You feel the disgust, you feel the dejection but in the end you also feel the bittersweet gratification.
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…

_"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…

*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…

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 →An interesting premise was ruined by bad directing choices and exaggerated scenes.
_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…

____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…

_"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…

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 →A love story? I think not.
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…

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.

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.

Read full review on AniList →I watched Scum’s Wish and honestly hated the toxic relationships, emotional mess, and depressing storytelling.
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…

__Z cyklu anime warte uwagi - Kuzu no honkai__
Gdybym miała wskazać anime, które zrobiło na mnie ogromne wrażenie w ostatnim czasie byłoby to Kuzu no honkai (na język, tfu, angielski Scum's Wish). Powiem szczerze po opisie tego animca myślałam, że to będzie pozycja w stylu Ukryta Prawda/Trudne Spr…

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…

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…
