The Masamune-kun’s Revenge R anime has received a lengthy two-and-a-half-minute trailer ahead of its July 3 Japanese premiere. The trailer includes a preview of the opening song “Please Please” by Ayaka Ohashi.
Masamune-kun’s Revenge R, the second season of 2017’s Masamune-kun’s Revenge, was originally meant to premiere in April. The anime is an adaptation of the manga written by Hazuki Takeoka and drawn by Tiv, which ran from 2012 to 2018 in Ichijinsha’s Monthly Comic Rex. Eleven tankoubon volumes were published under the Rex Comics label, with the final volume serving as an afterstory.
Seven Seas describes the manga as:
As an overweight child, Makabe Masamune was mercilessly teased and bullied by one particular girl, Adagaki Aki. Determined to one day exact his revenge upon her, Makabe begins a rigorous regimen of self-improvement and personal transformation.
Years later, Masamune reemerges as a new man. Handsome, popular, with perfect grades and good at sports, Masamune-kun transfers to Aki’s school, and is unrecognizable to her.
