Never heard of this before but I really like that synopsis and the art looks fab, sounds like it could be a lot of fun. Another series to add to the 'to buy' list. The amount keeps increasing.

I remember reading the first few chapters a while back (was it the first 2 or 3? I can't recall precisely) and thought that the art was "nice, but familiar;" when I'm looking at that art style, I can almost remember a different manga who had a very similar art style, but I can't remember which. And it isn't from the creators of this one... Oh, and I was also somewhat impressed that it wasn't a manga adaptation to a LN series, but an original story, because these, more often than not, mangas with an angsty high-schooler male lead are usually LN adaptations.

From the pages I looked at,the art style is kinda similar to SNAFU. This sounds like fun.I'd probably give a read. |

Well, 2016 looks like a year where I will have a number of manga titles finishing.
Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer (might actually finish this year), Inu x Boku SS, Demon from Afar, Evergreen, My Little Monster, and (probably) OreImo:Kuroneko. Since 2 of those are Seven Seas titles, I think I have found a replacement for one of those free spots. I've not seen many series with a similar premise. Hell, the only one I've read that is similar, is quite new (in terms of getting an English release). That being Komomo's Confiserie. Though, I feel that the way they'll handle the revenge will be different, seeing as Komomo is a shojo manga. |

REVENGE, revenge. Always liked that in A Fish Called Wanda.
Sounds interesting. I shall take a look. |

So... is this a gender-swap of Girlsaurus basically?

Looking at the synopsis, the similarity I see between this and Girl Saurus is that a character loses weight. Where's the sweet, sweet revenge? I mean, the Girl Saurus MC becomes afraid of women...which doesn't seem to be the case here.

MC was bullied by lead female for being fat & unpopular, time-leap a few years later and the cast is in their high-school years (as always) and the formerly-bullied lead male is a handsome lad with good looks & grades. His revenge is to make the bully female to fall for him, and then reject her. |

After the whole Jared scandal, didn't think I'd see him pop up here.
I'm confused as to why you've written the synopsis for Masamune-kun's Revenge...because this is what I've read for Girl Saurus:
As I mentioned, weight loss is the only similarity I see in the synopsis. Unless he joins the boxing club, and then plans to get revenge on the girl...while being afraid to get near females? |
