One property we haven’t seen much of in the last few years is making a new push in North America with Seven Seas having now acquired the Hideaki Anno and Shinpei Itou’s Cutie Honey a Go Go! manga license. The work is going to be a big and fun omnibus release when it lands as the classic character from Go Nagai gets a new lease on life.
“Who hasn’t heard of Cutie Honey? She’s one of the most iconic ‘magical girls’ in anime fandom,” says Seven Seas Editor-in-Chief Adam Arnold. “I’ve got a manga bucket list and this book was on it, and we’re all excited to be able to publish this complete Cutie Honey story.”
Seven Seas will bring this out for the first time in English in North America in a single 386-page omnibus edition to be released on September 26, 2017 for $15.99 USA / $17.99 CAN.
Plot concept: Tokyo is under seige by the terrorist organization known as Panther Claw, and the beautiful superheroine android known as Cutie Honey appears on the scene to take them on—but fails! For her own protection, Cutie Honey must join forces with government agent Natsuko Aki, and pose as student and teacher at St. Chapel Academy. But there is nowhere to hide from Panther Claw and its leader’s evil machinations!
