Though the storm should blow

Though the wave should rage

Let's row out to the sea
of battle

Let's jump into the maelstrom
of battle

Keep along the same pace

Believe in each other

The party of five

To Voltes Five,
we entrust our lives

Let's fly till the end
of the universe

Everyone's smile is already near

Previously on Voltes V Legacy...



It seems like the enemy
studied Voltes V.

Look at that.

Their technical stature
and battle profile

are almost on par.

How did it do that?

I've been telling you all along

that it's skilled
in being a samurai.

It was able to damage us!

All right, Team.

Let's volt out.

Big Bert, we're being chased
by the beast fighter!

Gardo, hold off on Voltes V
for now.

Execute my initial plan.

Attack their camp!



We've located the enemy!

Judging by its actions,
it looks like it's charging

toward the CBF!

Prepare to engage!

Did you see that? It just
disregarded all our weapons!

It used visual distraction
or optical illusion

to prevent us from focusing!

So what do we do now?

We'll use the Butterfly Return
technique.

When it swings its sword,
it will become a butterfly.

Only samurai experts
can catch it using their palms.

Shields down
to sixty percent power!

Multiple damages
in several areas reported!

The beast was not affected,
Mark.

Remember!

A beast fighter
is attacking the camp!

Hit me!

Steve?

Steve!

Steve!

You cannot defeat Gardo!

Fools!

Surrender to the Boazan Star
Empire.

I promise that
it will happen today.

I will count to ten...

and they will surely fall!

One...

Two...

- Th...
- Enough!

Zuhl...

I am not impressed
by Gardo yet.

Gardo...

prove to me that you
are different

from the beast fighters we sent!

Destroy the planet Earth...

right now!

Steve?

Steve, wake up!

Are you okay?

Let's go.

- No.
- Let's do it one more time.

We have to train, Big Bert.

- Come on! Let's go!
- Let's stop this!

Big Bert, we can't go back
to camp until I learn this!

Come on! Hit me!

I don't want to be the one
to kill you!

So, can we please go back
to camp?

Big Bert!

We can't surrender!

While I may not be an expert
in samurai swords,

I do know how to handle a gun!

I'm not sure if this
will help me

learn your technique!

But I still want to try!

So, you want me to shoot you?

Yes, Big Bert.

I will try to catch the bullet.

No.

I don't want to.
I might end up killing you!

Big Bert, have you forgotten?

We are impervious to bullets,
right?

I need to learn your technique!

Because if not, the entire camp
might be destroyed!

That's why! It feels like
we're just wasting time here...

No!

Shoot me!

Come on!

That's an order!

- I don't want to!
- Big Bert, you have to do it!

Come on!

Bomber missile!

It's hard to bring down!

It's the toughest opponent
we've ever had.

The three of us can't handle
this beast fighter!

Don't lose hope!

There are missing members
of the Voltes V.

Gardo...

take down those three!

But it's strange, Your Highness.

Where are their other two
companions?

Could Gardo have completely
destroyed them?

CBF, Volt Bomber has been hit!

I'm losing control!

These people from planet Earth
are pitiful.

They're just wasting
their weapons!

They can't bring Gardo down.

But I'm getting impatient.

Their shield needs
to be destroyed

so we can infiltrate their camp.

They call it Camp Big Falcon,
Your Highness.

Hurry up, Big Bert!

I need to learn
the technique now!

Or else, many people will die!

We're just wasting time here!

Big Bert,
I'm your Commanding Officer!

You have to follow my order.

Pull the trigger now!

Steve!

Are you okay?

You did the Butterfly Return
technique.

Steve, we can finally defeat
the beast fighter.

If it's bullets, yes,
I can catch them, Big Bert.

But when it comes
to a real sword, I don't know.

Mark, switch to auxiliary
controls now!

Switching to auxiliary controls!

Mark's Volt Bomber is now okay.

But we have
a bigger problem now.

Literally a huge problem.

What are we going to do?

