Prior presentations of this story have been significantly better. that element of the series just doesn't quite succeed. Despite their unconvincing attempt at such. This series is about her development as a person. It will be a wonderful excursion further into this very unique world, but then One more impression: I personally felt this movie could have used another 30 to 60 minutes to add some more plot elements and better examine the Violet character herself (she is after all, supposed to be the theme of the show). So if you haven't seen this yet, you can go go into it eyes wide open. It leaves the impression that the production company hit a time or budget constraint and said, "Okay, that's a wrap!". It makes one wonder if this is intended as the first of a 2-part series. This movie will tug at the heart strings. Who would believe that anyone could pull this much meaning and emotion from the simple plot of a letter writer and mail carrier. Up until that point this does not disappoint. The entire presentation is excellent up until the last 5 seconds, then leaves the audience in a "What? That's it?" state of mind. However this "movie" seems more like an extended episode and (no spoilers) has a rather abrupt and unexpected finale. I am a big fan of the Violet Evergarden series. I think it actually might be a bit hard to follow. If you liked the anime series, then this is definitely worth a watch. Still, that's pretty much the only disappointing thing about this film. You'd have hoped that if they were going to make a movie, they would have chosen a storyline that would have better served its length.
That being said, it can feel a bit padded. It's sweet, heartfelt, at times really sad and filled with melancholy, but in the end optimistic and looking hopefully towards the future. This could have been a two-parter in the series itself. Furthermore, the story also fits nicely with what we've seen in the anime.
That's definitely more of a compliment towards the anime than it is a flaw on the movie's part. And it's actually quite rare that a movie version of an anime doesn't look better, but here I'd say they're about even. I found myself missing lines because I was admiring the details. The animation is at times so beautiful that it honestly becomes a bit distracting. The good things of the series carry to this movie as well. Its titular character is a former soldier who lost both of her hands in the war but is now nevertheless pursuing a career as an auto memory doll, a ghost writer slash typist slash secretary for hire.
Violet Evergarden: Eternity and the Auto Memory Doll is a continuation of the 2018 anime series Violet Evergarden.
