One day, Honey Kisaragi’s a trendy, class-cutting Catholic schoolgirl. The next, her father’s been murdered by demonic divas from a dastardly organization called Panther Claw. When his dying message reveals that she’s an android, Honey uses the transformative power of the Atmospheric Element Condenser - the very thing Panther Claw wanted to steal - to seek revenge against the shadowy clan. Can Honey fight her way up Panther Claw’s ranks to defeat its leader, the sinister Sister Jill, while managing to escape the watchful eyes of Miss Hystler, her school’s headmistress?
Aided by journalist Seiji Hayami, his ninja father, and lady loving grade school brother, Honey sometimes appears as a racecar driver, sometimes as a glamorous model, and sometimes as a beggar, but her true identity is none other than the warrior of love, CUTIE HONEY! Created by legendary manga artist Go Nagai (Mazinger Z, Getter Robo, Devilman) and first broadcast in 1973, CUTIE HONEY is one of the first action-driven magical girl shows, despite being aimed at a squarely male audience. Having since become a staple with various spinoff and reboot OVAs and TV shows, not to mention a live action film, this release presents the original CUTIE HONEY TV series for the first time on Blu-ray in North America in its original Japanese with English subtitles.
