This 12-episode series, which premiered in Spring 2018, commemorates the legendary creator's 50th anniversary by largely adhering to the original manga's iconic character designs.

Produced by Production Reed, the anime offers a modern take on a foundational magical girl franchise that has influenced countless series since its debut. Its availability on HIDIVE means fans can experience the complete story, from Honey's transformations to her confrontations with the villainous Sister Jill.
