I was fully expecting him to break the curse with a kiss. Isn't that how fairy tales usually go?
Workable ending, with some emotional moments. Not sure what spoiler[the wizard] was for, unless they're looking at another season. |

How is it crap? Or are you just enjoying everything without standards? |

Well, according to the other posters, they seem to care about Latifah's situation and her character. So yeah, it's crap.
That's hilarious, coming from a guy who actually complained about the lack of fanservice of an eleven-year-old girl in NGNL. 
I wouldn't be so quick to criticize other people's standards. As far as the show "only caring about Isuzu".......sure she gets more screentime....but that's about it. I still don't really have a grasp on anything deep about her.....and I still find it hard to care about her, 12 episodes in. She's a stoic-faced, walking pair of boobs with a gun about 98% of her screentime and that is boring to me. I don't think she's written any better than Latifah. |

While I don't particularly approve of Sunny Milk's attitude, he does have a point in that Latifah got too little screentime considering she's the primary motivation driving the plot. She's a sweet, cute kid but not much else. That's enough for most people to make them want to protect that smile but her characterization is still fairly shallow.
Isuzu had that one episode where she struggles with the fact that Kanie is doing a better job than her, and that she doesn't get along well with others. Latifah didn't get anything like that spoiler[until she breaks down crying.] I was genuinely on the edge of my seat as the clock was ticking down wondering how the day would be saved. And even then the whole time I was expecting spoiler[that dude to come out and say "too bad, it's 1 second past 9! You failed!"] Having a light hearted final ep after finishing the climax early is rather common. I'm surprised people are surprised. |

Episode 12
Even though we guessed that spoiler[they would make it], I was still on the edge of my seat and caught up with the tension. To me the episode was almost perfect having everything I wanted for the finale to achieve. It's no secret that I'm a big supporter of Sento here, but this episode I totally fell for Latifa. Seeing her release those emotions, whilst hugging Kanie as the clock struck twelve. There was such a sense of relief and happiness when she spoiler[finally called his name.] Now Sento... That little scene between her and Kanie gives me hope, just a fool's hope, that there's still something between the two. Kanie spoiler[returning to the park] just put the icing on the cake on a terrific episode and I can't wait to see a light hearted last episode next week. Whatever happens next week I'm awarding ABP a Masterpiece rating and it's neck on neck with NGNL for my show of the year. |

You know, when the female lead is Sento and the male lead is Kanie, there isn't any other possibility for romance than Sento x Kanie.
Latifa never was in the competition and I think KyoAni took extreme care that nobody thinks different. |

But that's not always true. Leads DON'T always end up together. The examples are rare....but they still exist.
That's why they already kissed and hugged?  KyoAni didn't do a good job then.

Sento + Kayne = Theory Titanic
Latifa + Kayne = Real Titanic |

Kissed and hugged, and neither was romantic. If anything, that should be a clear indication that Latifa never was in the game in Kanie's eyes. To further add, she practically has a 14 year old body and mind, and that age gap is not acceptable in a series like this. And finally, Sento ship is already all but confirmed. Whether they give it a clear finish by chewing it in our face in the last episode, or don't outright confirm it is up to the last episode, but it doesn't matter much whether they spell it out for us or not. Once again: Sento = main girl, gets all fanservice and countless characterization, with a big, well endowed body type. Latifa = plot device, gets no fanservice and little characterization, with a complete opposite body type to Sento. There's no way they suddenly decide to suicide and turn against the fans they have been catering all this time. Miracles in real life - unlike in Amagi - don't happen. Anime (and LN) industry is business. |

Uh, Kanie is like, 16. Hardly an issue. |

Says you. :p
Sir, my top OTP is 14 years apart. Do you think I give a rat's ass about a two year gap?
Oh puh-leeze. Asuna and Yuuki from SAO have more romantic chemistry than THESE TWO.
There has been ZERO indications that Seiya sees Sento as more than a co-worker. I'd rather him not end up with anyone if this forced thing is gonna take off at the last second. If Sento even got up her nerve to confess, his answer would totally be "Lol of course."

Sento was, and still is the romantic interest.
There's no other romance in the series. Please stop seeing what you want into the series. It would be nice if Latifa won, but that possibility wasn't ever in the deck. Whenever in doubt, just check the fanservice and screentime allocation. |

Fanservice and screentime mean very little. Look, the NOVEL isn't even over yet. I have no idea why you're going "It can't happen it can't happen it can't happen".
I think anything could happen. Pretty sure nothing's going to happen between anyone in this final episode though. |

In the pirate episode he had a pretty bashful reaction to her outfit. Not in your usual overblown comedic reaction sort of way either. He gave her a genuine compliment in a shy manner. Also you can't ignore the scene this episode with their awkward farewells. You know I'd be the first to agree with you if there really was nothing, but that's not the case here.
I won't say it can't happen, but it's unlikely it will. I've gone on at length about this topic before but the main girl is usually unbeatable. Besides, the author didn't let Tessa win in FMP. I doubt he'll let Latifa win here. |

It can't happen, because titles like this are very clear on the topic. And fanservice/screentime means a lot. Since, you know, the author decides who he wants to favor with these. Ergo it's obvious who Amagi favors. Also, being the female lead who just happens to be the same age as Kanie is also quite the hint. And finally Kanie treats Latifa like a daughter/little sister, much like how Moffle does. The paralel is clear here as well. |
