Amagi Brilliant Park

[Kraco]

I felt a bit sorry for Isuzu when her shortcomings became so obvious. I hadn't even realised she was that bad, associating her gun waving habits only with her interaction with Kanie. But apparently she's even worse when he's not present. No matter how arrogant and bad the dude is sometimes, it can't be said he wouldn't be achieving anything. Of course his inexperience is showing sometimes, but he has one excellent quality and that's making prompt decisions. And those decisions aren't most of the time as bad as Isuzu's spartan ones. It's not wonder the park was going down with Isuzu trying to lead it like a military camp and the princess lying on her deathbed.

Still, I reckon this episode deepened the understanding between Isuzu and Kanie if nothing else.

Episode 5 - Vivid



- - - - - - - - --



Quite a traditional but very funny scene of Kanie calling after Isuzu when she fell through the trap hole, and then when Makaron fell, after a brief pause, he just shouted "Sento!" again. The guy at least has his priorities right!

Once again I had totally forgotten Kanie had the mind reading ability before he beat the dragon with it. It hasn't really been put to an overly good use by the story, unlike, say, Lelouch's ability in Code Geass. While this show is pretty much comedy and moe and little heavier stuff, I still wish the ability was used to save the place, to justify its existence in the first place.

[Buffalobiian]

What I had forgotten was that Kanie is in fact far from saving the place. I expected things to gradually get better with noticable improvement, but the money issue hit home that it's still all trial and error.

And Dornell, them feels man. :'(

I don't know why they aren't charging for other things. They have the 30 yen admission, but they just found a new attraction and could charge a separate entrance fee for it. We already know they have a niche survivalist crowd fanbase.

• 30 yen General Admission + 5000 yen and a liability waiver = Take the dragon's quest! Already built!
• Slightly raise the price of merchandise
• Put in one of those slingshot things that the parks charge you 3500-5000 yen for each ride. Low construction costs.
• And get the bus stop changed!

But I guess that runs afoul of the good-hearted nature of this park's residents.

Episode 6 -Vivid





-- - - - - - -- -




I hadn't thought about it before, but they really did have few workers. Naturally it makes sense considering the dire financial situation, and also the fact they all were fairies, I believe, before Kanie was involved. Still, amusement parks tend to be quite labour intensive all in all, so they can't avoid staffing the place appropriately if they intend to really get things rolling. Not that some of the freaks they hired wouldn't be even weirder than the old fairies. The masked wrestler and the AV lady were the best interviews.

I'm liking it that Sento seems to be slowly becoming aware of her extra feelings for Kanie.

Kyoto Animation is the reason why this show continues to be good. No other studio (yes, including Ufotable) can do expressions as well as KA. Sento's subtle facial changes comprise 90% of the moe in this show.

[KrayZ33]

Hahahaha, I laughed throughout the whole episode this time around. This is ridiculously funny

Btw, is Vivid doing troll-subs? Not that it matters, because if they do, they are actually really good.
but did the pink mascot really write "the killer has cowtits" with his blood?

[Ryllharu]

The three mascots are particularly vulgar, Muffle being rude, Makaron being offensive, and Tiramii being outright disgusting. Tiramii is meant to the be the worst because it contrasts sharply with Nonoka Ai's voice.

If Vivid is exaggerating...it isn't by much.

This series has been expertly crafted with the minor details like that. The little things pile up. That's why it is one of the funniest shows this season (tied with Denki-gai no Honya-san in my opinion). It has a lot of the same dry humor that Kyoukai no Kanata had, but with more of the exaggerated expressions of Chuunibyou and even some influence from studios like Trigger or Brain's Base. This series is the result of KyoAni building their talent and expertise back up from their low point.

[Buffalobiian]

The little things pile up.

But the one thing that's not piling up is the visitor count. I'm getting worried for these guys. Kanie may be better than Sento in his management, but he's not the child prodigy I expected him to be.

I came here expecting Shinta to talk about waki but it didn't happen.

The literal translation would be milk bag. 乳袋 has three possible meanings.
Chibukuro = Boobs.
Chibukuro (2) = The protruding part of a shamisen or a hand drum.
Chichibukuro = The shape of the boobs clearly visible through clothing.

I guess the first meaning is what is intended and does translate to cowtits. Personifying someone as boobs implies that they have huge ones, after all.

Whoever designed Sento's costume is a prodigy much better than Kanie. Wacky Waki.

[Kraco]

He was a failed child prodigy. After all, if he was a real prodigy, he would still be something in the business or have a business of his own. Instead he's an arrogant high school boy living with his big sister. But looking at it objectively, Sento only led the park to a disaster with her nonexistent (entertainment, management, and business) skills, so how on Earth could she have had the wits to choose and convince the right person to save the park? Instead she chose Kanie for whatever reason. Maybe due to some magical fairy guidance. Still, at least he's trying, trying really hard. Probably he's still far better than some random joe from the streets since he does have a distant background in the entertainment.

[neflight86]

I admit, the pink mascot's vulgarity really makes me lose my crap. Excellent entertainment all around.

Vivid - Episode 07

-------------------------------















I liked this episode even better than the last one. Eiko-chan is worth her weight in gold. That narration works wonders. I suppose the novelty was such that even the guests were happy to play a female slave for a while.

Amusement Park Wars VI - Return of the Manager.

I wouldn't exactly call this show outrageously hilarious, but it's very consistently funny and above all it works, from the beginning of the episodes till the end. The service is jolly good.

[NeoCybercoin]

So dissapointed Sento didn't drop into the pool of tentacles.

So dissapointed Sento didn't drop into the pool of tentacles.

In a way.. but those boots were hot in their own way. Imagine if she stepped on you with those heels ~

[shinta|hikari]

Sento is so hot. She is so hot, in fact, that I did not even pay attention to the loli (unbelievable, I know). The princess's character is simply being swallowed by Sento's.

The perv cat was hilarious because of how innocent it looks.

The shark joke was surprisingly funny probably because of the detailed art. It really DID look terrifying.

If the pirate show hadn't been so superb after the shark attack, the amusement park would have found itself sued, no doubt. Kids finding a thing like that right behind them in a pool would suffer from a horrible trauma if it wasn't immediately wiped from their (and the parents') minds by Sento's hot body by more awesome things.

[shinta|hikari]

Sento can simply shoot them and erase their memory. In fact, she probably did.

[vejita613]

Speaking of Sento, what the heck was that at the end?
