Scum's Wish (Japanese: クズの本懐 Hepburn: Kuzu no Honkai?) is a Japanese manga series by Mengo Yokoyari. It has been serialized in Square Enix's seinen manga magazine Big Gangan since 2012, and has been collected in six tankōbon volumes. An anime television series adaptation by Lerche began airing from January 12, 2017 on Fuji TV's Noitamina block.

Popular highschool freshman Hanabi Yasuraoka has been in love with her older childhood friend, now her homeroom teacher Narumi Kanai. But upon seeing Narumi's eyes after seeing the new music teacher Akane Minagawa, Hanabi instantly knows that he is in love with Akane. That's when she meets Mugi Awaya, another popular student who is in love with Akane, who was his tutor at middle school. The two made a pact and form a fake relationship to satisfy each other's 'emptiness' and to not genuinely fall in love with each other. They become a couple later in the series.

Mengo Yokoyari began serializing the manga in Square Enix's Big Gangan magazine in 2012. The series is published digitally in English by Crunchyroll Manga, and in print by Yen Press. It has been announced that the manga will end in Q2 2017.

An anime television series adaptation was announced in March 2016 to air on Fuji TV's Noitamina block on January 12, 2017. The series is being directed by Masaomi Ando and produced by Lerche, with series composition by Makoto Uezu, character designs by Keiko Kurosawa and music by Masaru Yokoyama. The series will run for 12 episodes released across six BD/DVD volumes. The opening song titled "Uso no Hibana" (嘘の火花?, "Spark of A Lie") sung by 96neko and the ending theme titled "Heikōsen" (平行線?, "Pararell Line") is sung by Sayuri.
