End up watching this by mistake couple years ago and was a little hesitant with it being KyoAni and all and at the time I wasn't in the mood for their brand of slice of life.
But man I'm also happy I did! I loved this series, the humour really got me and the seiyuus for the main humans were perfect. I did pick up on Kanye and Queen Latifah but the 50 cent one went by me... Like the reviewer said it's one the more fun anime I've had the pleasure of watching, really reminded me of the humour of Fumoffo (KyonAni did that bit too).

Is she? Well, regardless, his relative of some description is Ice Cube. |

I really liked Amagi Brilliant Part-the storyline was pretty unique and the characters were well fleshed out. I think it has pretty good rewatchability.

I wholeheartedly second James' review! I tried the show on a review here and so glad I did. Seemed like it would be stupid and lame, but the writing was so tight and direction was so good that KyoAni absolutely succeeded in creating a memorable, really funny and sometimes touching show. The dub carried the comedy well, which is a feat in itself. I can't get over Macaron putting the "druth" seed in Isuzu-chan's curry and the shinanegans that followed!

Amagi Brilliant Park is just that: brilliant! The English dub is as awesome and wacky as I hoped it would be when I got my copy of the show in the mail. This is a comedy worth your time, especially with how it handles the day-to-day tasks and balancing it with the magical hilarity.
To Ashlee: You and your husband's collections are amazing. Keep up the fine work and expand, expand, expand! |

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. I haven't watched the dub nor seen the official DVD subs (they're different to the official streaming dubs is all I know), so maybe that's what Sentai called it? tbh amagri sounds kinda gross and awkward. Where does gRi come from? /quote] I didn't look at the official subtitles yet, but I have listened to the dub. They definitely say Amabri. No g sound to be heard. I ordered the LE of this and I'm really glad I did. It's the most fun I've had with an anime in quite a while. Both me and my boyfriend laughed our asses off. The casting in the dub was spot on. I really can't recommend it enough for those who loved Fomoffu. |

Anyway, my favourite things about the show were Sylphy's antics and Kanie's narcissism/jerkiness, as well as pretty much the entirety of episode 8. |

I finished the BR for Amagi earlier this week and was impressed all over again by this series. For as much fun as it is, it also has a surprising degree of emotional resonance in its climax. Other highlights for me were Sylphy's behavior at just about any point in the series and pretty much all of episode 6 (the one where spoiler[Isuzu gets fed the truth-forcing fruit]), but there wasn't a single episode that I thought fell flat.

That is something I was especially impressed by. Usually in a comedy series you'll have at least one groaner of an episode, but every single entry had something fun and unique to bring to the table, including the OVAs. |

spoiler[Skeleton! Ack!] I just can't stop laughing at spoiler[her antics with Kanie's office chair]. It works hilariously in both languages, a rare case of that. XD |

Her name in Japanese is Sento Isuzu, written 千斗 いすず The normal way to write Isuzu as a name with kanji is 五十鈴, which literally means "Fifty Bells." Hence (switching around to Western name order), her name Isuzu Sento can be read as "Fifty (Bells) Cent". Also note that for Kanie, it matters that the Seiya in his name, 西也, starts with the character for "west." |
