A character doesn't just live inside a bubble. A character is experiencing their adventure somewhere. This "somewhere" is called a setting. The atmosphere (sfeer) inside that setting, then determines what that setting looks and feels like
In Pinocchio Vampire Slayer there are three different settings:
- Pinocchio's hometown
- The ship
- Romania (forest)
The atmosphere describes the feel of the imagery (the comic) and language of the setting.
