During its fifth episode on Friday, August 19, Narda played by Kapamilya star Jane De Leon finally found the courage to take on the mystical stone and transform into Darna.
The most anticipated transformation didn’t disappoint as netizens raved about the episode; praised not only the series but also the lead star’s acting skills.
iDolls member Enzo Almario in his tweet commended De Leon’s acting and alluded to her bashers.

@gioorosioo shared the same sentiment saying Jane has proven all her detractors wrong. The netizen also commended the Kapamilya action-hero serye as the fitting replacement to FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano.
“The Jane De Leon who received a lot of hate comments and labelled as undeserving, is now the Jane De Leon, the new generation Darna. The first five episodes showed how deserving Jane De Leon of the role, not open for debate. Darna is the best series to replace AP. #LipadDarna.”
