Veil : Blanc gracieux

Veil #3

by Ikumi Fukuda

Veil est plus un rêve que vous avez fait qu'une histoire que vous
lisez, et elle persiste de la même manière, des détails flous mais
des émotions qui flottent définitivement dans votre cœur. Entre livre
d'illustrations et manga, cette histoire en deux volume est
construite comme une représentation de petits moments de vie entre
les deux protagonistes, interrompus par de sublimes illustrations
offrant comme un sentiment de rêverie. L’homme est un officier de
police, la femme est aveugle ou du moins n’ouvre jamais les yeux. Les
noms, les lieux, l’époque n’ont pas d’importance, car notre plaisir
consiste à simplement les regarder se rapprocher l’un de l’autre à
travers les chapitres.

Genres: Manga, Romance, Comics, Josei, Graphic Novels, Fiction, Slice Of Life

as i have said, if there is no development in the third volume, i'm afraid there is just nothing to really talk about. it's sketches, it's scenes of them flirting... and that's it. it's really cute, romantic and all but there is no substance - at this point, it's strictly just an art novella.

yes the scenes are a tiny bit longer and we had the treat of an extra monologue but there is quite literally nothing to talk about. i'm afraid i won't be kind this time. in the previous volume, i stated that something needs to happen in their relationship in order to even justify the existence of this series, so it has more than bones to offer. i thought it might go on the route of "what are we" but no. when there's nothing, let alone no semblance of commentary, it's hard to allow the pockets of love and flirt the artist presents us.

this series, as cute and romantic as they are, is nothing but drawings. have a good day.

Sembrano volumi che si leggono abbastanza in fretta, ma invece ci si mette tanto perché ogni due pagine ti fermi a urlare SMASH, a piangere, ad ammirare tutto il guardaroba di lei, a urlare SMASH, a pensare a quanto sono carini e dolci, a urlare SMASH

We have more of a continuity in this volume, but the strong aspect is still the silence between them, growing an intimacy that nothing 18+ could. I love reading their dialogues, but I love more to take my time and wander/wonder at the pages of innocent touches, beautiful clothes, secretive smiles, candor, and the in between poetry.

the scene where she kisses him on the cheek pretending she's just showing him her new lipstick?
the scene where they play rock, paper, scissors with a kid in a car in front of them?
thr scene where she tells him how he always there next to her and how she can't ever lose him.. like puppy?
the scene where he lights his cigarette using her high coat as a shield from the wind?
the scene where he promises to keep her treasure safe in his book? (it's a random perfume tester)
the scene where he asks her to teach him how to braid her hair?

their way just living out the feeling of this unsaid love (no, it's actually more than love with them!!) without needing to say a word is absolutely the most beautiful thing i have ever read and seen in my life.
outstanding and truly heartwarming.

there’s nothing much here but they just continue to serve and feed us plenty. this is just so cute and i love to read about them.

They were something like: "She asks him to choose a belt,
She asks him to hold her tighter".
Or "She's walking, and a few steps ahead there's a table in the middle of the road, he pushes it aside with his foot."

[Bojana's Library ❤ · Rating 5 out of 5]

One of the best mangas I've read in my life!
The short moments in every chapter are so wholesome, that you feel like you just got the best hug through a book.
The illustrations and doodles in every chapter are so beautiful and so aesthetically pleasing 😍
I'll probably continue with Vol. 4 when I feel like I need a hug in a book 🥹🥹

quest'opera è una delle mie preferite in assoluto e continua a stupirmi ogni capitolo sempre di più.
i due protagonisti sono dei cuoricini alla panna, i miei prediletti, che comfort pazzesco mi trasmettono. ♡

[Irene · Rating 5 out of 5]

Era da un po' che volevo leggere Veil e ora che ho iniziato mi ci sono, prevedibilmente, ossessionata.
Ho visto una recensione lamentarsi di una mancanza di trama, ma la bellezza di Veil è nei gesti, nei non-detti, nelle interazioni tra Emma e Aleksander. La forza di Kotteri come autrice sta non solo nei bellissimi disegni ma anche (e soprattutto) nella sua abilità di paneling: le inquadrature che sceglie, la dolcezza con cui esalta il gesto di una mano. In questo volume rispunta anche quel senso di impotenza che Emma prova a causa della sua cecità ed è un conflitto brevissimo ma interessante.
Sono molto belli anche i passaggi di solo testo, soprattutto quando l'autrice fa parlare una teiera, poggiata sul tavolo dove prendono il tè, o un lampadario, appeso nel negozio in cui Emma gli compra un completo.
Potrei parlarne per ore ma il riassunto è che loro due sono stupendi e li amo.

This is just as sweet and beautiful as the previous volumes. 🥺

Their relationship is super adorable, and their facial expressions are always on point and funny. The artwork is just so pretty in general actually.
