Summary:

The forces of evil are on the rise. When the evil mastermind Sister Jill transforms one of her girls into the bestial Breast Claw and sends her minions out on a mission involving the group Panther Claw and a jewelry store heist, Honey Kisaragi departs from her Catholic girls’ school to confront the threat as Cutie Honey. But that’s exactly what Sister Jill wants, as she desires Honey’s Airborne Element Fixing Device, which allows her to transform into Honey’s seven different forms. Meanwhile, Sister Jill is also on the scene in disguise as Inspector Genet, trying to worm her way into Honey’s confidence from a different angle. (Source: ANN)

Review:

Cutie Honey is based on a 1979 manga by Go Nagai. When I first watched the anime I thought it was very weird and extreme. When I realized it was by Go Nagai. I can safely say that its the least weirdest anime he made. The story is about an Android who is fighting demons to save the city and seek revenge on them for killing her father.

It very old school. The story is straight forward. The anime is super gay. I don’t know if it has so gay in the old versions though. The anime had a clear villain which was refreshing to see.  Other than that the anime was so ridiculous in a good way and absolutely fun to watch.

Overall Rate: 7/10
