Volume two of Veil has a more romantic tone than the first, but still doesn't define their relationship in any certain terms. I found this volume softer than the first with scenes that deepened the characters more and told you more about their personalities. I love how slow and relaxing this manga feels. I think it will easily be a comfort read for many people.

Thank you to Udon Entertainment and Netgalley for the ARC.

The sequel in the sweet and beautiful story of two people and their relationship as they live their lives in the city. He's a police officer and she's a runaway heiress. They're neighbors, friends, and possibly something more. The book is so beautifully illustrated and every page is a delight. The relationship is one I love seeing grow and the dialogue is just so well done. I would highly recommend this series!!!

*Thanks Netgalley and Udon Entertainment for sending me an arc in exchange for an honest review*

You really start to see the relationship blossom slowly in this volume through the little snippets of daily life and the conversations they have. This type of storytelling is a breath of fresh air and leaves me wanting more as soon as I'm done. The artwork is still absolutely stunning.

The beautiful art style continues in this volume and its strengthend by a much clearer story than vol1.
With that said it's still rather avant-garde/ slice of life.
The stakes are low the visuals are pretty. This is a calming read.
