Violet Evergarden: The Movie takes place after the 2018 series. In search of purpose, Violet works at CH Postal Company, where she writes letters for those who do not know how these writers are titled Auto Memory Dolls. Audience members who have watched the original series soon find out that Violet’s superior, Gilbert, has likely passed away during that war. Violet Evergarden takes place in the fictional country, Leiden, and follows our main character, Violet, throughout her journey where she searches for the meaning of the words, “I love you.” Violet was once considered a war-machine, and she worked as a soldier during a war that ended prior to when the original series takes place. During this review, I’d like to start with a spoiler-free portion before giving my final thoughts for those who have yet to watch the film for themselves. The 2-hour long film brings a fin to the journey of our protagonist, Violet Evergarden. Moved by the notion, Violet begins work as an Auto Memory Doll, a trade that will take her on an adventure, one that will reshape the lives of her clients and hopefully lead to self-discovery.The latest Violet Evergarden movie, released on Netflix in mid-October, concludes the series, which was originally released in 2018. There, she witnesses by pure chance the work of an "Auto Memory Doll," amanuenses that transcribe people's thoughts and feelings into words on paper. Recovering from her wounds, Violet starts a new life working at CH Postal Services after a falling out with her new intended guardian family. Hospitalized and maimed in a bloody skirmish during the War's final leg, she was left with only words from the person she held dearest, but with no understanding of their meaning. Caught up in the bloodshed was Violet Evergarden, a young girl raised for the sole purpose of decimating enemy lines.

The Great War finally came to an end after four long years of conflict fractured in two, the continent of Telesis slowly began to flourish once again.
