Kyoto Animation announced on Monday that the Violet Evergarden: The Movie anime film has earned 1.5 billion yen (about US$14.3 million) and has sold approximately 1.11 million tickets as of Sunday, 38 days after the film opened in Japan.
The franchise’s separate side-story anime, titled Violet Evergarden I: Eternity and the Auto Memory Doll (Violet Evergarden Gaiden: Eien to Jidō Shuki Ningyō), opened in theaters in Japan in September 2019, and it screened for at least five weeks.
Kyoto Animation’s television anime adaptation of author Kana Akatsuki and illustrator Akiko Takase’s Violet Evergarden novels premiered on television in Japan and on Netflix in some territories in January 2018.
