Violet Evergarden - The Movie

From the very first episode to the last scene in the movie this anime was a huge emotional roller coaster ;_;

[erispenelopeandalittleviolet]

It was definetly intetional to make Dietfried look more like his father (mole, eye colour) and Gilbert more like his mother (eye colour).

I also have this HC that gil has softer facial Features which he got from his mom.

Which you think is almost halarious since Dietfried only really got along with his mom and hated his dad unlike Gilbert who got along with there mom but relativly got along with there father. (They also got Problems since he used to beat both brothers.)

Another thing is that Gilbert was there mothers favorite son but he wasn't there for her funural but diet was, but gil was there for there fathers funural who both had a rocky relationship with while Dietfried didn't show up.

Isn't it halarious. Like can yall see what I'm seeing?

Even thought there faces didn't look much different, both there parents where shown only when they reached there older years and we never saw them young but Dietfried and Gilbert look almost the same.

I mean look at them, there identical the only thing I noticed is the chin that is different (dietfrieds chin looks different in the black/white picture) a slight different eyebrows shape and the blue in there hair is a little different.

Spoilers for the ending of VE

And after the time skip Gilbert is tanned but I think that was the weather.

Like when he meets Violet or in Violets memory's he is paler. But honestly nothing else, if the anime would have told me or lied at first that they are twins I would have lowkey believed it cuz they look so similar, however there overall "vibe" is different.

I think yall can see what I'm seeing.

AHHHHHH THE VIOLET EVERGARDEN FINALEEEEEE

Im not going to mark spoilers just know that this is going to pretty much all be spoilers.

OH GOSH IT WAS FANTASTIC.

Of course the art and music were phenomenal as always.

BUT LIKE YURIS ON THE PHONE. Barely able to speak through the pain and the tears. Trying to explain.

OH MY GOSH AND THE LETTER TO HIS MOTHER. I thought i was prepared. I figure it would be you know I love you Im sorry I wish I could have lived longer BUT NO I GET HIT WITH YOUR PANCAKES ARE THE BEST. Such a small small thing and yet the love in that sentence. The warmth and care of a mother preparing her children breakfast. A child’s bias for what only their mother could make. My gosh I just started ugly crying.

And then when Violet gets rejected. The grace and self control as she walks away. She is so desperate to see him SHE JUMPS OFF A SHIP TO SEE HIM. But she understands that he could be hurting because of her. So she leaves.

Honestly I would have been happy if that was the ending. Yes it would have been sad but she would have known he was okay. She would have grown enough to not just go to him no matter the consequences which is something she did in season one. So it would have ended sad but with her strength. And the fact that she could live without Gil. Because that’s important it was a fine line to walk. Of bringing them back together but keeping Violet whole and human and healthy. Of not denying her journey to get where she was.

OH AND THEN WHEN GIL AND HIS BROTHER ARE TALKING. And he is reading the letter and it kinda pans out and he has his shoulders hunched together and he looks so so small. And his brother says “go” and he just stands there for a second and you know he is about to take off and then he does. And that’s absolutely flawless but then you also see the pain in his brothers eyes. The pain of seeing what his brother went through. The pain of now having to take on the weight of the family. The pain for both of them.

And then Violet just ugly crying for like two minutes straight. She can’t even talk all she can say is his name even though its clear she also wants to say I love you. Her face is twisted up she has snot dripping down her nose she starts pounding her leg. They didn’t try and make it pretty or cute. They took this woman who had been on such an incredible emotional journey. Who didn’t cry often. Who had started without understanding what I love you means. And they just let her ugly cry for 2 or more minutes.

And then the president looking at the fireworks and then looking for her and starting to say something…. And then realizing she was gone. Realizing she was with someone else. The bitter sweet sadness in those few seconds. Of realizing she had found someone and found her happiness. But he had kind of lost someone and some happiness.

And then I love that you never find out what kind of love they shared. If it ever changed to romantic. If it always was romantic. If it never was and never would be romantic. Its just pure and true love. Between two broken human beings. And thats all that matters.

I just cried on and off for two and half hours and definitely ugly cried for at least thirty minutes straight.

I've been happy for too long. Must immediately go and rewatch Violet Evergarden !!

She found him!! ❤️

I'm not crying 😭😭

I... I'm speechless. I loved this anime but I didn't know why. At first, I thought it was the art style - simple yet so so vibrant, with colors that somehow blended perfectly together yet gave contrast that captured my attention and simply mesmerized me. Then I thought it was the stories - each episode a new tale that was even more heartbreaking than the previous, all a mix of, well, life - everyday life. Then I thought, "Oh the music is so nice and the rhythm perfectly hits on each scene and moment, right when you need to feel it the most."

But after watching this movie I know it's all of the above and more. Violet... The constant search for love, for that small piece of her heart that she knows, despite everything (war, bloodshed, daily stuggles of post-war life...), it's somewhere out there, still beating. The faith that even when pushed away, it's still beating. The growth of one thought to be just a simple weapon to something extraordinary, someone that everyone turns to for help... The underlying depiction of loyalty, love, emotions, feeling... And all neatly tucked away behind the hardships of life, thousands of which we could see today, but all "solved" in such a simple manner... A letter... It got me thinking, we're so fast to dismiss everything, to let it all slide through our fingers. And it's always too late when we become aware of it.

"If I can't say it in words, maybe I can say it in a letter."

This just held so much power to me and I can't explain it (shortly) for dear life!

I don't know, this just made me a mush of everything and despite writing all of this I still don't give the anime nor the movie justice 😅 Just watch it and you'll understand.

And to the ones that created it, hats off and thank you!
