Synopsis

Long ago, a powerful sentient robot known as GoLion, abused his great powers by attacking and killing creatures known as Deathblack Beastmen, boasting that no one could defeat him. For his arrogance, The Goddess of the Universe punished GoLion by separating him into 5 different lion robots. In the year 1999, a group of 5 young men returned to Earth after a space voyage, only to find it ravaged by nuclear war. After encountering the alien race known as the Galra, the 5 youths end up on the planet Altea and learn that the 5 lion robots that GoLion was split into are in hibernation in various parts of Altea. Somehow, they must reunite the lions and form GoLion, the only hope for the human race.

Dotbankey A lot of fun.
ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
SG-B Hyakuju O Go-Lion is the original anime series that Lion Voltron was dubbed from. In Voltron, there were quite a few changes from Golion though, such as violent scenes removed, character names changed, different voice actors, etc.Golion is certainly quite violent at times, but it's an enjoyable series, even if I couldn't understand what was being said, lol.Finding Golion episodes are hard to find, so if you do come across some, don't hesitate to pick it up.
Arus-2 For any viewer who is lucky to see an episode from Hyaku Ju Oh Golion will know that when Golion was picked up to be dubbed as Voltron The Tv Series, it was up against a tough time where violence on Tv was at the forefront of concern for what was shown to children.Golion is the story of 5 teenagers who return to Earth after World War III has destroyed much of it. Distraught at seeing everything in ruins, the teenagers are captured by the Galra Empire and soon taken to Planet Galra to be used as slaves and to entertain the citizens in twisted tournaments. The teenagers manage to escape and make it to Planet Altea where the Princess Fahra (or Farla) gives them the secret to forming the greatest protector of the far universe, Golion.Since most fans are familiar with Voltron, Golion is somewhat a darker and more violent version of the edited form Americans have seen. But most of the scenes edited out, did not detract from what the series taught - that teamwork and perseverance will succeed in the end.
Satoshi-5 The original series of Lion Force Voltron is much better, because Lion Force Voltron is hacked to pieces, scenes censored, violence toned-down, altered dialogue, and worst of all bad voice acting! Beast King Go-lion is way better than its dub for the following reasons: people get killed; people die, and best of all Go-lion is dark and more realistic than that silly dub Voltron.Forget about Voltron, and be a REAL anime fan. Watch the "real thing" instead. Watch Beast King Go-lion!
