Interesting first episode.

After so many years, KyoAni is finally not using their same retired clichés and instead basically did 180.

Was that like, the first kiss scene KyoAni has ever done? I wonder how hard it was for them to draw it lol

Nude girl scene? Amazed I wasn't drowned in KyoAni moe already.

The monotone scar girl with a hot body and one-liners is a really old trope, and I definitely wont be looking forward to her every episode, but the show itself seems like it has a lot of promise.

Actual magic in this show? Really wasn't expecting this kind of plot at all. Looking forward to the next episode.

Glad to see KyoAni changing up the formula a bit, but overall I can't say the premise has really won me over. I dunno, I'll keep watching.

Felt like a visual novel rather than a LN adaptation, which is good in that it did a pretty good job building the atmosphere and setting a tone, but bad in that I found it slow.

That was a pretty good introductory episode
I think most people forget that this isn't exactly a comedy anime, more like a business anime with fantasy elements and comedy thrown into it
The episode is trying to tell us that the boringness of the theme park and it succeed in doing that, although there are some parts of it which were misses for me
then again.... people aways overreacted toward KyoAni including the fanservice


It's going to be such a great business anime, can't wait to see him read people's minds! Wow no really that sounds so interesting and doesn't kill the fun at all. This is definitely not going to be the next Maoyuu, never mind even trying to compare this to Spice and Wolf.

Adding bonta-kun.

Ha-Ha-Ha,how very funny and original....

Now go fuck yourself Kyoto Animation for sitting with your ass on the Full Metal Panic franchise and not making a proper season 3.

Ummm, shouldn't this be listed as ecchi too? or was it not quite enough?

I have never seen so much fan service in KyoAni before, this is different for me.

The first ep was a bit slow (imo).

Can't wait to see whats next.

Surprised people found this slow, if anything I thought everything happened at a pretty good pace. All the MCs and a fair amount of supporting characters are introduced, the dude gets a power, he gets "chosen" already and we see and know the history of the park.

My problems are with the comedy (didn't laugh once while FMP was pretty good) and the potential ecchi harem setup they have going on here i.e. it could easily go down that road in an instant.

It does have potential though, I like the fact he can read minds.

Also, Bonta-kun? My guess is same author or something.

For some rhyme or reason, I really enjoyed this. Then again, this is Kyoto Ani trying something different.

It's really strange seeing Kyoto Ani making an ecchi type (which I find weird how it doesn't have the ecchi tag attached to it considering how much ecchi we had in the first episode).

I do agree with a few others on here that the comedy was a bit stale. I chuckled in a few instances (almost ironically), but nothing that had me busting a gut. Considering FMP Fumoffu is one of the funniest anime I've ever seen, it doesn't bode well that a supposed "comedy" anime only has me "slightly chuckling."

What the anime did well? I found it to be rather atmospheric. That doesn't really surprise me since I do find many of Kyoto Ani's anime to be atmospheric, but this one had me intrigued, especially when Kanie was having those vague flashbacks.

I don't expect this to be one of my favorite anime of the season (which I'd say Kyoto Ani has fallen pretty far when they aren't making the top anime on my list for the year), but I do think this is going to be better than I originally thought.

Yes, you're right. It's by the same guy who created FMP. But it really had to be something like that when you look at Moffle - he's basically a copy-paste Bonta-kun. And speaking of this issue... I really liked the part where the main accused Moffle of being "a walking copyright infringement". Haha. Anyways, very good first episode! Looking forward to the rest of this show now (especially since I now know that it's from the creator of FMP)! Also, the Opening is great and really catchy!

Boring. The characters try to be funny but they fails at that. The comedy part feels very generic and boring.

I don't even know what is the story is about.

The only positive thing in this show are that it has some cute girls and naked girl in bathroom. THe blond girl is so cute. I will watch 1 or 2 more episode before I decide if it is worth watching or dropping.