Let's get back into the fight.

The defense weapons
of Camp Big Falcon

are running out.

Just a little more time

and we will be able
to break through it.

I will count for them.

One...

Two...

- Th...
- Zuhl!

Why does it feel like
you don't want me to count?

Defensive maneuvers!

V1, V3, emerging.

Steve and Big Bert are here!

Team, sorry. We're late.

Big Bert's instructions
were a bit difficult for me.

It's okay.

But have you learned
the Butterfly Return technique?

Yes, Jamie.

So let's not prolong this.

Let's V together!

V formation now!

Let's...

volt...

in.

Though the storm should blow

Though the wave should rage

Let's row out to the sea
of battle

Let's jump into the maelstrom
of battle

Gaze into each other's eyes

Believe in each other's warmth

The party of five

On Voltes Five,
we stake everything

Let's do it till
the last of strength

The earth's dawn is already near

Keep along the same pace

Believe in each other

The party of five

Everyone's smile is already near

Voltes Five!

Damn it!

They're complete again.

I told you so, Your Highness.

Gardo will bring Voltes V
to its knees.

Get ready, Team.

It's coming.

Chain knuckles!

Chain knuckles destroyed!

This one's really strong!

But, Steve,
we have a countermove.

The Butterfly Return technique!

Get ready for it!

Big Bert, I don't even know
if I can do that.

Steve, I trust in you.

Okay?

Here it comes!

It's making its major move!

I'm ready for you.

Steve, you did it!

Good job, Steve!

Yeah!

Now it's my turn.

Laser sword!

We've won.

We've won!

We've won!

Voltes V won.

Where are you going?

Yes!

- Yes!
- Amazing, Steve!

I am amazed at you!

You beat the beast fighter using
the Butterfly Return technique!

Awesome!

You are awesome!

You are awesome, Steve!

Big Bert, thank you!

I learned the Butterfly Return
technique from you.

Little Jon, Jamie,
thank you for buying us time!

No problem!

Mark, thank you for leading
the mission!

All right.

Enough with those praises.

Can we go home and rest now?

Come on, let's go home!

Good job, everybody!

Let's bust out home.

You have failed me again, Draco.

My apologies, Your Highness.

Your beast fighter is worthless!

You and your beast fighter
are both...

useless!

Soldiers, take General Draco
to prison...

before I kill him.

Let me go!

I am still a General!

So what if you are a General?

The Prince is ordering
your arrest!

Arrest him!

Fools! You are all fools!

Curse you!

Take him away!

Imprison him!

We are repairing the camp fast.

Because the Boazanians
might attack us again.

That's what I want to discuss
with you.

It was so easy for the aliens
to attack without us knowing.

I received the report from the
space monitoring team, but...

they did not detect the arrival
of the Boazanians.

What are you implying?

It seems like the Boazanians
did not come from outer space.

I have a feeling that they
already have a base here

on Earth.

They're probably hiding
right under our noses.

How am I going to face
our Emperor?

He has run out of patience
with me.

We will explain to him
what happened, Your Highness.

He will not accept
any explanation!

If I cannot do as he ordered,
he will think that I am...

useless.

Maybe there is another way.

Like what?

Tell me!

Your spy.

Perhaps we can use
the information

he will provide
to beat Voltes V.

- Jamie!
- Hey!

How are you?

On the next episode
of Voltes V Legacy.

Stop pointing your finger at me!

I dare you to do that again.

The truth finally came out.

You still like Steve.

Just when I thought
you were concerned

about your reputation.

You are going to see Judy again?

Should we be always working?

Don't be too eager!

I am coping with mama's death
because of her.

And then you will reprimand me?

Big Bert!

He was seen circling
our base several times.

So, I am sure
we are his mission.

I will order my spy to gather
important information.

And then I will decide
how and what

our next beast fighter
will look like.

He relies too much on his spy.

Jamie!

Security override, Room 605!

That's Jamie's room.

Mark!
