To me it tied up all of the loose ends and allowed a truly emotional experience by a woman who had had at one point no idea what emotions were to feel everything. It did several time jumps but it showed how things ended for Violet which if you have seen the series will show how much she changed and allow you to find out how her life ended up. It brought back in a lot of history about Violet Evergarden but incorporated a new story based off a previous one, a new unique story that will definitely tug at your heartstrings and answers to the one thing the series never did that will also make you emotional. And here I was in the middle crying between them. And my son kept saying the movie got to me and went on to admit how he couldn't resist crying throughout even though he had never watched the series and my adult male friend said the same even though he had. I went to see this with my adult son, his girlfriend and my good adult male friend. But it takes you on an emotional experience unlike any other I have seen to date. This movie is for both people who have seen the series and those who haven't as well. Overall, the series as a whole is unique, creative, and emotionally fulfilling. The last quarter of the movie might be considered a bit much by some viewers, or a perfect ending by others. But with the background of the prior stories, this really hits home. Without those, this would likely strike me as a more bland film. I'm rating this 9 stars when considered along with the prior episodes and film. The total contrast in goofball supporting characters makes Violet's unique and paradoxical personality stand out even more. But the character of Violet is about as complex as I've seen in any anime. and to be honest I'm not really sure why. This has consistently been one of my favorite stories. The back-story of the prior episodes are essential to understanding the real point and nature of this film. The movie stands on its own, but just barely. Before watching this movie I recommend watching the Evergarden series and the prior movie otherwise a large part of this won't have the emotion impact it requires. Yet it holds true to the story and has a very nice ending (be sure to watch to the end of the credits).
This movie is even moreso, with parts of it admittedly a bit too over the top in the emotional aspect. Violet Evergarden is in my mind some of the best anime ever made.
