Not only is the venue a run-down house, but the supposed date is just a recruiting tour where Sento and Princess Latifa Fleuranza, the theme park's director, ask him to become the new manager of the park. Their cause for wishful thinking? As stipulated in a land-use contract, Amagi has less than three months to fulfill a quota of 500,000 visitors, or the park will be closed for good and a greedy real-estate firm will redevelop the property.

Entrusted with the hopes and dreams of this far-off magical country, Seiya now has to use his many abilities to get Amagi back to her feet, or see it crumble before his eyes.
