About Scum's Wish

If you are hunting for a new school series, Scum's Wish (Kuzu no Honkai) deserves a look (2017). The setup goes like this. The setup: To the outside realm, Hanabi Yasuraoka and Mugi Awaya are the perfect couple. But in reality, they just share the same hidden pain: they are both in love with other people they cannot be with.

Also worth knowing: Hanabi has loved her childhood ally and neighbor Narumi Kanai for as long as she can remember, so she is elated to discover that he is her new homeroom teacher. However, Narumi is soon noticed by the music teacher, Akane Minagawa, and a relationship kicks off to blossom between them, much to Hanabi's dismay. Mugi was tutored by Akane in middle school, and has been in love with her since then.

As a school title, campus dynamics, friendships and rivalries set the day-to-day tone. If you count yourself among viewers who enjoy school-life settings, put it on your list.
