'' for others to understand him and his many psychological issues, yet can't spare the effort to do the same. He is especially guilty of this towards Steve, using emotional manipulation to try and guilt trip Steve into giving up on pursuing his own romantic feelings towards Jamie for Mark's sake, even though Mark has done nothing to earn such favor from Steve, whom he continues to needlessly antagonize from time to time. |
| 82 | * AnguishedDeclarationOfLove: He confesses [[spoiler:to Jamie in Episode 41, but her heartbreak over Steve turning her down earlier in the episode scares her off of moving in on Mark for the time being. She does try to give him a chance later on, but it ultimately doesn't work out because Jamie has never really gotten over Steve, and Mark eventually realizes that he never stood a chance]]. |
| 83 | * AmericansAreCowboys: Even though he is a Filipino, he grew up in America as a rodeo champion with a cowboy theme. |
| 84 | * AnimalCompanion: His horse Alpha is this as they are close and he is thankful that Camp Big Falcon allowed him to bring Alpha along after being formally recruited into the training program. It is complete contrast with his anime counterpart Ippei Mine who was PressGanged and forcefully separated from his horse Eiffel.[[note]]Eiffel is eventually transferred to Camp Big Falcon later on, but that's beyond the point.[[/note]] |
| 85 | * BloodKnight: Eager to get into the fight with the second Beast Fighter in "Skull Ship" and said ''"Now the real fun begins"''. |
| 86 | * BlueIsHeroic: He is a member of Voltes Team and one of defenders of Earth after all. |
| 87 | * TheBully: In the early episodes, Mark was fond of goading Steve, Jon and Bert into fighting him either by cruelly insulting them or insulting their loved ones. Jamie was often forced to step in and make him stop. Even in later episodes, whenever he's angry at Steve, he always resorts to either insulting him again and calling him a terrible leader, or straight up physically assaulting him. |
| 88 | * ConscienceMakesYouGoBack: [[spoiler: Even though he told Dr. Hook that he's done with Voltes Team despite there's another Beast Fighter attack, he appears conflicted when seeing the Volt Machines fly off and then rides back to the base with Alpha and head out in the Volt Bomber.]] |
| 89 | * {{Conscription}}: Unlike his anime counterpart Ippei Mine, he is recruited through this as part of the Voltes Team training program at Camp Big Falcon. |
| 90 | * DramaQueen: A rare male example. Mark has an embarrassing tendency to blow up, throw temper tantrums, and make big issues out of even the most minor of disagreements, thanks to his crippling immaturity and general ineptitude when it comes to social tact. |
| 91 | * EntitledToHaveYou: As Mark's unrequited feelings towards Jamie grows more toxic, he resorts to emotional manipulation to try keeping her and Steve apart, first by using the "pity me" card on Steve by claiming that he needs Jamie more because she's likely one of the few women out there who can stand to be with a socially inept guy like him, and then trying to convince Jamie to give up on Steve because he's "more into Eva" even though Mark knows deep down that's a lie. In the end, it finally sinks in to Mark that all Jamie ever felt for him was pity and concern, and it was his own fault for warping her affections as a sign of romance. |
| 92 | * FedoraOfAsskicking: Unsurprisingly, since he's a cowboy, he has a [[https://hero.fandom.com/wiki/Mark_Gordon_(Voltes_V:_Legacy)?file=Mark_gordon_3.png stereotypical cowboy hat]]. When he tells Jamie they're JustFriends, he stares at her, firmly places it on his head, and struts off. |
| 93 | * FreudianExcuse: Has a very low opinion on mothers in general due to how he (thought he) lost his own, and tries to use this same excuse to keep treating his teammates with petty and unfair contempt. |
| 94 | * FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: As Jamie and Dr. Smith have tried to drill into his head time and time again, Mark's childhood woes and troubled background do not give him free rein to behave like such an obnoxious and disrespectful asshole towards everyone. |
| 95 | * HisOwnWorstEnemy: Mark has plenty of woes regarding his social life: lack of a strong support system, lack of friends, and lack of a love life. This wouldn't be a big problem if not for his thoroughly unpleasant personality which drives people away, and not helped by his half-hearted efforts to change for the better until the last episodes. |
| 96 | * IneffectualLoner: He is this after the loss of his parents and growing up alone which makes him abrasive at hanging out with others and bonding with them. As DramaticIrony however, he refuses Tomas' offer of accompanying him, Eva, Santiago and Ally on a day off far away from Camp Big Falcon and if he did accept, Voltes Team would still lack one more member to pilot the Volt Bomber. |
| 97 | * InsaneTrollLogic: In episode 75, Mark blames Little Jon for being kidnapped by Takeo and Arisa, stating that he should have been more vigilant. This triggers Steve and Bert's [[BigBrotherInstinct Big Brother Instincts]], given that Little Jon [[UsefulNotes/VictimBlaming is a ''child'']]. |
| 98 | * JerkassHasAPoint: He may be rude and insubordinate but even he agrees with Dr. Smith's orders to get back to Camp Big Falcon when it's in danger by the Skull Ship as a bigger priority, pointing this out to Steve who insists on finding Vaizanger who seemingly disappeared from Voltes Team's sight. |
| 99 | * TheLancer: He is this in Voltes Team as he serves as second in command and he attacks with the Ultra Electromagnetic Whip and Tops which contrasts in the anime where Kenichi is the only one who uses them. |
| 100 | * {{Manchild}}: Of the "petulant and bratty" type. Mark's pompous behavior comes across as that of a person with stunted emotional development. He lashes out like a temperamental child and lacks social tact, often failing to treat others with basic human decency. |
| 101 | * MoralityPet: His is Jamie Robinson as she was one of the two people who reached out to him despite his attempts to brush her off[[spoiler: even though he was heartbroken and upset after learning Jamie still has feelings for Steve and claimed him as her boyfriend to get Eva off her back]]. |
| 102 | * NeverBeHurtAgain: After learning that [[spoiler:Jamie still has feelings for Steve and used him, he returns to his aloof self and bluntly tells Jamie that they're simply teammates working professionally from now on]]. |
| 103 | * NeverMyFault: Mark lashes out at Jamie and Steve for failing to resist their feelings for each other, and puts the blame squarely on them for hurting him. Mark fails to acknowledge that it was largely his own fault for desperately and stubbornly pushing himself towards Jamie despite knowing that she was in love with another man and that his chances with her was very slim from the start. He does have a HeelRealization later on, but it takes a ''long'' while for him to do some serious self-reflection. |
| 104 | * NoSocialSkills: Explicitly calls this on himself in Episode 41. |
| 105 | * OohMeAccentsSlipping: Radson Flores doesn't hide his natural Filipino accent at all even though his character is Filipino-American and grew up in the States. |
| 106 | * RageBreakingPoint: [[spoiler: He finally loses his temper after confronting Steve about his feelings for Jamie he confirmed and assaults him despite Steve and Big Bert trying to calm him down.]] |
| 107 | * RankUp: He is promoted to Lieutenant with a Medal of Honor. |
| 108 | * ScrewThisImOuttaHere: [[spoiler: He quits Voltes Team and leaves Camp Big Falcon after finding out that Steve harbored feelings for Jamie the whole time, and Jamie still longs for Steve despite his apparent cold rejection and that she claims him as her boyfriend to spite Steve. [[TenMinuteRetirement Although it didn't last long as he returns to aid them and form Voltes V against Desler]].]] |
| 109 | * WeaponSpecialization: As a cowboy, he has a penchant for whips and gets excited when he learns from Big Bert about the [[LightningLash Ultra Electromagnetic Whip]]. |

