How come I watched Tagalog dubbed anime?


Between the mid 1990s & the late 2000s, Filipino children watched Tagalog dubbed anime on TV & they enjoyed it except for me. Tagalog dubbed anime started with Voltes V on IBC 13 in 1989 & it was short-lived. In the early 1990s, ABS-CBN started airing Tagalog dubbed anime & it will continue the tradition for years to come. Just before August 22, 1999 Sunday at 8 am PHT, Tagalog dubbed anime shows were aired on TV networks such as ABC, GMA & IBC. In the 2000s, most Tagalog dubbed anime shows were aired as well like on RPN, Studio 23 & Q. In 1998, I watched Ghost Fighter on IBC before it aired on GMA a year after. I watched Mojacko on GMA between 1998 & late 1999 & I don't like when it's not English dubbed. I don't even like Dragon Ball Z on GMA ether because it uses the word Kamehame-wave instead of Kamehameha. After Ghost Fighter disappears on GMA on August 6, 1999 Friday, it comes back in the mid 2000s. In 2006, I watched a cable channel called Hero & it's a channel that airs Tagalog dubbed anime shows. Between October 30, 2009 Friday & today, I don't like Tagalog dubbed anime in my life. I guess ABC still airs Sailor Moon as of August 22, 1999 Sunday at 8 am PHT. I'd rather skip it for now.

It's Throwback Thursday!

Back in 1996, Filipino kids watched Ghost Fighter every Wednesday night at 6:30 pm on IBC 13 where it still ran until September 15, 1998. In the US however, the show is still called YuYu Hakusho & it only released 2 movies on VHS either English dubbed or subtitled as of between September 15, 1998 Wednesday at 4 am Pacific & August 21, 1999 Saturday at 5 pm Pacific. I've watched the English dubbed of YuYu Hakusho on Animax back in 2007 on TV when I was in Quezon City, Philippines & I enjoyed it really. It's even better than Ghost Fighter because it's still YuYu Hakusho.

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.

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.
