Expectations for Violet Evergarden
| Hard to say with so little info, but it is a Kyoani anime so Im looking foward to it |
| "I lost all of what you could call feelings of love. They weren't sealed, so they can't be released. They weren't broken, so they can't be fixed. That which is lost, cannot be recovered." Shiba Tatsuya "There are no regrets. If one can be proud of one's life, one should not wish for another chance." Saber "No matter what happens, no matter how crazy things get, I'll always try to restore balance." Korra "It's madness to let others take what's yours and accept it blindly." Baatar Jr "Instinct is a lie, told by a fearful body, hoping to be wrong." Zaheer "Partner in crime, partner in time" Chloe Price and Max Caulfield |
agreed XD but i still want to see it! the CM video looks awesome so... |

o_Sekai_o said: I'm sincerly worry about it. When Kyoani last year released "Hibike! Euphonium" I was very happy , because finally after all this time they decided to seriously invest their resources in both script that technical apparatus, creating a serious and mature product that never stops to classic "cute girls doing cute stuff" (which I am not totally opposed). But Kyoani, with "Myriad Colors Phantom World", it got me back serious doubts about their mentality. Maybe it can't be totally wrong, but I think that they're not changed at all after Euphonium. So, each time they announce a new product, I go into a panic because of my conflicting expectations. And especially with "Violet Evergarden", I have serious doubt about it. The released CM is spectacular from the technical point of view, animation are amazing and i really liked the song, but I hope Kyoani isn't creating false expectations, even because I haven't read the novel. (Sorry for my bad English -.-") KyoAni produce a bunch of great anime... everything is fain, they are great. They fuck up once and they produce and average anime, BANG they lose the trust of comunity! Like seriously peoples, every studio has successes and their failures. Also what are you worried about? That this s gona be moe? Does this trailer looks like one made for a moe or cute anime? Also KyoAni is well known for producing mostly Silence of Life anme, so I don't understand why do you expect them to change after Euphorium. Sure it sold well, but it also sold less than the ammount KyoAni is usually selling. |

The animation may not be on par with the CM that was released but the setting is really intriguing. And as a fan of episodic anime like MushiShi or Natsume, I am seriously looking forward to this. Being the first grand prize winner of the KyoAni awards makes my expectations a lot more! And Violet is so pretty. That alone makes me wanna watch this animated! Is there any romance in the anime.?? As far as I have read, there is no romance as in between lovers. That romance is more platonic. Gilbert and Violet shares a relationship that of a father and a daughter. |

| Considering the source material won the grand prize in the last KyoAni competition that almost no other materials could ever won before for the previous years of competition, I bet there's something more into this series that makes me want to watch this even more aside from those orgasmic visuals, you hype me now KyoAni |
 |
| KyoAni is kind of hit or miss for me. Don't know the source, but the art is absolutely gorgeous. Decently high hopes I guess. |
| I hope this one has a decent story.. kyoani used to be my favorite studio, chuunibyo and tamako love story was one of my favorite back then... but musaigen kinda let me down :( |
 |
| I like almost all from kyoani ( i like moe so yeah) very hyped for this |
 |
| Ever since Nichijou (10/10) and Hyouka (8/10): Chuunibyou: 6/10 Amagi: Die pls Kyoukai no Kanata: 6.5/10 Hibike: 7/10 Phantom world: Die pls Kobayashi-Chan: pretty good, still undecided on score but could break the curse of 7 So while I hope it's got a story and characters to match its visuals, I'm just going to keep affording myself 'medium' expectations as my previously favourite studio (now replaced by Doga Kobo) has work cut out for them in the areas of production where it matters most - substance. kronopy said: KyoAni produce a bunch of great anime... everything is fain, they are great. They fuck up once and they produce and average anime, BANG they lose the trust of comunity! "Once". They've been pretty consistent in failing to meet expectations since Hyouka. That's 5 years, and 5 years is a lot. Not to say their post-Hyouka anime (excluding Amagi and Phantom world) have zero value, but they have mostly been more style than substance and bereft of meaning. |

