Violet Evergarden

Why exactly did KyoAni decide to slap a washed out grey filter on every single scene when it objectively makes the show look worse? What was the thought process behind this decision?

Maybe the town is just really dusty

They tried too hard to be artsy like the typical instagram user.

They try to create the atmosphere of a 'dated' film.

Pretty much they want to create a retro look.

This show looks like it was created by a pretentious art student

i hope that youre wrong, because if that was what they were going for then they should fire the clown in change of it. retro deos not mean washed out colors and space filters.

What was the thought-process of giving their best novel to the biggest hack director in the studio?

So they can sell the unsaturated version on the Blu-Ray. How fucking new are you cunts?

I won't do it because it'd just look pretentious and turn into a laughingstock. But everyone seems to be ok when Kyoani does it.
