Scum’s Wish

Scum’s Wish

A romance manga about a high school couple who sexually confide in each other for either of their unrequited love.

We did a full retrospective on this series that you can listen to. I really, really liked this manga. Mengo Yokoyari’s beautiful artwork only goes hand in hand with her ability to realistically display adolescent love. Just about every character has a terrific arc that fleshes them out.

However I personally HATE the epilogue Scum’s Wish decor and wish it never existed!