| KyoAni Never turn me down at least, after all it's my #1 studio. I mean if this didn't went to be something amazing and unforgettable, it would be at least mediocre one. |
 |
| I'll be watching this for sure, but I'm not that interested, ost of their LN adaptations weren't THAT good :< Just stick to the manga and vn, pls. |
  |
| I can't believe that almost 1 year has passed since the first PV. Time flew pretty fast and they sure take their time with this project. |
 |
| I like how most of the users here judge the anime without even knowing what will it be about. Funny I guess lmao Anyways, I don't have too high expectations, but I surely have good ones. Putting the animation aside, the vibes it gives are pretty good, considering it's a "compilation" of short stories. |
| My expectations are low, but I have yet to watch the recently lauded Hibike! Euphonium. My last Kyoani experience was the ever-bland Amagi Brilliant Park. Fanatique said: I like how most of the users here judge the anime without even knowing what will it be about. Funny I guess lmao Kyoani is one of the few cases where doing so is justified, seeing that the studio itself has greater control over the whole process than is the norm in the industry. Where you can mostly only hold the director and production committees accountable for screw ups elsewhere, Kyoani itself can mostly be held accountable for their screw ups. Given that it really shouldn't be surprising or "amusing" that Kyoani's rep of gorgeous visuals and mediocre writing (or at least, mediocre writing once they're done tampering with the original story) would carry over into an expectations thread like this one to some degree. Having the director of the mixed rep Kyoukai no Kanata on board doesn't help either. |

Everyone makes value judgements when they check something out to decide "Am I interested in this?" and "Is this worth my time?". If people didn't write off stuff then they would be watching a ton of turd nuggets they loathe just to continually "make sure they were right", which is far more stupid than writing off a show you don't think you will enjoy and being wrong on occasion. The loss of a small handful of decent to good shows is well worth saving yourself the frustration of watching loads of shows that really are a waste of your time. Nobody here is saying the show "is" bad or anything like that; complaining about that would be different since it would indeed require watching the series at least somewhat to "know". But in the context of sharing your expectations for a series it is what you're suggesting that's unreasonable. |

Not as much in this thread, but in others there's a lot. |
|
| Very excited, trying to keep expectations reasonable though. The story sounds promising. From the summaries I've heard about the plot, it seems it will be about this auto memory doll Violet Evergarden assisting her company's clients with various requests and sort of gaining her own humanity in the process. It appears to be set in wartime as well. Potential tear-jerker here, we will have to wait and see... |
 |
| This series seems to be(come) very good. Watched today the first episode and can't wait for more. |
| Completely shit and pandering to otakus, but with the plus side of being pretty. Probably on the level of Musaigen. |
| I put medium expectations, because judging from the trailer it didn't seem all that amazing. |
  Crying doesn't mean you're weak. Enduring doesn't mean you're strong. |
| Oh, new PV is out! |

How am I a troll? Because I don't like a studio? Get over it, people have different opinions than you. I've given them enough shots to know I don't like them, other than the animation. |
| Hoping it'll be more than just great animation+surpar episodic episodes. Average expectations like I always have for KyoAni series. |

|
| I'm hype asf for this! The trailer looked promising. The visual novel won an award from Kyoto animation back in 2014. So it will probably do well. |

(Sorry for my bad English -.-") I hope so as well. Got to see the first episode, which has hyped me up quite a lot. It was a brilliant first episode. I rarely give a rating after just one episode, but I haven't seen such a good first episode for a long time. I really can't wait to see more of it. If the level of art/animation/storytelling/characters/etc stays the same this will be an outstanding work. |

Get back to me when they make a good one. A Silent Voice Kobayashi's Dragon Maid Hibike Euphonium, both seasons Nichijou Hyouka (I don't like as much as other people do, but it's above average) |
SuperRed said: A Silent Voice Kobayashi's Dragon Maid Hibike Euphonium, both seasons Nichijou Hyouka (I don't like as much as other people do, but it's above average) Btw, the first episode already aired a few times on different occasions - which were anime conventions. Legally. Didn't like everything from Kyoani as well, but there were some good shows indeed. I liked these quite a lot (as well): Clannad: After Story, Hyouka(+1), Koe no Katachi (+1) & Lucky☆Star |
| Bring it to Indonesia!!! After i watch it I'll give my opinion hehe Seems very impressive though based on the PV |
| Life isn't as fun and easy as anime. Watch anime to bring that fun!! |
| KyoAni is one of the best animation studios. Clannad After Story, Hibike and Hyouka are pretty good. Clannad AS is one of my favourites. The writing department, however, might be lackluster. It is like giving a Ferrari to your granma to drive. You probably won't see its full potential. The Ferrari will still look amazing even if the driver lacks ability to drive it (screenwriter). Musaigen itself is garbage-tier and someone from KyoAni was probably drunk when they decided to adapt it. With the amount of resources and time they are pulling for this anime, I can allow me to hype myself. I hope they succeed in give me a punch of feels like Clannad AS. |

Only a few thousand people have gotten to see the episodes at this point. The general audience, over 99% of us, are still in the dark. |

| Well from the synopsis it makes me remember of letter bee, or tegami bachi in jp, i just hope it gives us a lot of feels too. |
