Violet Evergarden...
It took a while, but, I finally watched Violet Evergarden...
Throughout Violet Evergarden, our heroine has a great deal of difficulty expressing her emotions -- she typically talks in a rather bland tone and her military training sometimes shows at the most inappropriate time. The first few episodes reveal some of Violet's efforts to cope with life outside of military service. The next few episodes showcase Violet's unique talents as an Auto Memory Doll. The last few episodes deal with revelations from Violet's past and her desire to break from her past life as a soldier and her efforts to forge a new path.
Violet Evergarden has some red ink, but, is not overly gory. In flashbacks, we see how Violet lost her hands in very brutal detail. In the latter part of the series, as military tensions rise and the prospect of war looms, there is some bloodshed. Some of the stories in the series are deeply personal, tragic and heart breaking, while others are more uplifting. A particularly moving episode involves a young soldier who dies in Violet's arms after dictating his final letters. There are no naughty bits to be found in the series and no fan service. Overall, I liked Violet Evergarden quite a lot and would give the series a 5 out of 5.
By the way, my favorite song in the Violet Evergarden soundtrack is the instrumental track, Torment. The Violet Evergarden soundtrack (Automemories) has 47 tracks on two discs and I liked 11 tracks for a total of 23.4% and a 2 out of 4.
I started watching Violet Evergarden a while ago, but, at first, there were too many distractions around and I couldn't give the series the kind of attention it really needed. The series follows the exploits of Violet, a former soldier attempting to find her way in the world now that the war is over. Violet is an orphan who was raised by the military from a very young age and is a feared combatant on the battlefield. After the war, Violet begins working at a post office. Violet soon discovers that there are many people who cannot write and need the services of expert writers aka Auto Memory Dolls, to write out the feelings of their clients. Violet decides that she wants to be an Auto Memory Doll and help people and perhaps help herself in the process.TV Series
