The English Translation of "Extra Magic Hour" from "Amagi Brilliant Park"

Look at the sky, it's Magic Hour! Like fitting puzzle pieces together, connecting different shapes, trying to put them together. Suddenly, the scenery that was invisible when it was scattered appears right in front of me and starts to move.

With every new encounter, change my world, the world changes.

A bustling, incessant music! My heart that was asleep resonates. You and I, a gradation, dyeing the sky. Surely, what we were looking for was a time when we could laugh like this, gathering everything—the rainbow, the stars, and the sun. It's an endless Magic Hour.

When I acknowledge my true self, I realize there is kindness. If it feels empty, surely, there is plenty of love to accept into my heart. That's what it means to have room.

Because no one is perfect, I need someone, and I met you.

A dazzling, bustling Parade! Away from yesterday, you and I, a celebration, coloring our cheeks. Always, I wish in my heart for it to never end. Cherry blossoms, beaches, fallen leaves, and snow—I want to see them with you forever. It's an endless Magic Hour.

No matter what happens, in this world where nothing is strange, how much longer will the magic last? My heart probes deeply, still not enough. Don't go, Magic Hour.

The sky I'm looking up at now is a color I'll never see again. Remember this transient gradation. Even trivial events and casual words will someday turn into irreplaceable things after they disappear…?

A bustling, incessant music! My heart that was closed resonates. You and I, a gradation, dyeing the sky. Surely, what we were looking for was a time when we could laugh like this, gathering everything—the shining things. It's an endless Magic Hour.
