Scums wish is something that'll make you feel. Whether is be disgust, anger, sadness, the result is a feeling that will carry on towards the end of the manga.

Story: The story is well written for the most part. The premise is unique, and the circumstances needed to be overcome are interesting, as well as emotionally charged. The story effortlessly brings in a tangled sensation of feelings, without getting too messy elsewhere. There's a great sense of pacing, despite the emotional tension throughout.

Art: The art is awesome. Granted, its been a while since I read the manga, but I remember nothing but amazing panels and great use of space.

Characters: The characters aren't necessarily meant to be likeable, but they're real. They have an unbelievable raw edge that screams unrefined and almost idiotic sometimes, but it just enforces how real the characters are. The characters embody a sense of emotional tension about as well as they cause it.

This manga found a spot in my heart, due to how well it handled itself, all the way to the ending. I'd wholehearted recommend it, if anyone is in the mood for an emotional roller coaster.
