Etymology[]
ゴナール Gonāru is a fore-clipped version of フラゴナール Furagonāru, transliterated from Jean-Honoré Fragonard (1732–1806), French Rococo painter. "Gonahl" is used by both VIZ Media and FUNimation.
Description[]
Coastal village or city in northeastern Lautrec. The world map refers to the town as the "Ruins of Gonāru."
The ruins in both the manga and anime resemble Fragonard's drawings of Roman ruins. Ruins appear in the work of Fragonard and his contemporaries during the 18th century.
