If you've ever spent time on Korean internet, you've probably seen this image more than you've seen your own parents
- The entire scene where Heinel and his aides refuse to believe that humans are intelligent enough to know what love is, while Zuhl tries to convince them otherwise. Even Gekiganger 3 parodied it.
- For obvious reasons, equating Boazania to France.
- 훌륭하다 훌륭하다 지구인놈들Explanation"Excellent, excellent you earthlings!". A line that was said by Heinel in the Korean dub that quickly became memetic in the South Korean internet community and is often used with "excellent" said sarcastically..
- Also often accompanied with this macro◊, which has been posted to death and back on South Korean imageboards.
- Sometimes followed up with this image.
- Hornless! Hornless!ExplanationThis scene from Final Fantasy X, out of context, is linked to how the Horned Boazanians treat the Hornless ones.
- Heinel's handlebars.ExplanationHeinel has a pair of thick horns on his head, leading to many jokes regarding sexual positions
- Megumi makes the feet.ExplanationMegumi, the only girl of the team, forms the "feet" of Voltes V with the Volt Lander. This has led to jokes that Voltes V is misogynistic
- The Godaikin Wars.ExplanationA reference to the infamously bad (and funny) fanfic Voltes V Versus Voltron The Godaikin Wars, which is considered the equivalent to My Immortal in the Voltes V fandom.
- Megumi VS Allura.ExplanationFor some reason, on DeviantArt, it's common for fans to draw Megumi kicking the shit out of Allura. Not just by the person who wrote the above Hate Fic towards Voltron, but by various different artists. These drawings are notorious for how cruddily drawn they are.
- "Who would win? A dictator or a children's mecha anime?"ExplanationIn 1979, Dictator Ferdinand Marcos of the Philippines banned the anime. Given that the anime has themes of revolution, some have suspected that is why he banned it. However, it has since been un-banned, and Marcos has gone down as one of the most reviled dictators of Philippine history. Thus some have joked that Voltes V got the last laugh.
- "Voltes V is Filipino".ExplanationVoltes V being a Movement Mascot against Marcos' regime have led some to joke that the robot originates in the Philippines, not Japan.
- Similarly, making edits of Voltes V standing in front of the Filipino flag.
- Since Voltes V is also popular in Cuba, edits of Voltes V with the Cuban flag are also popular.
- Don't Volt In.ExplanationA common meme format where Kenichi tries to press a button to do something, only to be discouraged by his teammates.
- If Voltes V was made of [X].ExplanationIt's common to make high quality parodies of the Volt-In sequence but substituting the Voltes team with random things like Spongebob characters, Doraemon characters or clothespins.
- The scene where the Boazanians destroy the Twin Towers, for obvious reasons.
- Heinel is a Char Clone.ExplanationSome people unfamiliar to the series state that Heinel is based on Char Aznable, when in real life Heinel came before Char.
- Heinel is Lügner.ExplanationHeinel looks a lot like the villain of the 2023 anime Frieren, and incidentally both are Manipulative Bastards that are also The Dragons. Thus many jokes that they're the same person◊.
- Prince Heinel would have been a Tumblr sexyman.ExplanationA common joke on Twitter that since Heinel is a Pretty Boy who often gets the Draco in Leather Pants treatment from fangirls and has a tendency to repeatedly lose in battle, he would have been massively Woobie-fied by Tumblr, like the The Onceler.
- Genderbent Heinel.ExplanationHeinel looks like a girl (Bishōnen), so some artists play it straight and make him one. Became somewhat of an Ascended Meme in the game Robot Girls Z Online with the introduction of "Princess Heinel"
