Just a little bwaka.
Something worth noting is that in the novel, you don't find out about Violet till later on. It's a sort of reverse Haruhi situation where the anime is showing the chapters in chronological order rather than the order they were presented.

Episode 1 - Chapter 6
Episode 2 - Chapter 7
Episode 3 - Chapter 8
Episode 4 - Chapter 9
Episode 5 - Chapter 1 (Part 1 || Part 2)
Episode 6 - Chapter 2
Episode 7 - Chapter 3
Episode 8 - Chapter 4
Episode 9 - Chapter 10
Episode 10 - Chapter 5
Episode 11 - Chapter 11
Episode 12 - Chapter 12
Episode 13 - Chapter 13

You're supposed to think Violet is a robot until chapter 6.

Huh, yeah the synopsis of the novel is:

"“I’m Violet Evergarden, the Auto Memories Doll who will rush to provide service anywhere you wish.“

That translucent voice comes from a robotic beautiful girl with blonde hair and blue eyes like she came out of a storybook."

So either that gets scrapped in the anime or the novel is misleading at first.

It's the latter, though she does introduce herself as such. Really you aren't supposed to know she's not a robot till chapter 6.
