Veil

Veil is a story about a blind girl and a policeman. In this story you won't be seeing anyone else, it focuses primarily on these two characters. This is a story of love between Alexander and Emma but this isn't your typical romance. You wont see any drama between the two leads and you wont see an exaggerated form of comedy within the series. What you will witness is a wholesome relationship between the two with realistic progression. The story is filled with the POVs of both characters as they spend time together. The writing is absolutely adorable and simultaneously impressive.

Both the leads interact with each other often teasing the other (in a good manner) and have a very healthy relationship. They try to understand each other to the best of their abilities. The story shows parts and moments of their life together. As everything progresses they understand each other and begin to open up. The art is absolutely phenomenal and everything is colored. The intimacy between them is conveyed with actions rather than just words. They care for each other even if the other person does not realize it, kind of like an old couple.

She is blind and she wants to run free so he stays by her side to make sure she does not fall. The beauty of veil is only explainable to a certain degree. The way how Alexander carefully describes the surrounding they're in so that Emma is able to understand is very sweet. The way she always comforts him and is affectionate. The way they both tease each other with intimacy. The way he holds her hand so that she can walk comfortably. Her love for pretty dresses and him being in awe of her.

If I had to explain to someone what type of a relationship I would want to have, I'd tell them to read this. The latest volume (6), made me realize many important things. The words of the last chapter are stuck in my mind. As I write this review I eagerly wait for the next volume. An official English physical release has also been confirmed by Udon entertainment and so I patiently wait for the day when this piece of art will rest on my bookshelves. I have massive respect for the author who shows us a relationship unlike any in its own genre.

I would like to point out that you might have slight difficulty in reading the translation but everything else is top notch. If you take your time understanding everything, You'll understand everything. SO take your time and gradually read this series because once its over, you'll crave for more.

Veil is a beautiful manga. If you're a simple man like me who enjoys a peaceful relationship filled with love and unspoken intimacy. This is the manga you should read.
