thank you, Kyoto Animation.
Amen 🙏🏻 Sage’s Rain
Yeah...that thing. If someone ruined my art...fine...but if they burned a massive project of mine...there would be hell to pay. Some body part, maybe their eyes, would be payment enough.
Aside from all that is evil...
Look at this gem they were able to create before that terrible day. Look at the beauty that has lasted beyond all days. That's what I'm after.
Ummm please make diabolik lovers yui problem or maybe the vampire brother.
Can you please collaborate with made2expresss
I would love to see a collab between you and the analysis
Violet having mechanical hands is such a good metaphor, she's the symbol of love and is loved by Gilbert but can't express those human emotions but she's so beautiful even with metal arms
i dont see it as a metaphor to be honset lol
To me the mechanical arms are a juxtaposed symbol of Violet's transition from a hollow warrior who kills to a person who understands love and aims to help others. As a soldier Violet was a weaponized killer, using her hands to execute the orders of others and caused a lot of death. With her mechanical arms, although now seen as more of a tool, she now uses them to write letters and help others express their true emotions. It's a weird contrarian thing, which I find interesting.
fuck, just remembering the mother and daughter made me wanna cry again...
Same. Had to go to the comments to see if anyone felt the same lol
Sameee, that episode hit me with an emotional truck😭😭
U should watch the movie it’s even better I mean they were all good 10/10
Same 😭
After watching it, my eyes was gushing I'm tears. I've never been so sad over an anime in my life
I often think about how Violet was like a mechanical machine with her human hands and now that her arms and hands are mechanical she learns to be human. It's beautiful
Beautiful line❤
Violet evergarden is my favorite anime and had me crying
Imagine crying 9 times in less than 9 episodes. It's a record I don't think will be broken
imagine saying "oh shit i relate in burning" some time after you finish watching. It hit way too close way too hard.
same here man its so perfect i need MORE
Violet Evergarden and Assasination Classroom will always hold a hold a place in my heart
Me too, I cried in almost every episode. This series is truly moving and beautiful. It taught me so much, in it I felt great love, quiet joy and light in dark times, but also hope.
I enjoy an am enveloped by the emotionally deep and exceptionally beautiful story of Violet Evergarden..
This anime is a Masterpiece. The tears shed watching will heal or help heal parts within us that we sometimes refuse to see or can't see. If you need an anime to cry, heal, for comfort...this is the one.
This is the first show ever that had made me cry, I have never wanted an anime character to be happy as much as Violet
Good bye is so bitter
While " l love you " carries a faraway scent....
Episode 10 man, that HURT DIFFERENTLY
This. Literally THIS. I never cried so hard at an anime.
Yep 10 and 11 made me cry like a waterfall.
I CRIED SO MUCH
This anime destroyed me more than most other shows have lol.
10/10, absolutely recommend!
What a birthday present Sage's Rain uploading a video on one of my favorite anime
Happy birthday bro
@@smelliecheez886 Thanks
Aye Happy birthday!!
Happy birthday, and have a lovely ❤️
happy birthday!
I love how you talked about the soundtrack.
Evan Call really did an outstanding job composing every piece of music in the show. I know that there are lots of emotional music out there in the world, but this is different. Violet Evergarden's beautiful music is emotional because it's full of emotion, just like the story. In every piece, you can discover different emotions from joy and happiness all the way to the harsest sorrow and pain. In 'Back in Business' you can feel joy, fun and excitement, the masterpiece that is 'Across the Violet Sky' starts slow, but hits you with happiness and sadness at the same time when the louder melody jumps in like an old coal-powered train chugging at a station! ' What it means to love' shows how beautiful and breathtaking love can make you feel, and 'A Doll's Beginning' builds up mistery, then releases in excitement just like how Violet and the person watching the show feels at the beginning of the story and throughout until the end.
Violet Evergarden's soundtrack is not emotional in the expected way. It is full of emotion.
(And I didn't mention many tracks, like 'Always Watching Over You' and 'Letters from Heaven', the Special Episode's 'Letters' and the amazing movie's epic soundtrack, like 'Tears in The Rain' or 'Echo Through Eternity'!!! I can't wait to see the movie by the way, I already know it will make me cry hard!)
I'm two years removed from your thoughtful addition to the video but you really put it beautifully. The music and the story are beautiful but the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Nothing less than what Evan Call put out would do justice to the brilliant storytelling and vice versa.
