I don’t mind Yuri but I wish they had a bit more chapters to get closer before that kiss was executed as it was too abrupt considering what they were talking abt

Russian nobility was actually remarkably francophile/phone, as a sort of self conscious thing after around Peter I's time/ you can read (or watch an adaptation) of tolstoy's war and peace to see a point in time where this becomes kinda problematic (the Napoleonic wars). But many aristocrats would almost exclusively speak french and do things like seek out french speaking tutors and domestic staff. similar problems during the first world war, since much of the higher nobility also had mixed foreign backgrounds (irish, baltic german, etc.) - but of course France was allied with Russia at the time. So a french name is really not implausible for the child of a Russian noble c. 1900-1920.

Yuri? Hell yeah! Doomed yuri? Sadly, most likely.

Man, I'm really invested now, I can't wait to see what happens next.

It's not really specific to the Russian nobility, the French culture was as predominant in Europe for a long time as the Anglo culture has become nowadays, and French was the lingua franca of the European aristocracy and beyond.

As expected of nobles, knowing the finest tastes.
I predict their will fight in Stalingrade with all the nightmare that bring in, also, first time see mention Ukraine in manga
