The Masamune-kun Revenge series was originally launched by Takeoka and Tiv (Heaven’s Memo Pad) in the Ichijinsha’s Monthly Comic Rex back in 2012. The story has been described by Seven Seas Entertainment who license the manga in North America 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 re-emerges 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. Now, Masamune-kun is ready to confront the girl who bullied him so many years ago and humiliate her at last. But will revenge be as sweet as he thought?
This week saw the official website launched to announce that the Masamune-kun Revenge Manga by Hazuki Takeoka and Korean artist Tiv’s will be adapted for a television anime.
