The beautiful brat with the heart of gold."
It's honestly sad to see how many people dislike this anime. I've watched a lot of romance series over the years, and while there are plenty that I love, most of them tend to follow the same formula. You can usually predict exactly what's going to happen after a few episodes. That's where Masamune-kun's Revenge stands out for me.
This season took me on an absolute roller coaster of emotions. One minute I was laughing at the ridiculous situations the characters found themselves in, the next I was frustrated, stressed, or desperately hoping things would work out. The story constantly kept me guessing, and that's something I really value in a romance anime.
What makes this season so good is how much the characters grow. The misunderstandings, ins…

Had I been 5 years younger, I'd have been kicking my feet for a conclusion such as this one.
Masamune Kun's Revenge R handles almost every element of its predecessor in a way that feels more rewarding and fulfilling.
Much of my gripe with the previous season lay in how they handled the side cast (specifically the Aki Wagon and Kanetsugu). I will say the story "solves" this problem but not in an effective way. Unfortunately, it seems to me the author backed out of any ideas they had in mind and just cut it short with the most "peaceful" way possible, leading to a half-assed resolution. Even as someone who hated that introduction, the solution was just as abrupt.
This season does suffer the consequence of following up on the first season. Personally, I feel as if the author wrote themsel…

I was a bit skeptical going into this season, but oh man, it delivered.
First off, let's talk about Masamune and Aki's relationship. I was shipping them hard in Season 1, but this season took it to a whole new level. Their interactions were so tender and sweet, I couldn't help but squeal with delight. And that confession scene? _swoon_
But what really impressed me was the character development. Masamune finally learns to let go of his revenge obsession and focus on his own growth. And Aki... oh man, Aki's backstory had me tearing up. I never thought I'd feel so much empathy for the ice queen, but this season made me understand her so much better.
The supporting cast was also on point. Yoshino and Neko's friendship goals are everything, and I loved how they supported Masamune through thi…

1. Uninspired Plot
This sequel seems to lack fresh and surprising elements in its storyline. The comedic and romantic situations appear repetitive from the first season without any significant development. This makes the story boring and lacks appeal for those who have followed the first part.
2. Underdeveloped Characters
Despite their potential, the characters in "Masamune-kun no Revenge R" do not receive adequate development. Masamune and Aki retain their old personalities, showing no substantial progress or change. This renders the relationship between the two main characters dull and uninteresting.
3. Animation and Music
While the visuals and music of the show are not bad, they are not enough to redeem a weak storyline. The animation remains beautiful and the music is pleasant, bu…

This anime definitely gets more hate than it deserves. If you’re looking for a woman hating anime this isn’t it and I think that’s where a lot of the negative reviews come from. If you’re looking for a romance anime with a different story than most and some decent twists this is a great option. The characters are fairly compelling and there’s less mindlessly time wasting tropes than most romance anime. The art style and animation are also solid. All in all I think it’s definitely worth a watch for anyone looking to switch things up!! I’ll definitely miss these characters.

English.
A second season that exploits the main idea much better and focuses all the problems so that they are resolved here, it is clear that this will be the last season and I think they brought all the problems to super interesting points, from ending the revenge to knowing which is what our protagonist feels, most love series will not know how to handle these themes and only make the girls in the series fall in love with the protagonist but here they knew how to handle this in the best possible way, with a super interesting plot and stopping dragging out the main mystery of the series and fixing things by talking directly to each other.
I think the authors did the best honest series and gave it a super good and interesting ending, showing us the perspectives of all our protagonists and…

Its sad to see that people actually dont like this anime. I like stories that are crazy and unpredictable. I feel like all the other romance anime ive watched have all been so boring and predictable. Dont get me wrong, there are still many other romance anime out there that I love along with Masamune kun no revenge, but to me this one is special. Another romance anime that I really loved was ao haru ride and I feel like Masamune kun no revenge has got to be in my top 10 list of my favourite romance anime. And the ending? Simply perfect! All I can hope for is that I get to see more of masamune and aki after they started dating.

