Princess Principal: Crown Handler Surprises Fans With Part 2 Announcement

Princess Principal is not your average princess story. It’s about a group of girls trying to take over the Kingdom while acting as undercover spies.

You’d be thrilled to know that the franchise is planning an ambitious 6 parted anime film series with Part 1 out right now.

Princess Principal: Crown Handler Part 1 was slated to be released in April 2020 but later rescheduled due to Covid-19 pandemic situation. Part 1 has finally hit the theater screens on 11th February.

But, before we fans could even annoy the production team about news on Part 2, they decided to drop it while Part 1 is still fresh in our minds.

According to Princess Principal’s official website, Princess Principal Crown Handler Part 2 is getting a Fall 2021 release. More details about Part 2 will be released later.

Following Chapter 1 of “Princess Principal Crown Handler”, which started screening today, the release date of Chapter 2 has been decided in [Autumn 2021]! The preview video of Chapter 2 is being released at the end of Chapter 1 being screened! Thank you for your continued support for this series.

It seems like Part 1 movie watchers got to look at an exclusive preview video of Princess Principal: Crown Handler Part 2 release announcement.

Don’t worry, they’ll soon release a trailer or two for international fans. But I’m happy enough with just this news and after waiting so long for Part 1’s release.

This 6 parted anime film is based on a completely different story from the original anime.

The movies focus on team Shirohato, a secret organization sent to spy on the Royals. But, afraid of team Shirohato turning as double agents, the Organization assigns them to report to a man named Bishop.

The story will slowly unfold part by part and we’ll soon find the answer to Bishop’s true identity.

Let’s wait and see how Princess Principal progresses.
