An intriguing first half

Love Wedge 1 feels pretty ahead of its time. I feel like it's more than just a gay anime though (which is admittedly the main part that feels revolutionary by the standards of the early 1990s), as there's a really interesting futuristic world established here. It doesn't build that world seamlessly, but you get the general gist of what it's all about, even if I wonder whether the divide between light haired and dark haired people would be rendered obsolete by hair dye (maybe it dyed out in the future hah hah).

Still, the idea of dividing a society this way, having everyone be men, and the way the different groups treat each other... it's all quite interesting. Might well be a shame that this story only lasts two instalments because I kind of dig what it's going for and what it managed to establish.
