Not familiar with the Violet Evergarden anime? Well, the 13-episode anime aired earlier in 2018, and it was based on a light novel series of the same name. The series follows Violet Evergarden, a former soldier turned “Auto Memory Doll” — people who are tasked with transcribing a client’s thoughts and feelings into words.
The movie will take place after the events of the anime series, and will once again follow Violet on what appears to be another tear-jerking tale. The film will also be helmed by series director, Taichi Ishidate.
Violet Evergarden: The Movie will be released in Japan on January 2020. Before the film’s opening, Kyoto Animation will release a side story in theaters entitled Violet Evergarden Side-Story: Eternity and the Auto Memories Doll. The side story will be released in select Japanese theaters this September.
