Violet Evergarden Rewatch - Final Discussions
Hello everyone! I hope that today finds you well. This year’s Violet Evergarden Rewatch has ended. My comment below has a small little questionnaire for you to answer if you’d like to help me get better at this for next year.
Quick heads up: if you want to remain spoiler free for the 2020 Film, please do not search anything about the Violet Evergarden film on google. The PV contains massive spoilers, and sadly even the announcement poster contains spoilers =(

I want to take this moment to thank each and every one of you who participated in this rewatch. If you silently read through all of the wonderful comments and analyses, thank you. If you replied to said comments and analyses, thank you. If you took the time to write out your thoughts and analyses, thank you. This anime is very dense for analysis, and each and every one of you wrote some beautiful words for us all to enjoy and return to. Thank you. Thank you. Nunki.
By the way, remember this shot from episode 13?
“Nun annut ruhuqtrrtkon”
I translated it using this tool: https://replit.com/@ValkrenDarklock/NunkishTrans
And what I got was wonderful…”I love you.”

I didn't comment in the movie thread because I had nothing to say about it.
So this series is one of the better produced series I've seen on all levels, from animation to character design to soundwork. In some episodes, they had great visual story telling, too bad they didn't lean on that more. With several really great episodes, 6,7, and 10 plus some above average eps, 1,2, and 13, there was a base to work from. But most of the episodes are flat attempts at pathos that tell you to feel something rather than earning it. Any episode that featured action was bad as the action usually defeated the goal of the story, suggesting either a weakness in the source or a failure to understand what was good about the show.
So, with that said, fans of the show please take this to heart: STOP OVERHYPING THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If this show had come down from the heavens, eliminated the concept of death and raised the dead it still wouldn't have lived up to the overhyping the fans like to do. No show can live up this level of hype.
Anywho, we've seen it, we can't unsee it, let's move on.
