Although this was cheesy and cringey at times, I was strangely hooked and actually quite enjoyed watching this drama. I would recommend this if you don't want anything too serious, just something fun and anime-like.

I liked the way they introduced each team, the music and voiceover was fun.

Overall this was a strangely enjoyable drama. The best way to enjoy this is to detach real life completely from this, to see this a totally different world. I'm looking forward to the movie, hopefully we can find out more about the female lead.

To start, 'Prince of Legend' really isn't what I thought it would be, I thought there would have been deeper focus on more relationships, and perhaps a gay couple in there somewhere. Instead it just focusses on Nanuse Kanon, every single boy in the series it seems it focussed on her and her only, for whatever reason it may have; definitely cringey and put me off from watching it for a time.

Despite this, I would recommend this to those of you that want to see a bit of fun, competition between some rather attractive guys in rivaling schools, as well as to see the close connection that family and friends have.


P.S. I must admit though, what was keeping me going it this series was the hope that (before I knew of it) the half brothers would get together, obviously it never happened though.

Prepare for Cringe

If too cheesy, cringe and exaggerated acting is not your cup of tea; don't go for this series.

If you do watch this, please do not take the series seriously. It's there for a good laugh.

Watched this because all my favorite LDH (an agency in Japan) boys are in the series, especially for my oshi Kawamura Kazuma.

- Plot is mediocre
- The cast acting is really enjoyable. They're really good, they done a good job to pull off so many cringe scenes where you might end up face palming and questioning their doings.
- The series is a build up and introduction to each of the Prince teams and their characters. As at the end of the series it will go straight to the movie.
- Each character has their own unique characteristics.
- I'll be honest, I love Kanon (heroine) in the series. Her character is really refreshing, and I love how she doesn't give in to the boys' antics in the show.

Overall:
The drama is quite enjoyable especially if you're a fan of EXILE TRIBE (since most of the boys are from there), but not to the point you want to re-watch the series. Just watch ikemen compete with one another, and enjoy the cringefest this series will bring. And again, don't take the series to seriously.

¡Justo lo que necesitaba ver!

¡Hola, gente bella! ¿Cómo están? Hoy me paso por acá contenta porque voy a hablarles de la bizarreada hermosa que es la primera temporada (y la primera película) de #PrinceOfLegend.

Por si no saben de qué se trata, digamos que hay una escuela a la que asiste gente muy bella y muy educada, y en esa escuela hay un director muy extraño que decidió organizar una competencia para elegir al próximo "príncipe legendario"... ¿Qué pasa entonces? Bueno, a casi nadie le importa el título, por lo que nuestros protagonistas terminan participando por otros motivos...

Si me preguntan por una serie que recomiendo un montón a pesar de saber que es cualquier cosa y que tiene mil detalles cuestionables, sería esta. Yo no les puedo explicar lo mucho que la disfruté: los personajes son geniales, el second lead syndrome es muy real, es súper exagerada y graciosa de buena manera, etc.

Si ven el póster podrán pensar "¿cómo es que hay tantos personajes teniendo solo 10 capíutlos de 23min?", pero créanme cuando les digo que literalmente todos son súper diferenciables y recordables (incluso aquellos que aparecen muy poquito). El motivo: prácticamente todos los personajes siguen un estereotipo muy conocido y cada par de capítulos se cambia de protagonista, por lo que llegamos a conocerlos bien (y a quererlos mucho) a todos. ¡Una genialidad! Sobre todo porque la serie en ningún momento se toma en serio a sí misma. Digamos que, lo que quisieron hacer, les salió muuuy bien.

Creo que lo que más le critico realmente (independientemente de todos los sinsentidos o cosas que quedan medio en el aire) es que exageran con los recaps y los resúmenes. Literal, si sacamos todos, los capítulos deben quedar de 15min aprox. Ah, y si bien la película me gustó mucho como cierre de esta primera parte, me pareció un montón que los primeros 25min fueran un resumen del dorama.

Amé a los actores (ahora tengo todavía más ganas de ver High and Low), la banda sonora es un loco y lloré de risa con la competencia por ver quién sería el próximo "Prince of Legend"... Plis, me acuerdo de escenas y me río sola jaja.

Una comedia muy japonesa y muy recomendable.

?OSHI, OSHI, OSHI?
