The Mysterious Digan Firelight Crystal Energy

Before the creation of Daigan D.A., Dr. Harriman Tempest and Dr. Matsuda, highly noted space explorers and parents of the original Daigan Ladies, stumbled into a forbidden sector within the boundaries of the Terran Perimeter Region. There, a remote unknown planet exists.
This uncharted world is powered by a strange alien energy source looking much like a strange crystal that yields tremendous amount of energy best describe as combinations of all types of energy source found on Earth.
Another noted discovery made by both space explorers are the “sentient” characteristics of the said alien energy.
They named the planet Digan in honor of the marooned ship where they were passengers. Their findings are very controversial especially in those times, and such findings rendered the lives of the two explorers in jeopardy.
Because of this, both galactic scientists lived secluded lives, away from the populace. They managed to “tame” and control the said “sentient” alien energy and extract some power from it. (Note: the said power extracted is equivalent to that used by the most powerful Nuclear Power plant in the present.)
Soon, dynasties of alien invaders try to conquer planet Earth and its galactic territories. The sovereign planets of Earth are at stake and the military could barely cope up with the problem.
In this situation, Both Dr. Tempest and Dr. Matsuda created a powerful super robot they called “Daigan” D.A. And they tried to use the Digan Crystals, as it’s main power source..
But they soon found out that the “sentient” power source has a taste in “women”. And they found out to their dismay, that both their teenaged daughters had become quite “attached” to it.
They have no choice and still some further remodeling, Daigan D.A. rockets out to space, piloted by their darling beautiful daughters. The initial battle was a success…
Not only did the enemy aliens and their fleet was destroyed, but also the war that supposed to take the lives of countless humans, was brought to the very doorsteps of the conquering enemy.
Daigan D.A and its “lady pilots” are a smash hit…
The human race had a new champion looking over their safety.

Eliza Tempest- American "Daigan Lady"

Dr, Eliza Tempest is the only daughter of the renowned space explorer Dr. Harriman Tempest.
Standing five foot seven, slim gorgeous and a natural blonde, she is extremely dedicated and right down bookish, Eliza was a highly trained “ Daigan Lady”
Famous in her piloting the Daigan Digan cybernaut through victories; the death of her father from numerous legal harassments made by the “Moon base Omega” group hardens her still.
She became bitter and aimed to be a cold, calculating Earth Defense Commander to the letter.
This thoroughly out-and-out attitude disturbs her personal and sex life, even her relationship with her fellow Daigan lady friend Keiko, is sometimes on the rocks.
She is not successful in her love life and she blames these thoroughly at the “Moon base Omega group.”
Her bitchiness irritates most of the “Moon base Omega” personnel, but an admirer named Lieutenant Jake Ramrod- a famous Earth defense pilot and a celebrity in his own right, eyes her more of a lovely challenge than a bitchy loveless lady.

But behind her resilient, hawk-like attitudes, Dr. Eliza Tempest had her soft spot. She cares deeply for those victims of alien battles, even though they came from her much-hated “Moon base Omega Group.”

The Dragon Lady's Sex life.

With a devil-may-care attitude, topped with a gorgeously mysterious body, Keiko Matsuda won the admiration of the men of “Moon base Omega.”
It was in her 17 year old where she got the dragon tattoo on her back that she is now famous for.
Keiko was a famous Daigan Lady who piloted the giant Digan Cybernaut to many victories.
She and her friend, Eliza Tempest was a team that made them both, Earth defense celebrities.
Because of this, showers of fan mails littered their personal lives. Unlike the reclusive Eliza, Keiko faced the great multitude in a shinning outlook of a super star. She even became a young fashion model and sexy actress.
Keiko became an instant hit, a hot-blooded male fantasy so to speak. She was everybody’s super hero woman who can save you and make love to you after wards. She had many suitors and a line of admirers. She was this hot Earth defense girl whose head is always in the clouds, and her love life is a ball.
But them, the dark clouds came down and the “Moon base Omega” group sequestered Daigan D.A. and their “Sanctuary base.” But this has not stopped Keiko from being sexy and glamorous…No sir, even in the face of such crisis.

