Yes, I don't have dbus installed. Nothing I have installed has a
dependency on it that is Depends: or more important. I don't install
Recommends: and actively remove them unless other installed packages
declare a (Pre-)Depends:
Based on my understanding of the relevant section[1] in the Debian
Policy, I would argue that systemd-sysv needs a Depends: dbus.

The Recommends: that systemd declares looks fine as I have not observed
any other breakage.
FTR, after I install dbus, I get
$ sudo shutdown -r 04:00
Shutdown scheduled for Sat 2018-05-12 04:00:00 JST, use 'shutdown -c' to
cancel.
Hope this helps,
