So, I was thinking about something just now. I was just reading chapter 99, where Jasdebi are talking to Allen about the debts that Cross left them. Jasdero says that their debts add up to 100 guineas. I wasn't sure what kind of currency this was, so I went to look it up, and I found out that guineas were no longer minted beginning in 1816. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guineas#Nineteenth_century) So, I was wondering, if the series takes place in the 19th century, do you think that the reasonable timespan that the series takes place in is between 1800 and 1816?

Sorry for the rant, lol. xD

I don't think that the series takes place in the timespan between 1800 and 1816. I think it's closer to the end of the 19th century. I doubt alot if there were any telephones and trains in the time of Napoleon -__-
And in the anime you can also find some signs, that DGM takes place in the end of 19th century. For example, on this screencap you can see a poster, that was drawn by Alfons Mucha in 1897.