A pejorative group called Camp V5

(Camp V5 is an organization formed by anime enthusiasts who is part of the collective group that petitioned for the return of Voltes V to Philippine Television.As every Filipino knows, Voltes V was shown in the Philippines in the late seventies. But with only around five episodes left to complete the series, then President Marcos banned this and other super robot anime. A lot has been said about the reasons why such a harsh act was done to this day. But after twenty long years, Voltes V came back to the airwaves (this was last 1999), to the delight of both today's younger generation and the Martial Law kids. To all of us, an excellent reason to rush home on a Friday night and watch primetime TV with the family!)

O.K. This is what a popular Voltes V fan group said in their website.
Camp V 5 is perhaps undoubtedly Voltes V’s premier group in the Philippines.
Being a fan myself, I joined in their Yahoo group, hoping to make friends and associate myself with them, after all were all Voltes V fans.
At first, there’s a fellow who announced a sight showing off a so-called Voltes V in 3D (The work is very much “boxey” looking but hey, its Voltes V.)
Then there’s a nice member who offers me some kind of graphic down load that I can use. As a friendly gesture, I told this group about my very own super robot story “Daigan D.A.”
Suddenly, here comes someone who calls himself “meowok”. He reads my message and replied in such a manner: “Turn around so I can hit you on the head!”

As natural as the sun shines in the east, I was irritated by such harsh insult.
Perhaps it’s some kind of jest for this bastard to affront his fellow member as some kind of camaraderie.
So, I stop to think, “Is this Camp V 5 a TRUE haven for Voltes V fans…or was it just a place for rich slobs to hang around and tickle their anuses.”

I’m a Voltes V fan; I know the follies of the characters, the inanity of how the story goes, but I’m an avid fan and I live up to that description!

The last thing I need is a blatant remark from some one who does not even had the guts to show his real name!

I decided to leave this group but before I did, I told meowok “before he can hit me over the head, he should take his stupid Voltes V toys and shove it in his smelly rich guy’s ass or in his mother’s stinking c__t…Son of a f___ing ho___y bitch!”

I left the Yahoo Group, with regrets as to why joining it in the first place.
Sure there are nice members, but “meowok’s insulting remark out weights it all.
After I’ve left, I thought: “You can be a fan of any thing you want,(Voltes V, Voltron, Transformers, Star Wars, Star Trek, Lord of the Rings, Disneys et all.) even without joining any group whose only thing it’s good at is to insult you.”

The Hidden Sanctuary-Daigan D.A.'s battle fortress.

The closure of the first “Daigan Sanctuary” defense fortress by “Moon base Omega”, forced the original “Daigan Ladies” to resolve to continue their Earth Defense Missions in a more covertly strategy.

Dr. Eliza Tempest and Lieut. Keiko Matsuda sneak behind Omega security measures and took back the Daigan cybernaut piece by piece and reassembled it inside a new Daigan base, appositely called “The Hidden Sanctuary”.

Constructed mostly underground to avoid detection,
“The Hidden Sanctuary” has all the sophisticated computerized technology of the sequestered Sanctuary base, It is a space defense fortress, a medical center, training center, research center and a girls’ dormitory in one.

“The Hidden Sanctuary” proudly boasts its utilizing of the most powerful “Energy Strike Shield” ever created; a defense barrier powered by the Digan Light Crystal Beam that when energize, it also releases a formidable barrage of energy beams that first strike at a charging aggressor before it touches the surface of the energy barrier.

“The Hidden Sanctuary” was also provided with Auto-blaster units, powerful enough to bore holes on incoming enemy dreadnaughts. It’s also fitted with shock absorbing anti-gravity components if it receives a “ground zero” blow from an adversary.

But under the pressures from Moon base Omega: The “Hidden Sanctuary” and its crew choose to “hide” and steer clear of any confrontations. That’s why the defense fortress is en suited with powerful hydraulic lifters that automatically “sinks” the whole fortress underground at the first sign of any mecha-units from Moon base Omega.
