Princess Principal: Crown Handler (Japanese: プリンセス・プリンシパル Crown Handler, Hepburn: Purinsesu Purinshiparu: Kuraun Handorā) is a six-part Japanese animated spy action film series and a sequel to the 2017 anime television series Princess Principal. Produced by Actas and distributed by Showgate, the film series is directed by Masaki Tachibana from a script written by Noboru Kimura and stars Aoi Koga, Akira Sekine, Yō Taichi, Akari Kageyama, and Nozomi Furuki.

The film series follows Ange, Princess Charlotte, Dorothy, Beatrice, and Chise Tōdō, members of Team White Pigeon, as they are assigned to investigate Bishop, the Commonwealth spy within the Kingdom's royal family, for his loyalty. Following his death from an assailant and an assassination attempt on Prince Richard, the team is tasked to find the Cavorite bombs that are stolen from the Commonwealth. After the incident of missing bombs, Prince Richard, the mastermind behind it and the assassination of Prince Edward, invites Charlotte to join him for his plan to reform the Kingdom. The death of Prince Edward, who is first in succeeding the Queen of the Kingdom, has caused a power struggle between Prince Richard and Princess Mary, who is second in the line of succession.

A sequel to the anime series was announced in April 2018.

Chapter 1

[edit]

In response to the assassination attempt on the Queen, the Duke of Normandy begins cracking down on suspected Commonwealth of Albion spies. Concerned that their mole within the royal family may be a double agent, Control tasks the Team White Pigeon with making contact with the mole and investigating him. Ange disguises herself as Princess Charlotte and meets the mole in the royal palace, and is surprised to discover that the mole is Winston, the grand chamberlain and the man that used to take care of her when she was a child. Winston recognizes Ange and lets her know that he is aware she is the real Charlotte and the other is an impostor. Ange and Charlotte explain to the rest of the team that he knows they are investigating him. Despite knowing the risk of Winston exposing them, the team continues to investigate him and discovers that Winston has been secretly communicating with an unknown third party through coded messages he has hidden in the Queen's speeches. The team manages to expose him by feeding him false information and tricking him into sending out a message they can intercept. Control orders the team to detain Winston for interrogation, but Ange secretly arranges for his escape in return for keeping her and Charlotte's secret. Winston parts amicably with Ange but is shot by an assassin. With his dying words, Winston warns Ange that if she continues living a life of lies, she will end up like him. In the aftermath, both the Duke of Normandy and Control become aware of the unknown third party's involvement as the team feels defeated in failing to save Winston.

Chapter 2

[edit]

The Commonwealth tests a new and destructive Cavorite bomb which they intend to use against the Kingdom of Albion. Meanwhile, Prince Richard returns to the Kingdom but is injured in an assassination attempt. Control gives Team White Pigeon a new mission to search for three Cavorite bombs that were stolen from the Commonwealth and smuggled into the Kingdom, with the concern that those bombs may be used to instigate a war between both nations. Following a lead, the team investigates the Vegas Steam Theater and finds the bombs hidden there. They then put the theater under surveillance while they wait for Control to organize a retrieval team. However, when the surveillance teams are killed by the assassin, Ange, Dorothy, and Chise Tōdō have no choice but to raid the theater. They manage to capture the smuggler and recover two of the bombs, but they find out the third one has been smuggled onto a yacht where a royal ceremony is being held with Charlotte, Beatrice, and Princess Mary present. With Ange's quick thinking, they manage to stop the bomb from detonating and prevent it from falling into the Kingdom's hands. Charlotte returns to the royal palace, only to discover Prince Edward has been assassinated. She comes across Prince Richard, who admits he was behind the bomb plot and Prince Edward's death as he wants to seize power and reform the Kingdom. He then asks Charlotte whether she will join him or not.

