Cutey Honey Universe was gonna fail from the start, it doesn’t matter the director, animation studio or whatever it is. It reached a point I can’t think the series will get an actual nice and REALLY faithful adaptation, it simply cannot be animated, and no, its not even because of the weird ecchi this series has. This anime is the last nail in the coffin of Cutey Honey, the anime that somehow could revive it, ended up killing it. The visuals are stale, the animation is ok and when it tries to really do something it plays safe or it feels off, you listen probably twoor three songs EVERY EPISODE from the entire ost, and the writing is pretty much the worst aspect of it, some characters actions and motivations are the stupidest thing I’ve seen in a while, you’re gonna get pissed when is the MAIN PROTAGONIST who does this kind of crap.

Oh yeah, the plot only starts to move from episode 6 onwards. Such waste of time.

To summarize it all, Cutie Honey Universe feels like it tried but it failed miserably. If you’re a fan, skip this, its painful to watch, If you’re new to the series, just watch Re: or Shin.
