Soccer is the answer!
Have you finally lost your mind?
No!
Look at this.
You all know of the stadium in the southern park?
We'll host a soccer match.
It's the only way we can reach the 100,000 goal in ten days.
Are you suggesting we host a professional game?
I am.
The stadium's maximum capacity is 50,000.
This is a real chance to boost visitor count.
As most of you already know,
we're going to fall just short of the 500,000 visitor goal at current rates.

But if we can add a soccer game's attendance to that...
Tricen!
Right!
With orders from our head-manager, I've been scouring for information.

To put it simply,
11. Nothing to Worry About!
I've been looking into events we could host
that would be perfect for the stadium.
I never heard anything about this.
Well, I didn't want to disappoint you in case it never panned out.
However,
I got a call last night of a possible lead!
Grandila Tokyo
This is the home field of Grandila Tokyo, a club in the J1 League.
They've been busy with replacing the sod on the field,
but due to delays, they won't have it ready for their aniversary match July 31st.
Anniversary match?
July 31st is the date the club was founded.
The annual dream match that pits older players vs new players,
apparently it draws a crowd of 50,000 each year.
As such, they're desperately looking for a stadium they can move the game to.
We'll host it here at the park.
But aren't sanctioned stadiums the only ones that can host professional games?
This isn't an official game.
There shouldn't be a problem of us hosting it.
We're heading to the meeting now.
We'll be very busy if we succeed.
So be prepared to work hard!
Safe

Are you sure you want me to be Amaburi's representative?
They won't listen if they think a high schooler's in charge.
You're wearing one of those amulets, aren't you?
Of course.
So long as I wear this, nobody will think I look conspicuous.
Kanie-kun.
Be honest.
Do you think we really have a chance at this?
I don't know.
What do you think?
It's certainly big enough.
It's adequate don't you think?
It's perfect for your required capacity measures.
This stadium was built quite a while back, right?
Ah right. Right around twenty years ago.
It looks like it was seldom used though.
Has it been maintained well?
Yes, um... let's see...
It's also a good distance away from station access.
Can you really get 50,000 people to there?
W-Well, we'll try our best to accommodate them...
The main issue is field condition.
The top priority for any soccer venue is turf maintenance.
I'm sure you know this.
O-Of course!
The field is absolutely important, yes.
He had no idea, huh?
But your stadium is multipurpose.
Just how exactly have the fields been maintained?
I-I'm the chief of sales, so I'm not familiar with the procedures...
Well, we thank you for taking your time to come here.
Eh?
We'll contact you soon with regards to our decision,
so that'll be all for toda-
W-Wait!
Please wait!
Could you please take another look at the documents!?
Please!
First, in regards to maintenance.
The park staff have been keeping the stadium in a readied condition.
We'd be able to host a game tomorrow if you needed to.
Oh?
Access won't be a problem either.
We can ask the local bus company to provide a shuttle bus service from the station.
Also, our parking lot has 5,000 spaces available.
Hmm...
As for the field,
the park has a specialist grounds keeper.
We've perfectly maintained the grass surface in a readied state,
so there is no need to be concerned.
Really?
You'll be able to tell if you come and inspect it.
That being said though...
we're just really hesitant to entrust this game to an unproven venue.
None of this is important, though.
How much it costs is what matters.
Our team's payroll is astronomical.
It's bankrupting us!
That's why the sod replacement was delayed.
We might not be able to meet the payroll this time.
We need to bring them down in price.
But still, we can't show them we're nearly broke.
There's something else I forgot to mention.
We've decided to wave all rent charges and such for the use of our stadium facilities.
It's free!?
That's not all.
We'll also cover the costs for
bus rentals, stadium security, advertising,
printing the tickets and flyers,
and other various expenses, within reason of course.
You'll even cover costs?
Yes.
In other words, we'd like to be the exclusive sponsor of this game.
Sh-Should you really be offering all of that?
Just how much are you offering to cover?
Right around this much should do.
Well then?
You can't be serious offering to cover that much.
I can assure you it's no joke.
Our head-manager has ordered us to offer this.
But still, this is...
From our standpoint, the offer is terrific...
...but you stand to take a tremendous finical loss.
What our head-manager wants nothing more is to attract more new visitors.
She said we should welcome soccer fans even at the expense of our profits.
That said, we just have one stipulation request.
And that is?
Everyone who comes for the soccer game must go though the park's main gate.
Of course, everyone who already has a ticket will pay nothing.
But for what reason?
It says here the stadium has its own dedicated gates.
It's a complicated reason,
but do understand this isn't something we will back down on.
Well, there shouldn't be a problem with that anyway.
So how about it?
Would you like to first come inspect the stadium
and our well maintained field?
Are you sure that was a good idea; offering to pay for everything?
I know you're aware that Amaburi's finances are deep in the red.
I have a plan.
Don't worry about it.
And what about the field?
What "specialist grounds keeper?"
Amaburi has a professional.
A professional at raising flowers, that is.
All right!
Just leave the field maintenance to Miii!
I knew that would happen.
Prepare to attack!
Charge!
Mission accomplished!
That went well.
Yeah.
This should be more than satisfactory.
Your field was impeccable.
Please tell us how you maintain it.
Well there were a few things that weren't ideal,
but this should be more than satisfactory.
There's barely enough time to prepare,
but let's get through it together.
Thank you very much.
We'll be working as hard as we can to get ready.
We thank you very much for coming.
Not at all.
Let's make this a success.
That was exhausting.
Sento, gather the entire cast on Castle Maple's rooftop after closing.
It's time to tell them.
Got it.
Tell us what?
Quiet down!
I have an announcement to make to all of you.
I'll get to the point.
The southern area will be sold off.
AMAGI BRILLIANT PARK
S-Sell off the southern area?
That's right.
We've already made the decision.
After looking for a buyer for a while,
we finally got a good offer put in a few days ago.
When the land is officially purchased,
we'll have a large influx of capital.
It'll go a long ways to paying off our debts.
Man, you never stop with the surprise announcements.
The southern area's almost as big as the main park!
And yet you're...
...selling it.
I thought we always had plans to open up more attractions there
once we had became financially stable again.
Me too.
Yeah, and I had hoped to see this theme park double in size after we had.
That future never would have happened!
This park would have closed long before then!
Right now, survival is our utmost priority, and sacrifices must be made.
This is no time for hopes and plans for the future.
I... don't think it's a bad idea.
Moffle-san...
Land that's expensive and useless, is pointless to hold on to.
Agreed.
I'm in favor too.
As chief accountant, hearing a plan to resolve our financial woes is welcomed.
I guess so.
It'll be upsetting to see that land go though.
But the park needs this to survive.
If this is what it takes to keep us working together, I'll agree to it.
Sometimes you must lose a battle, to win a war.
She's right. No complaints here.
Indeed.
We must survive first and foremost.
All right!
That is all!
There are nine days to go until July 31st,
and we have a lot of work ahead of us!
Forget about going home!
Now, get to work!
Yeah!

