Vaioretto Evāgāden

Violet Evergarden is a Japanese media franchise based on the award-winning light novel series by Kana Akatsuki, illustrated by Akiko Takase. Originally published under KA Esuma Bunko (Kyoto Animation), the series won the grand prize at the 5th Kyoto Animation Award in 2014. Set in a fictional post-war world reminiscent of early 20th century Europe, the story centers on Violet Evergarden, a young woman who served as a weapon on the battlefield and must now navigate civilian life as an Auto Memory Doll — a ghostwriter who crafts heartfelt letters on behalf of others. The franchise has expanded to include manga adaptations, an anime television series produced by Kyoto Animation (2018), two films, and various supplementary works.
