This could have been a two-parter in the series itself. Furthermore, the story also fits nicely with what we've seen in the anime. That's definitely more of a compliment towards the anime than it is a flaw on the movie's part. And it's actually quite rare that a movie version of an anime doesn't look better, but here I'd say they're about even. I found myself missing lines because I was admiring the details.

The animation is at times so beautiful that it honestly becomes a bit distracting.

The good things of the series carry to this movie as well. Its titular character is a former soldier who lost both of her hands in the war but is now nevertheless pursuing a career as an auto memory doll, a ghost writer slash typist slash secretary for hire.

Violet Evergarden: Eternity and the Auto Memory Doll is a continuation of the 2018 anime series Violet Evergarden.
