![]() There are some pretty shady motivations for character’s actions that simply rub me the wrong way and some really trash personalities, but they are portrayed superbly I can’t help but give them points for realism, the series pushes some boundaries when a homosexual character is introduced and plays with the idea of sex as a trade for comfort and affection, which ts done fabulously and I have to applaud them for the courage to present these scenarios to the watcher, halfway through the series I expect watchers to be yelling and/or crying about some of the scenes but by the end I expect them to feel contented in a way as even I couldn’t fully hate the worst character in the series as she did manage some growth before the series conclusion. ![]() The show speaks to me in ways I can’t explain having been through similar scenarios myself and while it might be a bit intense for some viewers, it’s the courage to be so daringly intense that kept me watching the first time around, as the story unfolded and characters developed. The reasons for those affections and the borders they cross. It’s painful to be alone, so they comfort each other, or do they?Īs the show progresses we see more characters tied together by the pain of affections not returned. The two are aware of each other’s unrequited loves and decide to be each others replacement, sharing physical intimacy in place of the people they truly love. Hanabi, the series female lead is in love with her childhood friend and neighbor Narumi, who in turn falls in love with Akane the music teacher, while Mugi, the male lead has loved Akane since she became his tutor in middle school, Hanabi and Mugi both have their own admirers too. ![]() ![]() The series is probably a little too much for the faint of heart as it can be a bit graphic, there’s no nudity or anything but plenty of suggestive and sexual references, so be aware that you have been warned. I’m sure that many of us can relate to the feelings felt by the characters in the series. You love someone, they love someone else, someone else loves you, for reasons that escape you or that are beyond you, your affections go unnoticed or unwanted, you curse fate for your pain but nothing ever changes. ![]() Kuzu no Honkai, Scum’s Wish, is a series about unrequited love and all the pain caused by it. ![]()