Chapter 3

[edit]

Prince Richard says he will wait for Princess Charlotte's decision to his ultimatum. After Charlotte revealed Richard's ambition and role in the assassination of Prince Edward, Team White Pigeon decides to not make any decisions for the moment and informs Control. Control orders the team to infiltrate the royal household—Charlotte and Beatrice staying in the palace, while Ange and Dorothy pose as maids—to investigate the power struggles in the royal family. As the current one who is in line for the throne, Princess Mary is given more strict lessons and training to prepare her for her future duties. Charlotte speaks with Richard again and learns that he wants to fix inequality not just in Albion but also on the world stage. Richard covertly provokes nobles to demand that the Duke of Normandy be removed from his post as the Home Secretary for failing to protect Edward while in public. The Duke of Normandy tells Richard that he is aware of his machinations. Meanwhile, Richard also arranges for Mary's education to be even more strict along with a grueling schedule, much to the consternation of Olivia, the Princess' lady-in-waiting. Overcome by the stress, Mary tries to escape through the window and endangers herself, but she is saved by Dorothy. After discussing it with the others, Charlotte arranges a tea time with the rest of Team White Pigeon to provide Mary a break from her studies. Hearing of this, Richard plots to depose Mary more directly and arranges a plot on her life while Charlotte is not with her, but the result is unsuccessful. Distraught by this news, Charlotte decides that she wants to help Mary flee the country as her life is in danger, which is approved by Control. The operation goes smoothly at first but before Mary and Olivia can escape over the wall into the Commonwealth, they are intercepted by the Kingdom's forces. Team White Pigeon is arrested with their identities exposed. The Duke of Normandy reveals to Charlotte that he has also arrested Richard on suspicion of his role in assassinating Edward and gives Charlotte an ultimatum to become a double agent for the Kingdom.

Production

[edit]

A sequel to the 2017 anime television series Princess Principal was announced during the Princess Principal Stage of Mission live event for the anime series in April 2018, which would comprise six films.[6] Anime series director Masaki Tachibana and chief producer Atsushi Yukawa agreed on making films as a sequel because they found doing another television series "physically demanding".[7] Ayaka Imamura, who voiced Ange in the anime series, announced her retirement in June 2018 due to declining health.[8] The film's production staff and committee collaborated with her talent agency With Line to begin auditions for the role.[9] The film series' full title was revealed in September 2019.[9]

The staff for the first film in the series, Princess Principal: Crown Handler – Chapter 1, were revealed in September 2019. Noboru Kimura was revealed to be writing the script for the film instead of Ichirō Ōkouchi, who wrote the anime series. Actas was solely credited for the production as opposed to the collaboration they had with Studio 3Hz in the anime series. Additionally, Aoi Koga was revealed as the new voice actress for Ange, with Akira Sekine, Yō Taichi, Akari Kageyama, and Nozomi Furuki reprising their role as Princess Charlotte, Dorothy, Beatrice, and Chise Tōdō, respectively.[9] The films James Bond, Mission: Impossible, and Charlie's Angels influenced Chapter 1, but Tachibana used Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011) to accomplish "a realistic spy story". While working on the script, Kimura was inspired by the American television series The Blacklist since he was interested on how "the drama and the development [of the series] mesh well".[10] Actas' president Shunpei Maruyama announced the completion of the film's production in March 2020 despite the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.[11] Tachibana likened the action scene at the double-deck bus to Jackie Chan's 1985 film Police Story.[12] Sentai Filmworks revealed the English dub cast for the film in February 2022.[13]

The staff and cast for the second film in the series, Princess Principal: Crown Handler – Chapter 2, were revealed in July 2021.[14] Maruyama announced the completion of the film's production in August 2021.[15] Teruyuki Tanzawa, Rina Endō, and Kazuyuki Okitsu were announced in September 2021 as the respective voices of Prince Edward, Princess Mary, and Prince Richard,[16] who were initially revealed in July.[17] The dragon Smerg from Michael Ende's 1979 novel The Neverending Story influenced the Steam Dragon animatronics in the film.[12] In August 2022, Sentai Filmworks revealed the film would receive an English dub upon their release of the details about its Blu-ray release.[18]

The production for the third film in the series, Princess Principal: Crown Handler – Chapter 3, was announced in September 2021.[16] Tachibana stated the film would help the viewers to "finally begin to understand the meaning of the title Crown Handler".[19] The staff and cast for the film were revealed in November 2022.[20]

Music

[edit]

