Synopsis

The Great War finally came to an end after four long years of conflict; fractured in two, the continent of Telesis slowly began to flourish once again. Caught up in the bloodshed was Violet Evergarden, a young girl raised for the sole purpose of decimating enemy lines. Hospitalized and maimed in a bloody skirmish during the War's final leg, she was left with only words from the person she held dearest, but with no understanding of their meaning.

Recovering from her wounds, Violet starts a new life working at CH Postal Services after a falling out with her new intended guardian family. There, she witnesses by pure chance the work of an "Auto Memory Doll," amanuenses that transcribe people's thoughts and feelings into words on paper. Moved by the notion, Violet begins work as an Auto Memory Doll, a trade that will take her on an adventure, one that will reshape the lives of her clients and hopefully lead to self-discovery.

Expectation: 7
Reality: 10

Absolutely amazing production by Kyoto Animation. Never would I have thought that a 13 episode series would get me so deeply interested about a characters development. Every episode pulled at different heart strings from distress to love, from depression to beauty. Episode 10 especially has to be one of the best stand-alone epsiodes of any anime. Whether you've see the first half or if you go into it blind, that 20 minutes of animation will bring a tear to your eye.

The concept for this show is really interesting and felt different from anything else. Definately one to look back on and rewatch ...

Mixed Feelings
The good about this show it Violet herself, quality of art and music.

Bad is almost everything else.

This show tries to be "right, nice and normal" way too much, just like Nibutani Shinka from Chunibyo. It panders to boomers pacifist hippy views way too much. As if just stopping all wars going to just magically solve everything. This is some sort of conservative dis/utopia (not my kind of utopia) show, that Hayayo Miazaki and One Piece keep making for their fans. Everyone here respects parents, elderly and women. Most men are filled with some form of guilt and most women are all too confident about ...

I am so sad to say that Violet Evergarden was shockingly bad. I really, really don't like shitting on things but I feel my criticisms about this show strongly enough that I'm okay with stepping on a few toes if it means saving people from wasting their time on this.

I want to be as fair as I can to Violet Evergarden before I rip it apart, so I will preface the critique with the praise I can give it. This show is absolutely beautiful to look at, any given still shot will look like it's straight out of an artbook. The characters ...
