Violet Evergarden (anime): Difference between revisions
Men Are the Expendable Gender
Line 68:
* [[Long Title]]: Episodes like "You Won't Be a Tool, But a Person Worthy of That Name" and "May You Be an Exemplary Auto Memoir Doll" have long titles, although other episodes like "Never Coming Back" are of the length expected for a title. Some episodes don't have titles at all.
* [[Memento MacGuffin]]: The brooch that Major Gilbert buys Violet.
* [[Men Are the Expendable Gender]]: Every single soldier killed in combat, either by Violet or any other soldier, are men. Females in the series die of natural causes such as illness, while men are conscripted and sent to the battlefield.
** Partially [[Averted]] with {{spoiler|Major Gilbert's death, the single most meaningful death in the series. He is by no means an expendable character}}.
* [[Mooks]]: The male soldiers that Violet kills in war flashbacks, as well as the soldiers who {{spoiler|hijacked the train}} in episodes twelve and thirteen.
** [[Deconstructed]] in episode eleven, which focuses on the life of the mook Aiden after being sniped. It focuses on his interactions with his lover, and how they are left behind once Aiden is shot {{spoiler|and later dies}}.
