SynopsisHagino Yuzuru is a normal high school student attending Houjou academy. There is a special course within the school called the Kuge course for the rich. Only students with a flower name within their name can enrol in the program. There is a "Honey system" where the special student chooses a normal student as his "honey." This relationship is like a master and honey. In return for being a "honey" the master pays all of the "honey's" tuition and must obey all commands. Hagino Yuzuru gets involved with Renge Kai, one of the special students, and it could be a big mistake for Yuzuru.

I somehow managed to stumble upon this anime while wandering MAL. I haven't seen much common, cute, lovey-dovey romance in a while, so I was like 'heck, one hour of sweet romance would be enough for now'. Now I say, I should've used my precious time for something that actually has a point. This anime... is disappointing to core.
~Story~ (1)
Considering there actually IS a plot, you may say the rating shoud've been larger. But it isn't. Why? Because this plot you read in the description of the anime, is nothing more, but something being made so there could be some sexual harassment in the anime, WHICH by the way, I didn't approve at all. That isn't bloody romance. And who the hell put 'romance' tag on this thing? The only time I've seen romance was the last 5 seconds, yet I haven't seen anything that actually supported their so-called love. So this is kind of 'master-servant' relationship between students - what school in the world is giving away students to be sexually harassed? AND FOR MONEY?! Seriously, Minami-san, get some logic would you?
~Art~ (6)
Like any other 2 episode OVA, this art was actually rather good. It was pretty much typical bishoujo and bishounen drawn, since all of the characters are rather cute/hot/something else, but nothing special, or original. They used the blasted slow-motion so many times, the whole anime should've lasted 20 minutes, not one hour.
~Sound~ (4)
Pfft. Oh well, the opening wasn't that bad, something that pretty much resembles any other romantic anime opening, but gee, the background music was terrible! It was almost as if the anime was dealing with the matter life and death, but sadly enough, it didn't. No~ we listened over-dramatic music back then when he told her she was doing it wrong, like, God forbid you drop the ball. The voice actors are annoying, and WAY~ too cliche. I was surprised when I noticed Misato voicing Yin from Darker than Black actually appeared here. What a loss of time for her. Yin rules.
~Character~ (3)
God, if I got a coin for every second of main male character saying words 'idiot' and 'honey' I would be surrounded by Japanese waiters, cosplaying and yelling 'irashaimasen' by now. Their personalities are all so goddamn blunt, so undeveloped, and just illogical! The girl almost willingly let the guy touch her anywhere he wants, and in front of people. And not just her, he! HE! Who in the world harasses a girl in front of other people?!
The other characters seem to enjoy the show any time that happens. And in the end, it's actually hinted the guy loves the girl. Aww, well, shoving your hand down her panties is not really making a point, I believe.
~Enjoyment~ (3)
Well, it wasn't as horrible as 'OMG, MY EYES' but it was very boring, very predictable, and extremely cliche. The rare moments where something romantic would happen were cute, and the beginning actually looked promising, so I gave the credits for that, although I didn't enjoy that as close as much I believed I will.
~Overall~ (4)
No, it's not decent, it's bad, I don't understand why the 'names' of the ranking are different in the review from ones in your anime list. This anime has no developed story, just the settings, and horrible ones at that, characters are total idiots, and every single scene is presented as something VERY dramatic, while it isn't at all.
This anime sucks. Point made. You don't have to take it, though. read more

You know the top reviews of this two part OVA say... "don't watch it" -- well, if you were thinking of ignoring them and watching it anyway just because it sounds interesting... DON'T DO IT!!! Because that's what I did, because I figured it can't be that bad, I'm bored so I'll watch it anyway and geez..............
It was offensive, ridiculous, and mind-numbingly lame. The main guy is the guy who voiced Hikaru in Ouran, which I liked him for... and I liked his voice in this too, except that there is something mentally wrong with his character's personality. He seems a bit deranged, trusts no one, yet somehow knows how to love in a twisted way.
The story was shallow and forced (I think because things were glazed over - hopefully this will be fixed in the manga, which I have yet to read) and made no sense in some places. The most ridiculous things happen and really make you think "what? why would an armadillo be there..." but you know what, forget it, let's just stop using our brain for this one.
Even if I stop using my brain, and there is definitely a storyline... why does this anime suck so bad? I can't figure it out, but all I can say is that it pained me to watch it and I hope the manga's better (usually is). I will be the next in line to say: Just don't watch it! read more

Both are from the same author, so they have the same type of art.
Again, it's just understandable only to manga fans, otherwise the plot itself could not be tracked. Both "Mitsu x Mitsu Drops" and "Kyou, Koi Hajimemasu" are great manga works, but its anime adaptataion can be called nothing more than their appendix. Still the drawing is awesome, so just get esthetical pleasure from both ;)
Romance at school and drama mixed together with some comedy.
Both of these series are by the same shojo manga artist and thus similar artwork.
Additionally, both of these series takes place in a school like setting revolving an innocent girl with the typical "bad" playboy yet popular guy. Among these factors, misunderstandings and drama are bound to take place sharing that similarity as well.
