For Radson, who plays Mark Gordon, being in costume was the pinch that reassured him that what was happening to him wasn’t just in his head. “It was surreal. I couldn’t believe I was part of the cast. The suit looked really cool—ang angas. And it made me feel like, “This is it. It’s really happening,” he said.“They wanted to make them perfect. When I tried on the final version, I got goosebumps. I felt more confident. I could easily picture myself as Jamie Robinson,” Ysabel said.
“The production team did a good job of letting us see what we were supposed to see in the scenes. I would say that only 5 to 10 percent of the set used chroma key. They really did everything they could to make everything feel believable for us. Our seats really move, so we could really feel it ,” Ysabel said.“My inner nerd was happy seeing the set.
The adaptation’s plot will be faithful to the original. But since the new version will run for about 80 episodes—40 more than the anime’s—there was more room to flesh out character backgrounds and subplots, head writer Suzette Doctolero said.The show is produced by GMA in partnership with Toei Company Ltd. and Telesuccess Productions Inc.
“It’s an old anime, but it has always been in people’s hearts. The theme songs are sung by people at karaoke, used in political jingles and for commercials. It has a certain magic that has truly allowed the show to endure for more than four decades,” said Reyes.Its popularity among Filipinos is perhaps rooted in the fact that “Voltes V’’ is practically a soap opera but in anime form.
