It takes place in France both before and after World War I, and starts off when Ray, a young boy, meets Vendemiaire #1 for the first time.The manga ran in the seinen magazine Monthly Afternoon from 1995 to 1997, and was compiled into two volumes. |

Ambiguously Human: Vendemiaire #2's master. He has Pointy Ears, and seems to exert some sort of supernatural control over Vendemiaire and his other automatons. He also has a pet crow who apparently has magical powers of its own. |

Hoist by His Own Petard: Brumaire tries to get Vendemiaire #4 into trouble by teaching her to kill a rabbit who has been trapped in order to end its suffering. Vendemiaire #4, having observed Brumaire in order to imitate her, notes that Brumaire is miserable from the good-girl expectations her father has laid upon her and her hatred for being trapped in the town they live in, and ends her suffering by smashing her head with a rock and rendering her a vegetable utterly dependent upon her father's care. |
