Okey, I'll keep this review as brief and too the point as possible.
The animation is just stunning. This anime is just gorgeous with a capital G.
Voice acting is perfectly chosen. Weather you're watching the sub or the dub it's great.
If I had too point out one negative thing it's the fact that some people may find the first two or three episodes relative slow. But please do yourself a favor and keep watching. As soon as episode 3 or 4 the series starts too click.
The story is a writers Magnus opus. The characters have convincing motivations, backstories etc. And then I'm not even talking about the events in the episodes themselves.
From episode 6 to 13 it's one big cry-fest. The stories are so heartfelt and heartbreaking I had to cry at least a few times every episode. Anyone with their heart in the right spot would cry I think.
EPISODE 10 is without a doubt one of the best things you'll have ever seen.
Watch this now.

This is by far, in terms of an anime series especially, one of the most beautifully animated pieces i've ever seen. the colours, the animation, the rendering of landscapes, ugh, absolute eye candy. as for the plot, i'd say that two episodes in, i was getting quite frustrated by violet's barely-human nature, but i'm glad i stuck through! i'd definitely recommend this in general :))) but, i wish some characters were developed more, and that each person's story (violet's clients, i guess) wasn't just limited to each episode, because it did kind of feel like 'filler' in a way, or that they were meaningless (didn't have the most impact, at the end). i know that the show did establish a recurring theme of war but i think it wasn't enforced well enough to make all the episodes feel fully tied together? even violet's character could've been developed more during the first half. but that's just me nitpicking, this was still a beautiful anime if you stick through to the bitter end, super happy to have watched it :'>
Okay, here goes my 3rd review. Violet Evargarden is a young girl known as "the weapon" during the war, because of her insane skills at the battlefield. After the war is over, Violet starts working as an "Auto Memories Doll" in order to understand her commander´s last words. Dolls are hired by regular people in order to express in a letter their thoughts for someone, the best as posible. The episodes are focus on Violet´s job as a Doll, the things she learn from them, and the story behind her strange behaviour. I think that´s all i should say about the plot.
My philosophy: you can always find something in an anime that you´ve never seen before, and for me that´s enough to make it a worthy watch (which is why i´d never tell anyone not to watch an anime). However, there are some things you need to know before you watch. This anime is not yet finished, but after the last episodes i think i´ve seen enough to make a worthy review.
The animation is one of the bests out there. The colours and the amount of detail in every environment is a pleasure to watch. The soundtrack fits perfectly for the series. I wouldn´t say it´s an amazing soundtrack but it does its job quite well.
The storyline is not very atractive itself, but it´s execution is flawless. The main theme in Violet is the character´s development (her development in specific), which i must say that considering this is a 13 episodes series, it felt very well acomplished along the way. Every episode brings something new and refreshing to the series and every outcome seems to have been thought in detail.
This is a 10/10 for me. So far all i can see is a very well crafted anime. There is love and a lot of dedication on it. Definatelly a must watch.

First of all what catch my attention instantly was the art of the anime, which is a masterpiece by itself. It is a pleasure without end to see such a gorgeous animation and my eyes sure thanks a lot. Since the first episode I could see that this anime would be worth my time. The way the history is presented to us and the way it develops itself is magnificent, it helds a feeling of mystery and sadness all the time, and it doens't fail to make you wish for more. The characters are well contructed and well explored too. This masterpiece is definitly going to my favourite animes list.
