Having watched almost every anime of Kyoto Animation I have to say that Amagi Brilliant Park is unique on its own and yet another stunning creation.
While most high school comedy animes are of course set in a school environment this one takes place on a very magical place, Amagi Brilliant Park!
Story - 8
The story is fairly simple yet entertaining, the main character Kanie is set out to save a amusement park from the brink of extinction.
There aren't really a lot of plot twists and unexpected events but that doesn't mean the story is bad.
Sometimes the process alone of seeing people come together and overcome harsh trials is heartwarming, Amagi Brilliant Park did a great job at presenting that.
The only complaint here is that the last episode isn't actually part of the main plot, so for those of you who don't like OVA you can just skip it if you want, as the anime's ending is actually ep. 12.
Art - 9
Oh it's the part where we talk about Kyoto animation's art again, I mean are there really any explanations needed here? The art is very refreshing, the colors are vibrant and exciting, the characters feel much more alive than those of any other anime. The art just feels like it's on another level. In short, Kyoani's art is love, Kyoani's art is life.
Sound - 7
The music in Amagi Brilliant Park wasn't anything particularly special or very memorable, but it did achieve what it was made for, it set the mood very well and didn't stand out too much. I think a 7 is justified here as I think an 8 or higher should only be given to music that touches your heart.
Character - 8
I really liked how the main character Kanie seemed reluctant at first, but quickly makes up his mind because of the dire situation the park is in and the consequences it has if the park breaks down. This really shows that deep down Kanie is actually a very good person, that tsundere side of him makes me go cringe in joy. What slightly disappointed me was that you don't get to see a lot about Sento, the girl that lured the savior in. Other characters played a very comical part and were very entertaining to watch, my fav was definitely Tiramie.
Enjoyment - 9
Even though this anime is not a masterpiece by any means, I still got a lot of enjoyment out of it. The comedy was great and made me breath more air out of my nose numerous amount of times. Even though the ending wasn't anything out of expectation, I was still quite touched by the moment.
Conclusion
This anime is definitely recommended for people that like comedy, the anime also contains a slight bit of drama but I'd say the comedy in this show is worth the most. For those of you who are perverted and like fanservice, there is some of that as well but luckily not enough to overpower the anime.
note: I didn't spell check so there might be some mistakes.
