Many Filipinos watched Voltes V on television in the 1980's aired on various television networks in the Philippines such as PTV, ABS-CBN & RPN, it only aired 31 episodes due to reruns. However, the episodes that are not aired on Philippine television were episodes 27-30. Between 1989 & 1999, Voltes V begins airing on IBC & later GMA with a Tagalog dub. As of August 21, 1999 Saturday, all the episodes of Voltes V are dubbed in Tagalog when already aired on GMA every Friday night at 7:30 pm after Lupin the 3rd.

The Tagalog dub of Voltes V started airing on GMA 7 15 years ago!


When I was 4 years old, I watch Voltes V every Friday night at 7:30 pm on GMA 7 since July 2, 1999. Now it's getting even worse, the Voltes V episodes that I remember watching every Friday night on GMA 7 between January & June of that year is Tagalog dubbed. That's 1 month, 7 weeks & 51 days before the Powerhouse rebrand of Cartoon Network although it was still 15 hours on cable that year until July of 2001. I prefer the original English dub of Voltes V than that plane crash of a dub. Like I said in the previous post, it's a total mess for me.

It's YuYu Hakusho, not Ghost Fighter!

When I was 4 years old, I watch Ghost Fighter every weeknight at 7 pm on GMA 7 since March 1, 1999. Between that date & August 6 of that year, all the episodes are dubbed in Tagalog right before Lupin the 3rd stole its' thunder on the Monday, Wednesday & Friday slot while Flame of Recca is on the Tuesday & Thursday slot as of August 22, Sunday of that year. I don't like that I watched that show briefly on IBC 13 when I was 3 years old, it was also dubbed in Tagalog. I should rather watch the English dub of YuYu Hakusho on the internet than watching on GMA 7 as Ghost Fighter, it's a total mess for me.
