The party of five

Previously on Voltes V Legacy...

With courage and bravery,

Voltes V faced the invaders
from Boazania.

Their only goal was to conquer
the entire universe



and subject it to the rule
of the Boazanian Empire.

Twenty years have
passed since then.

And this is where
the story of heroes

who are ready to fight
for freedom begins.

It's a story of the oppressed

fighting against the
greedy and powerful.

Come here!

Come with me.

Kneel!

Who among here infiltrated

and stole from
Duke Samson's residence?

With all due respect,
there are no thieves here.

Shameless fool!
You still want to argue, huh?

Stop it!



Stop hurting the slave!

Excuse me, Minister.

But you shouldn't trust

the words of these
hornless creatures.

Baron Zander!

If you want to stay
in your position,

order your soldiers to stop
their pointless cruelty

toward the slaves!

Minister.

Thank you, Honorable Minister.

Please...

don't kneel.

We expect that you will be
the next Emperor

because you have a good heart,
especially for people like us.

You're so kind, Minister.

- Thank you!
- We thank you!

Your Highness.

I saw Hrothgar humiliate you
in front of everyone.

Zu Zambojil, if you ask me,

you deserve to be
the Emperor's heir

because you are his son
and not your cousin.

You know, you should have
fought for your right.

To avoid being called
a traitor and punished

because I did not follow
my father's wishes

who never once recognized me.

If the Minister of Science
becomes the next Emperor,

I'm sure he will grant freedom
to all the hornless ones!

Zambojil...

that should not happen.

So, Mother, Baron Zander...

help me ruin Hrothgar
in my father's eyes.

So he won't become the leader

of Boazania that we would
have to serve!

It's really impressive...

your new design for spaceships
for the empire,

Minister Hrothgar.

Thank you, Your Highness

for granting my request to show
you my new engine design.

This is called the
ultra-electromagnetic.

For now, this is
the only vehicle

with this kind of technology.

But I'm also ready to share
it with the entire Boazan.

Even to other planets

that need help with technology
to assist them.

Your heart and mind are really
great, Baron Hrothgar.

You're not just an intelligent
Minister of Science,

but also a good person
with a pure heart.

You're making me feel proud

and my heart is swelling with
happiness, Emperor.

I'm serious about
what I'm saying.

That's why I chose you

to succeed me on the
throne of Boazania.

Me, Your Highness?

I don't think I can accept
what you're giving me.

I have made my decision.

You, Baron Hrothgar,

is the next ruler of
the Boazanian Empire.

Maybe you're just making
a hasty decision.

What about your son?
My cousin, Zambojil?

Zambojil will understand
and accept my decision.

It's important that the
throne of Boazania...

falls into the hands of a person
with enough knowledge

and ability.

To develop our planet and also
to help the whole universe.

Thank you, Your Highness.

I won't let you down.

That would be great.

I wish to return to the palace
because I am feeling tired.

Your father died without even
giving what is rightfully ours.

He died, still making you
an illegitimate child.

And me...

he didn't even marry me!

Aren't you worried?

The death of your father means
that your cousin Hrothgar

will be crowned
as his successor!

That won't happen,
my dear mother.

I assure you, before
Hrothgar is crowned,

I will be appointed as the
new emperor, not him!

Because I have discovered
a secret about him...

from their closest friend.

From the healer named Baden.

Why?

What does that healer know?

He is very kind!

To the Boazan nobility!

Now witness the new
beginning of our planet.

Through this crown
bestowed upon you

by the Boazanian Star Empire,
you are to lead Boazan

and all the planets under
its jurisdiction

in the entire universe.

With the power granted to me,

I bestow this to our new
Emperor, Hrothgar.

Stop the coronation!

A traitor has no right
to become an emperor!

Mister Baden!

Why don't you reveal to everyone

the secret of Hrothgar
that you disclosed to me?

Hrothgar...

If I don't speak,

they will arrest and imprison
everyone in my family.

Forgive me.

You are shameless, Zambojil!

You're the traitor!

Traitor?

Me?

Let's see who the traitor is.

Let go of me!

Stupid!

This is proof that Hrothgar

has been deceiving us
for a long time!

The minister whom you all admire

comes from the lineage
of slaves!

Wait!

- Wait!
- Arrest that pretender!

Imprison the slave!

Imprison!

Imprison!

Imprison the slave!

Imprison!

Everybody, just hold on!
Let us explain!