Improved Plots and Comedic Story
Masamune-kun no Revenge R, the reinvigorated rendition of the popular romantic comedy anime, elevates the narrative with enhanced plots and a refined comedic touch.

The emotion most prevalent throughout my watchtime of this show was most definitely confusion. It feels like some parts are too short, others way too long and some parts just shouldn't be in there. Some characters act so odd it's just ridiculous, it's like they outsourced their thought process to a primate in their local zoo. The french arc was so weird with pacing and how it started and ended, just nothing flowed well and then they just abruptly ended interaction with the 2 french characters after like 4 episodes, made no sense maybe the arc in the manga was good but idk.
The character decision making and portrayal was just downright devious. I think 90% of characters can just be grouped as annoying or confusing or both at once, also 3 fan club members just exist in several scenes maybe…

It's a rare thing to see a second season of a anime be a true sequel in the sense that it takes its characters and settings into new territory and also be a romance anime that brings us a satisfying ending to what was setup before. It feels surreal.
Honestly, consider me surprised. I half-expected things to go largely in the same vein as last season, as in slow, back-and-forths, and ladened with barbed dialogue. Shockingly, however, this season jumped right into the plot and in less than half the episodes already provided resolutions (firm and temp) to many of the overarching questions and problems posed last season. Instantly the whole thing with Gasou is settled, the whole "why can't Aki recognize Masamune" thing, and even cuts to the chase on Masamune's whole twisted personality. Just…

That was really poorly done for a finale - 4
As the title says, this could've been written alot better especially for how long we waited for this which was 6 YEARS.
To start off we had 2 filler episodes which you can skip because it has near no impact to the story later on.
Then there's the whole Gasou Arc which was very swiftly dealt with eventhough she was meant to be the big antagonist of this story separating Masamune from Aki. Like this was meant to be a big issue for Masamune to have to get around but instead she was easily dealt with and her ulterior motives only come about after the arc which was again really disappointing as this could have been written to be so much more rewarding, but instead it's swept under the carpet.
Then we begin the main arc where Masamune gives Aki h…

7/10
+Unique spin on the vanilla “will they won’t they” story
+Solid plot twists that keep viewer engaged
-Shallow character interactions can be a turn off for some
-Certain plot threads are tied up prematurely
-Faster pace is not utilized well and wastes time on fluff
Season 2 continues Masamune and Aki’s story towards a hurried conclusion. The faster pacing helps the narrative from being drawn out too much but there are several missing character beats and plot points tied up off screen. Masamune-kun no Revenge could have been a sweet buddy love story but without well defined themes and character beats it’s hard to see why we should root for them in the first place. Their chemistry is so likeable that you may be willing to excuse its shortcomings. The ending provides a satisfying conc…

This second season really has a lot of surprises, all the mysteries that haven't been revealed in the previous season, many things are shown here, and everything is neatly arranged so that it doesn't make things strange to the storyline.
It's just that what's more surprising is the difference in Art Style, even though I've checked that the Studio is still the same, but why is the style of the illustrations different? Especially for Fujinomiya Neko it looks very strange compared to the previous season, but for the next few episodes it looks like there be improvements, I hope that in Blue Ray there will be improvements to the illustrations that look strange, not only the illustrations but the coloring is also different from the previous season, but long- It's taking a long time to get used…

So this Series has been a wild ride from happy moments all the way to very sad moments where its just a wild ride all the time
In this season 2 of masamune-kun no Revenge
Also called masamune-kun no Revenge R, Has been very good it had some scenes that were very wierd and sometimes didnt make sence but the series itself had my attention all the way from season 1 episode 1 to now.
The voice actors have done a very good job and deserve alot of attention.
there were an episode or some scenes where it didnt make sence to have them but it was still nice in a way to have them
Overall i loved this Romcom series and i can't wait to see if theres more.
This can deffinently be reccomended to everybody whole likes drama romcom's