How are the preparations going?
It's hard work, but we should be able to make it on time.
I see. That's good then.
Uh, sorry.
About what?
I decided to sell off half our property.
I know I informed you beforehand,
but it still doesn't make me feel any better.
Are you still concerned about that?
You're this park's head-manager.
We'll follow your orders to the letter.
Also, is there something I can do to help?
I feel bad not doing anything when you're all working so hard.
Don't worry about it. Just get some rest.
That's all you need to do for now.
But...
Are you saying you can't follow your head-manager's orders?
Very well.
Rest assured.
My leadership will make sure this park survives.
And starting in August it'll only get more-
Right. Your memories get reset on August 1st.
Even if this park survives...
Please don't let it bother you so much.
It happens every year.
That's what your life's been like for so long, huh?
Yes.
When midnight of August 1st arrives,
my body and memories are reset.
Last year, my uncle explained everything to me.
The reason for me being here...
And everything that's happened since...
I probably met the Digerries and Ruby a long time ago,
but I don't remember it.
I see.
But as long as this park exists, I'll remain alive here.
Always and forever.
So...
When you resign being the head-manager, please come to visit every so often.
I'll still remember how to make croquettes.
Right.
I look forward to having some.
Right.
And we can ride the ferris wheel again.
Uh... No.. Not that one.
Oh, right. I'm sorry.
Yo, it's been a while.
What do you want?
I'm here to check up on the gate counter.
You're really trying your hardest aren't you?

It looks like we'll just be able to make it.
Without your help.
Just so we're clear,
the deadline specified in the contract is closing time July 31st: at 9PM.
No more extensions will be given.
Keep that in mind.
The soccer game starts at six.
There's nothing to worry about.
I'll have someone to come over that day,
at exactly 9PM on July 31st...
I can't wait for the results.
Kanie-kun, it's time.
Yep.
Open the gates!
Let's do this!
Oh wow!

Please send more help over to the lost kids center!
I'm so exhausted.
I've never see a crowd that big unless it was at Ariake.
This has got to be some kind of attendance record.
I can't even move anymore.
I wish someone would give me a massage.
Please don't look my way you creep.

That looks to be the last bus load of guests.
