After ep.10 I complained about this title to my friend and he told me that Violet Evergarden was written by an 18yo girl. Idk if that's true but it certainly is evident that neither writing experience nor talent went into making this. The protag girl for some reason was intentionally made to be as dull as possible and in absence of any interesting ing characters this makes the story utterly unenjoyable. What we have then is yet another KyoAni eye candy without substance (alright +1 star for visuals).

So for the recommendation part: I would argue that if you're a 10+ year old male ... and you have a higher emotional intelligence than that of a hamster, there is not going to be a single second in this that will impress you.

Cheers!

Seeing how many 10/10 this one is getting I felt a need to barge in.

When I was first watching SEL, I thought something like “Damn, this one’s sure weird. It will probably be either really good or totally awful.” Well, when I was watching Texhnolyze, I thought the same thing, and I was right both times! The only difference is that SEL ended up being a 10/10 and Texhnolyze – a 1/10.

So as a word of warning to any Lainbros out there since this is getting recommended – DO NOT watch. I was also deluded by the shills, otherwise, I wouldn’t have watched Texhnolyze ... again after dropping it 4 years ago. It has literally zero good things about it. It looks really bad. The soundtrack starts playing once in a blue moon. The story is rather predictable. You would think that because the dialogue is scarce it would be more meaningful. Nope. The characters are boring, and Ichise is definitely the most awfully written character I ever had to look at.

I think that dark, psychological, and violent themes can be a recipe for true masterpieces when done right. This is not the case here.
I hope this review helps someone to avoid this anime.
