After falling in love with the first volume of Veil, continuing with the second only reaffirmed how special this series is. I devoured it in a day. The second volume delves even deeper into that unique connection between him and her, and I was fascinated by how the author’s notes confirmed what I had already been sensing: a relationship that doesn’t fit into the typical molds of romance or friendship.
And honestly, I love it. I adore that space between “not romance” and “not friendship.” I feel it makes it extremely special. There are no labels, no need to explain everything. The moments between them are intimate, delicate, and filled with emotions that transcend words. Every gesture, every glance, and even the silences say so much that it’s impossible not to feel the depth of their connection. It genuinely became one of my favorite mangas.
One thing that completely shocked me was realizing a detail I missed in the first volume. I had thought that some black panels were an error in the English edition, but as I continued reading, I realized they represent her perspective. This left me speechless. It’s such a simple detail, but it adds so much to the story.
Truly, every page is a work of art. I would love to know more about the author; it’s clear from this work that they have a great love for art and fashion. The translation work also deserves praise again,they’re doing an excellent job.
I’m very happy to have read both volumes, and I’m eagerly awaiting what comes next. Please read it.
