Cutie Honey (Blu-ray, 2004, Toei / Gainax) All Region
Hideaki Anno’s (Neon Genesis Evangelion) vibrant live-action take on Go Nagai’s cult manga Cutie Honey explodes with color, camp, and kinetic energy. Eriko Sato stars as Honey Kisaragi, a kindhearted office worker who secretly lives as the android superheroine Cutie Honey — a creation of her late scientist father and powered by the revolutionary “I-System.”
When the criminal syndicate Panther Claw emerges to unleash chaos and kidnaps Honey’s uncle, she springs into action against an eccentric lineup of foes in a wild blend of superhero action, sci-fi invention, and comic flair. Packed with dazzling visuals and Anno’s trademark stylization, Cutie Honey bridges anime and live-action with tongue-in-cheek charm and heartfelt spirit.
