1* {{Anvilicious}}: Bullying and rape are '''bad.''' [[CaptainObviousAesop Not that you weren't aware of this.]] In a minor scale, but still relevant, the gang rape scenes, {{Deconstruct|edTrope}} the {{Netorare}} concept, showing how utterly [[SickAndWrong WRONG]] is.
2* ArcFatigue: Is [[spoiler:Ms. Aoshika]] still being raped? Yes, and we all want it over with. And only at chapter 97 does [[spoiler:Inugami finally reached Aoshika]].
3* BrokenBase: While initially popular due to the ''{{Manga/Akumetsu}}'' connection, the constant GratuitousRape has ''not'' endeared this series to American anime fandom.
4* CompleteMonster: [[BigBad Haguro Dou]] starts the series as a [[TeensAreMonsters brutal delinquent]] and {{Yakuza}} heir who thinks nothing of carving a cross into the back of the young werewolf [[HeroicNeutral Akira Inugami]] for defying his authority. Haguro murders the twin brother of one unstable student and manipulates the latter into a shooting rampage at school that kills numerous students and teachers. Steadily growing more and more unhinged and [[{{Yandere}} obsessed with Akira]] upon learning he is a werewolf, Haguro [[BadBoss violently assaults his loyal subordinate Chiba]] for the crime of simply talking to Akira, [[TongueTrauma biting out Chiba's tongue]] and [[DepravedBisexual raping]] and beating him. After killing a revived Chiba, Haguro blasts the school with a grenade launcher himself before learning that Akira is in love with his teacher Akiko Aoshika. Haguro promptly has Aoshika kidnapped, rapes her and allows his men to gang-rape her after injecting her with a [[PsychoSerum drug]] to force her to enjoy it to break her further while uploading a video of it to the internet to permanently destroy her reputation to lure Akira to his lair and kill and cannibalize him. Obsessed with [[InferioritySuperiorityComplex proving himself Akira's superior]], Haguro represents [[HumansAreTheRealMonsters the absolute worst humanity has to offer]].
5* EsotericHappyEnding:
6** Aoshika is in Alaska, hanging with the wolves and other wolf men. [[spoiler:Inugami wakes up in a research lab, his body still maimed from his encounter with Haguro. Somehow, their spirits end together.]]
7** It's also (seemingly) implied that [[spoiler:Inugami's sheer force of will is going to help him escape the research lab, and that it is his "destiny" to reunite with Aoshika.]]
8** All of this is not even getting to the fact that literally everyone who had ever been involved with Inugami, from Aoshika, to Ryuuko, to all of Inugami's student friends, to Aoshika's fellow teachers, end the manga worse off than they were before, with physical, mental, emotional and psychological scars that will follow them forever, with Ryuuko in particular [[spoiler:having apparently gone murderously insane]]. Only [[spoiler:Aoshika has any chance at happiness, and that's assuming Inugami reaches her.]]
9%%* HoYay: [[spoiler:Haguro]] takes it to [[NightmareFuel nightmarish]] levels toward Inugami [[spoiler:and Chiba.]]
10* MemeticMutation:
11** ''Desire for Hugs.''
12** The manga is known as "Rape Namek", after the infamous padding of the ''Dragon Ball Z'' anime, for how infamous its prolonged rape scenes were. Other series that verge into gratuitous rape are also commonly called this in turn.
13* MemeticRapist: Haguro. [[spoiler: Not so memetic now.]]
14* MoralEventHorizon:
15** It's difficult to find one for Haguro Dou, but [[spoiler:beating Chiba within an inch of his life, biting off his tongue, and then raping him for good measure]] would be a good start.
16** Recent events have made sure he grabs the line, beats it to within an inch of its life, dances over its body. And then rapes it. [[spoiler: Just ask Aoshika.]]
17* {{Narm}}:
18** Sometimes, the dramatic words said in giant block text come across as rather funny than serious.
19** There's a scene in which Aoshika has a spiritual moment where her soul becomes in touch with nature... and she's completely naked. Since her chest size is incredibly large, this scene appears rather quirky, rather than meaningful.
20** Also, how everyone speaks, "yer", "ya", "fark" and many speech patterns, they ruin the effect. We know they're teenagers and try to sound cool, but it gets laughably bad in such a serious manga such as this. Moreso if you're not a native speaker and English is your second language.
21* NauseaFuel: We ''may'' be able to handle one or two chapters of [[spoiler: horrific rape]], but over ''ten chapters of it??!!'' Oh my!
22* NightmareFuel: [[NightmareFuel/WolfGuyWolfenCrest Has its own page.]]
23* ShockingMoments: We can argue that the HSQ steadily began to rise when [[spoiler: Inugami got stabbed by Ryuuko but commenced asskicking his way to Haguro's hideout despite not having the a full moon to power him - ''but he broke all the damn rules in the friggin' book.'']] The HSQ has reached its maximum in chapter 109-110 when [[spoiler: Inugami is getting practically dismembered by Haguro, but not only manages to transform into his wolf form, but into a ''pure white wolf'' that was pretty much [[PowerOfLove powered by love,]] in which he finally kills Haguro, but not before making his psyche totally crumble when he has a quasi- "FreakinessShame" moment when he sees Inugami in his white wolf form.]] Phew.
24* TooBleakStoppedCaring: This manga is set in such a ridiculously DarkerAndEdgier CrapsackWorld, uses heavy themes in such exploitative manners and has characters ''so'' into BlackAndWhiteMorality... that many readers have simply given up on.
25%%* TheUntwist: Was anyone else not shocked that [[spoiler:Akira Jin]] was a werewolf?
