Masamune-kun's Revenge is currently streaming in Australia on Crunchyroll, and in the US on Crunchyroll, and it delivers exactly the kind of comedy that earns a loyal following. The 2-season run is exactly the right length for what it is doing. An 8/10 rating says what the writing already makes obvious: this one works. Natsuki Hanae sets the tone, and the rest of the cast matches it scene for scene. Start it on Crunchyroll whenever you need something guaranteed to land.

There is a reason Masamune-kun's Revenge keeps coming up in conversation. Masamune-kun's Revenge does what great comedies rarely manage — it is actually funny, consistently, across the whole run. "I've returned to this town for revenge!" Eight years ago, Makabe Masamune, a weak and chubby boy, was harshly rejected by the beautiful Adagaki Aki. Now, he's lost a ton of weight, changed his name, and returned as a handsome teenage boy... All to make the "Brutal Princess" Aki fall in love with him so that he can reject her just as harshly as she did. The chemistry Natsuki Hanae and Ayaka Ohashi bring to it does a lot of the heavy lifting. It ran for 2 seasons (2017–2023), and the writing holds up across every one of them. The real test of any comedy is whether it is still funny once you know all the jokes, and Masamune-kun's Revenge holds up on rewatch in a way that separates it from one-off curiosities. The consistency throughout is what elevates it — not every moment is the best, but none of them are a reason to stop watching.

For viewers who want something light without wanting something stupid, Masamune-kun's Revenge respects your intelligence. The tonal similarities to We Never Learn: BOKUBEN are real, though Masamune-kun's Revenge carves out its own identity quickly. Best experienced as a single, sustained watch if your schedule allows. Natsuki Hanae sets the tone, but the supporting cast is where a lot of the best moments come from. A reliable pick for any night you want quality comedy without the homework.
