Masamune-kun’s revenge is based on Hazuki Takeoka and illustrator Tiv’s manga of the same name. Mirai Minato (Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya) is directing the series at Silver Link, with Yuki Sawairi providing character designs. Michiko Yokote (Cute High Earth Defense Club LOVE!, Genshiken) is in charge of series composition.

Crunchyroll is currently streaming Masamune-kun’s Revenge as a subtitled simulcast. Sentai Filmworks currently holds the rights to the original manga.

Funimation describes the series as:

As a child, Masamune Makabe was mercilessly teased about his weight and cruelly nicknamed “Pig’s Foot” by a young girl named Aki Adagaki. Years later, Masamune continues to hold resentment and decides to seek revenge against his tormenter. Now, handsome and in top shape, he returns to exact vengeance on Aki! But as he gets closer to her, he finds his heart desires something other than revenge.
