Princess Principal Crown Handler- CHAPTER 1

 

After watching the first season of ‘Princess Principal’, I was pretty excited for even more adventures involving the ‘principal team’. Though I was a little worried that the team would be officially broken up thanks to the events of the final episodes of the show. Thankfully Ange, Princess, Dorothy, Beatrice and Chise are all still together!

So let’s talk about this movie!

‘Princess Principal Crown Handler- CHAPTER 1’ is about the ‘Principal Team’ being brought in to uncover the identity of a mole living in the castle. The mole is quickly uncovered and it turns out his name is ‘Bishop’ and he’s the queens chamberlain. After making contact Ange is surprised to learn that Bishop already knows Ange’s true identity. Now the girls must work for Bishop while uncovering his ‘secret’.

So the first thing I want to mention is how this film starts. We see a man getting arrested and then he gets broken out of jail thanks to the ‘Principal Team’. I really love how they go about doing it as well. I won’t spoil what happens exactly, but it’s actually the only real ‘action’ sequence we get in the entire film.

That’s not a complaint either. I actually love the cat and mouse game that takes place during this movie. Watching the girls do their usual espionage thing, making contact with the mole only to have the rug pulled out from underneath them is pretty exciting.

What really makes this whole ‘rug pull’ thing even more interesting and exciting, is the fact that Bishop pretty much holds all the cards from the very start. Not only is he the mole the girls are looking for, but he’s also got a very big ‘secret’ that the girls are looking for. To make matters worse, he even uncovers everyone’s identities.

We also learn that Ange and Princess both have sentimental feelings when it comes to Bishop. I’m not spy myself, but I’m guessing sentiments for other spies isn’t a good thing.

Still with that said, there are some really fun moments in this movie. The action scene at the very beginning was fun. There was a pretty fun moment involving Chise driving and I also loved how unexcited everyone was when they had to go through old newspapers and books looking for things.

So with all that said, I do recommend checking out this movie! Especially if you’re a fan of the first series.

Thanks for reading everyone!
Take care!
