Meanwhile, Latifah collapses, and we get revealed what the purpose of Amagi Brilliant Park is, and Moffle tells Kanie about what Latifah's condition is. Finally, it is revealed the park has a chance of being saved!

    Question of the Day:

    1. Was the true reason for the park existing like what you expected at all?

    Attraction of the Day:

    The cave from episode 5, Ruby's Trial by Fire!

    1. Looks like business really is brisk.

      Everything really “just works”.

      I’m going to take the appearance of the ‘Mech to mention Mechwarrior 5: Clans. By the time this is up it should have released a couple of hours ago. If you like ‘Mechs, you’ll probably enjoy it.

      Triple rotary autocannons and twin 4-tube missile launchers? That’s an ammo explosion waiting to happen.

      The guests seem to be enjoying themselves, and really that’s the most important part.

      Those are some odd filling choices for croquettes…

      Uh oh, what happened to her?

      That got real dark real fast.

      More advertising is always a safe bet.

      Gee how convenient that she’s 24 and thus it’s suddenly less creepy. Except she forgets everything so she’s still mentally 14 and thus it’s still just as creepy.

      Right, what’s his bright idea now?

      Questions:

      1. Of course not.
      2. They said a decade, so 24 years?
      3. Honestly? They could probably just keep chugging along and they shouldn’t have too many issues, especially with summer break starting.

      Yeah… No.

      **Amagi Brilliant First-Timer, subbed**

      – Cool to see some payoff from previous episodes at the start of this one. The pool show and dungeon exploration look like big hits now! [](#saberawe)

    3. **Rewatcher.**

      * Glad to see the park’s doing really well.

      * [Hey they finally got the park set up for nights.](https://i.imgur.com/3zoA5eu.png) Looks pretty.

      * I like how the upgrades to the attractions meant making them more extreme, Tiramie has punchy flowers, Macarone is doing heavy metal, and Moffle’s made even harder with mechs and stuff.

      * [How did they even find her this time?](https://i.imgur.com/jcQgMHF.png)

      * Sento’s got a point, attendance is up.

      * I keep forgetting that Tricon is kind of a pervert.

      * The three stooges and Sento are drinking together, thank God Takami can handle Tiramie sexually harassing her [for which Sento shoots him.](https://i.imgur.com/1tr8DI2.png)

      * Moffle and Sento seem to do the math and despite how well things are going, they feel like it’s not enough to beat the deadline.

      * [Hey the Elementario gals are here as well.](https://i.imgur.com/H85oubI.png) They look really cute in casual clothes.

      * Tiramie acts up again, so Sento [puts him back in his place.](https://i.imgur.com/JayWGop.png)

      * Oh god Latifa is dizzy please don’t fall forward into the pan. Thank God she fell backwards.

      * Kanie is now starting to get real vocal about wanting to know what’s wrong with Latifa.

      * They decide to tell Kanie, and turns out Maple land was attacked by a dragon that was much larger than Ruby, Christ, and Ruby’s pretty big himself.

      * But, a wizard showed up and made a hell of a one-sided deal with the king, he kills the dragon, but he gets the princess’s hand in marriage.

      * So the King backed out of his deal and hunted the wizard, who then placed an animus draining curse on Latifa. With the only way to keep her alive is having her live in a place with abundant animus, a theme park, God the past 5 years must have been rough on her given how they weren’t meeting their 500k visitor a year goal.

      * If the park closes, Latifa is guaranteed to die. No pressure or anything Kanie.

      * Even Kanie knows they won’t make it at the rate they’re going.

      * At least Latifa is remaining optimistic.

      * Nice to see Kanie and Moffle getting along and not throwing punches at each other.

      * So Kanie met Latifa when he was kid, hence the red tinted memories, man how lax is your security that a simple child managed to get all the way to Latifa without being stopped?

      * Moffle explains that the curse resets Latifa’s memories and her physical development every year, so she’s been stuck at 14 years old for 10 years now, so Latifa is actually 24 years old, but the curse has prevented her from physically aging beyond that of a 14-year-old.

      * At least Kanie got Moffle fired up to try and save the park, as well as declaring that he won’t fail to make her smile this time.

      * Tricon might have delivered the good news, they might have a way to meet the goal.

