Synopsis

As a child, Masamune Makabe once suffered greatly at the hands of a wealthy and beautiful girl named Aki Adagaki, who nicknamed him "Piggy" due to his chubby appearance. Seeking revenge against his tormentor, Masamune works hard to improve himself and returns as an incredibly handsome, albeit narcissistic, high school student. When he encounters Aki once again, he is prepared to exact vengeance.

With the aid of the rich girl's maid, Yoshino Koiwai, Masamune slowly begins to build his relationship with Aki, intending to break her heart when the time is right. However, as his friendship with Aki begins to grow, Masamune starts to question the objectives of his devious plans, and if bringing them to fruition is what his heart truly desires.

Masamune-kun suffers from an interesting phenomenon, something I like to call the "Guilty Crown Effect". At the beginning, we start with a very unique plot with tons of potential, and several different characters with what looks like room for development. However, after a short feeling of general oddness it takes an absolute dive into the abyss.

In the beginning, there are several very interesting characters. Our hero is very handsome, but also extremely narcissistic. Our heroine is beautiful, but a terrible tsundere. As they draw closer together, we see that there is some depth to these characters that is making their interactions more interesting. The side characters are slowly introduced, most of them contributing an interesting and unique something to the plot.

The first few chapters are quite good, and set it up for an excellent story. As the manga continues, there begins to be a slight air of indecision, as if the author doesn't know where to go from the beginning. Characters will have important dialogue or realizations, that will then be completely forgotten by the next chapter. In spite of this I foolishly kept reading.

There was an important reveal about one of the characters, and the manga looked like within a few chapters it would reach a very satisfactory ending. And that is where everything went to absolute hell. For absolutely NO reason, new characters and a terrible plot began to be introduced. The only possible reason for this that I can think of is that the author realized he wasn't quite ready to butcher this cash milking machine.

I, being young and naive, continued to read, still holding on to that desperate hope that somehow this would all fix itself. Alas, I just got to watch my heart be broken further as the story continued to sink into the dregs of manga that exists as some sort of capitalistic, never-ending hell. Like someone in an abusive relationship, I just kept thinking that maybe next time it will be different. Spoilers: it wasn't. I eventually dropped it.

I rated this a 2. Some people may think that this is harsh, but stories like this are far worse to me than any "Mars of Destruction" catastrophe. I can easily detect poor writing, but I can't detect good writing that becomes terrible. Maybe some lucky souls are capable of sensing this sort of thing before it comes to pass, but this review is for everyone else. I implore you, in the name of good stories everywhere, do not read this manga. If you're so desperate to read something, read the first five chapters or so and then make up your own ending. Literally anything would be better.

TL;DR Starts promising, goes to shite.

The boy-against-girl showdown in this manga makes it much more interesting than your average boy-meets-girl stories. Through the course of the story, there is good development between the protagonist and the lead female.

The factor that had drawn me in to reading this manga was obviously the art. It is perfectly drawn, not too flashy, and the way how each character is drawn to make them look extremely attractive is so appealing to the eyes.

I liked the characters of the story. I find the female lead as one of the most adorable tsunderes I've ever encountered. There is a significant level of Aki being dere and read more

I stumbled across this manga quite by accident a while ago, but I found the premise rather interesting. So I decided to give it a go, and I was quite happy that I did. At the time of writing, only 5 chapters of this manga have been released, but I think this is sufficient to produce a fairly decent evaluation of it.

1. Story: 8

I like the premise of getting back at your childhood bully, but having read the specific bullying scenes, I did not think the MC had to be as fixated on his past as he is. Regardless, the story picks up after that read more

Masamune-kun No Revenge is about the main protagonist, Makabe Masamune, who wants to take revenge on his childhood ... enemy? Friend? called Akagami Aki. No one shall ever know. Anyway, this Masamune stayed with his grandpa to train for his revenge, and became a handsome narcissist, ready to take revenge on Aki.

Story:6
The story has a low score as it is extremely generic. Handsome guy says, I'm going to make you fall in love with me" and blah blah blah. I feel like his reason to get back at Aki, the enemy/love interest, was crappy. Move ON, please. However, the author realised that the reason read more
