Art cards are official sketches and concept art of characters. In this case, Violet Evergarden.
if you want to follow her here's the link to her post
Does anyone know what the soundtrack in the first episode is called? When Violet's report flies out of the window and around a town?
My new tattoo of our girl Violet 💕 I’m in love!!
So this thing has been on my mind every since I watch these two shows , is there any official statement regarding this ?
Why is everyone hating on the ending? I want to understand what's wrong with it bc for me it was perfect
Next week’s episode of the Quest for the Best podcast where Tristan (aka Arkada “Glass Reflection”), Geoff Thew (“Mother’s Basement”), and Miles Atherton (White Box Entertainment/Anime by the Numbers/guy who periodically shows up in r/anime comment sections to correct your wildly incorrect beliefs about the anime industry) review and rank the best anime of all time will cover Violet Evergarden.
So check out the episode next Monday when it airs and maybe fit in a rewatch this week if you can, and see where it ends up on their list of the 100 Best Anime.. Looks like they may just be covering the series and not the movies, but they’ve been inconsistent on bundling multiple seasons or movies together in the past, so we’ll see.
My friend wanted to write letters so I took my chance to finally get the C.H. Postal stamp. It worked out great, the wax comes off the stamp cleanly. It looks so good, might write more in the future just so I can use the stamp.
The botched one was because the wax dripped on the envelope still on fire so that caused a panic.
NOW (finished watching it for the first time today) I'm pretty sure she doesn't BUT
in the first episode Cattleya is really touchy with Claudia Hodgins, and he says "I can't take you out this month" along with them saying "dolls go anywhere they are requested", going far distances just to write a letter? and the way she was dressed made me think auto memory dolls were doing WAY more than just writing letters 😭
I could feel Gilbert's emotions as I was watching the movie. It was a beautiful movie.
Just finished a Lacuna Coil AMV using clips from the anime, Violet Evergarden. The episode whose scenes I composed this video from is widely regarded as one of the greatest single episodes of any anime in history, as well as one of the most tearjerking. The story follows a mother who is deathly ill and her seven-year-old daughter Anne, who is the focal point of the video.
SPOILERS for that episode. Hope you enjoy!
Looking for female lead only and share similar plots/theme which can make even a viking shed tears💦
Similar anime I've watched:
Frieren
Maquia
Wolf children
Vivy
CH Postal is in construction the island needs to be flatened more but in time it will all come into place
making the Post office a little bigger so i can make all the rooms as they are in the show, planing on making mountains and the houses around it and most of the iconic buildings like the doll learning place they sent violet. For the CH Post Office im taking inspiration from other people that have made the building but also from the RL building thanks for the support and will update when il make some more progress
The quest for the meaning of love.
First time posting a cosplay on reddit so I’m kind of nervous but this is my Violet Evergarden cosplay, I absolutely adore this series. I wanted to find a place that would do the beauty of the animation justice.
This is all being said in jest, I have no hatred for VE or the fandom.
Warning spoilers: anime and movie.
I watched the anime when it first came out in 2018 and remember heavily feeling Violet's pain and what it was like to have a void that only a person could fix. I rewatched the anime this week and movie and now that its been 8 years I have been thinking of it differently.
Now the age gap thing is throwing me off but putting that aside for discussions sake as in the movie Violet is 18 and an adult.
I do see Gil's arc, he starts as a commander who takes in Violet but while he doesn't see her as a tool and even tries to get her to stay behind, he ultimately ends up using her as a solider in battle when they are in the thick of war and she is the only chance of survival. He does feel immensely guilty in doing so and resorting to that. He fakes his death because he thinks it would be best for her individual growth if he wasn't around. He later rejects her when she comes back to the island. Then he finally after reading her letter sees her as an equal. Versus focusing on his own injuries the most injured he seems is knowing that Violet lost her arms because she was protecting him.
Yet the ending doesn't sit right with me. I felt conflicted when I first saw it. I am glad Violet is happy and was not only able to express her own feelings but help so many others express their love along the way.
I don't think a character has to be perfect to be likeable. Gil literally put all his effort into rebuilding the island of men he hurt in battle versus taking accountability in his own life. I don't fault him for how he dealt with his PTSD but I think he avoided things to the point of when was he ever going to atone for his own actions versus pretending to be someone else.
I wouldn't have faulted him if he ran off to the island for a short amount of time but it seemed like he faked his death for 4 years. His mom fully died and his brother was alive and he still didn't make an appearance.
I wish that he didn't ask Violet to stay on the island because he built a life for himself there because it felt like she was leaving everything she built for herself behind. I wish they explained her reason to stay on the island more. I know an auto memories doll was becoming an occupation that was going to be out of service, but that doesn't change that Cattleya, Hodgins, Iris, and Benedict were her found family. It's like they all picked up the pieces of Violet and helped her become human while Gil just was able to reap the benefits of her healed. I know that is a little black/white way of seeing things but I just felt such a strong connection to the found family aspect of it all it was hard for Violet to not be in their lives anymore.
I did feel for Gil when he rejected Violet and told her that her life would be better without him in the movie. Or the scene where an islander casually says her name and everyones walking back and he is just frozen in place. However, I wish we were given more present scenes of them so we could understand it now. I am not saying they could not grow into liking the present versions of each other but as it left off it seemed like both were stuck on the past idea of one another versus who they are today.
I am going to rewatch the movie again at some point because I was really thrown off by the reveal that Gil was alive that I feel like maybe I didn't pick up on things and just was rushing to see how it will end.
