Masamune-kun’s Revenge R: New Publication Date & Important Visual Revealed!

The news that Masamune-kun’s Revenge R would not be coming out this year was devastating to everyone. Since its 2017 premiere, a second season has been confirmed. Its original April arrival date was pushed back to July due to the COVID-19 scenario.

Fans are still anticipating the next season, however, because Masamune plans to plot once again during the class trip to Paris.

On Friday, the production team for Masamune-kun’s Revenge R unveiled a new commercial featuring a different primary visual. The promo announced the debut date of July 3 for the next season.

In this new 30-second clip, we get to see Masamune, Aki, Yoshino, and the recently debuted Muriel Besson, among the other important characters.

The following is the voice cast for Season 2. Many of the original cast members have returned for a second season.

In addition, the animation creation of the series will once again involve Studio Silver Link. The series is directed by Mirai Minato, and Michiko Yokote is writing the screenplays. The anime adaptation’s character designs were done by Yuki Sawairi.

Given that the first season covered roughly one-half of the canon material (six volumes), I am very much looking forward to this second season. There is no doubt that the remaining five will be covered this season. It hasn’t been confirmed, but it could also include the one-volume After School manga.

Masamune-kun’s Revenge

Originally published by Ichijinsha in the pages of Monthly Comic Rex Magazine from October 12 to June 2018, Masamune-kun’s Revenge is a manga by Hazuki Takeoka and Tiv. In 2017, a 12-episode anime adaptation premiered. In July of 2023, fans may expect to see season two.

Masamune, the protagonist, used to be overweight and was bullied by Aki Adagaki until he resolved to make a change. The next scene is him in high school, where he has transformed into a slender, studious athlete. Aki no longer recognizes him.

So, Masamune vows to get his revenge by having Aki fall in love with him and then refuse him.
