Production

In January 2020, GMA Network hired Riot Inc. for the post-production of the series. Toei Company supervised the series, whom later gave an approval through a commendation letter.[122]

Mark A. Reyes was hired as the director of the television series, and has been attached for eight years, from the pitching and approval of the series.[123] Noel Layon Flores served as the lead visual designer.[124] Suzette Doctolero was attached as the writer.[1]

Production sets had been made for Camp Big Falcon, the Boazanian Skull Ship and the Boazanian Earth underground base. The costumes took a year to produce, undergoing several revisions. Reyes said that they had to establish a "good marriage within the classic Voltes V look and one that's acceptable nowadays" when it comes to the series' visuals, adding that they deviate from using spandex for the costumes.[125]

Production was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.[125] Principal photography commenced on May 28, 2021.[123] It was halted in August 2021 due to the enhanced community quarantine in National Capital Region.[126] Filming concluded on April 1, 2023.[127]

Critical response

The media outlet IGN Southeast Asia described Voltes V: Legacy as "the Philippine answer to Power Rangers and Voltron."[128]

Release

A theatrical version Voltes V: Legacy – The Cinematic Experience, premiered on April 18, 2023, in SM North EDSA, Quezon City.[129] A limited theatrical release was held at SM Cinemas the following day.[130] The 107 minute film covers content from the first 15 episodes of the television series.[131][132] The series made its television debut on GMA Network on May 8, 2023.[133]
