| I love love love this movie! I'm so glad to see Violet and Gilbert finally together in animation, it was so beautiful. However, I have to agree with the comments regarding the movie's length, the first half just dragged a little. It was stunning, but a little too slow at times. |
| movie was pretty good no cap. I am kinda a lil disappointed that it didn't improve, it maintained quality but I suppose this was a sequel that stayed true to what it told. anyways really good stuff and that's where it ends I guess. nothing lasts forever, both the series and the dolls. but they shall be remembered, especially that lady's name. Violet Evergarden. ---- came back to say, mfs really put CAM audio over the visuals lmfao. what a desperate time we live in. |

| I finished watching this movie a few minutes ago ... I do not know what to say! ... Just amazing! I do not remember crying like this while watching any movie! I think Yurith increased the value of the film! When he called his best friend in the last moments of his life and apologize to her, I was really impressed! And next (where I think is the peak of violet evergarden!) when his family read his letters (after his death)I cried like a child! So much so that I could not stop crying for a few minutes! In my opinion, that scene was even better than episode 10 of the series! " ... I am glad to have been born your son" "To my younger brother, please be doted by our parents on my behalf." These sentences destroyed me!T_T And finally Violet and Gilbert met! ...."Aishiteru"..... The ending was really impressive! .............................. Violet Evergarden is one of the series that I will never forget! ...Although I will definitely miss this masterpiece series Thank you Violet ... Thank you Kyoto Animation! Thank you so much for making me fall in love with anime more than before by watching this masterpiece series! Thanks for everything! 10/10 ... The best anime movie of 2020 and also the best movie sequel made to date imo! |

| I didn’t like this movie :(( I know a lot of you loved it, but I just can’t stand that Gil seemed so weak and pathetic in this movie when he was so cool in the LN T—T |
| You may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing that we call "failure" is not the falling down, but the staying down |
| COuldnt hold back my tears. I rarely cry tbh. I do feel sad but cring is quite rare for me. Damn it was just sooo beautiful!!! |
 |
| It was literally anything you could have asked for in a violet evergarden movie 10/10 cried a lot, loved it even more. anyone who enjoyed the series has to watch the movie it’s the perfect conclusion. i also watched it in a cinema (yesterday) and let me tell you so many people cried loudly, even my friend that were with me cried a little and i don’t think ive vier seen them cry. |

