Watching this season :
I see rankings as a starter for a conversation about comparing and contrasting Anime and Manga with other people..! I wouldn't go through someone's list and gawk at their Anime/Manga rankings for no reason... How Silly is That!

Rankings are... *sighs*, just the worst. Everyone looks at each number differently.

If you're looking to continue after the main series, here's the recommended order:
Violet Evergarden: Recollections – This is more of a recap of the main series. If you feel like you need a little refresher or quick recap before moving on, you can watch this, but it’s not essential if you already remember the story.
Violet Evergarden: OVA – This is an extra episode featuring one of Violet’s missions. The OVA is a nice watch after finishing the main series, adding a sweet and touching new story.
Violet Evergarden Gaiden: Eternity and the Auto Memory Doll – This is highly recommended and focuses on one of Violet’s missions, centered around friendship. It’s not crucial to the main plot, but it’s very emotional and definitely worth watching.
Violet Evergarden the Movie – This is the conclusion to Violet’s journey. I highly recommend saving this for last, as it beautifully ties together all of Violet’s emotional development.
So, my recommended order is: watch the OVA after the main series, then Gaiden, and finally the Movie as the perfect ending.
If you’ve finished the main series, you can actually go straight to watching Violet Evergarden the Movie (2020), as this film serves as the conclusion to Violet’s main story. It ties together all of her emotional growth and life journey in a beautiful and satisfying way.
Meanwhile, the others, like the OVA and Gaiden, are just additional stories that aren’t crucial to the main plot. They mainly serve as world-building or showcase Violet’s other missions that aren’t directly related to the major ending. So, if you want to go straight to Violet’s main story conclusion, you can watch the 2020 movie right away.
But hey, enjoy it! No need to rush. This series is quite deep, so taking your time to watch it in a comfortable moment makes the experience even better.
It’s awesome to hear that you’re finding so many other fans who love Violet as much as we do! She’s such a deep character, and it’s great that the anime community appreciates her development.
Hang in there! You’ll get through it, and I’m looking forward to hearing what you think of the rest of the series! 😁
I'm so glad to hear you're enjoying Violet Evergarden! Don't worry, the comment about Iris and her relationship with her family isn't a spoiler, it's actually an important part of Violet's character development and how she learns to understand emotions. 😊
I also agree about the amazing post-war setting, and it's interesting that you compared it to Batman: The Animated Series! The darker, more elegant art style does have some similarities, even though the stories are quite different.
I'm sure you'll keep enjoying it until the end, especially with some very emotional moments coming up. I know it can be hard to get someone to watch your recommendation, but it looks like it worked this time, right? So far, you're on episode 5 of 13, and the good news is, there are more films and seasons you can dive into later. I'm really happy you're liking it, even though it's different from the genres you usually enjoy!
Have a great day too!
Thank you so much for that. I appreciate it a lot. I'm hoping today is going well for you.
As for marathoning vs. sipping, I’d say you’ve got the right idea with pacing yourself. The slower approach helps you soak in the atmosphere and appreciate all the subtle details without getting burned out. But hey, if it gets too good, I won’t blame you for marathoning it! 😆 Just depends on your mood. Enjoy, either way!
You've got this!
I totally get what you mean about Violet reminding you of 7 of 9! That’s such an awesome comparison. Both characters have that initial sense of detachment and a fascinating journey in exploring their humanity. Violet, like 7, starts with that almost "robotic" vibe but evolves so beautifully once she begins to connect with her emotions and others around her.
I’m so glad you’re enjoying Violet Evergarden, especially after those episodes where her depth really begins to shine! It’s definitely one of those anime that’s rich in symbolism, and the emotional growth just keeps getting better. Your Trekkie heart will definitely appreciate how far Violet’s journey goes.
Thanks a lot, Pish! I had a pretty good day, and I hope yours was awesome too! I’ll definitely stay safe, and I appreciate you always having my back. You're the best, my friend and ally! (✿◡‿◡)