| 114 | [[caption-width-right:845: Robert Armstrong]] |
| 115 | -->'''Played by''': Matt Lozano, Steven Canja (young) |
| 116 | |
| 117 | The Voltes Team's defense and hand-to-hand combat expert, piloting the Volt Panzer that forms the robot's body and torso. Despite his big stature, Big Bert is actually the second son of Doctor Mary Ann Armstrong-Collins and the third son of Doctor Ned Armstrong/Baron Hrothgar. Formerly a playful boy, the disappearance of his father changed him, and afterwards, he was sent by his mother to live among monks for a while to learn many forms of martial arts. When he returned, he's already mastered many fighting styles, with his favorite weapon being the naginata and [[MartialArtsStaff bo staff]]. Like his brothers, he further trained himself to eventually engage in the battle for humanity against the Boazanians. |
| 118 | |
| 119 | ---- |
| 120 | * AdaptationalComicRelief: Half of Bert's appearances in the show can be summed up as "he's fat". His weight is a constant source of mockery in almost every episode, to the point him not binge eating was treated as a OOCIsSeriousBusiness in-universe by Steve. Bert's addiction to food is so severe that when the vending machine doesn't give him food, he attempts to beat it with a chair (only for Jamie to stop him, critisize him and buy him the food herself). If there's a scene with Bert and Jamie in it, expect Bert to do something oafish while Jamie plays the role of TheComicallySerious. |
| 121 | * AdaptationalPersonalityChange: Daijirou was a GentleGiant with a HiddenHeartOfGold who loved dogs and piloting. Bert is a SadClown who constantly mocks himself because of his weight, views himself as a failure and a DisappointingOlderSibling to Jon and is willing to humiliate his own brother and teammate if it means getting a bite to eat. |
| 122 | * BigEater: Is shown eating a lot during breakfast in "Destiny to Fullfill" and excusing it as a need for energy before Steve shows the bullet he survived from. [[spoiler:Unlike his enhanced endurance like with Steve, Boazanian heritage may or may not have anything to do with this particular trait]]. He's been shown eating a lot when he goes out, and has even sometimes brought home a lot of takeout food back to base. |
| 123 | * TheBigGuy: He is this in the Voltes Team as he is the biggest man and that he provides weapons through Volt Panzer for Steve and Mark to use. |
| 124 | * CannotKeepASecret: Commander Robinson is easily able to get information out of him by offering him steak. |
| 125 | * DoggedNiceGuy: Bert still yearns for Judalah despite everything, and Steve is forced to BreakHisHeartToSaveHim. |
| 126 | * DramaQueen: When Steve shot him in the leg to [[spoiler: see if he possessed a Boazanian half too]], he went over the top of being injured by his own brother until he calms down to see Steve was right. [[spoiler: When the Armstrong brothers and Zardoz under his "Manuel Nobaz" disguise play with Nerf guns, he makes an exaggerated death pose when pelted by Steve and "Manuel".]] |
| 127 | * {{Expy}}: Of Tanosuke Hata from ''Anime/FutureRobotDaltanious''. Both have a BigEater habit and are the subject of YouAreFat jokes at their expense. The difference is that while Tanosuke falls for any woman he sees, Big Bert only has eyes for Judy. |
| 128 | * InterspeciesRomance: He falls in love with [[spoiler: Judy, the hornless Boazanian spy, and enjoys spending time with her to the point he resigns from the Voltes Team to be with her. Sadly, this ship is sunk after discovering her real reason for wanting to see Camp Big Falcon]]. Although he wants to find Judy, [[spoiler: he is heartbroken after Steve claims that the Boazanians took her away for treason (in reality, Judy went into hiding) and he can never see her again]]. The two of them ultimately reunite with each other before the GrandFinale. |
| 129 | * OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Due to his depression from [[spoiler:realizing that Judy is actually a Boazanian spy]], he actually ''doesn't'' go to breakfast and mopes in bed, which worries Steve when he calls for him. |
| 130 | * RankUp: He is promoted to Lieutenant with a medal of honor. |
| 131 | * SadClown: Appears to be this as he cracks food-related jokes (such as when he calls Namazuka delicious and later declares it will become his catfish salad) [[spoiler: which is his coping mechanism after Judy was gone]]. |
| 132 | * SharedSignatureMove: The "Butterfly Return" technique which he taught his brother Steve how to use it in a crash course training so that Voltes V would have a chance against Gardo. |
| 133 | * StepfordSmiler: Confesses to Jon that he's secretly disappointed in himself and takes a dig at his own body in front of him. Jon reassures him, even though he does join in on the fat-shaming. |
| 134 | * StoutStrength: He may be big, but he is quite physically strong in his own right as he is able to handle several martial artists during his training and later, some thugs who were harrassing Judy which he drove them away with ease. |
| 135 | * TakeThisJobAndShoveIt: [[spoiler:After having enough of Steve's disapproval of him spending more time with Judy than training with the Voltes Team, he lividly declares that he quits and gives his resignation letter to Dr. Smith, firmly standing by his decision. Of course, [[TenMinuteRetirement this doesn't really last as he was just lashing out]].]] |
| 136 | * YouAreFat: Is subjected to this regarding his tendency to eat at any opportunity. It went to the point the touch screen vending machine of Camp Big Falcon ''refused'' to give out food to Big Bert because he already took too much food. |