Episode that shows all the goodness of KyoAni, spectacular graphics and well-made​​.
Chara Design is the usual and well run, personagi all to know, but nice.
Plot different than usual, I like that.
The KyoAni must have understood that tastes have changed since I did the TV series K-ON to the present day, that's why he gave the gem at the end of episode! ASD
The protagonist seems very consistent in the way of thinking. Not bad even co-star and mascot.
I look forward to the next episode.
For now, my vote is 6/10!

First of all, you people seem rude and dull. I really hope you're just having a tough day.

Secondly, I reeally loved this first episode of this anime!!! (*^▽^*)
It looks soo promising and cute! How I see it right now is that this show will focus on Kanie Seiya getting the amusement park back on its feet and restoring it to it's former cute brilliance. And I reeally hope he will succeed! It has such adorably heart-warming promises! I really want to see that park filled with life and happiness! This first episode has really gotten my hopes up for such a progress of events!
Also, all these premises of magic and cute magical beings from a cute magical land is just soo enticing! I really can't wait for the next episode of this! ^____^
Also, I really hope for a great development of romance on the side. That would make this show totally perfect! That kiss was just perfect! =D

Though, on the other side, I can't say I'm totally enthralled by the fanservice this early in the show...I really hope this won't turn out to be some ecchi harem show. -____-*

Anyhow, I can't wait for next episode! =D

Really happy with this one. I've been disappointed with KyoAni lately, thanks to Chuunibyou S2 and Kyoukai no Kanata, but Amagi Brilliant Park has a lot of charm, and even made me laugh a few times. Honestly, Hyouka was the last KyoAni anime I enjoyed from beginning to end, so knowing that this is the same director gives me hope. And the creator of Full Metal Panic, of course. Looking forward to more.

- artwork is nice
- animations are good enough
- male/female lead's seem okay;
>god bless the ass on Isuzu
- comedy wasn't hitting that much, though it is only a intro episode
- the VA choices are good
- moffle looks super familiar; where did i see him before?!
- music was on point, OST sounds promising
- ED is okay

the mind-reading thing has potential.

In terms of opening episodes out of all the ones ive seen this season besides for Fate/stay night's, id say that this one left the biggest impression on me. I enjoyed the comedy, the park just gave off this horrible aroma which made it interesting, the main character actually has personality, decent intro to a few of the side characters, well displayed concepts and ideas, nothing really felt rushed and the animation was at the standards of Kyoani.

I am very surprised that this hasn't been picked up for simulcast yet.

For someone who used to write great stuff and I used to agree most of the times, you're surprisingly hateful this time.
✓ That's the joke here. MC is the patterned "cool and smart that latter gets deredere" on purpose. Sento gives it away already when she mentions his narcissist personality. Too early to judge on that.
✓ Well, it's based on a harem VN, so, of course. Even though, so far from what I've read there's zero to none romance developing within the "harem".
✓ Yep, Sento is the pattern of a Kuudere, I'd give you that.
✓ Agreed.
✓ This is really subjective. I personally enjoyed the gags, references, pacing and blatant "because it's MAGIC!" explanations. Kinda reminds me of Seto no Hanayome.
✓ The majority of this genre is like this but it isn't an factor that determines overall quality. You can have loads of fun with stupid and random "puff supernatural plot twist inbound"
✓ Uhm, no. This one I strongly disagree. Actually something that made me pick this up is the average age of characters. Being a while since KyoAni did a show with an older cast and I wanted to see how that would play out. Only the male MC is a highschooler, Sento is around her 20s, the elemental girls slightly above that (20~25), the loli isn't really a loli (anime will get to that latter) and all the other staff members are around their 30s (accountant, supervisor, etc).

It's too early to make these assumptions, imo. If you don't enjoy the setting you should've stayed away right from the beginning. On the other hand, if you're interested -and from all of yours reviews that I remember reading, I guess you're- than you should wait a little longer.
