had to drop it because the visuals were giving me diabetes

it came across as a style-over-substance show to me, but i'm not opposed to giving it another try if you think it's worth it

i think it is, to me the visuals were high quality compared to normal anime which i thought to me was a good change of pace. i did enjoy violets character development through it all which was the main focus.

Never even heard of Violet Evergarden before. If it's not something I might have occasionally watched as kid (like Dragonball or Yugioh) then it's a safe bet to say I haven't seen it. What's it about?

like verb said it came out last year. its made by the anime studio that was hit by an arson attack recently and it should be on netflix cause of a partnership. the visuals to me arent nauseating, but well made and can be seen as overdone, but its preference. it wasnt as nauseating as when netflix began their own "anime" with like 12fps visuals and cgi worse than berserk.

anyways forgot to answer. its about a girl who woke up after the end of a war and she doesnt know what to do in life. she only took orders from her superior officer and shes essentially a emotionless machine who doesnt understand a lot of what she or others feel. she becomes a letter writer for a company to put "feelings onto paper" (letter writing) for others and it focuses on her developing feelings while also dealing with the people she gets commissioned from.

I forgot what step we're at, so I'm calling this step 6:

Don't give your anime a bad title. If the title has something like a . or / or ZERO or GX or @ or & or random French words or words just stitched togher or whatever, just ditch it. Same goes for titles with just too many buzzwords or words altogether. This applies to all anime things, including manga and video games or other spinoffs.

Just don't ever do this.

But it's not the title, it's English translation of the title

I'll concede that symphogear's naming of it's 2nd 3rd 4th and 5th seasons as g, gx, azx, and xv is dumb but

my dude

nobody cares about that sub titling shit after that colon.

I don't understand how that's supposed to work. Are you telling me that if an anime comes out with the title:

Gundam Wing UltimateWar Ep.XII.03: Bleed/Blast GX PrismXomega -ORDER- [Rebirth]!!!

the actual and literal Japanese title might just be "Gundam Wing Ultimate Season 3"?

Because I don't see how that could be the case. These naming conventions obviously aren't a Western thing so even if that's what they're translated to it's definitely still inspired / mandated by the Japanese creators for one reason or another. I'm also seeing plenty of really long Japanese titles on Google with pretty ridiculous literal meanings, so this seems like it's more than just some translation thing.

Mmm, yeah, doesn't make sense.
