The feature film is scheduled to premiere on September 18 in theaters in Japan, after being indefinitely delayed due to the attack on the Kyoto Animation studios and the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on production.
Akatsuki began publishing the light novels with illustrations by Takase through the KA Esuma Bunko imprint in December 2015 in three volumes. Originally, the film was scheduled to be released in the month of January, however, due to the events that occurred in the second building of Kyoto Animation during the attack in which there were human losses, the premiere had to be delayed.
The anime adaptation premiered on January 10, 2018, having a total of thirteen episodes and a special video. Netflix simulcast the series with the episodes dubbed and subtitled in multiple countries. A film with a side story titled Violet Evergarden Gaiden: Eien to Jidou Shuki Ningyou opened in Japan in September 2019.
