Episode 05

This episode gets more into the characters minds, messed up as they may be, using flashbacks and sex scenes of all things…

Hanabi is seeing things in the morning.  Not a good sign…

Mugi’s senpai “educates” him about his music tutor crush.  After having sex with him first.  Priorities…

After being “educated”, good to see that Mugi no longer has illusions about Princess NTR Bitch.  But he can’t help his feelings for her.  She just really turns him on…

Licking AND nibbling.  Yum…

And now Mugi and his first girl hook up again.  For old times sake…

Love hotel time…

Really like how blunt she is…

Hanabi and Mugi make out at school…

The music teacher, Akane, seems bored…

Now Hanabi and Mugi are making out at his place.

Hanabi might be too cute for her own good…

Wait.  What?  Really?

So this music teach likes to drink when she’s bored…

And when you least expect it, her switch gets flipped.  A small victory for boring nice guys.  Or is it???

Hanabi and Mugi come so close to doing it…

The music teacher doesn’t hesitate and is incredulous when the nice guy does…

So close…  But no D cigar…

Queen NTR Bitch is taunting Hanabi at the end of this episode.  Guess which one actually had sex and which one did not…

Thoughts

At least four different sex scenes in this episode.  What’s interesting is how Kuzu no Honkai is using sex scenes to tell part of the story and the character motivations.  That’s an adult way of story telling.  Nicely played.  Nice writing.

The writing is so good and keeps me going even when I’m not crazy about what is happening on screen.

Compelling stuff.  Compelling characters, story and directing.  Might be a train wreck in the making for the characters.  Might not be.  Who knows right now.  But hard not to keep watching to see what happens…


The music teacher, Minagawa-sensei,was a real piece of work.  Turns out that not only is she fooling around with men a lot, she gets off more in exploiting other females than she does the actual sex.  My new nickname for her is Queen NTR Bitch….

To be honest, Kuzu no Honkai seems more ecchi than it really is.  It’s pretty much all story and character driven and tastefully done.  Not much pandering.  A better tag might be smut the way some anime and manga sites used to define it for seinen and josei titles.  Still sexual though…

With characters this messed up, who knows what’s gonna happen next?

What a tangled web Kuzu no Honkai weaves.

There is a whole lot of seinen going on…

It’s a love polygon.  Of unrequited love.  Every which direction.  Every which way…

Production values are high.  Nicely so.  Nice artwork, writing and direction.  Nothing comes across as too generic, especially the characters.  Multi-layered.  Complex.  With both positive and negative emotions.  Some nice dialogue too.  (Which is not included since I am using Leopard Raws for my reviews.)

Horny teenagers.  Full of hormones.  Who don’t like themselves very much.  And pine for a love that they can never have.  Yet are intelligent and thoughtful.  Even if they can’t control how they feel and act.

Definitely not an anime for everyone.  Especially if you don’t like angst and drama with your ecchi.  But if you’re an ecchi fan and you want to see see a little more “action” than most anime shows this season, you might want to check Kuzu no Honkai out.
