You may have heard of this anime already because undoubtedly while this series was shroud in mystery before it's release (this tends to happen when lesser known light novels are adapted into anime), Violet Evergaden in my option was the most anticipated anime of Winter 2017/2018. What strikes me most about this series is the animation style which I originally thought was ufotable's handiwork; but it's actually done by Kyoto Animation (aka, KyoAni). Visually breath taking with a mysterious plot that even 6 episodes in I don't know really how to tell where this anime is trying to take me, I highly recommend checking this one out!

    Synopsis:

    There are words Violet heard on the battlefield, which she cannot forget. These words were given to her by someone she holds dear, more than anyone else. She does not yet know their meaning. A certain point in time, in the continent of Telesis. The great war which divided the continent into North and South has ended after four years, and the people are welcoming a new generation. Violet Evergarden, a young girl formerly known as "the weapon," has left the battlefield to start a new life at CH Postal Service. There, she is deeply moved by the work of "Auto Memories Dolls," who carry people's thoughts and convert them into words. Violet begins her journey as an Auto Memories Doll, and comes face to face with various people's emotions and differing shapes of love. All the while searching for the meaning of those words.
