Now, the two creators are reuniting to launch a sequel, and Masamune-kun's Revenge – Engagement will go live very soon!
According to a recent update, Comic Howl will be publishing the big sequel starting April 26th. Masamune-kun's Revenge – Engagement will take place years after volume 11 of the original series.

As you can see, this cute sequel will continue the romance set up in Masamune-kun's Revenge, and fans are eager to see how its time skip plays out. After all, Masamune and Aki came together despite a lot of history and turbulent emotions. As young adults, the couple will be faced with a new challenge as long-distance relationships are anything but easy to manage. But with Yoshino's help, Masamune should be able to keep hold of Aki.
Of course, this sequel is going live at the perfect time considering this year's anime schedule. In July 2023, Masamune-kun's Revenge will return to television with season two. This debut follows a few years after Masamune-kun's Revenge dropped its first season. Silver Link premiered its adaptation in March 2017, so season two has been a long time coming.
