Anime recommendation: Violet Evergarden

This is a very good anime from Netflix. It has a good story, very nice animation and a great cast.
The protaganist is voiced (in Japanese) by Yui Ishikawa, also known as Mikasa Ackerman from the well known anime Attack on Titan.

Warning: minors spoilers ahead:
This anime revolves around Violet Evergarden trying to adjust to a normal life after being a "tool for the military" her entire life. She knows nothing but to take orders, and only from her Major; Gilbert Bougainvillea.
During the war Gilbert goes missing in action, and his last words to Violet was "I love you".
Violet does not understand the emotion behind this sentiment and gets a job as an "Auto Memory Doll" writing letters for others, trying to understand what her Major meant when he said those final words.

I had a great time watching this one, it was both sad and heartwarming, often simultaneously. It's short, 13 episodes, so if you are looking for a short series I would recommend checking this one out.

If you have any recommendations for me post them in the comments!
Otherwise have a great day!