I loved Masamune-kun no Revenge. I read the manga over and over again. The story is unique, fresh and unpredictable. It's quite enjoyable to read. I think most stories in that generation more or less like that. Therefore, I am very much looking forward to the continuation of the anime which in the previous season ended up hanging.
But once again, the studio crushed my hopes. There have been several times when anime that I've been waiting for were made carelessly. All the good scenes I was looking forward to were done half-heartedly. I started to question why they decided to take on this project if they weren't serious about it.
The art is ordinary, more like bad. The way the characters move and behave looks very stiff and irrational. Although some scenes are forced to use the images in…

Alright, Masamune-kun no Revenge R was great up until episode ten.
The last two episodes killed it's "steam" and some of my enjoyment.
It's like a bait & switch sorta thing. You go in expecting something cliche, then get played like a fiddle, then watch the expected outcome with a more grimy ending then I personally would want to enjoy.
This show is a Harem with the fixed elements of Aki and Masamune.
The others don't matter at all within the story, not to mention the anime does a horrible job of wanting you to side with Yoshino or Neko, since they both, maybe, get 10 minutes of memorable air time in the whole season, and none of it really encourages you to like them as a possible match-up. Not to mention characters that have zero use to the story after their arc. As they say "The game…

This man Masamune is a walking contradiction, holy sh8t, don't recommend for people who hate idiots, similar to the guy from Fuuka.
He became a woss and a pssy from the first season for some reason, and didn't know what he was doing with his life midway through this anime.
this is so far my 2nd least liked anime of all time, the story and his character development basically made absolutely no sense
Is the story unique? If it was predictable, did you enjoy it anyway because you like this genre/set-up? no
Do you think the art style is fitting for the story? idk
Were the characters well-rounded? Did they have flaws and strengths, or were they unusually strong/smart/stupid? very stupid
Did the characters react to situations and events in a realistic way? NO!
Do you think others will enjoy/…

The anime had a very promising start in terms of romance, but also a bit strange with the introduction of a caricatured, flashy character, surrounded by unlikely things. That said, it didn't focus much on this secondary story about the Frenchwoman Muriel and at one point left this plot completely aside. Another positive point of this beginning is that it made rapid progress in overcoming the Kanetsugu problem, resolving it in a very satisfactory way. Kanetsugu had been introduced at the end of the previous season, being hated by the public, and causing damage to the experience of almost everyone who only watched the first season.
Generally, I have no problems with works divided into seasons, but not in this case. The anime presents significant changes in the perception of several events t…

Masamune-kun's Revenge IS BACK? NANI DA HECK!?
Out of all of the past anime that has since got revived for another season years down the road, there were two that got greenlit after the same amount of time: Isekai Smartphone (which first aired in Summer 2017, then its sequel in the last season), and Masamune-kun no Revenge, which first aired all the way back in Winter 2017. The prequel presented us with the anime adaptation up to Volume 6 of the manga, and the sequel is finally here to finish where the anime left off with the remaining volumes 7 to 10. That's 6.5 years of waiting for what seems like an eternity, especially with what the "R" in Season 2 is supposed to mean. No spoiler, whatever words that you can think of that start with that letter, you're probably right or wrong, the cor…

April 1, 2022. It’s April Fools’ Day in Japan, and we’re all rolling our eyes at the 82392nd joke about No Game No Life Season 2 being announced, and I’m sure many were also thinking the Masamune-kun sequel was also fake. Turns out they trolled us hard, and here we are with Season 2 of the dumpster fire that is Masamune-kun’s Revenge. I hated Season 1 a lot, because I thought it could be good, but it just ruined every possible good, or heartfelt, emotional moment with some stupidity. Season 2 has these problems as well, but it turned out to be more entertaining this time around, due to the numerous twists that this anime throws at you. Feelings change, and the plot actually progressed quite a lot, and while the road was pretty rocky, it got some enjoyment out of me, and I’ll honestly take…
