Shueisha’s Grand Jump magazine announced that Basilisk manga artist Masaki Segawa will launch a remake of Go Nagai’s Cutey Honey in the next issue, on June 6.
Nagai’s original manga of the “legendary sexy heroine” inspired several previous manga remakes, anime adaptations on television and home video, a live-action film, and a live-action television series. The magazine Grand Jump just debuted in Japan last fall as a merger of Shueisha’s seinen (young men’s) manga magazines Business Jump and Super Jump. Del Rey published Segawa’s Basilisk manga in North America.
