Veil

[yourisekaiwitchess]

Ok first of all, the art. Masterpiece. Museum worthy (my museum that is).

Second, should've put smut tag in there because i felt feelings and the not safe for work type of feelings (a.k.a lonely). The arm and wristwatch are my weakness and thats kinda the subtle theme of this entire story

Third, if physical touch is a drawing, this entire series is it. Which also my weakness

Fourth, the conversation is the rollercoaster and oh i so enjoy the ride. Just like the author put it, everything lays in the unsaid things. My mind works overtime filling the blank.

Conclusion this manga is personally made for me to love, and i do. Bestest in the softest subtle way.

It was announced today that Udon Entertainment (with the help of Mangasplaining) licensed Veil. They’ll release it as two-in-one full color omnibuses.

Absolute masterpiece

So, what exactly is the setting? I assume this is central/western Europe, but what's the time period? 1900s? 1950s? 60s feels too late for this. Maybe even 19th century? As for the country, is it a generic unnamed place, or can it be identified? France is the obvious choice.

I really hope that this isn't stated later in the manga, I'm like 8 chapters in. But if it is, I'm sure I'm not the only one who would like to know asap.

I think it's a vague/composite/fictitious country. You catch hints of different places but they don't all fit together.

A masterpiece of art and emotion! A very slow build up of characters, background, setting, and lore. But it very much is worth it. Beautiful on so many levels

Sometime between the 1940s and early 1960s

I would say that it's Russian Empire in an alternative timeline of late 1920-s to early 1930-s.

Use of papakha is the key argument in favor of this hypothesis, also the name of the city and the names of the main characters do not contradict it either.

Upd:
Also "Сашенька" is a cutesy diminutive form of the name Alexander.
You can find this form of the name on the cover of vol.2 ch.15 under the golden papakha:
