User Recommendations for Violet Evergarden

In Arte, the main character is also a woman aspiring to learn a trade, painting portraits of clients. In Violet Evergarden, the main character learns the trade of writing letters for clients. As they work for their clients, they learn about them, they gain respect for them, and they gain a friend. Both are historical fiction taking place in a European setting. In either, there is a blossoming romance with someone they idolize, although in Violet Evergarden it is a side plot. Coincidentally, both shows are named after the main character.

Both have an amazing, emotional, slice of life storyline backed by phenomenal scores, and the animation for them is among the best I've ever seen. The main character is an ambitious female who wants to learn more of life through drawing and ARTE has a tough conversations and plenty of feelings . ARTE and Violet want to upgrade their skills and win the challenges they face . Both are examples of a love it or hate it anime, but if you enjoyed one, I'm almost positive you will also enjoy the other.
