Plot
In this version of the tale Aki Natsuko, more commonly known as Na-chan, is a squad leader for the public safety bureau and her subordinates live in fear of her. Her suit-wearing, chain smoking, gun wielding, impatient personality keeps her workers in their place.
The story begins, as it does in so many of the other Cutie Honey adaptations, as the evil Sister Jill and her Panther Claw gang have invaded the city. It is only the timely appearance of Cutie Honey that saves the city from total destruction. Natsuko throws herself into the mêlée, machine gun in hand.
When Butterfly Claw has been defeated, Natsuko takes it upon herself to arrest Honey for disturbing the peace.
The second time the Panther Claw attacks, Natsuko is all over it. She's also right there with the handcuffs for Honey, who cheerfully goes along with her.
After she's released for the second time, Honey (in disguise) brings Natsuko back to her father's lab, and all the typical Honey elements are explained. Prof. Kisaragi asks Natsuko to befriend Honey and help her become more human. When Natsuko arrives home that night, she finds that Honey has come to live with her.
In Volume 2, Honey and Natsuko learn that bizarre things are occurring at St. Chapel Jogakuen. So Natsuko signs up as a teacher and Honey as a student and they head off to this mysterious and strict private girl's school. They are met by Miharu, a sadistic teacher who takes an instant dislike to Honey.
Honey's roommate, Ayumu, is a good student and very nice person. But when Miharu can't catch Honey during her nightly transgressions or punish Natsuko, she targets Ayumu. Honey appears to be stalked by a dark, large and very gloomy upperclassman, who ultimately turns out to be in love with Ayumu. She blames Honey for Ayumu's troubles, and attacks her, but when the Panther Claw attacks the school, she backs off and lets Honey stop Spider Claw.
At the end of the story, Sister Jill names four new top Claws - Black, Gold, Cobalt, and Scarlet. Honey's father is killed, Natsuko vows to protect Honey, and Honey vows to fight to the bitter end to stop Sister Jill. The book ends, promising to continue the story in the next volume - which never happens.

Famous quotes containing the word plot:
“After I discovered the real life of mothers bore little resemblance to the plot outlined in most of the books and articles I’d read, I started relying on the expert advice of other mothers—especially those with sons a few years older than mine. This great body of knowledge is essentially an oral history, because anyone engaged in motherhood on a daily basis has no time to write an advice book about it.”
—Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
“Ends in themselves, my letters plot no change;
They carry nothing dutiable; they won’t
Aspire, astound, establish or estrange.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“There saw I how the secret felon wrought,
And treason labouring in the traitor’s thought,
And midwife Time the ripened plot to murder brought.”
—Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)