| 142 | -->'''Played by''': Raphael Landicho |
| 143 | |
| 144 | The young genius and mechanic of the Voltes Team, piloting the Volt Frigate, which forms the legs of Voltes V. The youngest of the Armstrong brothers, to his older brothers, he'd always be the child who never felt the warmth and love of a real father. Despite his hurdles however, he's gifted with a brilliant mind, and keen eyes for gadgetries. Little Jon became part of the team because the other three candidates besides Steve, Mark, Big Bert, and Jamie were off-base against orders when the Boazanians began their attack, and there was no time to wait for them to return, leaving one empty spot that he ends up filling. |
| 145 | |
| 146 | ---- |
| 147 | * AdaptationalCurves: Little Jon has a chubby build (he is like a mini-Big Bert because of it and also both of them sharing similar colors of their uniforms but with different shades) compared to the slim Hiyoshi. |
| 148 | * {{Blackmail}}: Little Jon tries this by letting his mother know that he knows of [[spoiler:his and his brothers' abnormal heritage]], and promises to keep it a secret on exchange for a chance to prove himself. His mother even calls this blackmail, and swiftly shuts him down. |
| 149 | * ChildProdigy: [[spoiler:Apparently, it's part of his Boazanian heritage]]. At the start of Episode 11, when technical issues start cropping up in Voltes V before even leaving the base, he immediately resolves them, to Dr. Smith's amazement. And this secures him a spot in the team, though his mother needed a lot of convincing before she relented. He even created OCTO-1, his robot companion and unofficial sixth Voltes Team member. |
| 150 | * ChildSoldier: He is this the moment he becomes a member of Voltes Team (after convincing his mother and that there's no other choice with the other candidates absent) to oppose the Boazanian invasion and he even sees his first battle to be like that of a video game. |
| 151 | * DramaQueen: Is this just like Big Bert [[spoiler: when he goes over the top of his brother falling to the Nerf guns of Steve and Zardoz under his "Manuel Nobaz" disguise]]. |
| 152 | * FallingIntoTheCockpit: Unlike Hiyoshi in the original, this applies to Little Jon since he only makes it to the team because there are only four candidates in the base to pilot the Volt Machines due to the other candidates deciding to sneak off to the mainland for their day off, thus unable to return in time when the Boazanians attack. |
| 153 | * InvisibilityCloak: |
| 154 | ** Uses a cloaking device on his wrist to sneak into classified room where Voltes V is built and completed inside. |
| 155 | ** Uses this again to escape from Steve and attend the model boat competition in Episode 30. And it can even cover his ''Mikasa'' as well. |
| 156 | ** Uses this again to [[spoiler: try escape from Android Ned Armstrong who revealed its true nature. Unfortunately, the robot imposter was able to use EnemyScan to find him and grab him by the neck, dispelling the invisibility]]. |
| 157 | * JustAKid: Receives this treatment from his mother, much to his frustration. |
| 158 | * NotAGame: Little Jon excitedly states that the Voltes Team's first sortie against the Boazanian invaders will be like a video game, much to his mother's exasperation. |
| 159 | * RankUp: Averted as he is justifiably still too young to be part of the Earth Defense Force, but receives the Medal of Honor as a member of Voltes Team nonetheless. |
| 160 | * TheSmartGuy: He is this in the Voltes Team as he is in charge of engineering to oversee and handle the technical issues of Voltes V. |
| 161 | * SpannerInTheWorks: [[spoiler: Him going AWOL by not fielding when Gamera attacks is detrimental not only to the Voltes Team, but to the Boazanians as well due to not being able to form the Voltes V and get blown up by the bomb Impostor Ned set up in the Volt Frigate]]. |

