Description
Daijiro Gou is the second eldest son of Professor Kentaro Goh, a Boazanian prince originally named Gohl, and his human wife Mitsuyo Goh. Born on November 18, he is 17 years old during the series events. He possesses a tall, strong build with black hair and eyes, typically clad in a dark green and white uniform featuring a yellow "V" emblem on the chest and a black belt with a golden buckle.
As a child, Daijiro displayed a playful, carefree personality. This demeanor shifted to cynicism and withdrawal after his father's unexplained disappearance. Concerned by this change, his mother arranged martial arts training abroad under a master. There, he mastered multiple hand-to-hand combat styles and meditation forms, specializing in the bō staff. This training instilled discipline and tactical acumen, shaping his role as the team's primary defense strategist. He maintains a protective instinct, especially toward his younger brother Hiyoshi, and shows a soft spot for animals, adopting a stray puppy during a mission.
Daijiro's background is intertwined with the conflict against the Boazanian Empire. Unaware his father was a hornless Boazanian prince exiled to Earth, he initially believed Professor Goh abandoned them. Years later, when Boazan invades Earth, Mitsuyo Goh and Professor Hamaguchi recruit Daijiro, his brothers Kenichi and Hiyoshi, Ippei Mine, and Megumi Oka to pilot Voltes V. As the Volt Panzer operator forming the robot's chest and body, he focuses on defensive maneuvers and shield deployment against Boazanian beast fighters. His tactical expertise proves critical for protecting Voltes V and mitigating combat damage.
A pivotal development occurs when Daijiro and his brothers discover their half-Boazanian heritage and learn their father was imprisoned after returning to Boazan to negotiate peace. This revelation sparks internal conflict, forcing Daijiro to reconcile his human upbringing with his alien ancestry. Despite this crisis, he remains steadfast in defending Earth and supporting his siblings. His loyalty extends to teammates, often mediating tensions between Kenichi and Ippei and demonstrating unwavering commitment during high-stakes missions. His mother's sacrifice to save Voltes V further hardens his resolve to protect his remaining family and fulfill their father's vision of liberation.
Throughout the conflict, Daijiro joins the Voltes Team's journey to Boazan to overthrow Emperor Zambajil's oppressive regime. His martial prowess and defensive strategies prove vital in battles, including the final assault freeing Boazan's enslaved hornless population. Following victory, he continues serving as a pilot, committed to safeguarding Earth alongside his teammates.
