Turn to the '73 anime if you can find it - The '73 manga has stuff to offer - jokes that land, an iconic drawing style, incredible character expressions and designs, sexy curves, some cool vehicles, vicious action, and a mostly break-neck storytelling pace. This iteration also features plenty of jokes and propaganda-y portrayals that don't age well, an inconsistent tone - sometimes brutal, other times irritatingly non-sensical, and startling lack of empathy to and among the characters. The main character naturally gets the most love - the humor, the eye candy, the visual appeal, the plot and humanity (barely) all stem from and centeron the MC, Honey, which leads to the manga tanking when Honey isn't present. All sense of sanity, plot progression, and surprisingly, sex appeal (save for one or two side characters) disappear when Honey does - making the Honey-absent stretches an absolute chore.

Luckily, this manga version ends prematurely but isn't the only attempt at Cutie Honey so why don't you check those out instead?
