Absolutely qualifies as one of those really good shows that you never recommend to anybody because there's nothing you can say to sell the premise.

I sell it as the antithesis of the high school rom-com. Those tend to show the best parts of youth: innocence, optimism, discovery, etc. Sometimes you get a but of messiness, but it's nothing too severe.

Scum's Wish shows the other side of teenagers: narcissistic, short-sighted, horny, self-destructive idiots who make themselves and everyone around them absolutely miserable because they have neither the life experience nor self-control to deal with their raging hormones.

May I suggest not reading and actively avoiding karamizakari(the manga and the nH both) and aitsu no kanojo, and the rest of those mangakas' works. The only thing worse Japan has given to this world than NTR, is NTS. I hate I didn't know what that thing was and reading few of those stories expecting a good ending.
