My Chinito Prince Episode 1

My Chinito Prince (2021) Episode 1: Let the Love Begin

While technically there’s little difference from "Stranger's Kiss," "My Chinito Prince" at least retained the heart that its parent series had. On Episode 1: Let the Love Begin, both Niko and Prince were endearing. Yes, Niko highlighted the need for character development (why does he require saving all the time?). But because he's nice, I can't help but root for him. Hopefully this series settles most (if not all) of the loose ends from "Stranger's Kiss." The screenplay for this episode was passable. Acting was uneven though. While there were scenes wherein the actors performed naturally, there were also scenes wherein they were a bit stiff. Audio-visuals had minor improvements when compared to "Stranger's Kiss." Aside from "Stranger's Kiss" soundtrack "Magkasama" (Together) by John Axl Nolasco featuring Justin Cabiso, this episode also featured "Patawarin" (Forgive) by Ian Illustrisimo featuring Raiden Ramiscal. All in all, I'm just glad there's an opportunity to settle the loose ends from "Stranger's Kiss."
