Alyas Robin Hood (lit. Alias Robin Hood / English title: Bow of Justice) is a Philippine drama-action series broadcast by GMA Network starring Dingdong Dantes, Megan Young, and Andrea Torres. It premiered on September 19, 2016 on GMA Telebabad primetime block and also aired worldwide on GMA Pinoy TV. The series ended its 23-week run on February 24, 2017, with a total of 115 episodes, and replaced by Destined to be Yours.
According to its producers the series was inspired by the English folklore, Robin Hood.
After being estranged from his family for some years, Pepe De Jesus (Dingdong Dantes) returns home to make amends with his parents, Jose (Christopher de Leon) and Judy (Jaclyn Jose). Pepe grew up someone who tends to start fights much to the dismay of his father who hates conflicts. He revealed to his family that he has changed his ways and is becoming a lawyer soon and was welcomed by his family including his father who was initially unhappy of his return. Pepe also gets to know a girl, a pediatrician named Sarri Acosta (Megan Young).
All seems well for the De Jesus family until Pepe finds his father dead apparently murdered by his own arrow which Pepe owned since he was a teenager. He seeks who was behind the murder but he was blamed for the death of his own father and was convicted of a crime he didn't commit. While in transit to his prison, the vehicle carrying Pepe was bombed and Pepe along with the vehicle fell from a bridge. He was later found by Venus (Andrea Torres), who taught him martial arts.
Everyone thought that Pepe is dead. Armed with a bow and arrow made by his best friend, Jekjek, Pepe takes advantage of the situation to find who really was behind the murder of his father under a secret identity. He will also have the opportunity to thwart the illegal operations of those he suspects to be behind his father's murders and the money earned from these illegal operations are redistributed to the people in need which caused him to be known as "Alyas Robin Hood", an alter ego he adopts while he clears his own name.
