As promised, I fully archived the P.L.O's Lectori Salutem J BL journal. This took a long while to edit as the pages required very specific attention. To view the archives, please visit the links below as always! Lots of Gundam, Mazinger and Daimos!

Despite not having an international home for Voltes V Legacy, the Filipino GMA-7 Network has announced an adaptation of Tosho Daimos as their next super robot anime to adapt for live-action. Funny enough, the joke with many Filipinos is that Daimos already hits a lot of the cliches of a traditional Filipino soap opera, while Legacy modified its elements to better fit that framework.

It also bares mentioning that Voltron is still in pre-production at Amazon Studios because the Voltron fandom was the absolute worst at Dreamworks, the Gundam movie is coming roughly never, Transformers refuses to move beyond the Michael Bay framework, but the Filipinos have successfully made a Voltes V adaptation and seem to have Daimos targeted for 2026. Hollywood has once again lost the plot.

omg you have the robot romance + daltanious art and infobook! can you upload pictures please? im from a third world country and i cant buy it on amazon. once again thank youuuuu! what did you like about the book?

Hi Anon, thank you for the Ask!

The book—called "Tadao Nagahama's Romantic Robot Animation" (長滇忠夫ロマンロボットアニメの世界)—is mostly a digest guide with series and episode summaries, monster-of-the-week guide, staff interviews, summary of other materials (such as manga), and some illustrations (sketches, mechanical designs, and settei) from each of the series with some description.

Much larger images (including some of the same images in this book) can be found in the Roman albums (art books) that were released for each of the series. Unfortunately, the Daltanious section uses scenes from the animation for most of its content rather than illustrations.

I like the monster guides the most. They are a concise way to look at all of the monsters at one time. It is interesting to see the progression of designs across the different series.

Below is an example of what one of the spreads from the Tōshō Daimos section looks like. This one is about some of the vehicles that appear in the show and which episodes they are in. The Triper 75S is in the lower right, and it's such a fun design. That would be a fun model kit to have.

I don't have a lot of energy/focus for scanning art books, but if there is something specific you are looking for, then let me know and maybe I can find it.

Tsunayoshi dreams so big — but I just know Tsunayoshi was a fan of Dino Mech and Tosho Daimos.

Well, Bex Taylor Klaus wants to do a tell all on Voltron Legendary Defender. Thought she or another soul would want to save this for a milestone like the show being removed from Netflix (Apparently it’s leaving the platform forever December 14, 2024) or Amazon Studios/MGM casting their live-action Voltron movie. I guess there’s the fact that the Filipino GMA network managed to release a live-action Voltes V and announce a live action Tosho Daimos before a live action Voltron movie because of how badly Legendary Defender hurt the brand.

Anyway, considering Bex was ALLEGEDLY one of the behind the scenes voices pushing for representation and the altering of scenes in Season 8, this oughta be quite the crapstorm. Let’s see if she can explain why the giant robot show that should have been the easiest thing to market got a fandom that was so brutally insane and creatives that hated giant robots.