| 167 | |
| 168 | -->'''Played by''': Ysabel Ortega |
| 169 | |
| 170 | Daughter of General Robinson of the Earth Defense Force, as well as the pilot of Volt Lander, forming the feet of Voltes V. Jamie has trained in the arts of ninjutsu since childhood. She's also learned gentleness from her mother, which tends to translate to trying to mediate for the Voltes Team, especially when Steve is being too hard-ass for his own good and either overly scolds Little Jon or gets into an argument with Mark. Since her father is a commander of the Earth Defense Force and co-designed Voltes V itself, Jamie is also trained to take her place amongst the Voltes Team and to fight against the Boazanians and protect mankind. |
| 171 | |
| 172 | ---- |
| 173 | * ActionGirl: One of the few females recruited by Camp Big Falcon. During a SERE exercise, she, Eva Sanchez, and Ally Chan were able to take down trainers acting as [=OpFor=] troops. |
| 174 | * AdaptationalJerkass: She was willing to use Mark's feelings for her to get one up over Eva. Mark has a breakdown when he finds out Jamie lied. |
| 175 | * AdaptationalJobChange: Megumi wasn't a medic (frankly, none of the Voltes Team were. That was a job left to Big Falcon's staff). However, here, Jamie is responsible for monitoring her teammates' health conditions during battle. |
| 176 | * AdaptationPersonalityChange: |
| 177 | ** Jamie is less confident and assertive than her anime counterpart, Megumi Oka. When Jamie is insulted or bullied, she usually cowers and doesn't stand up for herself (unless it's a case where her buttons are pushed too far, such as Eva trashing her room). Jamie bent the knee to Eva's whims and forcibly apologized, and was only spared from further humiliation [[https://villains.fandom.com/wiki/File:Eva_Sanchez_Voltes_V_Legacy_2l(1).mp4 because Steve intervened]] and told Eva off. When Megumi witnessed Ippei being rude to the Go brothers, she followed him to his room and demanded he tell her why he did that, going as far as to threaten to not give his whip back if he didn't. |
| 178 | ** Jamie caves in to Eva's social pressure when she mocks her for not having a boyfriend; in contrast Megumi didn't care for romance. |
| 179 | ** Jamie vows to destroy all the Boazanians to [[spoiler: avenge her father]], something Megumi never did. |
| 180 | --> [[spoiler: '''Megumi, in Voltes V''': ''"Father, please watch me, I will surely beat that armored beast fighter Daiand with my own hands!"'']] |
| 181 | --> [[spoiler: '''Jamie, in Voltes V: Legacy''': ''"Father, I swear...I promise...I will destroy all the Boazanians!"'']] |
| 182 | * AnguishedDeclarationOfLove: Ends up [[spoiler:confessing to Steve after stopping him from going off alone in Episode 39, much to Mark's dismay while Little John invokes IKnewIt before Big Bert shuts his mouth]]. |
| 183 | * BettyAndVeronica: Jamie is Betty (kind, sweet and has a girl-next-door personality) while Eva is Veronica (haughty, selfish and a complete [[AlphaBitch bitch]]). |
| 184 | * DaddysGirl: She often calls Commander Robinson "daddy" despite being a teen. |
| 185 | * DudeMagnet: Jamie draws in men like honey draws in vespids, so far managing to have Steve, Mark and Tomas pining for her. |
| 186 | * {{Expy}}: Of Sanae Shiratori from ''Anime/FutureRobotDaltanious''. While Sanae is no fighter and an ActualPacifist, she and Jamie are both [[NiceGuy Nice Girls]] with brown hair who try their best to keep Kento and Danji/Steve and Mark from fighting each other respectively. Both share the TheMedic role in Camp Big Falcon and Adalus, and are the MoralityPet to Mark/Danji as well. |
| 187 | * GirlsLoveStuffedAnimals: In the scene where Jamie, Steve and Mark find that Eva trashed the former's room, [[https://hero.fandom.com/wiki/Jamie_Robinson_(Voltes_V:_Legacy)?file=Jamiesroom.jpg a stuffed toy dog]] can be seen on the floor. |
| 188 | * TheHeart: She is this in Voltes Team as she does her best to keep Steve and Mark from fighting each other and bring the team closer together as FireForgedFriends. |
| 189 | * HonorBeforeReason: Was forced in Episode 24 to bend her knees in front of Eva (because she promised to if she was wrong) after inadvertently falsely accusing her of smuggling classified information when it's actually under Dr. Smith's orders. |
| 190 | * ItsAllMyFault: [[spoiler: She feels guilty of using Mark's affections for her to spite Steve who seemingly rejected her and got back with Eva, straining her friendship with Mark who coldly tells her to leave him alone and that they will work as professionals from now on.]] |
| 191 | * JustFriends: She states that she and Steve are this even though EveryoneCanSeeIt in Camp Big Falcon, including her own teammates. Subverted [[spoiler: as she had feelings for Steve the whole time]]. |
| 192 | * TheMedic: Her role in Voltes Team is this as she monitors the health status of her teammates when they pilot Voltes V together. |
| 193 | * {{McNinja}}: Like Megumi Oka, who is a heir to the Kōga-ryū and is Japanese, Jamie's trained in ninjitsu. But she's from the Philippines. |
| 194 | * NonconformistDyedHair: She has some streaks of teal hair dye as a nod to her anime counterpart Megumi Oka. |
| 195 | * ObliviousToLove: She doesn't realize that Steve has feelings for her as she tells him that she hoped he find a better woman in his life after Eva broke up with him. Subverted [[spoiler: when it's later revealed that she's also been secretly in love with him the whole time]]. |
| 196 | * PromotedToLoveInterest: In the original anime, Megumi Oka and Kenichi Go were not romantically involved. |
| 197 | * RankUp: She is promoted to Lieutenant with a Medal of Honor. |
| 198 | * TertiarySexualCharacteristics: In earlier episodes, she had a scrunchie (in homage to Megumi), and in later episodes, [[https://hero.fandom.com/wiki/Jamie_Robinson_(Voltes_V:_Legacy) a white bow]]. |
| 199 | * WoodenKatanasAreEvenBetter: Uses one during training against Big Bert (in place of the metal type Megumi used in the original) when he reveals the Butterfly Return technique. |

