All of these parts have come out between the years 2018 and 2020. Based on when the episodes came out, this is the order in which to watch the series.

Violet Evergarden (Episodes 1-4)

In the beginning of Violet Evergarden, Violet gets a job making auto memory dolls after she stops being a fighter.

She was a member of the Passionate Army and worked for Major Gilbert Bougainvillea. But when she loses him, she realizes she has nowhere else to go.

And that’s when the watchers start to get interested. She decided to become a Ghostwriter because she wanted to figure out what Major’s last words meant.

She wanted to be able to show what the words “I love you” really meant.

And that’s going to be hard for her to do, since she’s become a very hard person.

But if she has worked on more than one project, she might know how these feelings feel. Most of this half of the show is about Violet’s early days as a ghostwriter.

Violet Evergarden (Episodes 5-13)

From shows 5 to 13, Violet Evergarden is all about the projects she works on as a ghostwriter.

Even though she has no feelings, she has become a very amazing writer. She can go places and meet a lot of people because of this.

All of these people have been touched emotionally by the war and want to talk to a friend or family member about how they feel.

Because of this, Violet will meet many different people with many different things to say to many different people.

Since she will get to know these people, she will understand that she is getting closer and closer to her goal of figuring out what “I love you” really means.

This will be a very powerful thing to see.

Violet Evergarden: Kitto “Koi” Wo Shiru Hi Ga Kuru No Darou

Violet Evergarden: Kitto “Koi” wo Shiru Violet starts Hi ga Kuru no Darou by taking on a job for a songstress.

The event in this episode happens between shows 4 and 5.

This is why this episode comes between those two in the list of shows to watch.

This show tells us about the opera singer Irma Felice’s life. Irma wants someone to help her write a special letter, and that’s the idea here.

She tells Violet only small bits of information and asks her to write in the letter how she feels.

Violet tries to do this, but Irma tells her she can’t. After that, she asks her friends for help, but Irma says no to all of them.

Violet soon comes up with a way out of this problem, though.

Violet Evergarden Gaiden: Eien To Jidou Shuki Ningyou

Violet Evergarden Gaiden: Eien to Jidou Shuki Ningyou starts with Isabella, the daughter of a wealthy family named York.

Isabella is a royal grooming subject, which means that she is being trained to be the perfect heir.

But what’s important here is that she doesn’t think of this way of learning as a luxury.

Instead of seeing it as a blessing, she sees it as a curse. Because of this, her parents have asked Violet to teach her.

At first, things between the two don’t go so well. But as the story goes on, Isabella starts to see how hard Violet had to work to get to where she is now.

This is where people start to get close and the truth starts to come out.

Violet Evergarden: The Movie

Violet Evergarden: The Movie starts off with the idea that Auto Memory Dolls are becoming less popular because there are so many phones.

But that isn’t stopping Violet from becoming well-known. She is now one of the experts because her skills are so good.

Even though she has been writing letters for a long time, she hasn’t yet thought about feelings or the words “I love you.”

Also, as time goes on, she becomes closer and closer to Major Gilbert. Even after all these years of war, there’s a small chance that the guy she’s been longing for might still have a life.

This little bit of hope is what keeps this movie going. Because of this, it is one of the best parts of the whole series.
