While the superb Chinese Boys’ Love donghua Scumbag System is currently streaming on WeTV, if you prefer to watch your animated series via Crunchyroll, you will be happy to know Scumbag System is now streaming on that platform as well.
All 10 episodes are available to watch from today but, unlike on WeTV where they are free-to-watch, Crunchyroll has them behind their paywall so only accessible by Premium members.
Production details for Scumbag System donghua series
The Chinese donghua is adapted from the popular danmei novel series The Scum Villain’s Self-saving System written by Mo Xiang Tong Xiu and illustrated by Xiao Tong Kong.
Seven Seas Entertainment publishes the historical isekai series in English, with all four volumes of the 4-volume series now out.
They describe its plot like this:
Half-demon Luo Binghe rose from humble beginnings and a tortured past to become unrivaled in strength and beauty. With his dominion over both the Human and Demon Realms and his hundreds-strong harem, he is truly the most powerful protagonist…in a trashy webnovel series!
At least, that’s what Shen Yuan believes as he finishes reading the final chapter in Proud Immortal Demon Way.
But when a bout of rage leads to his sudden death, Shen Yuan is reborn into the world of the novel in the body of Shen Qingqiu – the beautiful but cruel teacher of a young Luo Binghe.
While Shen Qingqiu may have the incredible power of a cultivator, he is destined to be horrifically punished for crimes against the protagonist.
The new Shen Qingqiu now has only one course of action: get into Luo Binghe’s good graces before the young man’s rise to power or suffer the awful fate of a true scum villain!
The Scumbag System donghua (aka Chuan Shu Zijiu Zhinan) is animated by Chinese animation studio Djinn Power (The Rich God) and produced by Tencent, iQIYI and Sony Music Solutions.
The donghua also has a Japanese dub, although Crunchyroll is only streaming the original Chinese language version with English subtitles.
