'Voltes V: Legacy' unveils iconic Butterfly Return Technique

Spoiler warning for those who have not yet watched the latest episode!

"Voltes V: Legacy" has unveiled another iconic moment from the original anime—Voltes V performing the Butterfly Return Technique to defeat Boazanian beast fighter Gardo.

In the latest episode on Wednesday, the Voltes V team was still facing the humanoid Gardo, whose characteristics were based on the samurai.

The beast fighter wielded a katana, which can damage Voltes V's weapons and body.

While Mark Gordon, Jamie Robinson, and Little Jon was distracting Gardo, Steve Armstrong and Big Bert were training the Butterfly Return Technique—a move that can counter Gardo's sword.

When Steve finally succeeded in learning the move, he and Big Bert rejoined the action and volted in with the rest of the team so they can put down Gardo once and for all.

Steve was initially unsure if he can control Voltes V to perform the technique, but the support of his teammates gave him the confidence to execute it, which led to Gardo losing his katana.

The Voltes V team then took the chance to activate their trump card, the Laser Sword. Gardo ran to his weapon, but he could only block their attack and eventually succumbed to Voltes V's finishing move.

Fans on Twitter got hyped as the episode aired, tweeting away their excitement from all the action.

"Guys, are we still breathing? Hahahaha. My ghaadd ang astig!" read one comment.

"Voltes V: Legacy" airs weekdays on GMA Telebabad at 8 p.m. after "24 Oras." It is also livestreamed on the GMA Network YouTube channel and GMANetwork.com/KapusoStream.
