#Kuzu no honkai fanservice series#
Almost every facet of Scum’s Wish revolves around sex, causing the series to be rather unnerving. Add in an aggressive lesbian who falls for Hanabi within minutes of being saved from a pervert on a crowded subway, a goodie two-shoes lolli who is unfailingly devoted to Mugi’s love and a creeper who’s constantly trying to molest his cousin and the wheels start to fall off the believability. Honestly, the whole premise sounds like a joke. Kanai, who in turn is in love with a fellow teacher, who just happens to be the apple of her classmate Mugi’s eye, so naturally Mugi and Hanabi start a facade of a relationship to help them cope with the unattainable “unicorn” they’ll never be with. Our main character, Hanabi is in love with her life long “brother” figure Mr. The problem is, to achieve this level of promiscuity, the writers lose the credibility they attempt to obtain due to the dialogue and monologues drowning in a sea of melodrama.
One night stands, homosexuality, virginity and incest are all covered at some point in the anime’s short 12 episode run, in an attempt to unearth the deepest and darkest fantasies of virtually everyone in the cast. What we’re left with is an askew pile of sexual hatred and numbness that is downright unsettling. Does it succeed in translating the equivocal nature of human sexuality or does it miss the mark?Īdapted by the small scale Studio Lerche (Assassination Classroom), Scum’s Wish takes the concept of a love triangle to unfathomable new heights by adding a dynamic and cunning twist, where love escapes the limelight. Scum’s Wish is a visceral, raw and uncomfortable approach to love and lust, and even deeper, what makes our minds tick from a relationship perspective. Although these concepts can be weighty and complicated, experiencing them is part of what makes us human, and are as intense as any incident we’re likely to encounter in our lives. Lust is an enveloping, instinctive thirst for a partner’s sexual freedom. Love is ambiguous at a young age, and can often be a stifling enigma. “Lovesick” teenagers are often impressionable and irrational, driven by an overwhelming cesspool of hormones and emotions. Love and lust are two terms synonymous with the young and naive but understood by those who’ve experienced both.