      * But yikes, they have 10 days to get 104k visitors, the pressure is really on now.

      **Question of the Day.**

      > Was the true reason for the park existing like what you expected at all?

      No never thought it was being used as a lifeline for their princess.

      > ~~Since she’s been in a 14 year old body for a while, how long do you think Latifah has lived for?~~

      ~~Wait, that wasn’t covered in the episode? Shit gotta go spoiler tag something really quick.~~

      > What relevance do you think the wizard is going to play in the story? Will he show up at the end? Or do you think he won’t be important at all?

      Not sure, he might’ve died after he placed the curse on Latifa.

      > HOW ARE THEY GOING TO REACH THE GOAL!!!!??

      I don’t know but Tricon might have the answer.

    4. we are nearing the conclusion!

      the loredumping is a lot to take in, but gosh does it explain a lot. the manager being a child, why everyone is so passionate about the park, why Latifah is so weak and needs a magic barrier, Kanie’s flashbacks, Moffle’s overprotection of Latifah, etc. it’s really well written and well foreshadowed!

      the start of the episode is really sweet, we see the Elementario’s growth and throwbacks to what they accomplished in the past episodes and planned to do in the future, namely putting on lights which look GORGEOUS

      i don’t really have much to say, it’s really just setting us up for the final arc. i can’t wait for the next final episodes!

      1. not at all i thought it was just a silly theme park in a gag anime i didn’t think much of it

      2. sorry everyone i changed the question 4 minutes after i posted it, the old question was kinda boring. obviously i cannot answer this as it is spoilers

      3. SPOILERSSSS !!!!!

    5. Amagi brillant park episode 10
      First time watcher Spanish subs

      The park is so full of life! And the pirate show is a success, now with Shogun dolphin as the hero. And Rubi the dragon. Night show with the elementario girls,

      Kanie’s tenure as CEO has brought Amagi park back to life. Then why is he so worried?
      HAHAHAA the games are a Little more creepy or noisy but the guests love them, Also Moffle and the creepy kids as a military squad in his shooting game is a massive improvement. HAHAHA they still attacked Sento once again.

      Theyr’re now at TV!. Stop recording her tits HAHAHA, Toriken is so funny when he may lose the eye Candy.

      Once again at the bar the three amigos and Sento ,It’s just hilarious how Sento can get away shooting Tiramie (he deserves it) and the Waitress Takami doesn’t bat an eye.Oh that’s why Moffle, Sento and Kanie were worried, even with all these growth, the numbers may not be enough. The Elementario girls joined the party. Once again (offscreen) Tiramie gets shot, you deserve it .

      Latifah looks so lovely cooking, and Sento still gets jealous. GOOD. Fuck! Latifah passed out, perhaps she overworked herself. Moffle still refuses to answer why Latifah is sick.

      Lore time, Sento tell us a story. A great Mage stopped a dragon who attacked Maple-Land in Exchange for the pricess hand (spelling?) yet this Mage was decieved and betrayed, so He cursed Latifah, so she needs such a large supply of Animus to keep her alive, that’s why she’s at Amagi Brilliant park.

      It was mostly such a happy episode, therefore we have incoming drama, the final arch is so close I can almost taste it.

      Poor Latifah, Kanie gives her the bad prognosis yet she keeps faith. Good point Latifah, Kanie was the miracle that has revitalized a dead park. Sento x Kanie shippers can only dream he showed this much emotion when speaking with Sento. #LatifahBestGrill.

      Flashback time, Did Latifah look the same in the flashback with child Kanie or was it my imagination?, I mean she looked like she hadn’t aged a single day, and wll Kanie is now a teenager.

      Kanie has lost it. He’s so desperate to save Latifah that all those ideas, great ideas, the best ideas ever that will help the park in the long run are rejected since they won’t reach the needed guest number. Also apparently all the Elementario girls are now in the board meeting, I’d think only Muse should have a seat there and include the other department heads.

      134, 000 visitors left?! How the hell they can get such a great number. Perhaps they should invite Taylor Swift or any other Singer to boost their numbers.

      Perhaps it was better that he didn’t know about Latifah’s curse. Time passes and they’re not close enough to the goal. Now he’s unberably stressed out. Even Moffle points out that Kanie is not being liked by the staff at the moment.

