Not sure if any of you toku fans are watching this. This Live Action rendition is closer to the original than the recent movie. Three episodes in and I already like it. Sure it's quirky, but it works. It also helps that the actress who plays Honey is easy on the eyes :D

The fight scenes are ok, but are getting progressively better with each ep. The baddies aren't bad as well. I love the quirky speech behaviors, especially from the guy who switches from Japanese to English (freakin awesome English, I must add). I can't wait to watch more

When it comes to the to "live-action" manga adaptations that came out in Japan this season, I'm more interested in this series than live-action Negima.

I was a bit dissapointed that the first episode didn't have the 'Honey Monologue' (you know the part where she goes 'Sometimes I'm a...' a few times then end with 'But the truth is...HONEY FLASH!!! Ai no senshi! Cutey Honey!') and I haven't taken the time to track down the other episodes (is the monologue back?) but I've been meaning to.

The scene where one of the doods attacks Honey only to send himslelf flying? That was a riot.

I have to say... This is an interesting find.. Considering I'm considering going back to my anime roots now that the only other heroine is off the air. But Now I can see what toku fans love Honey. And yes i have to agree, Funkatron, the actress is easy on the eyes, and she's definitely Cutey honey from the word go..

I mean now I can really see why anime works but this takes the manga/anime and takes it a leap further.

:coyote:

Ep 5 is out and it looks like we get...Another Honey?

Wonder how she'll play into Honey's origin...and according the shows intro, we should be getting a third one soon enough...
