'Violet Evergarden' Episode 3 Spoilers: Can Titular Character Survive a Strict Doll Training Course?
What does it mean for someone to say "I love you" to someone else? A former soldier of war who has never known what real emotions mean hopes to find the answer as an in-training Auto Memoir Doll on the Japanese anime series, "Violet Evergarden."
The previous episode saw Violet, who has since been hired as an Auto Memoir Doll at Colonel Hodgins CH postal company, take a more active approach to her search for answers by offering to write a romantic letter with rather unfavorable results for both the client and the recipient. This helped her realize what she lacked in skills and showed an interest in getting better at her job by agreeing on a Doll training course.
This incident may have also helped Violet make her first real friend in Erica, the Auto Memoir Doll who initially confronted her about her motivations for working at the ghostwriting department of the CH postal company, but later came to Violet's defense after realizing her own insecurities about being an efficient Auto Memoir Doll.