My favorite color is violet, a color of love, spirituality and divinity. It has been since I can remember. I love all the references you used, Sage. It's also interesting that violet or purple is the last color of the rainbow, Iris. Red is the color of roses, but also blood, rage, anger, but purple is more mystic, eternal. I also love your word choices in this, and how open you are with how you feel. It's hard to find people like that in this world anymore. Thank you! =)
This is easily one of my favorite anime dramas up there with your lie in April
I have been purposely holding your lie in April off so I can emotionally recover from violet evergarden
The only Anime that I heard saying "I love you." T_T thank you Kyoto Animation, and just today I learned about the tragic event at the Studio
it’s easier to die for someone than to live for them
As someone who lost a friend due to... "closing his own book", I can vouch for that.
The kicker?
Violet Evergarden was the last anime he recommended, and he closed his book at around the time episode 8-9 aired.
He unintentionally wanted to drive the point home.
Can we talk about that special when violet wrote a song. I was balling my eyes out
This anime made me cry when it came to that sad part
Which one? There were so many
@@Saber23 not op but for me, it was the girl recieving the letters from her mother one by one, and it cutting to the girl growing up with them that hit me the most in the feels, that scene was just amazing
In short, I love Violet Evergarden, both the series and the character, from start to finish.
Violet’s character is not only beautiful but is a symbol of change and improving oneself and striving to grow.
Violet grew from a heartless child soldier to one who is striving to live life just like others, find happiness and grow to love not only what she does as an auto memory’s doll but who she are as a person Violet is no longer like a robot but a human with a heart and soul.
In the 2020 Violet Evergarden Movie, she finds out Gilbert was actually alive and not dead. He was scared to go back cuz he didn't wanna see her go back to how she used to be. He wanted her to learn to live for herself. And when she finally goes to him, she's able to tell him she understands emotions and love. We've seen her journey and her character growth is incredible and so sad.
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO FOR SO LONG
I actually found you not to long ago through Spotify and I'd listen to them all and I fell in love with the depth that you open the listeners eyes to especially for shows and media that we were mostly introduced as kids and now as adults we can truly see what the writers were trying to teach us then. I definitely appreciate your videos and life lessons!
thank you!
This anime left me broken!
This show made me cry simply on visuals alone. Then again by the story. I love it
@Sage's Rain
1: You made me love this anime 10X more because you put all my feelings about it into words.
2: Just gave me my daily dose of faith in myself and in love.
Arigatou gozaimasu
I love this anime! One of the parts that hit me hard (and there were plenty) that I don't hear mentioned a lot is in ep 10 when Violet is comforting Ann. She simply embraces the crying girl and says, "There is nothing that can be done." After that the ep only got more tragic! 😭😭😭
SAGES RAIN DOING A VIDEO OF MY FAVORITE ANIME LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
This channel brings me such peace… I can’t even describe how much I appreciate the thoughtfulness of you. Thank you.
Violet Evergarden is one of if not the most humanizing pieces of fiction I ever came across, and it's arguably an impecable piece of art and literature.
This is by far the best thematic analysis on what is one of my favorite shows of all time, and I am very thankful for you making this video, with that I'll leave with an infamous quote and also the utmost gratitude for the staff at Kyoto Animation for bringing Violet Evergarden to life.
"Words are powerful"
I love that people are still talking about Violet Evergarden over 3 years after it was released
This channel is my safe space. Thank you Sage
It’s been ages since I’ve cried, I haven’t been able to physically cry for years now. This emotional block for sadness and indirectly crying has also caused me to struggle with love. Never have I been able to truely graps and understand just what love is, even though I’ve felt it before. But this video, it’s helped me understand a bit better and nearly managed to make me cry three times in it’s duration.
From the bottom kf my heart, thank you Sage for making this beautiful video
Violet Evergarden is one of my favorite animes of all time like I’ve watched 5 times I think and I’ve cried every time
Kyoto Animation did such amazing work and so did everyone else involved
Oh god, just seeing these clips are bringing the tears back!
The mother and daughter and the play writer’s stories broke me the most. Thank you, Violet Evergarden, for being my inspiration and the reason I understand loss.
