“There was nothing else I wanted to do”: Taichi Ishidate Director Never Wanted to Make a Sequel for the Violet Evergarden Film
There are very few anime series and movies that can portray the coming-of-age genre as brilliantly as Kana Akatsuki’s Violet Evergarden. The series is one of the best representations of character growth and observance that fans feel in the development of Violet, the protagonist of the story. However, her character development takes a big turn in the sequel movie.
Violet’s entire journey is based on figuring out the three words(I Love You) that her major Gilbert Bougainvillea left her with. She explores her destiny and tries to find out what those three words mean but the movie changes everything as she finds out that Gilbert is still alive making it one of the biggest twists in Violet Evergarden’s story.
