Not nearly as cleverly written as the original, felt lazy, and consequently not nearly as much fun. At least the star character wasn't altered any, that would've made it unbearable. Overall just boring and quite unfunny, was expecting more. In essence not Cutie Honey at all. Perhaps the spin-offs will be better.

hmm, that's it? just like the previous series it doesn't have a 'real' ending, kind of disappointing. besides that it was a fun OVA though.

Pretty lovely last episode of this ova series of Cutey Honey I must say, I did prefer the first couple episodes more than the latter. But in general the quite intense parts were just awesome!

Really looking forwards to see the side stories of this franchise!

Loved seeing Cutey Honey's ugly teacher from the original series.

Fun tribute to the original, though not as good. But ain't that always the case?

8/10 mostly for nostalgia factor

Lol,sensei from the first series.

Well, what can I say, I enjoyed the hell out of every episode,which were easily better than almost any from the original Cutey Honey.

Very good show to have fun.

Quite sad to see it had to end without having the feel of closure. Overall I think this series was average indeed still it was pretty fun to watch and watching Honey's character are really fun. I also preffered the show as being episodic rather than telling its story (the first four EP).

EDIT:
Speaking of this abrupt ending, I read from the wikipedia states that the series was actually got cancelled:
"The series staff planned to make at least twelve episodes, but it ended with eight in 1995. A 2004 DVD release included a scripted but unfilmed ninth episode—a Christmas story—as a drama CD."

What?! How dare they call that a final episode?! Oh well, at least there was one good thing: Kabuto Juzô.

2/5 Nice apparition of the 70s teacher.

A futuristic revival of the series with slight humour, more action, more nudity but lacking in violence. Lots of cameo/guest-stars from other Nagai titles helped to make it a fun watch. The way it stops somewhere with no sense of conclusion whatsoever prevents it to elevate itself above manga or TV show who both had some sort of achievement thanks to the completed revenge...

Very well drawn but rather still for OAVs thanks to the overuse of speed lines and cuts to simplify action scenes. (I remember reading in the 90s how TOEI was proud of the number of cellulo they were using per OAV... Ahahah !)

Score: 6/10 Average but fun.

Bummer that the ending was so abrupt with no resolution or hint of future prospects, but I loved this OVA nonetheless :) the art style was great and the animation was beautiful <3

Seeing how much Cutie Honey cared about the people around her made me interested in the overall story. I'm looking forward to exploring the different iterations of this story and seeing where it goes. And even if it doesn't go anywhere in particular, it was still a super fun time! :D a big thank you to Toei and Go Nagai!
