If you're into a completely badass characters this drama is for you!
Honeys is one of the best jdrama that I've ever watched it's rare to find a jdrama with a badass characters. This story is about three sisters who works as a debt collector in Honeys-shark loan organization. What's great about these three sisters is that they make sure that the borrowers would never miss having their money collected by these badass women. Every episodes have different kinds of clients who borrows money from Honeys.I can say that I love the actresses who played the role in these drama: Yu Takahashi the sister of Maryjun Takahashi seems at first glance she is very similar from her sister and her acting skills too! I hope Yu can have her main lead role because she proved that she nailed as a badass role in this drama. I also commend the acting skills of Kato Konatsu and Sayaka Kakehashi because both of them are cute but at the same time they show their badass side! Lastly, Yumiki Nao always steals the show because of her costumes and colorful wigs she wear every episode that I always look up on her cute style! I hope she will be given more main lead roles!
The clients are the depiction in real life about Japanese people who always used to borrow money from creditors or loan sharks. As witnessed that every person have its reason to borrow money it can be bad or good. Lesson learn for every each one of us is to not to rely on borrowing money from the shark lones. We should prevent ourselves from overspending money from unecessary things. We should learn how to value money but in a right way. One must work hard rather than depending on loan sharks and creditors.

If strong women who totally kick butts is what you want, this drama is highly recommended.
A-W-E-S-O-M-E! I know I'll sound super biased, but trust me. This drama is a modern day Jdrama masterpiece. I can barely find anything to complain about. Everything about this drama was good.The characters were interesting, the plot was unpredictable (at least to me), the acting was great. I was already in love with Takahashi Yu-san's acting. And now, I think I'm crazy about her acting. She was the perfect, strong protagonist this show promised. The other characters and actors were good too. One thing special for me as a Tokusatsu fan, was the guest appearances of 3 actors from 3 of my favorite Tokusatsu series. Especially Maekawa Yasuyuki. He was such a delight. And even though the character he played wasn't a total good guy like our 3 heroines, I still loved the character and his appearance.
The plot was also properly laid out with the usual wild card frequently used in Jdramas. So people who have watched more Jdrama may be able to predict that part. But I found it surprising and enjoyable. The family bonds and relationships were pretty satisfying.
The music was good too. The super energetic and fun ending contrasted the cool and mysterious BGM properly.
One more thing unique about this drama is the filter used for the series. It gives the vibes of a Japanese mystery drama from the 2000s(Not so sure how to judge that, I don't have much experience in those fields). Anyways, I loved this side too, which makes you think the drama is older than it is. If I had randomly opened and watched an episode, I probably would have thought this drama was made 7-10 years ago.
In short, if you're visiting this page, noticing the tags and thinking this might be your cup of tea, then WATCH IT! Cuz it delivers! This drama deserves more love! Highly recommended to Jdrama fans who are looking for something different to watch.
I can't be more glad to have found and watched this drama.
