It's way sexier, feminist, and socially aware than most of the stuff on the market today. I've always get the hots for sexy characters that know they're sexy and want to be sexy! And, there's still so few anime with a shonen theme and a respectable female lead.I find the character's places to be balanced to where they need to be. The others help Honey, but they don't steal the spot light with how helpful they are. Honey takes down the enemies alone, without anyone jumping in to rescue her. Something way too... common in modern anime.I thought the show would be more science-y, given the setup, but it's a lot of magic. The deaths are more real, than expected from the rest of what's going on. the only things that disappointed me were 2 characters died that didn't have to, and it ends on a cliffhanger. And, sometimes there are those "IYA!" moments, but that's an ecchi thing. Reviewer’s Rating: 10 What did you think of this review?

I am a fan of seeking out older anime and watching it. This anime, as far as I am aware, is one of the original Magical Girl series. Where a girl transforms into different clothes/armor/etc to defeat her enemies. It's a simple concept and this is a simple show. It's your basic Monster of the Week fair. Ultimately leading to Cutey Honey taking on the ring leader at the end. Each enemy Cutey faces is interesting, but most don't have too much development. The death scenes can be quite brutal with a fair amount of blood.The problem with the show... is it isn't finished. I'm sure the manga finished it, but not here. Cutey defeats a main enemy, but not the main ring leader. By the time the show reboots with Shin Cutey Honey you just have to assume that somewhere along the way the main ring leader was taken out. It puts a damper on an otherwise fairly entertaining show.Watch 2 or 3 episodes at your leisure and enjoy the funky beats. Just don't watch too much or you'll get burnt out due to the repetitive nature. I found the show entertaining. I think you'll feel the same way.

Cutey Honey is based on the manga of the same name by Go Nagai. It is regarded as one of the very first magical girls.The story in Cutey Honey is quite simple. Kisaragi Honey is just your average catholic schoolgirl (not). One day she returns home to find that her father has been killed. An evil organisation called Panther Claw is responsible for his death. His dying message reveals that Honey is actually an Android that can use transformative powers thanks to the Atmospheric Element Solidifier that is located... inside her body. The Atmospheric Element Solidifier is also the very thing that Panther Claw killed Honey's father to get a hold of. Now Honey has sworn to become the warrior of love Cutey Honey, and to get revenge on her fathers killers. Cue monster of the week.This show is little more than a monster of the week show, with the added benefit of fanservice. Cutey Honey is silly and over the top. Seing Honey not just defeat her enemies, but also kill them every episode was a nice change for a magical girl. However, the silliness runs dry quite quick and the show becomes much more of a slog. Pair that up with less than pleasing visuals, almost no animation, and backgrounds that look like they were painted by children, the show has really shown just how much of a product of it's time it is. It's an interesting watch as a historic piece, but as an entertainment piece it is honestly not good. Reviewer’s Rating: 4 What did you think of this review?