| 206 | -->'''Played by''': Dennis Trillo |
| 207 | |
| 208 | The father of the Armstrong brothers. He went missing after warning about the invasion of Boazanians. He's actually a Boazanian himself; Baron Hrothgar, but born hornless, considered an abnormality for his people. Despite so, he's still the Wise Prince of his people, wearing fake horns until that fact was exposed by his jealous and ambitious cousin Zambojil. For that, he's branded a traitor and had to escape to Earth, with the knowledge that Emperor Zambojil will set his sights to Earth. Additionally, he had a wife in Boazan named Rozalia that died in childbirth, and the son he had would be known as Prince Zardoz. |
| 209 | |
| 210 | While on Earth, he's given his new name by his second wife Mary Ann, acquiring her late father's name (Ned) and an inspiring surname (Armstrong, after an incident where he was shot at the arm by an Earth gun, and healed from it quickly as part of his Boazanian physiology). |
| 211 | |
| 212 | ---- |
| 213 | |
| 214 | %% In ''Legacy'', this detail is revealed as early as the second and third episodes as an OriginEpisode. He's given his new name by his to-be-wife, acquiring her late father's name (Ned) and an inspiring surname (Armstrong, after an incident where he was shot at the arm by an Earth gun, and healed from it quickly as part of his Boazanian physiology.) |
| 215 | |
| 216 | * ActionDad: He is this as [[spoiler: he leads his fellow hornless Boazanians to gather weapons and numbers big enough to launch a prison outbreak where they would fight their way through the armored soldiers guarding them and get to the teleporter sending them to the Imperial capital, which they succeeded and escaped although at the great cost as his ship is the only one that made it off Boazan. After returning to his homeworld, he easily takes down Imperial soldiers when he encounters Zardoz, whom he doesn't know the prince was his first son. Although he was forced to escape and jump off the cliff to the ocean when more groups of soldiers arrive to back them up]]. |
| 217 | * AdaptationalBadass: He leads the breakout from the prison camps and successfully escaped compared to his anime counterpart Gohl who got broken free by General Dange. |
| 218 | * AdaptationalDyeJob: Hrothgar has black hair while his anime counterpart La Gohl has purple hair. |
| 219 | * AdaptationalWimp: He's unable to resist Zuhl's mind-reading device like his original counterpart could, thus revealing to Zuhl his entire backstory...and the revelation of both of his identities being connected. It's only from falling unconscious to the device's voltage that Zuhl doesn't get the schematics for Voltes V as well. |
| 220 | * [[FallenPrincess Fallen Prince]]: He is this after [[spoiler: being exposed as a hornless Boazanian and get sent to the prison camps. Baron Zander lampshades this when gleefully rubbing in his face that the prison camps "will be [his] new kingdom" among the hornless Boazanians]]. |
| 221 | * GoingNative: After settling on Earth, he adopts the name of Ned Armstrong from Mary Ann's suggestion and becomes a doctor aiding Camp Big Falcon in building Voltes V and also a father of [[spoiler: half-Boazanian sons: Steve, Big Bert and Little Jon]]. |
| 222 | * HeCleansUpNicely: While on Earth, he gets a haircut and a new change of clothes, which made him very good looking as a respectable doctor as Ned Armstrong. |
| 223 | * HideYourOtherness: He has to wear prosthetic horns in public and it often frustrate him that he was living a lie. He takes them off despite his panicking mother and doctor telling him to put them back [[spoiler: right when Rozalia enters the room and saw her husband being hornless all along. Fortunately for him, she still loves him for who he is and reaffirms it]]. This also bites him when [[spoiler: Zambojil removed his fake horns in front of everyone in court and they, who originally supported his ascension to the throne, turned against him]]. |
| 224 | * LaResistance: [[spoiler: After returning to Boazan and evading Zardoz and his men, he forms a rebellion of hornless Boazanians and leads a guerrilla warfare against the Imperial military in contrast with his anime counterpart Gohl who was captured and re-enslaved after he refused Zambajil's offer to regain his former royal status in exchange for his knowledge to be used for universal conquest upon his return to Boazan.]] |
| 225 | * ManlyFacialHair: He grows this [[spoiler: after returning to Boazan and leading the hornless Boazanian resistance]]. |
| 226 | * MrExposition: He is this when explaining to his wife Mary Ann, General Oscar, Dr. Richard Smith and the world leaders in the Earth's Defense Force meeting about the Beast Fighters and their OneManArmy capabilities. |
| 227 | * NoOneCouldSurviveThat: Jumps off a cliff after being pursued by Prince Zardoz and some guards. They ''do'' toss grenades after him to increase the chances of killing him, but given the source material, it's clear he somehow makes it out alive. [[spoiler: Which it is confirmed as Hrothgar leads the resistance of hornless Boazanians against Zambojil's tyranny]]. |
| 228 | * SarcasmBlind: He does not pick up on one of the world leaders using air quotes in her sarcastic question of how to handle the Beast Fighters which he responded by presenting the blueprints of Voltes V. |
| 229 | * UndeadTaxExemption: Thanks to his friendship and connections with Dr. Smith and General Robinson, he is able to settle on Earth and become part of human society as Dr. Ned Armstrong alongside marrying Dr. Mary Ann and have three [[spoiler: half-Boazanian]] sons as a family, all without any issue. |

| 241 | The Earthling wife of Dr. Ned Armstrong, the mother of the Armstrong brothers. She co-designed Voltes V with her husband, Dr. Smith and General Robinson, and eventually saw her husband leaving and going missing, while warning her that the Boazanians will come to invade. For that, she had to train her children to prepare for the day of reckoning as warned by her husband. |

| 243 | ---- |
| 244 | |
| 245 | * BrainyBrunette: She is this as she has brown hair and one of the co-designers of Voltes V and a remarkable scientist in her own right. |
| 246 | * DeceasedParentsAreTheBest: |
| 247 | ** She has fondness for her late father Ned Collins and she gave that name to her would-be husband Hrothgar when he decides to settle on Earth with a new identity. |
| 248 | ** On the other hand, [[spoiler: she is this to her three sons Steve, Big Bert and Little Jon after she sacrificed herself to save them from Vaizanger]]. |
| 249 | * FirstContact: She's Ned's. |
| 250 | * HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler: Once she sees the Voltes Team, and especially her sons, in big trouble during the showdown with Vaizanger, she decides to ram the fighter jet she is piloting against the Beast Fighter's mouth cannon, knowing all too well she will die in the process. Her last words and thoughts are of her sons.]] |

