There is a very similar feel to both series, perhaps to do with the style of anime, perhaps the storyline and perhaps the setting. Both are set in a fictional world very similar to our own that has been ravaged by war. Both concern a small group of working women in their late teens and early twenties and both deal with the trauma of war. In particular, the almost autistic character of Violet reminded me strongly of Noël Kannagi (寒凪乃絵留)
who displays similar autistic traits, an inability to express emotions and has played a role in the fighting and bloodshed.

Sound of the Sky and Violet Evergarden both give off a similar feel and have a good amount in common:
-both deal with two warring societies who are engaged in a temporary peace
-the last 2/3 episodes of each series deal with the villain trying to enflame the conflict, and the protagonist trying to stop them
-the main character in both is a female soldier trying to learn something non-war related (letter writing/trumpet playing)
-both take place in a setting heavily influenced by Western European culture, but also with some Japanese influence
Overall Violet Evergarden is more emotional and serious, and Sound of the Sky is more light-hearted and
