Amagi Brilliant Park Novels Gets Anime by Kyoto Animation

Kadokawa's Fantasia Bunko imprint (Fujimi Shobo) announced on Wednesday that an anime adaptation of the Amagi Brilliant Park light novel series by Shoji Gatoh (Full Metal Panic!) has been green-lit. Kyoto Animation is producing the anime.

The "slapstick drama" begins with Seiya Kanie, a high school boy who is invited on a date in an amusement park by a mysterious beautiful transfer student named Isuzu Sento. He is introduced to Ratifa, a "real" princess and the park's manager, and is asked to be the acting manager of this "disappointing amusement park in the Tokyo suburbs."

Gatoh started the series with illustrations by Yuka Nakajima (Listen to Me, Girls. I Am Your Father!/Papa Kiki!) last February, and Fantasia Bunko will publish the third volume on Saturday.