| 252 | * MamaBear: [[spoiler: She unhesitatingly pilots a jet fighter to attack Vaizanger with a barrage of missiles and then ram into the Beast Fighter's mouth, causing its laser cannon to overload and explode in its face, which broke the chains and freed Voltes V.]] |
| 253 | * OverprotectiveMom: She's rather… overprotective of her sons, especially her youngest, who she often treated as JustAKid in the beginning. This is mainly because she's afraid they would [[spoiler:try to take off to space after their father if they discover their alien heritage.]] |
| 254 | ** She is very reluctant of letting Little Jon become a member of Voltes Team to fight off the Boazanian invasion and eventually relented due to desperation and absence of other cadets. |

| 267 | * AdaptationalAttractiveness: Not that Hamaguchi was ugly, but Smith certainly looks like a SilverFox in ''Legacy'' compared to him.[[note]]For reference, [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hakase_hamaguchi.png this]] is Hamaguchi[[/note]] |
| 268 | * AdaptationalNiceGuy: Not that he is evil but he is a patient, understanding and supportive father figure to Mark Gordon, even going as far to uncovering the truth behind his mother's demise so that the young man gets the closure he needs. This is in contrast with his anime counterpart Professor Hamaguchi who ordered his men to ''forcibly kidnap Ippei Mine against his will'' and made him a member of Voltes Team without giving him a choice (though he did also tell Mark the truth about his mother later on just like Smith does). |
| 269 | * AdaptationalWimp: He is not a martial arts combatant[[spoiler:, and thus was helpless against the fake "Ned Armstrong" who choked him by the neck before stabbing him]], in contrast with his anime counterpart Professor Hamaguchi who ''can'' fight. |

| 294 | * DrillSergeantNasty: He is this to the Voltes Team as he is clearly not impressed of them so far and wanted them to push themselves to their limits [[spoiler: such as when he had Camp Big Falcon's seeker missiles fired at their Volt Machines while telling them to evade the attacks without using weapons, and master the "Spin Fly" technique in their V Formation together]]. |

| 320 | * ParentalFavoritism: Zigzagged. Sometimes he dotes on his daughter Jamie and even cheers for her during a live fire exercise between Volt Machines and Camp Big Falcon's defenses. But he has to put his foot down when Jamie insists on taking care of herself when she was [[spoiler:a target of an assassination scheme by Eva and Apable]], and assigns her a bodyguard. |

| 352 | -->'''Played by''': Elle Villanueva |
| 353 | |
| 354 | Eva was one of the candidates in the Voltes Team training program, but ends up disqualified for breaking Camp Big Falcon's rules and was reassigned to staff member of MissionControl alongside Ally Chan, Tomas del Rosario and PJ Santiago by General Oscar Robinson. |
| 355 | |
| 356 | She is also the former girlfriend of Steve Armstrong. |
| 357 | |
| 358 | ---- |
| 359 | * ActionGirl: She is this as she was one of the cadets in the Voltes Team training program and passed the final exam alongside Ally and Jamie. |
| 360 | * AlphaBitch: She is not a pleasant person as an understatement, and she tends to be full of herself. It gets worse when [[spoiler: she intends to have Jamie killed and take her place in the Voltes Team]]. |
| 361 | ** AcademicAlphaBitch: Eva is noted to be a skilled sniper, impressing everyone with her skills in the first episode. |
| 362 | * AttentionWhore: Eva wants to be part of the Voltes Team not because she wants to save innocent lives, but because it will fuel her ego. |
| 363 | * BettyAndVeronica: Eva is belittling, unkind and a {{Jerkass}}, unlike Jamie who enjoys taking care of people and being empathetic. |
| 364 | * BitchInSheepsClothing: During the entire Takeo and Arisa arc, Eva feigns concern for Jamie's injury, [[spoiler: when it was actually her who shot her]]. |
| 365 | * {{Blackmail}}: She threatens to blow the whistle on [[spoiler: Apable if he doesn't help her get rid of Jamie after catching him spying for a defense contractor.]] |
| 366 | * BreakTheHaughty: Eva suffer this after [[spoiler: she was finally caught and arrested, along with being on the well-deserved receiving end of Dr. Hook's TheReasonYouSuckSpeech.]] |
| 367 | * BrilliantButLazy: Eva is a skilled sniper and manipulative strategist, but her preference to bunk off missions and attention-seeking behaviour is what sabotages her full potential. |
| 368 | * CanonForeigner: She is a ''Legacy''-exclusive character in the series. |
| 369 | * ChangedMyMindKid: She comes back to Camp Big Falcon after previously leaving it and breaking up with Steve in the aftermath of [[spoiler: Dr. Mary Ann's heroic sacrifice and Vaizanger's defeat]]. She almost says this in verbatim when Jamie remarks of her return. However, she did this with ulterior motives. |
| 370 | * EvilIsPetty: She tore up Jamie's room (even graffiting ''WE HATE JAMIE'' on a wall) because she was angry Steve liked her. |
| 371 | * TheFriendNobodyLikes: When practicing saving the hostages with the Voltes team, none of them like the fact that she's assigned to them, and Mark only praises her skills begrudgingly. |
| 372 | * GloryHound: Is this as she enviously watches the award ceremony of the Armstrong brothers, Mark Gordon and Jamie Robinson getting medals and rank promotions (except Little Jon who receives a medal). |
| 373 | * GreenEyedMonster: She doesn't like that Steve and Jamie are close with each other as fellow Voltes Team members, even threatening the latter to stay away from him. [[spoiler: Later on, she trashes Jamie's room after bypassing her lock and schemes of getting rid of her so that she becomes the new Voltes Team member]]. |
| 374 | * HateSink: Insanely self-centered and sociopathic, Eva only exists to cause as much unneeded trouble within Camp Big Falcon as she possibly can, and never displays any kind of redeemable quality. |
| 375 | * IdiotBall: [[spoiler: Eva decides to bury her murder equipment in public, which is how Dr. Hook catches her]]. |
| 376 | * ItsAllAboutMe: Eva only cares for her own self-gratification and quickly lashes out at anything that doesn't go her way; from being disqualified from the training program to Jamie getting romantically involved with Steve. |
| 377 | * {{Jerkass}}: While she acts refined and pleasant on the inside, she's petty, attention-seeking and believes that she's entitled to Steve no matter what. |
| 378 | * KnowWhenToFoldEm: After General Robinson declares retribution to the one who plotted Jamie's death if caught in the act, she keeps her head down and accustoms herself as member of MissionControl.[[note]][[spoiler: With the death of the general, she resumes her schemes now that he is gone]].[[/note]] |
| 379 | * LaserGuidedKarma: [[spoiler:After evading punishment several times for trying to get Jamie out of the picture, she finally gets her comeuppance when Dr. Hook kicks her out of Camp Big Falcon for good in episode 84.]] |
| 380 | * OhCrap: Her face does this when [[spoiler: Apable is caught and arrested prior to being silenced outside the base]] and later when General Robinson declares his intention to make the culprit who tried to kill his daughter pay dearly for it. |
| 381 | * OpportunisticBastard: [[spoiler: However, she jumps at the chance to reinstate herself into the Voltes Team as soon as she picks up word that Big Bert intends to leave Camp Big Falcon]]. |
| 382 | * RedHerring: She is accused of being a spy by Jamie Robinson after seemingly stealing classified blueprints of Camp Big Falcon without authorization. However, it turns out that she [[spoiler:took them under Dr. Smith's orders and she mocks Jamie for the false accusation]]. |
| 383 | * SmugSnake: She does this when things seemingly go her way as intended. Her fellow former candidate Ally Chan lampshades this whenever she sees her smile like that. |
| 384 | * TokenEvilTeammate: Of the Camp Big Falcon crew. Eva is an amoral and sociopathic character who is solely motivated by her own ego and has no real desire to protect the world from the Boazanian invasion out of any moral consciousness. |

