Masamune finally stops playing games with Aki, and the show stops pretending the revenge bit matters anymore. What's left is two people who actually want each other, built on a foundation of real character growth instead of tsundere loops. The France trip is an excuse to let them breathe, romance that moves forward instead of circling back to the same beats, with comedy that lands because it comes from actual chemistry, not tired setups.

Masamune Makabe was cruelly rejected by Aki Adagaki as a chubby child. Years later he has come back slim and handsome, still set on winning her heart so he can turn her down just as harshly. With the cultural festival over, his class heads to Paris, and he sees the trip as an ideal chance to finish his scheme. Before he can make his move, the pair run into Muriel Besson, a French otaku who dreams of drawing a romantic comedy manga. She wants Masamune as the model for her hero, and he grudgingly agrees, pulling Aki in as inspiration for the heroine. Meanwhile Kanetsugu Gasou is posing as Aki's childhood friend Masamune in order to deceive and exploit her. With rivals and confusion piling up, this second season of the comedy romance makes his revenge harder than ever.
