Kyoto Animation's promotion video for Uji City

Kyoto Animation, which produced the Violet Evergarden series, is based in Uji City. Recently, it has been working with the city in a series of collaboration to promote the city, especially since the city is being featured in 2024's NHK taiga drama series Dear Radiance (光る君へ). This short video (6 minutes 30 seconds) is part of this collaboration.

It is nice to see the studio getting back to making great anime after the tragic event in 2019, followed by having to relive the tragedy again during the trial of the arsonist. A monument has been erected in memory of the victims for people to visit while they are in Uji City.