Violet Evergarden is a masterpiece.
violet is the bio-product of their love.
have never thought of this but damn, the thought itself is beautiful :(
Prepared to cry before the video even starts 😅
I saw your Garden of Words video right after I watched the blu ray for G.o.Words. I haven't felt emotionally connected to something like that movie in a while. It is beyond beautiful for me.
I have Violet Evergarden in blu ray too, I haven't seen it yet but I will do and when I'm done I'll come back here to watch this.
There is an extreme sense of tranquility in these videos and in Garden of Words, I wouldn't mind coming back to soothe my soul again. Thank you for the peaceful videos.
no matter how many times i watch this anime i'll always feel something from it.
I’m so glad I had the opportunity to watch the movie in theaters, what an emotional roller coaster start to finish. Thank you Kyoto Animation.
Violet's story literally changed my life for the better. It's a very long story but my mother died when I was 18. As much as I wanted to, I could never cry about it. I tried but no matter how much I thought about her, nothing would happen. I remember hearing about it. My dad let out a scream I had never even heard anyone make in my life. My sister kept hugging me, telling me everything is okay. I wanted this to be as important to me as everyone else, I wanted to show that it was important to me, but it's like I didn't know how?
A lot of stuff in the anime made me really sad and made me cry, but episode 10 hit me like a freight train. My mom died in 2011. I never grieved for her. There I was, 8 years after my mother's death, crying my eyes out for the first time in my life for her. It felt so good. I kept wondering what kind of things she might say to me if she could send me letters. What would she think of me? What advice would she give me? She'd probably say all the same things Anne's mom had to say. I watch episode 10 every mother's day now.
"No letter that could be sent deserves to go undelivered." Of all the things in Violet's story, this is the one thing that stuck with me the most. She's right about this, you know? Those unsent letters we all have? That's love! I had so many undelivered letters. All these seemingly insignificant positive thoughts and feelings for people around me, past or present, tragically unsent. If I had these kinds of unsent letters, surely people around me have their own. Are any addressed to me? I'm sure there are some.
After experiencing her story, I started telling people when they've done something I appreciate, no matter how seemingly insignificant. They aren't gonna be there forever, you know? Whether drifting apart, moving away, or something worse. Did my friend call me to say hi on her way home from work? Did that make me feel happy? I'm going to tell my friend how much I love that she calls me like this. You know what I learned? Sending your own letters is how you get letters in return. How cool is that?
Violet allowed me to grieve and cry for my mother. Violet taught me that it's important to tell people what you feel. Violet taught me that it's okay to wear your heart on your sleeve, and that it's the only way you're gonna find people who want your letters. Violet also taught me that someone, somewhere is thinking about me right now. They maybe just haven't said anything yet, or perhaps they just can't because they don't even know me. Wouldn't it be nice if they did? It genuinely scares me to wonder what kind of person I'd be had I not experienced her story. If I met the friends I love so much now for the very first time tomorrow, would I feel capable of accepting their love? Would I even feel capable of hugging them? Making gifts for them? Writing them letters, metaphorically or literally, telling them all the little ways they brighten my life? I don't believe I would.
I never would've expected an anime about an orphan, child-solider, paraplegic girl with prosthetic arms and a severe lack of emotional intelligence, writing letters on behalf of the illiterate would make me a better person, but here we are. The story of Violet Evergarden is beautiful and it will forever and always be the most significant piece of fiction I've ever experienced in my entire life. In a lot of ways I feel I experienced much of the same character growth she did. Very poetic that the girl struggling to comprehend "I love you" is the one who taught me what it means.
This show is way to calming same goes with this channel I love it
I don’t cry often from tv shows and movies but episode 10 makes me bawl my eyes out
This anime series was, not only tear jerking, but also life changing for me. Violet Evergarden change my perspective on the world around me. It and this analysis video made me want to truly live my fragile life to its absolute fullest! Thank you Sage's Rain for this powerful video. Thank you Kyoto Animation for this beautiful anime series!
"Someday you’ll understand what I said, and then you’ll realize for the first time, you have many *burns*." -Claudia Hodgins
This person likes atla and violet evergarden, truly amazing taste
a masterpiece beyond words; an experience unlike another with the anime, alongside with your presentation
That is and that will remain the best moral anime. I learnt so much from this anime. Its first 3 episodes seemed to be bore but I knew that it would teach me so much. I lost my Grandfather, my cousin, my Grandmother in just 4 years and I really become emotional whenever I watch this anime. I would say that only those people who place themselves in place of Violet while watching this anime can understand this anime. I didn't just watch this anime, I tried my best to feel just like Violet was feeling at every painful moment of life. I really love this anime. It has beautiful soundtracks. It gave me courage and hope that I should remain steadfast and become a doctor just as my Grandmother wanted.
