Mugi is a delusional idiot who believes his first love is infallible. Always giving into her surroundings and scarcely making a choice for herself. But empathy means jack shit if you don't like them. Yea you could empathize with them, which is important and good. I feel that given the opportunity, Mugi, Ecchan, or Hanabi, would immediately hop into the arm's of their first love.ДЄlmost none of the characters were likable. I feel that no one in this manga had any meaningful character development. They'd make a little progress, show a sign of moving on only to hit a wall, give up, have a little emotionless sex and go back to a world of self pity. I'm not going to argue with the disturbing fetish that is netorare.ДЄnother issue with the character in this story is that the characters has this nasty little regression habit. Either that or he's a masochist who want's to be cheated on. It's one thing to love someone despite their faults, but to love someone with seemingly no redeeming qualities is just ridiculous. He doesn't know enough about her to love her. That's not an answer, why does he want to make her happy, why does he love her. Why would he willingly commit to being a cuckold? 'To make her happy'. The only thing he knows for sure, is that she's a pretty face. Everything he knows about her is total bullshit. What does he love about her? Think about it. Specifically Kanai's (and Mugi's) love for Akane. On the other hand a lot of their actions and emotions feel completely unjustified and frankly illogical. And Mugi and Hanabi's sexual solace in each other while unhealthy, is understandable. Characters felt like they could be real people, they were relatable and all but one felt competent.ДЄlmost all of us can relate to loving someone who won't love us. Next the character, this is a double edged blade.

This is the only aspect of the manga I have very concrete positive feelings for. Mengo's greatest achievement in Kuzu No Honkai was definitely her art. Each of the character's design feel unique and somehow colorful. I adore Yokoyari Mengo's art, it's very well done. But I just can't, and here's why.ДЇirst and foremost I'd like to praise the superficial, the art. I want to like Kuzu No Honkai, I really do. With little hope of their feelings being realized, these two students face a challenging predicament: cope with and move on from their lust, or become further entangled in their web of unrequited love. As a result, Mugi and Hanabi find solace in each other as victims of the same pain.

Now teachers at the same school, Kanai and Minagawa begin to show an interest in one another. Mugi is in love with Akane Minagawa, who used to be his tutor when he was younger. Hanabi is in love with Narumi Kanai, her new homeroom teacher who is also her childhood friend. Unbeknownst to friends and family, however, there is a side to their love veiled by hidden passions: their true affections lie elsewhere, and they use each other to physically sate their unreciprocated feelings. They are the envy of their classmates, and it is easy to portray them as the classic example of high school sweethearts. Hanabi Yasuraoka and Mugi Awaya are two high school students who appear to have the ideal relationship. It comes in many forms, yet each one shares the same debilitating feeling of inconceivable longing. EditSynopsis Unrequited love is a tragic circumstance with no simple resolution.