| 387 | [[folder:Security Specialist Apable]] |

| 390 | |
| 391 | Apable is a Security Specialist in Camp Big Falcon [[spoiler: and a spy for a defense contractor]]. |
| 392 | |
| 393 | ---- |
| 394 | * AintTooProudToBeg: [[spoiler: Once Eva susses him out, he begs her not to tell on him and even offers her half of his money if she agrees to stay silent. Eva turns down the cash offer and says that she wants something else - for him to kill Jamie Robinson.]] |
| 395 | * AssassinationAttempt: [[spoiler: He attempts to kill Jamie Robinson, the target of Eva's scheme of getting rid of her and replace her in the Voltes Team. Once by sniping, where he missed, and twice with a silence pistol up close, during which she thwarted him, but managed to escape during the base alarm when Negg started attacking the harbor where the model boat competition was taking place. And finally, third, he drugged Jamie to be weakened enough so he can finish the job without her fighting back. Unfortunately, for him, Steve and Mark intervene on time and subdued him.]] |
| 396 | * CanonForeigner: Like Eva, he doesn't have an anime counterpart and is made specifically for this show. |
| 397 | * DramaticIrony: He is assigned as Jamie's bodyguard... [[spoiler: even though he was the one who almost assassinated her by sniper shot but missed.]] |
| 398 | * JerkAss: He is rude and condescending towards Steve in first meeting, which is unbefitting for a professional soldier, and later on, in middle of the final exam, he shoots Steve who fortunately survived due to his [[spoiler: half-Boazanian physiology.]] |
| 399 | * TheMole: [[spoiler: He serves as a spy for a defense contractor, as he claims to a skeptical Eva, within Camp Big Falcon.]] |
| 400 | * PrivateMilitaryContractors: He claims to work for [[spoiler: a defense contractor. The same contractor that apparently wanted him to spy on Camp Big Falcon and Voltes Team. However, it was never brought up again after Eva sniped down Apable and no one seemed to discovered his true allegiance during the investigation of his murder]]. [[note]]WordOfGod reveals that he DidntThinkThisThrough about the enigmatic defense contractor as Apable was meant to be an accessory of Eva's schemes, unintentionally leaving a loose end.[[/note]] |
| 401 | * RedHerringMole: [[spoiler: He is this as he is actually a spy for a defense contractor. He even takes offense of being accused by Eva for working for the Boazanian invaders.]] |
| 402 | * SecretKeeper: He is ordered by General Robinson and Dr. Mary Ann Armstrong to keep quiet regarding the [[spoiler: Boazanian half nature of the Armstrong brothers]] after being called over to their office regarding his shooting incident with Steve. Although, since he was [[spoiler: a spy for a defense contract supplier, he would most likely share that information about it as part of his espionage mission.]] |
| 403 | * SmallRoleBigImpact: His petty act of shooting Steve ends up for the older Armstrong brother to notice he survived thanks to his [[spoiler: Boazanian half]] and suspect that he and his brothers are not exactly normal. |
| 404 | * TakingYouWithMe: He threatens this to [[spoiler: Eva who blackmailed him into helping her assassinate Jamie and if he gets caught, he won't hesitate to bring her down with him.]] Unfortunately, [[spoiler: he never gets to fulfill his promise after he gets sniped down when escorted out of Camp Big Falcon]]. |

| 413 | [[caption-width-right:929:Ally Chan]] |
| 414 | * BetaBitch: Downplayed, but she is Eva's best friend/confidant. Eva often vents to her about her feelings and shamelessly brags about her hatred of Jamie. While Ally doesn't like her behaviour, she never turns in Eva to the proper authorities. |
| 415 | * CanonForeigner: Is a ''Legacy''-original character. |
| 416 | * EveryoneHasStandards: Ally is put off by Eva's {{Yandere}} tendencies towards Steve. She also dislikes that she bullies Jamie. |

