It is the year 1995. Earth has been conquered by an alien army from the star cluster known as the Akron. The cities of Earth have been destroyed, and the remaining survivors live in harsh shanty towns and villages. Kento, a war orphan, hides within a cave along with his companions in order to escape some bandits.In the cave, they find the secret base of Doctor Earl, who was an inhabitant of the planet Helios, a planet conquered by the Akron. Doctor Earl then fled to Earth, bringing with him the greatest achievement in Helian technology: the super robot Daltanius, whose power is increased when combined with the intelligent lion robot, Beralios. Doctor Earl entrusts the fight for Earth to Kenta, who happens to be a descendant from the long disappeared Helian royal line.

Concept

Tadao Nagahama had a heavy influence in the artistic style and direction of the show. The style resembles that of Voltes V and Combattler V.

The main attraction super robot, Daltanius, was formed with 3 components: the main robot, Atlaus; the space ship, Gunper; and the mechanical lion, Beralios, which was recovered after the first battle with Akron. The robot is named after the main hero of the Three Musketeers, D'Artagnan. [ Clements, Jonathan & McCarthy, Helen. [2006] (2006). The Anime Encyclopedia: Revised & Expanded Edition. Berkeley, CA: Stone Bridge Press. ISBN 978-1-933330-10-5] Daltanius is 56 meters tall and weighs 678 tons. Daltanius was the first combining super robot to have an animal component, as well as the first to have a lion's head chest; the lion's head would be incorporated into several Brave Series robots, most notably GaoGaiGar.Fact|date=December 2007

"Daltanius" and "Voltron"

The Japanese "Mirai Robo Daltanius" series was originally planned to be adapted by World Events Productions as one act of the "" series in the United States and abroad. Unlike the ill-fated "Light Speed Electric God Albegas" conversion (which never even materialized, due to the lower ratings of the "Dairugger XV" "Voltron" run), the pilot episode of "Daltanius" was actually translated and dubbed into English, and adapted to fit the "Voltron" mythos. This pilot episode was test-marketed by World Events in locales such as Hawaii (and, reportedly, San Francisco), but was never again re-broadcast after these airings.

One factor which led to the scrapping of these plans was the intention to have the three-act "Voltron" trilogy (similar to "Robotech"'s three-act adapted structure) consist of "Daltanius" (whose robot featured a lion-component on its chest), "Dairugger XV" (the "Vehicle Voltron"), and "Albegas" ("Gladiator Voltron"). When requesting master tapes from Toei Animation for translation purposes, the World Events producers mentioned that they should be sending " [The] ones with the lion." Mistakenly, Toei then proceeded to ship World Events copies of "Hyakujuu-ou Golion" — another "combining-robot" "anime" featuring lion-shaped fighters. However in this case, the World Events producers greatly preferred the "GoLion" series over to "Daltanius", and the "GoLion" episodes went on to become arguably the most popular portion of the original "Voltron" run.

A rather remarkable irony is that as a Voltron, Daltanius would have been composed from one Lion, one Vehicle, and one Gladiator.

Video Games

The series was introduced into Banpresto's "Super Robot Wars" series as part of "Super Robot Wars Destiny"'s line-up in 2003. It was also featured in "Super Robot Wars GC" in 2004 and "Super Robot Wars XO" in 2006.
