**La'mani** is a character in *Octopath Traveler II*. He is the manager of a theater in New Delsta, and the boss of Agnea’s chapter 2.
## Profile

### Appearance

La'mani is a portly man with blond hair and a beard, wearing a regal black suit and a top hat.

### Personality

La'mani is spoiled and egotistical, believing his theater to be the sole gem of the city and balking at the idea that anyone could compete with him. He is so insecure regarding this sense of superiority that he trashes Gill's tavern after it starts rising in popularity thanks to Agnea's dancing. He is incredibly pathetic and weak, as after his humiliation at Agnea's hand, he attempted to pick a fight with a stray dog, only to end up overwhelmed when its friends came out to attack him.

## Story

He is first seen in Agnea's chapter 2, where he is accosting a man named Gill who attempted to see his show without a ticket. Shortly afterward, he receives word that Gill's tavern is suddenly rising in popularity thanks to a dancer's presence. Jealous of its success, he trashes the tavern, bumping into Agnea beforehand. After Agnea receives word of his actions, she confronts him at his theater and demands an apology, causing a fight.

Afterwards, Agnea is victorious and Dolcinaea reveals herself as witness to the entire thing. She forces La'mani to swear to leave the tavern alone, lest she will refuse to perform at his theater, publicly humiliating La'mani.

Later on in chapter 4, he reappears again, having hired several thugs to kidnap Agnea so he can exact revenge upon her. Right as she's about to reach the stage, she is confronted by La'mani, though she does not recognize him, further enraging him. He reveals that after his humiliation, he got into a fight with a dog in the streets only to be overwhelmed, further humiliating him. Swearing revenge that day, he prepares to attack Agnea once more, only to be immediately floored by the intervention of Veronica, who subdues him with a single strike to the stomach.

After the performance, La'mani confronts her once more, though this time not out of malice, but of sheer amazement. He states that he was utterly moved by her performance and that he has regrettably become her fan, much to the confusion of Agnea.

## Trivia

* During La'mani's second confrontation with Agnea at Merry Hills, the pre-boss interlude will begin to play before being interrupted before the fight actually begins due to Veronica stopping it. This marks the first and currently only time in the series where the game fakes a boss fight with an interlude.
