Plot Summary: One day, Honey Kisaragi is a trendy, class-cutting Catholic schoolgirl. The next, her father's been murdered by the demonic divas from a dastardly organization called Panther Claw. When his dying message reveals that she is an android, Honey uses the transformative power of the Atmospheric Element Condenser - the very thing Panther Claw wanted to steal - to seek revenge against the evil syndicate.