| This movie is a prime example of how to make an average viewer feel emotionally drained within 2 hours almost without fail. Even after an hour after watching this movie at my local cinema, I still feel exhausted as I type this! XD Either way, this movie got to me easily. I knew what I was expecting with the PV's, but it took about 10 minutes for me to start shedding a tear or two, which became more frequent as the movie went on. Hearing other movie-goers sniffing around me was very common, but it was another sign of how powerful the emotional scene hit us, especially with Yurith's last scenes before he died. That was damn well heartbreaking... The guilt that Gilbert had on him was overwhelming and it was sad that he ended up hurting Violet when she wanted to see him, but thank goodness he was able to change his mind as the movie got to its climax. That scene with him and Violet crying at each other under the moonlit sky drained me of any tears that I had left. I also liked how the story connected into the future and seeing Anna's grand-daughter taking her own journey to find out more about Violet and her trip influencing her to write back to her own parents, which made for a happy ending as well. =) Overall, this movie was a masterpiece, even with one or two nit-picks aside. The voice acting was top notch, the soundtrack was superb and the overall visual production quality was perfect. 10/10 |
| Great movie! They even makes me cry with the same thing again in the beginning... Honestly Yurith's story hits me more but it such a nice ending for Violet! |
 |
| 8/10 I’m a little upset that we probably won’t get a season two. Also I’m confused if Violet and Gilbert are together…in a romantic way… |
| i am not crying, i am not crying, i am not crying... fuck T_T i am just a piece of sobbing emotion tangle T_T why such a simple story can be that touching?! |
xershey said: 8/10 I’m a little upset that we probably won’t get a season two. Also I’m confused if Violet and Gilbert are together…in a romantic way… yeah, i am confused as well, but now i am tend to think that it doesn't matter in this case. it's about love (basically the whole anime), but not romantic, friendship, family.. and i think even if romantic feelings can take place here, that dosn't mean, violet and gilbert are bounded only with that type of love. |
chocomayu said: Great movie! They even makes me cry with the same thing again in the beginning... Honestly Yurith's story hits me more but it such a nice ending for Violet! same! i cried from the beginning, and then yurith's story just slapped me in the face and i started to cry even more T_T |
| A question for those who read the original: if Violet and Gilbert did become an official couple, did they have a family or children? |
 |
| Great movie! Kyoto Animation did a great job by producing such wonderful anime. Finally we get the conclusion of the story of two people in love, as well as many others whose lives which have been impacted tremendously by Violet and her colleagues, and even extended to their next and next generations. I'm so happy with the ending and it is definitely a good closure for those dreams that people desire to come true. |
 |
| I have never wanted to be able to physically hold a fictional character more than I have wanted to be able to physically hold Violet Evergarden. I have cried more tears this day watching this movie than I had cried in the entire year of 2020. This series is something that I will treasure for the rest of my life. To all the people responsible for creating this series: Thank You Very Much. |
 |
| This is it, this is THE BEST anime I've in my whole life |
| y'all should watch haibane renmei |
| This movie could have earned a spot amongst the shittiest I have ever watched without the creative opening and conclusion, and certainly the script is terribly-written. |
Help! I need somebody. Help! Not just anybody. Help! You know I need someone. Helpppppp!  |
| I liked it a lot. I kinda wish we had more of Violet and Gilbert being together. I'm never a fan of the reunion / confession being the climatic finally of something. I'd much rather prefer we get moments of the two together than just a short final glimpse. But overall a nice movie and good ending to the series. |
| Trash ending 🗿🔪 |
 |
| This was a pretty good movie, I was lucky and got to see it in the theaters. I do wish I had the BDs, though, since there are some parts I'd like to watch again. I was also able to find a review with screenshots, great for returning to certain parts of the movie until October, which is when I think the BDs do come out. |
| I haven't shed so many tears in a long time. Absolute masterpiece. 10/10 |
| Despite not being a fan of the franchise, I feel about this movie the same way I do about Thrice Upon a Time, I'm glad this movie exist, if anything for its meta value after the tragedy and stuff. That aside, I always found the themes and intentions of the franchise to be a positive, but it suffered of meandering with one off secondary characters with, to me, rather unimportant issues, messy directing, character regression and by being very tryhard as a tearjerker. The movie had all its intentions, focused on the main story, tied the secondary characters to the main story with well made parallelisms, closed Violet's arc and the main plot in a satisfying way after all the previous build up, with competent directing, and wasn't as tryhard as a tearjerker, thus it was more effective as an emotional film, it wasn't as manipulative as the series and specials, or other KyoAni works. The plot is still a sappy love story with convenient events that I can't help but see as gentle brooming to some point, but I can respect the movie for all of the above. |
| What a great ending for the series! Was thinking on watching later, but it turned out into a sad evening =/ While expected more from the main season, some episodes were amazing, but others felt really out of place. It was really inconsistent, but that was a really good conclusion. Yurith's story was really sad. Seems like Violet got through many similar situations :( Was surprised by the small comedy moment. I think it was pretty funny esp for just a small addition to the sad atmosphere. Also the thumbs up =/ Thought that the scene in ending them staying in the water was a bit too long, but obv really glad they were able meet again! Overall 9/10 Really liked this work from KyoAni, but still think it could've been better. Patiently waiting for Kumiko's graduation!!! |

| That was really good, thumbs up for the amount of effort put into the animation and the ambience, it really shows. There wasn't a single scene I found to be ugly or displeasing visual-wise, and the composition carries so much emotion that you could really feel what the characters did. Joy, sadness, remorse, all feelings that you can empathize with and almost cry... almost Somehow that didn't happen in my case. I got where the emotion from Violet meeting Gilbert was coming from as well as the side stories yet they didn't leave me with that big of an impact. I was very close to break though but something felt missing and I can’t put my finger on what it is. During the original run of the series I had the same issue. Maybe it’s me not fully buying that he wasn’t dead or not getting that attached to the cast. It might also just be a "me" problem so take this take with a grain of salt. In any case, I can safely recommend it to those you enjoyed the anime as lots of references are made to it, even the special. You might wanna check that one out first in case you've missed it. |

