*Recibí este libro adelantado por NetGalley a cambio de mi honesta opinión. Gracias a NetGalley y a UdonEntretainment por el libro (ARC).*

Este manga me encantó mucho. La historia y el arte son bellos. La historia se cuenta por pequeños episodios y de ahí se desarrolla todo. Los dibujos extras ayudan a resaltar la historia. Es un slow burn pero bien lindo. Los personajes son lindos y la química se da muy bien. Emocionada por leer el resto de los volumenes, cuando salga la publicación los estaré comprando. 

Esta versión, es la primera traducción al inglés, y al momento solo hay dos publicaciones. En otros idiomas ya hay más publicaciones a la venta.

Un superbe manga à découvrir ne serait-ce que pour la beauté de l'ouvrage !

J'ai été complètement absorbée par ces dessins et cette jolie colorisation. Le livre est soigné, a des allures de catalogue de mode et transmet une atmosphère bien particulière.

Pour ce qui est de l'histoire, elle n'est pas des plus transcendante puisqu'on suit plutôt des moments de vie qu'une véritable histoire qui s'étend tout du long mais ça marche plutôt bien ici ! On sent en revanche que la suite promet d'enchainer sur quelque chose de plus concret. Ce choix nous permet par ailleurs de nous attacher aux deux personnages principaux, sans pourtant en connaitre beaucoup sur eux.

En bref, une superbe découverte ! Il me tarde de lire la suite !

Oh, I understand now.

I saw the excitement on Twitter when the license for Veil was announced, but I wasn't aware of it other than the gorgeous covers, and now that I've read this full-color feast for the eyes, I understand...

Veil is a story that's set in snapshots around "he" and "she," little moments in time bookmarked by tiny monologues of feelings and it's just, it's just lovely! The whole thing is lovely. I can't believe I read it early as an ARC and now I have to wait a few weeks to go buy the first volume and make sure it's always in reach of my eyes.

Additionally I'd like to mention that the lettering style is really unique to manga, a tilted, almost handwriter-y font that adds to the sort of light feeling of moving through the lives of these two and I adore it. 

Can't wait for volume 2.

Thank you to Udon Entertainment and NetGalley for the eARC!
