I jumped into TNP with zero expectations HOWEVER they ticked all the boxes i am looking for. I love the dialogue between characters especially conversation between the King and Charan thats so genius. The actions scenes??? Thats indeed spectacular and i heard zee not using any stand in and same goes to fencing scene. AND HELLO??? nunew acting here??? I CRIED along with him. The set filming indeed screaming BUDGET and all the casts playing their roles very well. I love the plot is fast paced but at the same time gave each characters playing their roles. It is driving the plot and not otherwise. I am looking forward with how royal politics gonna be.

Os três anos valeram a pena!!! 🙏🏻

Esperei três anos por esse momento, com expectativas tão altas que, na reta final da espera, comecei a me preocupar com possíveis frustrações — especialmente depois de alguns BLs em que apostei todas as minhas fichas este ano e que acabaram sendo uma decepção atrás da outra. Mas, como eu imaginava... The Next Prince é realmente de outro nível. Estamos falando de uma das químicas mais poderosas da indústria, atuações que dão gosto de assistir, produção e cinematografia simplesmente impecáveis; sem contar a criação de um mundo totalmente novo e que eu estou cada vez mais ansiosa para conhecer e entender todo o desenrolar, cada camada que vai envolver essa trama que, sem dúvidas, tem tudo para estar no meu top 3 fav de 2025 (não precisa de muito para saber que essa temática é uma das minhas favoritas da vida — e a principal responsável por eu ter ansiado tanto por tudo isso aqui).

NuNew, a shining ✨

I’m overwhelmed with so many emotions, especially when it comes to NuNew’s scenes. His acting feels so raw and natural—it doesn’t feel like he’s playing a role, but rather living the character. I can truly feel every layer of his performance: the sincerity in his eyes, the weight of his pain, the purity of his joy. It’s captivating. He makes every moment feel personal, and that’s such a rare gift in an actor.I’m incredibly excited to dive deeper into his world. I can’t wait to truly meet Prince Khanin and understand what drives him. At the same time, Kenneth will always hold a special place in my heart—his charm, vulnerability, and warmth are unforgettable.NuNew has this quiet power to make you feel seen through his characters, and that’s what keeps me coming back, again and again.

i am gonna be the odd one out... but am starting…

i am gonna be the odd one out... but am starting to dislike Mork's aggressive, manipulative ways. the audacity to tell Pi what he feels for Nan is obsession. like WTF (it's like the pot calling the kettle black) if anyone's obsessed it's Mork & always checking Pi's pulse - sorry, but when u get angry, worried or scared ur pulse will race, that means ur in love?!? plz, like FO with that reasoning. ****************************************************************************************************************************as is i am getting tired of how aggressively Mork is pursuing Pi, he can see that Pi is like a terrified animal & he keeps cornering him. this fun for whom? other then for Mork who's eating up Pi's reactions - cause it's a game & a hunt to him. but any true introvert will tell u that what Mork's doing is pure nightmare fuel & they would be running in the other direction, exactly like Pi is. *************************************************************************************************************************************what Mork was doing after Pi got rejected by Nan, was gaslighting 101. add the fact he brought alcohol - offering it to a lightweight - sorry, but i am starting to dislike Mork. good looks aside dude is starting to come off like a whack job. the fact that Nan's rejection, the pressure Mork was adding & the confrontation with Pi's mother, broke Pi & i am supposed to be happy that, that poor broken kid tells Mork "just don't leave me"!??? really??? ****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Duean creating chaos everywhere he goes, the fact he stole his brothers clothes is just such a sibling thing to do. dude a menace - the fact he is noticing Meen is interesting, but love that when a female is around he turns to a really bad flirt (bad as in awful lol). but his lie gonna come back to bite him in the backside pretty soon. wonder how Meen's gonna react.

well Mork made himself more then clear that…

well Mork made himself more then clear that he was interested in Pi & i like that he told him that if he isn't ready he would give him time to get used to the idea & in the mean time they could be friends. that is such a wholesome offer. pity Pi isn't ready to listen or believe him. there is a part of me that is tired of his standoffish behavior , but i also get why he is scared to give the idea a chance. ************************************************************************************************************************am glad he confronted the shippers, but i think we haven't seen the last of those morons. they have no life of their on that's why they r so fixated in rummaging in other peoples garbage. Mork should've been more assertive & backed Pi. cause regardless of how much he wants the world to know or he doesn't care who knows, there is a difference between that & two morons following u around documenting ur every moment together. that's hella intrusive! ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************must say Duean is fast becoming the MVP of this BL, he is hilarious & his madness is infectious, everyone around him is a bit nuts by association. like Meen not even questioning Duean's get up when he finally showed-up to their meeting. & i loved that when he got home & removed his get up, Pi sitting there putting it on himself. like how adorable can u get. this is so realistic & wholesome i keep smiling non-stop. *************************************************************************************************the fact Meen already infatuated with Duean is whatever, cause he acting like the possessive spouse, when he doesn't have a right to demanded exclusivity. not when Duean is unsuspecting.

Sociopath or Cinnamon roll? the real question.

This episode is FL fighting herself. Literally. It’s the meme-angel on one shoulder, devil on the other: the angel is her real self, and the devil is Ye Xiwu, the spoiled sadist whose body she now possesses. She has to act evil, manipulative, cruel because her mission demands it.Her father has already planned everything for her. She just needs to follow along.The only validation she’s allowed.So she suppresses every drop of kindness just to survive this time loop with purpose. (And wow, is that not peak Asian parent-child trauma?)Tantai Jin = Soggy Cat with Daddy IssuesML is spiraling in secret. He’s scared, confused, almost falling in love, while being fully aware that he’s destined to become the apocalypse. He isn’t surprised by the voices in his head. He knows he’s the chosen one… for destruction.And his inner demon? Not subtle.“Suffer more, babe. Pain is beauty.”No pep talks. Just psychological torture and metaphysical bird-based bullying. The crows are literal. And mocking. True Asian dad energy (taunts=motivation)FL starts to feel the feels. And that’s the biggest PROBLEM!The more she sees him, the more she feels.He’s not the devil yet. He’s just a broken boy being slowly being consumed by cruelty.She sees how the world treats him. How it made him what he is.And suddenly, killing him isn’t simple anymore.That empathy?That’s how it starts.Not with love. With guilt. With understanding. With a hesitation that’ll ruin everything.Family Dynamics: Peak Asian Family If a character has a parent still breathing in this show, you already know they are slaves under dictators called parents.This drama inherits pain.No one is free. Not from blood, not from duty, not from legacy.Even side characters are getting crushed under expectations and the iconic “WHAT WILL THE SOCIETY THINK?”And let’s not forget: Someone Attempted (we’ll sort of) Murder With a HouseflyWas it genius? Was it petty? Was it artistic warfare?Unclear.But it was chaotic and unhinged, that’s the emotional tone this show has.Final Thoughts:She’s pretending to be cruel.He’s pretending not to care.Both of them are drowning in asian kid expectations.And underneath it all, the earphones (strings) are getting tangled.Episode 2 was not romance. It was recognition. And that’s way more dangerous.
