  What a shoujo anime should NOT be like.

  In all of my years of watching anime, I have encountered a decent amount of shoujo anime. There were some good ones, some completely average ones, and maybe even some that were kind of bad. However, never in my life have I watched a shoujo anime that has left me so infuriated that I could and would go on a rampage. That is, until I watched Honey x Honey Drops.

  To all of the other girls out there: THIS KIND OF ROMANCE IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE. If you think it's okay to be treated like this by your partner, you should probably seek therapy. Now that that's out of the way, let's move on to the actual review, shall we?

  The premise of Honey x Honey Drops is rather simple, actually. The story is set in Houjou Academy, a school where rich kids take some kind of course known as the Kuge Course. The students in this class pick a student who is not taking the class as their "honey". The "honey" has to obey all of their "master's" commands, and in exchange, the "master" pays for the "honey's" tuition in the school. Our heroine, Yuzuru Hagino, is chosen as the "honey" for Kai Renge, a rich guy who finds any way possible to sexually harass poor Yuzuru.

  Yeah, you read that correctly. I just said, "Sexually harass."

  The story for Honey x Honey Drops.... wait, what kind of story could be crammed into two OVA episodes? A generic love story that is rather poorly-executed, that's what kind. The animation, done by Radix, isn't too bad, although it's not all that great, either. The voice acting could have been done better, to be honest, despite the fact that very talented voice actors like Misato Fukuen and Kenichi Suzumura are part of the cast. Finally, neither the opening nor ending songs are very memorable.

  Now, with that out of the way, let's talk about the biggest problem I have with Honey x Honey Drops: THE CHARACTERS. Kai is absolutely despicable, and the things he does to Yuzuru is completely unacceptable. If he truly loved her, why make her suffer so much?! Yuzuru is an idiotic character, too, taking this abuse. I mean, Kai has done so many awful things to Yuzuru, yet she loves him anyway?! What the heck is with that kind of logic?! I was at least hoping for Chihaya to be a better love interest for Yuzuru than Kai, but nope! He's even more despicable than Kai! I assume that's the case in order to make Kai look less like a jerk, but knowing what he has done, it doesn't work that well. Oh, and I also didn't care for any of the supporting characters.

  So yeah, Honey x Honey Drops is NOT a good anime. If you want to see what a shoujo anime should NOT be like, be my guest. I warn you, though; there are better things you can do with an hour of your time._In all of my years of watching anime, I have encountered a decent amount of shoujo anime.
