VIOLET EVERGARDEN THE MOVIE Hitting Select Theaters This Month
Funimation recently announced that they’ll be releasing Violet Evergarden the Movie this month. This is the second feature-length film in the franchise that serves as the finale to the anime series from Kyoto Animation. Fans will be able to watch Violet Evergarden the Movie in Japanese with English subtitles on March 30 at select theaters in the U.S. and Canada with pre-sale tickets becoming available on March 19.
The movie concludes Violet’s story as a young woman and former child soldier reintegrating into society after the war who searches for her life’s purpose. Employed as an Auto Memory Doll hired to write other people’s thoughts into letters, Violet seeks to understand the meaning of the words "I love you," said to her by Major Bougainvillea, the person she held dearest and lost during the War's final days. Violet Evergarden the Movie is the final chapter in Violet’s story as she discovers that while writing the emotions of others, she may have neglected her own. When a terminally ill boy requests her services for his family, her own feelings about love and loss resurface. Now she must confront her past and the death of the Major.
