(Bad) Saezuru Tori wa Habatakanai: The Clouds Gather

Movie in one sentence:
Sexual abuse is par for the course.

Movie in more sentences:
An ex-cop in need of money after being released from jail becomes the bodyguard of a sex-obsessed, homosexual mob boss who seems all too eager to get with him on his first day.

Despite his boss having a routine of leisurely giving himself away to other men, and he himself was left impotent ever since he witnessed his sister's sexual assault, he feels romantically drawn to him and holds a great amount of respect for the character that no one else respects.


Absolute shit.
I tried giving it a chance; there were people claiming there was a story worth sitting through, but it was horrid.

Whores make for unrelatable characters and there was not a speck of romance to be found in this. Why did this stale-faced bodyguard like his grumpy slutbag of a boss, even. He's only remarked how "beautiful" he is -no further clarification how so- and other compliments that don't even slightly apply to this character.
There was no chemistry. The last few seconds tried to evoke some kind of emotion and it was laughable.


The mob storylines were boring, didn't even care a little bit, the topic of sexual abuse at the hands of a family member was used twice as cheap character flavour, and everything else in the anime consisted out of cringy, half-hearted sex scenes, so no thanks, never again.
Don't bother giving it a hate watch, it is a true and honest waste of time.