Yuki Kajiura, who previously composed for the anime series Princess Principal, was reported to be composing Princess Principal: Crown Handler in September 2019.[9] The opening theme music for the film series, "Lies & Ties", was revealed in October 2019 by Void_Chords featuring Yui Mugino.[21] Masami Shimoda served as the director of the film's opening video after declining the initial offer to become the episode director of the eleventh episode of the anime series due to conflicting schedule.[22] The ending theme music for the film series performed by Ange (Koga), Princess Charlotte (Sekine), Dorothy (Taichi), Beatrice (Kageyama), and Chise Tōdō (Furuki), titled "Nowhere Land", was revealed in January 2020.[23] On April 8, 2020, the two singles were released in Japan by the record label Lantis.[24][25] The insert song for Princess Principal: Crown Handler – Chapter 2 titled "Fairy Game" was revealed in August 2021, with FictionJunction and Shuri performing it.[26]

Marketing

[edit]

A teaser visual and trailer for Princess Principal: Crown Handler – Chapter 1 were released in September 2019.[9] The main visual by the character designer and chief animation director Kimitake Nishio and a new trailer for the first film in the series were released in February 2020.[27] In preparation for the upcoming release of the film, Misato Fukuen narrated twelve videos each summarising every episode of the anime series in one minute, which were released on the official YouTube channel of Bandai Namco Arts on January 31, 2021.[28] A trailer and the main visual for Princess Principal: Crown Handler – Chapter 2 were released in July 2021.[29] The first 10 minutes of the second film in the series was released by Bandai Namco Arts on September 27, 2021.[30] A trailer for Princess Principal: Crown Handler – Chapter 3 was shown at the end of Chapter 2,[16] following its main visual and another trailer in November.[31] The first 11 minutes of the third film in the series was released on the YouTube channel of Emotion on April 9, 2023.[32]

Promotion partners for the film series included Dash Store,[33] the Girls und Panzer's smartphone game Girls und Panzer: Great Tankery Operation!,[34] the anime and manga merchandise manufacturer Amnibus,[35] Don Quijote,[36] GraffArt Shop,[37] and GraffArt Cafe.[38]

Reception

[edit]

Box office

Princess Principal: Crown Handler has collectively grossed ¥280 million in Japan: ¥100 million for Part 1, ¥90 million for Part 2,[54] and ¥90 million for Part 3.[55]

Critical response

[edit]

The Japanese review and survey firm Filmarks placed Princess Principal: Crown Handler – Chapter 2 third in their first-day satisfaction ranking, with an average rating of 4.05/5, based on 129 reviews.[56] Princess Principal: Crown Handler – Chapter 3 placed third in the firm's first-day satisfaction ranking, with an average rating of 4.03/5, based on 79 reviews.[57]

Richard Eisenbeis of Anime News Network graded Princess Principal: Crown Handler – Chapter 1 "B", feeling that the film was a "high-stakes spy story and a personally emotional tale all in one. It's a fun little self-contained mystery—but one with revelations and repercussions that will no doubt have a major effect on the Crown Handler films going forward." Eisenbeis lauded the film for the story setup that gave Ange a character development, introducing a mysterious third party that upset the status quo between the major players (Commonwealth and the Duke of Normandy), its major action sequence, and the opening theme song. However, Eisenbeis noted that the majority of the cast were "largely ignored."[58]

Eisenbeis gave Princess Principal: Crown Handler – Chapter 2 a similar grade, feeling that the film "delivers some solid character development for Charlotte and gives us a healthy helping of spy action that is simply fun to watch. And best of all, it ends on a cliffhanger that makes you want to rewatch both this film and the previous one to absorb every little hint about what is actually going on." He lauded the film's "good" setting and character design, and the insert song ("Fairy Game") but noted that Beatrice had nothing to do despite the other main characters had "much more to do in this film than in the previous one."[59]

In his review of Princess Principal: Crown Handler – Chapter 3, Eisenbeis gave the film a grade of "B+", feeling that it was "easily the best of the Crown Handler films so far. It's full of high-stakes tension as our heroes play their spy game while fighting an internal battle between pragmatism and idealism—with a young girl's life hanging in the balance. To top it off, the film ends with a climax that completely upsets the status quo and promises a completely new direction for things going forward." However, he criticized the film's "least impressive" visuals, lack of action sequences, and lack of Beatrice's presence.[60]

Accolade

[edit]

In December 2021, the first two films in the Princess Principal: Crown Handler series were among the Top 100 Favorites nominated for the Anime of the Year at the Tokyo Anime Award Festival 2022.[61]
