S4E29 - VIOLET EVERGARDEN GAIDEN: ETERNITY AND THE AUTO-MEMORY DOLL Review (2019 Film)

The 7th and final part of our epic Kyoto Vacation continues with the first Violet Evergarden film, Eternity and the Auto-Memory Doll! It is a ‘Gaiden’ side-story that plays like a longer, lusher episode of the TV series, where Violet comes into a client’s life and not only helps them write the perfect letter, but in so doing helps them make a major personal breakthrough. And this time, she does it twice, as the film takes the surprising step of resetting halfway through with a major time jump, and the flipside of the story we see in the first half. It’s a remarkable film, boldly and beautifully directed by Haruka Fujita in her feature directorial debut, and the first KyoAni production animated in 2.35:1 widescreen, making for one of the most overwhelmingly gorgeous things we’ve reviewed so far.

Enjoy, and come back next week for our review of the final piece of the Violet Evergarden saga, the aptly but confusingly named second film Violet Evergarden: The Movie!
