What was wrong with Wedding Peach? I didn't get far into it but it seemed inoffensive enough.

Of all the things you can lay at Cutie Honey, preteen girl bullshit is not one of them.

That came exclusively from what she spawned.

She's basically Japan's Wonder Woman for better or worse

That's what I mean. Sandwich shops are great, but if they didn't exist, we'd never have fought World War I, which would mean no World War II.

Basically what I'm saying is that Cutie Honey created Hitler.

I was going to get to that

Yeah.

Cutie Honey was made by Go Nagai as mentioned, and he is a man who is unashamed of his tastes. Frankly it's remarkable that Cutie Honey is as legitimately good as it is. Though ole Honey has never had the best luck with adaptations. I think the best incarnation of her has been that one mini Gainax series from the same time as the live action movie...after the first episode. The first episode is awful

And to tie it back to Power Rangers, the toku tv series for Honey wasn't great either!

I liked the Panther Claw caucasian dude who would scream "poo poo" and then murder an employee every time something slightly irritating happened :v:

That show was real great if you were an edgelord like I was at the time, too, because the other two girls who the bootleg cyborgs to Honey's pure android were incredibly tragic.

To finish off Honey talk, my favorite theme song of hers...lyrically

Honey has a theme song that is iconic, classic, and just really drat cool to listen to. It SOUNDS cool.

The actual lyrics are just about how sexy she is though and that's not great. But of all the theme songs she's had, this one is the most on point and least embarrassing to know what it actually means!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSfPep18Dew

This is from Shin Cutie Honey made in the 1990s, which is honestly pretty good all considered. It's not as insane as Re: Cutie Honey, and it has a really drab style because 90S!!! but it features Honey at her most Super Hero-y. I don't know WHY this is in English sung by the Japanese singer, but hey whatever

Man, did I love that series! It was weird as gently caress and yet somehow hilarious. The episode where Honey teams up with a bunch of hobos to fight evil was just wonderful.

I'm not a fan of that first movie though, talk about a snooze fest. At least the theme song was great:

So far the only design I like are the power coins, but thats countered by the morphers looking like melted plastic.

This movie somehow makes the terrible aesthetic choices of the Transformers and Ninja Turtles movies seem kind of ok by comparison.

Not sure if anyone else is reading the current MMPR comics series but the reveal at the end of this months issue is pretty interesting. Overall this series has been a pretty good "grown up" take on the original MMPR.

Technically Sentai stuff goes in this thread too so it seems we've got our first picture of next years team Uchuu(Space) Sentai Kyuranger:



From what I've been hearing there'll be 9 rangers (possibly from the very start), they'll be named after constellations and it also gives us a female Green from the start. So assuming this picture is legit (and so far I've found no proof that it isn't), this seems like it could be interesting.

Ed: Yep, looks like it's the real deal. here's some more info about Kyuranger to go with it.

Speaking of the mech, here's a picture of that too:



and some full body shots of the team (or the toy versions anyway), which also confirms that Green is female this time around:



The names, as mentioned in my first post, each correspond to a specific constellation so:

Shishi(Lion)Red = Leo
Sasori(Scorpion)Orange = Scorpius
Ookami(Wolf)Blue = Lupus
Tenbin(Balance)Gold = Libra
Oushi(Bull)Black = Taurus
Hebitsukai(Snake Charmer)Silver = Ophiuchus
ChameleonGreen = Chamaeleon
Washi(Eagle)Pink = Aquila
Kajiki(Swordfish)Yellow = Dorado