      Moffle got violent. Kanie desevres it at least a little. Now the cat is out of the bag. and Moffle leaves the scene

      Most realistic older sister. Drink all your problems away. except Kanie is a minor.

      Kanie’s depressed at the stat of sunmer. WTH Kanie, you closed the park?! Oh never mind. it’s just late at night. Oh touching moment between Moffle and Kanie. he even gave him a beer?

      Kanie remembered his past with Latifah. oh that’s why it means so much for him. Now Moffle fills Kanie in the rest of the details

      Dear God… poor Latifah. She’s trapped in a preteen body and forced to forget.

      No, I don’t want that Latifah gets older for 10 years at least!!

      Just like Kanie renewed Moffle’s hope with his efforts, now Moffle’s words brought him hope again. Even if Latifah will forget him

      what do you say Toriken, perhaps they may reach the goal? Still over 104 thousand in 10 days.

      I did NOT see the curse coming at all. It adds a tragic and more urgent element to saving Amagi Brilliant Park. I’m also sure that even if they save the park, Kanie isn’t going anywhere. This was a touching episode. could the curse be broken? it seems unlikely. If she survives, that’s enough for them and for me aswell, even if its bittersweet.

      qod
      1. I was just expecting a colony to harvest human fun. certainly it wasn’t on my mind that they were harvesting for just one person.
      2. Latifah is at the very least 24 years old. her paused age of 14 plus 10 years… but if the park was founded to harvest energy for her and it’s near its 30th anniversary. She may be 44 years old or older. I choose to believe she’s 24.
      3. They need a massive event. a festival a concert idk.

    6. Om, nom, nom, had to make a snack…

      Answers du jour:

      1) Sort of, but I didn’t remember the exact reason.

      2) I have no idea. Let’s just hope that if he shows up, he keeps his *robe and wizard hat* on…

      3) [Free beer, no doubt. :P](https://youtu.be/80UjzxfNugs?si=UC4gd9ev3KLKK6xk&t=47)

      Bonus: Cave? I’m still farming boars in the starter zone and hoping Mom shows up with some Hot Pockets…

      Dang, this episode hit me in the memories, and in the feels. It’s been so long, and honestly, I don’t even remember how long ago … I stopped watching, because I couldn’t bear the thought of an unhappy ending.

      Keep in mind, that I’m a viewer who has experienced more than my share of disappointing anime endings, and this was before Wonder Egg. After enjoying this show and falling in love with the characters, I couldn’t bear the thought of … Eventually, a few years later, I did finish watching it, if only because a certain other magical show taught me not to fear the anime tragedy, so I toughed it out.

      Meanwhile, two things:

      – Triceratops dude really needs to learn to practice some OPSEC. If the reporters have nice *features*, keep your dang mouth shut and enjoy the experience, and …

      – Latifa (and her smile) is precious, *must protecc*

      and oh, yeah, I wonder what kind of rabbit dino-dude thinks he has in his dino-hat? The world wonders…

      Oh, and edit: The Macaron does *”Deathtöngue”* bit was good for a laugh. Perhaps they should recruit Sawa-chan and Peath Pevil as the main act? Or see if KongMing is available for a consultation. Put Eiko on the main stage, even. 😛

    7. Huh? Weren’t the stakes presented from the start that the Maple Landers would eventually fall into obscurity and disappear if the park closes? Why are we revealing that the same applies to Latifa like its some big shocking revelation that the park closing would mean she’d die? Like the whole reveal here just sounds like ‘ok she needs more power than normal because of that curse’.

      Anyway, the wizard fell off a cliff, something something fear of heights…

      Oh, they’re *still* doing that 30 yen thing? Honestly, if this was real life I can’t imagine how obscure an amusement park would have to be to not have like floods of people going if they were discounting to that price.

      Ok, so their justification is just that most of the cast members would still survive just by joining some other park. Even though I distinctly remember an argument in those first episodes where someone got angry at… I think it was Moffle, because he would be able to join another park since he was friend’s with the mascot there and is comparatively popular enough or something? Which made it sound like that was not in fact an option for most members. But ok.
