[Baka-Updates] Set in the background of World War I, this is a story of a man from a noble family and the woman who is destined to love him. A poetic drama created by the entanglement of gruesome war records and fond memories of love.

[Wikipedia] The Wind Rises is a fictionalized biopic of Jiro Horikoshi (1903–1982), designer of the Mitsubishi A5M fighter aircraft and its successor, the Mitsubishi A6M Zero, used by the Empire of Japan during World War II. The film is adapted from Miyazaki's manga of the same name, which was in turn loosely based on both the 1937 novel The Wind Has Risen by Tatsuo Hori and the life of Jiro Horikoshi.

What can a LIST do?

You may feel your favorite manga should be gathered together into distinct categories for your own reference and, now, you can do this with a LIST. After you've created your list or lists, you can proudly recommend them to other manga fans to showcase and share your taste in manga.

Oh, that one is unique...truth is, I'd also like to read more stories like that! I can't think of any with the exact same theme...but maybe you could try Versailles no Bara, Versailles of the Dead, Kiss Me Princess, Shounen Oujo.

Btw, you might like “All Colors of Snow” in a European setting
And “The Scarlet Rose” too

Really helpful list thank you! It allows me to find historical stories by definition avoiding the fantasy/ another world one (not that I dislike them, but it’s hard to classify now x’D)

Oh, I'm glad if it's helpful!
Btw, thanks for your suggestion...I'll definitely read those stories! (●'◡'●)ノ

The only courtesy that I ask is to not copy my lists please, like the title, style, content and, of course, description and comments when I leave some.

Thanks!
