Violet Evergarden Episode 6 Reaction
Comments (14)
Just wanted to say, since people keep saying otherwise, that Gilbert clearly meant his "I love you" in a romantic way and not in a father-daughter kind of way. I love this show, it is one of my favorites, but I don't see the point of trying to pretend that Gilbert was not a creep when saying that. I wish the show would have handled this (and episode 5 for that matter) differently, but pretending is not there is not gonna make it go away.
I wouldn't say clearly, as someone who watched the entire show no interaction between Violet and the major were "explicitly" romantic (as in you can't see it in any other way beside that). Now I don't know if the author confirmed their love to be romantic or not and I wouldn't put it past them to do it, but I don't think its wrong to choose to view their love as platonic or familial if it will help you enjoy the show more.
Leon didn't like Auto Memory Dolls cause they were travelers just like his parents. That's the biggest reason why he wanted to not like her I think.
Your pre-discussion pretty much hit the nail on the head: In the anime it's more of a father-daughter relationship due to Violet's younger age (14 - 17, she did say 14, but was just a guess), in the book, where Violet is 17-20 at the beginning of the story, the relationship seems more romantic. And Major Gilbert is 26/27 at the time the war is won. In the book the age difference is 6 to 10 years, in the anime 10 to 13 years.
SPOILER FREE: I have a general question for the Attack on Titan anime onlies: Did you understand everything in the finale? (Answers to this question may contain spoilers, so only read the comments here below this answer if you have seen the episode) I'm thinking of giving them something so they can discuss it somehow after the episode. But instead of sending them several pages of theory and explanation posts from Reddit, I'd just send them the Melius Rewrite that tries to clear up some big question marks in the characters' dialog. https://imgur.com/a/AqkaJBd I'd certainly suggest Chapter 139 to them too, because Mappa did a few things differently in the adaptation of that, and it might give them a different perspective on the subject. https://ww8.readsnk.com/chapter/shingeki-no-kyojin-colored-chapter-139/
I don’t exactly fit the criteria as I read the manga when it originally ended a couple years ago (haven’t read it since), but I did find I needed to rewind some scenes a few times. My thoughts on the ending stayed largely the same, without spoiling, I think Mappa had an opportunity to make it more cohesive and clear and they missed it, although the end product is by no means poorly done. Just my opinion
I got so happy to see Lucelia this episode, cause I love ep 3
lol the beginning. I hope Milena got better and Lola didn't get sick... I also had a persistent and annoying flu this days.
The fact that a lot of side characters in this can have their own show and it would still be good to watch is amazing
The fact that Leon’s voice actor is also our boy Thorfinn 😭😭😭 Uemura is such a talented VA and I adore whenever he comes up in projects I’m watching. While there are absolute masterpiece of episodes ahead for you to experience I have a real soft spot for episode 6. Kindred spirits who by chance meet at the right time in their lives is something I love to watch in stories and experience in real life too.
he’s what???
Two options : 1-sleep 2- the better option
I love this episode. Leon shouting violets name at the end always makes me cry
This is one of my favorite episodes