Violet Evergarden is a masterpiece. #1 Anime to me
I never had such a range of emotions while watching a show, and I felt true humanity in Violet
your writing ability is phenomenal man, mad respect
This made me cry… it’s beautiful, thank you! I’ll have to watch this series again ahh…
You had to have known this wouldn’t get many views because VE is a criminally underrated show, but you did it anyway. For that, you have my respect. Subbed
The fact that this was upload when I started watching Violet Evergarden is amazing.
This video made me want to go back and rewatch Violet Evergarden because even this video had made me cry.
Loved this anime, I want to rewatch it so many things hit my heart. Beautifully made, though it’s not for everybody I really recommend it to any who haven’t watched it.
Whenever I'm traveling any airline, I listen to the OST. It's hard to sleep in the plane, but hear the soundtrack calms my nerves. Also, their anniversary is near in few days
I’m really happy you made a video abt violet .
Just listening to you talk about this beautiful anime brought me back to tears. I really hope Kyoto Animation can recover sometime soon because I would love nothing more than to get a continuation of this wonderful heartfelt story.
This is by far one of the best video essays on Violet Evergarden
Sage's rain I absolutely love your videos and how you break down anime in ways I've felt but can't put to words; but for me Violet Evergarden is one that I can put into my own words but also an anime that saved my life. I absolutely love your video on Violet Evergarden but for me Violet Evergarden means so much more than what you bring up.
To start off I'll openly admit that I cried three times watching this. The first time was episode 10 pretty self explanatory, the phone scene in the last movie and episode 11.
So I've served the last six years of my life in the US military and an infantryman. We were thought death is apart of our job and if it happens then it happens, basically we became numb to the idea of dying as it was apart of our job. I watched Violet Evergarden after my first deployment and I connected with it from episode one; where I connected with Violet not understanding civilian life and feeling disconnected. I joined the Army right after highschool so it was my entire experience as an adult and the military is a whole different culture from civilian life. But for me episode 12 is what changed my life; episode 3 I can connect with having regrets and re adapting to civilian life after getting out. But 12, 12 was special; before my first deployment I wrote letters to all my friends and family that mattered to me so that in the case that I didn't become back I could say my final words to them. I clearly remember when I was writing these letter not feeling a thing just "if I don't come back it's whatever" as that's the job how were thought to think. But for me after watch Violet deliver those letter of the soldiers final words to the family and seeing their reaction; it hit home. I saw that part and it finally become real that I wrote death letters and if I died that the reaction I saw in that episode would have been the reaction of the people I wrote too and I straight up bawled. Only then did it become real for me. As weird as it may sound to the average person I felt feelings again. For me Violet Evergarden is my favorite anime because it spoke to me, I saw myself in Violet and it made me human is the best way I can explain it. Even though it may not have been the way the anime intended it to be interpreted but letters truly changed my life both in the real world but also from this anime. But to summarize thank you for this video and all the videos you make as they help make me appreciate the anime/medium more than I would normally.
My favorite anime!!
I found your channel yesterday when I was having troubles with sleeping and you really helped me, so thank you!
I only watched a bit of the last movie so I don’t know the gist of the story, but seeing the 60+ year timeskip into the future where a kid talks about violet’s history at a postal office(if I remember correctly?) was a great way to end the story, she wasn’t seen as a tool of war anymore, but as someone who did a great service to people, despite every bad thing she did people remembered her fondly for every good thing she did,
It’s like the author’s saying “as long as you are alive you can still build the legacy you’ll leave behind” I didn’t see most of the movie beside the end but it was a nice message.
This series broke me in the best way. I am so glad to examined it.
Episode 10 .
One of the best episodes in history of anime
I forgot a lot of events from my first watch of the anime and now I'm glad you helped me remember what made it so beautiful.
“Live, damn you! That’s an order.”
I am crying thank you
Kyoto animations rising up from the ashes of that horrific arson attack is more proof that love, determination and the will to live can overcome hate and madness. Keep your heads up, we're gonna make it.
