In the past, I reviewed A Silent Voice both because I loved that anime and because I’d like to support Kyoto Animation in light of the tragic attack in 2019 where many staff lost their lives. I’ll be covering my favorite titles by the company, and the next one up is none other than the hit anime about the girl with the metal hands. Violet Evergarden is truly one of the most unique and emotional anime I’ve seen in a very long time. The anime has a beautiful soundtrack, masterful graphics & cinematography, with a heartfelt and mature story about love, war, and human connection.

Violet Evergarden Story Review

Violet Evergarden is an orphan who was raised to be a soldier and nothing more than a tool of war. Given as a gift to a Major Gilbert, Violet entered the war front at a young age, swiftly killing men twice her age and size. However, Gilbert takes pity on the girl, always trying his best to raise her as he would any other child. He teaches her how to read and write, and tries his best to protect her.

On Love