Your child is a deceiver.

All of you!

Your entire family
is full of deceivers!

No.

He deserves to be put among
others who are like him.

The slaves!

Before you imprison him,
punish him first!

No!

- No!
- My son!

You are the traitor of Boazan!

There!

That's where you belong!

On the ground!

Slave!

Arrest him! Imprison him!

- Slave!
- Slave!

- Hrothgar!
- Rosalia!

- Rosalia!

Hrothgar!

Rosalia!

Arrest her!

Arrest her!

- Let go of me!
- Arrest his mother!

And his wife!

They are also greatly at fault

for their collusion
with Hrothgar!

- Let go of me!
- Hrothgar!

Let go of me!

Let go of me!

Let go of me!

Long live Zambojil.

The real deserving
emperor of Boazan.

Long live Emperor Zambojil.

Long live!

Long live!

Long live!

Long live!

Long live!

Long live!

Long live!

Long live!

Long live!

Long live!

Welcome to your new palace,
Your Majesty.

Where did you take
my mother and wife?

Don't bother looking for them.

You won't see them again

because you'll be imprisoned
in this cursed place

for the rest of your life!

You take care of our fake king.

Hey! Get back here.

Come on!

Kneel!

I said kneel!

Show respect!

Zambojil!

Hrothgar...

from now on, you shall address
me as 'Your Majesty.'

Slave.

I pity you, Hrothgar.

I know you are asking

the soldiers what happened
to your mother and to Rosalia.

If you really value
our blood relationship,

you wouldn't deny
where they are!

They were taken to the palace
garden this morning.

Where they will be beheaded

because of their conspiracy
with you.

They're gone, Hrothgar.

You no longer have a family.

They're dead!

Even the baby in your
wife's womb is also dead!

You're so evil!

You're all alone now!

It looks like he really
believed you

when you said that his wife
and mother were dead.

If only he knew...

That's enough!

Why did you make them stop?

Kill me now!

So that my suffering will end!

Why would I deprive myself of
the chance to see you suffer?

I endured for a long time.

I watched as you were cherished
and chosen by my father.

All this is not enough
for the anger I felt.

So you will be imprisoned here
for the rest of your life,

for you to feel that you
are a slave compared to me!

Slaves...

listen.

Victory is still far
from our reach.

Especially since I realized

that I am not doing enough
for Boazania.

I must make my empire bigger.

I must expand it!

So from now on,

you will produce more weapons
and spaceships!

I will find new planets
to invade and possess!

From the planet Brahmin,
Tau Cetis, until Gliese...

and the land of humans
they call planet Earth.

The planets that will not
bow down to my power...

will taste the fierceness and
strength of my leadership!

Long live Emperor Zu Zambojil!

Long live!

- Long live!
- Long live!

Minister...

Thank you.

Perhaps you no longer remember,

but I was one of those you have
helped and saved before.

And like you...

we were also gathered,
caught, and sent here.

We will all get old
and die here together.

We saw your courage to stand up
against Emperor Zambojil!

It gave us hope!

We are planning to escape
and fight the new emperor.

But there are only a few of us

because the slaves were
distributed to different mines.

But we will fight.

You don't stand a chance against
their force and their weapons.

We have weapons, Leader.

These were smuggled
from a group of rebels

by Obgen and Leader Garth.

If you have these...

why haven't you revolted?

Even if we revolt,
where will we go?

We don't know how
to use the Portal.

We are hoping, Chief Minister,
that you know how to use it.

I will not allow it...

because I don't want you
to get in trouble.

So you will just let him
reign ruthlessly?

You will just let him
in his ambition to invade

all other planets
in the universe?

How many more lives, families,

or planets will
the new emperor destroy...

if no one opposes him?

In that case...

we need to leave
using the Portal...

so we can go back to
the capital of Boazan.

The spaceships we will use
to leave Boazania are there.

So that we can help and find
allies in other planets.

On the next episode
of Voltes V Legacy.

You are the hope
of this rebellion.

You must not die so
you better leave us!

What's the news, Baron Zander?

Unfortunately, he escaped.

But don't worry,
he won't survive long.

He will soon die in outer space.

Rozalia...

Mother...

Point me to where I must go.

- This is my childhood friend!

- How are you?
- Jamie!

Steve! How are you?

I'm Mark.

- Mark Gordon.
- Mark.

I will hold on to your promise.

We will wait for you.