Violet Evergarden hit so crazily different. One of the best stories I've ever seen. The ending movie was absolutely wonderful
Violet evergarden forever my #1
I finished watching Violet Evergarden last week and stumbled upon your video now by accident (partly because I probably saw a notification of this video months ago but didn't know this Animé at that time so I decided to pass.) I strongly and wholeheartedly agree that Violet Evergarden is so beautiful in so many aspects - its characters, story, art/aesthetics, and Violet herself. Her eyes are like sapphire or something, they're so mesmerizing O_O And the way you portray the story and emotions of Violet Evergarden was beautiful as well.
I like this video a lot (and many of your other videos.) I know Violet Evergarden is loved by so many people across the globe as well, but watching this video of yours makes me happy because it validates (not sure if this is the right word) my awe and wonder of this piece of work, and lets me know that someone else shares my fascination. Thank you so much for making this video about Violet Evergarden.
I sat down binged this series over about three day period and it was a complete shock to me with how good this anime is. The premise had me interested and the animation looked very sharp (with Kyoto Animation that's to be expected for me) but the ride kept getting better and better as the story and Violet's character grew. Truly worth your time if you want to watch something that'll pull at your heartstrings.
beautiful video
Thank you Sage Rain for making me smile through tears
I was ugly crying every episode, I know you guys did too. Don’t lie. This is honestly one of the most amazing animes out there.
As a guy, who's grown up pretty up by myself. I don't know if I know what love is, in any form. And now that I am the cusp of being an adult (I am 18), the thought of having that intimacy, it, honestly scares me. But, I find I want it, and badly at that. I don't know what the point of me writing this is. I suppose I'm just throwing my thoughts into the well like coins, because I know the well will accept them. Thanks for reading this, and thanks to Sage's Rain for what is my favorite channel on UA-cam. Have a lovely day all.
Watch Violate Evergarden, A silent voice, Your lie in April. A silent voice is a movie and others are series
no anime makes me cry as much as violet evergarden
This anime is one of the best I have seen . From the beginning till the end . Deamm the story was so good and man I cried so much , I legit felt empty after the first s1 ended , but after movie I was happy that I saw the story fully.
Violet, maybe love is all the friends you made along the way
the greatest reteller of any story…. I present you Sage Rain
I love the rain sounds you put in these videos they’re the perfect backdrop
I cried all three times I watched this show
Not ashamed to say this anime made me weep at multiple points.
Fuck I shouldn’t have watched this at work, I’ll start crying aaaaaaa
Thank you so much for this video. I love Violet Evergarden so much and you perfectly put into words what this show was trying to show. Man this made me cry
Man I can't say this enough, your videos are just so brilliant! Thank You for all the hard work and diligence you put in these videos. Hope you keep making these for as long as you can. That voiceover, and your script both are the work of a genius. THANKS once again!❤
SPOILERS:
ep 10, where the sick mom has letters to be written and delivered to her daughter for her next 50 birthdays; HOLY HELL!
I cry at like nothing at all, but I genuinely teared up and ALMOST did cry.
Thank you, there is so much in this anime not only the feelings of the characters but u can feel the passion and love the whole crew gave it.
Everyone here also has to thank Kana Akatsuki for writing this masterpiece
kyoto animation makes such beautiful animes, violet evergarden is truly a one of a kind.
I feel like we won't really know love without loss, grief and sorrow. We won't be happy without feeling sadness first.
The one thing that made me cry always in Violet Evergarden is not Violet's own journey, but rather the ones she met on the roaf. It will always be a dying mother's love, a soldier's last letter, a friend's final message; it will always be the moments that reminds us of change and the eventuality that people you know will one day no longer be there to greet you a good morning on your way to work, to tell you good night as you slumber away. My own grandmother past away during the pandemic, it was sad? Melancholic? I don't exactly have the words to describe the lost, I was never really close to her but she was a kind soul that will always offer us their hospitality with a smile, her death changes everything in their home, it feels so wrong to not hear her voice. I didn't cried when we learned she died, I just go on by my day knowing that a person dear to my mother and her family is no longer with us, well I guess what I'm saying is:
Appreciate the Good
Acknowledge the Bad
We only have so much time to do both.
I started watching this movie but never saw it through. After this video, I'm ready to give it another shot
my fav anime ever. Its so beautiful
"tears that felt like a victory" I just -- how are you so accurate about literally everything
Oh boy, this will be good.
