5th anniversary of Violet Evergarden anime series

Today marks the 5th anniversary since Violet Evergarden anime series aired in Japan.

(A bit about dates... the series started showing on 10 January 2018 at 24:00, or 0:00 of 11 January 2018. This means the actual anniversary is 11 January, but in Japan, shows that start at midnight or later are counted based on the previous date, using times like 24:00 for midnight and 25:00 for 1:00 the next day. So depending on who you ask, it can either be 10 January, or 11 January.)

I recently caught Violet Evergarden The Movie in a cinema again because there was a special screening. Hopefully, the entire series comes back for a rebroadcast on TV, instead of just the special cut that was shown on Nippon TV in October 2021.

Oh, KyoAni has been conducting 10th anniversary events and such for its past series like Hyouka, so we can probably expect something for Violet Evergarden series in 2028. Five more years to wait!
