Advent of an Aristocrat: Prince of Legend (2020)

Movie wasn't what I really expected, I still think it's much better than the 1st season and the movie.

You need to watch at least the first movie and 2nd season in order to understand what is going on in this one. Also there's a lot of re-occurring characters from the first season/movie here.

- Since all of the series/movies under Prince of Legend is not much of a serious story, the plot isn't much as well here.
- It is another competition again with ikemens, this time with 'Aristocrats' and 'Princes'
- I love the aspect of concern between Team Next and Ryu, while trying to understand why one of Team Next member has changed to the Aristocrat side.
- All the boys are indeed an eyecandy, but I think Alan Shirahama (main actor) really took the spotlight here. Though I have to say that I prefer his acting in Season 2 as Shintarou instead. Him being as Dori in this movie, I had so many cringe moment with him being in that character, due to the change of personality. But he did well acting the part. I just wished his character was more opened to what was happening during the movie, since he's still Shintaro and the sudden shift to a different personality felt off and less compassionate unlike how he was in S2.

Spoiler
- The movie does end in a cliffhanger, and I'm hoping that despite LDH dropping the otome game based on this series is that they still finish off the Prince of Legend series. For me, I think the cliffhanger was actually the most interesting and intriguing part of what it seems like a much bigger and darker plot. If they do push it, I hope they get a much better screen writer and make a much better plot for the next.

Overall:
If you have gotten invested with the series, go ahead and watch this. It's still fun and enjoyable. I'm just hoping if LDH continues this series, that the plot will be much better.
