Synopsis

Innocent 16-year-old Honey Kisaragi has just transferred to a Catholic school for girls, where she is enamored by everyone around her—including the teachers and her new best friend, Natsuko Aki. Later that night, Honey hears her father, the famous scientist Dr. Kisaragi, calling for help, and on her way over, she discovers that she can magically transform her clothes into various costumes.

But at home, Honey finds her father dying in the arms of a reporter named Seiji Hayami, who had been interviewing him earlier. From her father's robot, Honey learns that she is, in fact, not human; she is a special android called "Cutie Honey," built with an innovative piece of technology which allows her to shapeshift into seven different forms.

As the technology inside Honey can convert airborne particles into any and all types of matter, Dr. Kisaragi has been targeted by the organization called Panther Claw—a group of underground female cyborgs who greedily wish to use this technology for their own agenda. Now, Honey must protect her secret identity and avenge her late father by confronting any obstacle that Panther Claw sends her way!

Turn to the '73 anime if you can find it - The '73 manga has stuff to offer - jokes that land, an iconic drawing style, incredible character expressions and designs, sexy curves, some cool vehicles, vicious action, and a mostly break-neck storytelling pace. This iteration also features plenty of jokes and propaganda-y portrayals that don't age well, an inconsistent tone - sometimes brutal, other times irritatingly non-sensical, and startling lack of empathy to and among the characters.

The main character naturally gets the most love - the humor, the eye candy, the visual appeal, the plot and humanity (barely) all stem from and center ...

This manga has a largely female cast. Almost all of which are Lesbian. This work has horrible representation of lesbians. They are either depicted as horny creeps or as very ugly, ogre like women.

The plot is lackluster and uninteresting. I would like to add that this manga ends at a cliff hanger and you need to read a sequel manga to get the full story. I will not be reading that because of how horrendous this one was.

The characters were forgettable and uninteresting. At one point a character died and I didn't care at all. This character, like most wasn't written poorly and had a ...

Cutie Honey was such a disappointment.

I was watching the 1973 anime and quite enjoying, so I decided to take a look at the manga.
While I've appreciated Go Nagai's other works, especially during my childhood, this one reveals itself to be disrespectful and disturbing.


Honey's mission is your typical avenge tale, but it could have developed some interesting implications. However, it takes a step back to leave space to Nagai's need to make some of the most idiotic jokes I've heard since I was in middle school.
The manga seems to want not to take itself seriously, but it ends up showing a lack of respect towards its ...