| 418 | * ThoseTwoGirls: Ally is almost always seen with Eva. |
| 419 | * TokenMinority: Based on her surname, she's of Chinese descent, in a Filipino-majority cast. |

| 422 | [[folder:Tomas del Rosario]] |
| 423 | -->'''Played by''': Jamir Zabarte |

| 429 | * ApologizesALot: In episode 71, when [[spoiler: Ally and PJ insensetively ask if the rumours of Steve being half-Boazanian are true, Tomas calls them out and apologizes on their behalf.]] |
| 430 | -->[[spoiler: '''Tomas:''' ''"I apologize for my friend's callousness."'']] |
| 431 | * CanonForeigner: Is a ''Legacy''-original character. |
| 432 | * GratuitousEnglish: Compared to his friends, most of his lines are in English rather than Tagalog. |
| 433 | * ShipTease: Tomas and Jamie get rather physical during training and the look on his face implies that he's infatuated with her. However, it's clear that he doesn't have a chance with her, at least not the same way Steve and Mark do. |
| 434 | * TheStoic: Compared to the AlphaBitch Eva, the BetaBitch Ally and the CheerfulChild PJ, Tomas is this between Eva's friend group. However, he does have his moments of defrosting. |
| 435 | * {{Tuckerization}}: He is obviously named after Martin del Rosario, Zardoz's actor. |

| 446 | * CanonForeigner: Is a ''Legacy''-original character. |
| 447 | * CheerfulChild: He's a teenager who's a PerpetualSmiler and friendly to everyone he meets. |
| 448 | * DumbassHasAPoint: Even though he's a dimwit, he expresses concern at Mark barging into Jamie's room because of the obvious violation of privacy. It later turns out that Mark was justified because [[spoiler: Apable was attempting to kill Jamie]]. |
| 449 | * GoodIsDumb: He works for Big Falcon and doesn't have a malicious bone in his body, unlike his friends [[GloryHound Eva]] and [[BetaBitch Ally]]. However, he's also rather dim. |
| 450 | * {{Keet}}: Is he ever. PJ is a wide-eyed and excitable boy, eager to jump on Eva's offer of partying hard and Fanboying hard about the Voltes team in front of Manuel. |
| 451 | * ObliviousToHatred: Smacks Mark on the arm, thinking it's all in good fun. Mark's DeathGlare says otherwise. |
| 452 | * PerpetualSmiler: PJ often grins. |
| 453 | * SmartPeopleWearGlasses: Inverted. PJ wears glasses but he's an idiot who doesn't think twice before opening his mouth. |

| 462 | * CanonForeigner: Is a ''Legacy''-original character. |
| 463 | * {{Expy}}: Of Dr. Mary Ann Collins Armstrong. She acts as a supportive pillar to a member of the Voltes team, has the same hairstyle, and has the word "Ann" in her name. |
| 464 | * NiceGirl: We don't see much of Anna, but when we do, it's of her being encouraging to Jamie. |
| 465 | * SatelliteCharacter: To Jamie. She doesn't have an arc or backstory of her own, and the only thing separating her from the cast of other Camp Big Falcon personnel is that she's Jamie's best friend and often listens to her venting. |
| 466 | * ShipperOnDeck: Anna ships Mark and Jamie, gushing about how Mark cares for her and is sweet. When she realizes that Jamie still holds feelings for Steve, she becomes exasperated. |
| 467 | * ThoseTwoGirls: In a similar vein to Ally with Eva, Anna is Jamie's best friend. Like Ally, most of her dialogue revolves around her best friend so that the audience is informed of what she thinks and how she feels about Steve. |

| 500 | |
| 501 | ---- |
| 502 | * AwesomeButImpractical: The Ultra Electromagnetic Ball is this as it drains out Voltes V's energy after channeling a lot of power through the Laser Sword and even if it did hit the Beast Fighter, the Super Robot won't have enough power left to finish the enemy off. [[spoiler: Fortunately the Mechanical Eagle rectifies the problem by installing a new reactor on Voltes V's back.]] |
| 503 | * {{BFS}}: Possesses the Laser Sword it brings out from its chest and uses it as a FinishingMove to defeat a Beast Fighter. |
| 504 | * {{BFG}}: Has the Voltes Bazooka which the right arm transforms into said weapon and fire it with maximum firepower as shown when briefly pushing back Vaizanger. |

| 506 | * ChestBlaster: Has an Ultra Electromagnetic Beam that it first uses against Negg, powerful enough that Draco urges it to retreat. |
| 507 | * CombiningMecha: Is this as it's composed of five Volt Machines: the Volt Cruiser as [[LeaderFormsTheHead the head]], the Volt Bomber as the arms, the Volt Panzer as the torso, the Volt Frigate as the legs and the Volt Lander as the feet. |
| 508 | * EquipmentUpgrade: [[spoiler: It receives a new ultra electromagnetic reactor from the Mechanical Eagle that docked with the Super Robot, fully energizing the Super Robot to be able to use the Ultra Electromagnetic Ball without drawbacks.]] |

| 510 | * HumongousMecha: Is this and it is as tall as the Beast Fighters it fight and defeat. |

| 515 | * TankGoodness: Unleashes its Tank Mode, with all its usual heavy artillery, to tear through the shield barriers guarding the Boazan Imperial Palace. |
| 516 | * ThreePointLanding: Pulls one off in Episode 34 just before engaging the Negg-Daiga fusion in combat. Big Bert even lampshades it in an amused manner. |
| 517 | * TransformationNameAnnouncement: Naturally with the classical call of '''"VOOLTEEEESSSS FIIIVEEE!!!!!"''' Followed by extending arms to form a "V" symbol of ultra electromagnetic energy and then an AssKickingPose. |
