Violet Evergarden

Discharged with prosthetic metal hands after continental war, former child soldier Violet joins the CH Postal Company in Leiden as an Auto Memory Doll ghostwriter. Through her clients' unsent feelings, she decodes Major Gilbert Bougainvillea's final words to her. Exhibits feature-film lighting, water reflections, and mechanical typewriter key-animation in every television episode. Reaches devastating heights in episode ten as Violet ghostwrites fifty years of birthday letters for an ailing mother's daughter. Integrates Evan Call's sweeping chamber-orchestra soundtrack seamlessly into silent character acting. Handles survivor's guilt with restraint as Violet confronts the lives she took during wartime.
