Kuzu no Honkai
Hanabi has loved her older friend Narumi for years, but she’s still in high school and not only is Narumi now her new homeroom teacher, he’s also clearly in love with the music teacher, Akane. And as awkward as being the unwanted third in a romantic triangle can be, things become even more twisted for Hanabi when she learns that another student, Mugi, is in love with Akane. That leads to a strange idea: since the ones that Mugi and Hanabi are in love with aren’t available, the two unrequited thirds start to explore the idea of becoming each other’s substitute surrogate relationship. It’s not about romance, of course. Just sex and convenience. (Source: Sentai Filmworks)

Reasons to watch Kuzu no Honkai? I don't have any. Then why watch it? Simply because, it isn't a cliched romantic comedy, albeit, the romantic premise is quite cliche itself, considering the love triangle but apart from that, everything else the series does, makes it stand out from the heaps of garb…
Read full review on AniList →_"It's not like it will be the end of this world if someone refused me... But that's how love is, that's how it makes you feel"_ Truth be told, this is one of those anime that you either find cliché, or relate to on a spiritual level. For me, it was the latter. As someone who has experienced and g…

Read full review on AniList →__SPOILER-FREE!__ During an early scene, Hanabi and Mugi are on the school’s rooftop, reflecting on the feelings that they share for their certain someone. Lamenting the pain they both feel, they begin to yet again indulge in a series of motions and sensations tinged with bittersweet taste. Every ki…
Read full review on AniList →*Kuzu no Honkai* is the heaviest drama I’ve seen to date. Now trust me, I don’t use that designation lightly, I’ve seen some stuff (whether it’s anime or not) that really messed with me, but this show packed a surprising punch, one that I did not, in any way, shape or form, expect. It is, to me, a h…
Read full review on AniList →Scum‘s wish is a story that immediately sucked me in when I first watched it. The premise, the characters, the music and the visuals. It was a lovestory that I‘ve never seen with this kind of concept and after finishing it I was confident that I was certainly not the only person who loved this show…
Read full review on AniList →_Kuzu no Honkai_ ("Scum's Wish") had interesting premises. As the title suggests, this series wanted to explore the mean, sick, selfish side of love. To portray an unidolized and more mature view on this subject, the author decided to focus on teenage highschool students. Wait, that must be a mistak…
Read full review on AniList →____SPOILERS AHEAD____ The desire for love, how far would that make you drift in the void? Mengo Yokoyari answers with _Kuzu no Honkai_ that it's endless. Love changes you, but love can also render you motionless. You can see in the characters of _Kuzu no Honkai_ each of these aspects. Protagonists…
Read full review on AniList →_"It's sad how little you mean to the person who means the world to you"_ Kuzu no Honkai became one my favorite romance of all time. I'm not really into this genre, but this is one of the most realistic romance that I have watched so far. It's not your typical romance love triangle drama out there…
Read full review on AniList →If you like me, you sometimes fall into that obvious trap and judge a book by its cover. Recommended in [Domestic Girlfriend](https://anilist.co/anime/103139/Domestic-Girlfriend/)'s page, has a very lewd cover and a suspicious name. They all say the same thing: "Stay away". But here I am, telling y…
Read full review on AniList →Kuzu no Honkai ~ A too depressing story and I guess somewhat emotional? In fact, it tries so hard to be emotional but fails miserably as a whole. This should not even be considered a romance anime. Instead, it should be considered a lowkey hentai. (Spoilers ahead) The characters are dull and bore…
Read full review on AniList →__Minor spoilers ahead. __ I had been putting this show off for a while because I heard that It had a bad ending. But boy, did it surprise me, I went in thinking it would be boring and cliché. When I finished watching, I came out as a new person. ____ The show starts by introducing the Hanabi, o…

Read full review on AniList →Love can come in many forms. It can hurt, destroy, build up relationships, and share desires. Love is a beautiful thing, but sometimes behind that beauty lurks darkness, despair, loneliness. I will be reviewing Kuzu no Honkai or Scum’s wish as a Manga reader. Hope you enjoy. (Possible Spoilers) I…
Read full review on AniList →I’ll be real—I went into Scum’s Wish thinking I was about to watch a deep, emotional romance drama, but what I actually ended up watching felt more like a nonstop cycle of toxic relationships and emotional frustration that I personally just couldn’t enjoy. From the very beginning, the vibe felt heav…

Powiem szczerze po opisie tego animca myślałam, że to będzie pozycja w stylu Ukryta Prawda/Trudne Spr…
Read full review on AniList →A story about loving and letting go, through the eyes and lives of the worst people on earth. To be honest, this made me mad uncomfortable, but not just because the characters are ridiculously selfish, manipulative, escapist and in desperate need of therapy for their attachment issues. But because…
Read full review on AniList →This show completely turns the romance genre on its head. If you have seen school days or domestic girlfriend, apparently it draws comparisons to those two shows but I won't bother with that given I haven't seen either. This show is the opposite of typical anime romances with toxic characters and a…