 Wow I really wish they would have released this movie shortly after the series ended. I have vivid memories of the side story movie and that was wonderful. I only gave the series an 8 but with this movie it is easily one of my favorite love stories I've ever seen. So happy to see that things can end this way, even for people who become broken. |
| the movie was so good.... thanks once again for making this and it wrapped up pretty nicely |
 |
| This movie made me cry so much. It really made a great work combining a great art, and an epic history, a really gold end for this. |
| I knew they would deliver and they indeed did. Amazing ending, with an even more amazing message. |
| Wow. Waiting for this movie was worth it. What an amazing movie. Most beautiful animation. Thank you, KyoAni. The soundtracks were great as well. Seems like they didn't use the ost from the show. All in all, from the show to this movie - it was an astounding experience. Goodbye, Violet Evergarden. |
 |
| It was never about a question whether I would cry, but how much I would. And that, well, was aplenty, it's good that the bin was right beside me to save some time and whatnot. Another heartfelt and delightful story to wrap up proceedings for the series, and Kyoto Animation certainly didn't hold back one bit to display their finesse in the Animation/Artstyle side of things. All the intricate details and stunning backgrounds, thank you KyoAni! In particular, the scenes of the waters in the ocean. My lord, they were simply 10/10. I wonder how I'm going to be able to focus on anything else when I watch the Free movies in the near future lol. First few minutes of the episode featuring the future descendant of the familiar characters really set the movie up and this kind of made some of the moments and scenes more memorable. Especially, that stamp that is only available on the island. That's such a fine way to close the franchise, honestly. I remember the early promotional materials of the anime having that visual, and that just put a smile on my face. Yuris's story at first seemed atypical and thus 'okay' in my eyes but then the way his final moments were handled completely changed my impression. Props to Iris and Benedict for all their efforts and I'm glad he was able to say what he wanted to his friends. His family's smiles in the end made it all the more touching, as well. Violet being able to comprehend and decipher some of his feelings earlier was a nice touch too, she's come really far over the course of the series and I'm glad things ended nicely for her too. More on that, now. To be honest, I could totally see where Gilbert was coming from, all that regret and guilt. But it took a little too much time, man. At least the elder brother was there to make amends as well as give him the final push though. When Violet plunged into the ocean, I was hoping that she could swim in that outfit but it didn't turn out to be as shallow lol. Would've loved to see more screentime of the two but I like how they didn't try to make it overly romantic and such, so I'll give them that. Post credit scene giving us a snippet was much appreciated, for one. Got to give the winger in Hodgins-san some well-deserved credit though! "You idiot", the passion in that was fiery. On a more serious note, that shot of him recalling back to the times when Violet used to struggle with using a spoon, fork and knife to eat really got me. Some of the comedic moments (child gender preference) was quite hilarious too. Some more development with Cattleya-san would've been a lot cooler, however. Surprised we didn't get to see much of the side characters here. Some more up-to-date info of the Bartlett sisters would've been especially nice. Solid 9/10! Thank you to Kyoto Animation for producing this dime of a franchise with such heart and love! It took me a while to watch this (thanks Netflix) but I'm glad I was able to keep up with such a fantastic story. Certainly one of my all-time favs! |

| I had to hold back my tears a lot. This movie was magnificent from start to finish. From the production, to the directions, soundtrack, and of course the screenwriting. This is most likely my favorite anime movie ever. Strong 9/10 and I might put in my sacred 10/10 list later. |
