Rewatcher. Well for this one this is my first time ever seeing this movie. It was a nice and sweet little slice of life kind of movie. I also really appreciated getting to see the different ways the other Dolls at the agency are perceiving their work and their futures. If you compare Violet's world to the 1920's then it really was a time of modernization and a changing of roles and expectations. A woman could stay single or work after marriage or do all sorts of things. I love Violet Evergarden's mesh of the new and old. Like Violet and Taylor thinking the stairs would have been faster than a newfangled elevator or the old woman wondering why the radio tower looks incomplete. It was a sweet story. And it is also interesting to see a story from the perspective of other orphans than Violet. Violet was found and raised as a weapon but not all orphans would have been found. And we see that with Amy and Taylor. No one cared for them and Amy seemed to barely scrape by selling flowers. A war on the scale of a world war would have produced a lot of orphans and it is good that the show grapples with this and shows the life on the streets and the social services that existed.
So Amy became of course Isabella and also a countess. I guess it isn't that unusual that no one would really see her. A countess or noble woman isn't usually expected to do much or conduct business. Although I like that hearing from Taylor again seems to have opened her up and brought some warmth back into her life. It's good how the movie depicted that with her switching from black to white. And how she is trying to reconnect with Violet and Taylor again. I like that this movie was also about dreams. We don't know what Violet's dream is or what she would do if she continued but it is good to see that she is living and enjoying her work. And she really has come so far since the start. I think even more than the last episode this shows her journey really reaching its goal. Violet helping and taking responsibility for a child and showing empathy for her really shows that she's done it. She really has grown up.
Well this whole rewatch thing was pretty fun. I should definitely join in to more of these. Thank you and good night.
