-Both show themes of learning about emotions, and coming to understand feelings.
-Both can make you smile, both can make you cry
-Both have an interesting world
-Though this one applies more to Violet Evergarden in my opinion, but both have breathtaking animation
-Both have great music
-Both have an episodic storyline
I am not sure which show should I put as the recommended one, seeing that both shows are already popular in their respective seasons.
Now then, onto the most similar part of these two shows - the process of emotion learning. Both protagonists (Elias from Mahoutsukai, and Violet Evergarden the titular character) have went through a messed up past, causing them to lose the ability to act as humans, and sense emotions. Both shows set up episodic parts and through the interaction of many other characters, our protagonists gradually learn these emotions, often in some sort of heartwarming tales.
Animation wise, both are top notch, we have

Ancient Magus Bride is similar to Violet Evergarden because both have an interesting world, themes of emotions, and episodic storyline. Violet is similar to Ancient Magus Bride’s main character, Chise, because they both have that quiet on the outside but very sweet personality. Also both Violet and Chise have a sort of love and/or admiration for their mentor figure (Elias in Ancient Magus Bride, Major Gilbert in Violet Evergarden). Violet and Chise also both learn to cope with things that happened in their past in both anime.
Both series follow characters trying to understand emotions and the struggles they face.
Both series have interesting worlds with beautiful soundtracks to back them up.
Both series have a range of characters introduced to help the main character come to grip with emotions and overcome past traumas.
If you enjoyed one you'll definitely enjoy the other. Highly recommend them both.

the story is told in an similar way its slow paced.
both are telling a sad story in a soft way.
the animation is great in both
the main character are female whit an male role model.
- Both start out with a heavily traumatized teen who ends up learning a new talent with a certain encounter.
- Both have a medieval environment with beautiful landscapes and scenery.
- Both Violet Evergarden and Chise from Mahoutsukai no Yome start gaining back their emotions.
- Both do so by encountering different people with different stories, and both occasionally help out by using the new things they've learned (Chise with using her magic and Violet with ghostwriting)
Only difference is that Violet Evergarden focusses more on Violet's individual development, and Mahoutsukai no Yome has more real story to get invested in, while Violet Evergarden is

how heartwarming!!
how are these shows are filled with emotions!!
rarely I prefer slice of life anime but here look at me recommending 2 which I consider on another level.
both of them involve slight romance,slow pace, good tracks and a character with whom we learn a new dimension of emotion every single episode.
If you liked one, I'm sure you will like the other.
-Both have gorgeous artworks
-Both having a young girl as the main character
-Both have beautiful soundtracks
-Both have good story line
The difference being, Violet Evergarden is more related to real life and shorter compared to The Ancient Magus' Bride.
Both are episodic dramatic stories about a girl who has had traumatic experiences in the past and builds emotional connections and more confidence in herself as the show continues. A very emotional vibe to each episode, and a Slice of Life vibe. Both series are very pretty to look at but lack substance or good writing or pacing.

Both have beautiful art
Both have similar plot that dealt with being not accepted by society
Both have similar episodic narrative
Both deal with the lost of love one
Both have main character learning new things to adapt their surroundings
In short, Mahoutsukai is a narrative driven story with a beautiful plot i, Violet evergarden instead takes you to a feel trip that can make you cry.

Have an incredibly beautiful animation and the protagonists go through maturation during the work with the passing of the episodes
When I started watching The Ancient Magus Bride, I couldn't help but feel reminded of Violet Evergarden. Both anime have slow-paced episodic storytelling and are at its core character studies of Chise and Violet, respectively. Both of the female leads have a broken past and try to discover their true identities by building emotional connections with the people around them. The Ancient Magus Bride takes place in a fantasy world, whereas Violet Evergarden has a historical setting in western Europe. If you are looking for a touching slice of life, these anime are absolutely worth the watch.
- MC is a young woman recovering from some traumatic event
- MC relies on an older man to teach her certain things
- Theme of learning what it means to be human (e.g., feel emotions)
- Settings inspired by rural Europe
Thought where Violet is trying to learn what love is, Chise is trying to teach Elias about humanity, the way they convey these things is similar.
