Have you ever seen those 1950's movies that were super colourful, memorising and just wonderful? Well look no further fellas, I finally found a manga that makes you feel like that and indeed back in time! I really liked how this manga was able to show a female lead, Emma who has a disability (she is blind) and is able to be confident with herself as well as interacting with the police officer Aleksander who is smitten by her. He literally is a gent like he does get nervous by trying his best not to make a move on her since of course she is... unable to see. Honestly if only every guy was like Aleksander for real!
I just loved both their interactions together like they are literally so adorable. I like the art too, again it’s pretty colourful that makes you think you’re watching a 1950s film from a old television set. However in this mid 21st century, it’s a IPad tablet this time lol. I would love to see this as an anime adaptation because my god, we need more anime set in 1950s Europe like this one!
Just read this everyone, you are all missing out on a charming manga art piece out there!

Nothing really happens through out the manga, you just see small vignettes and jaw dropping art of the main couple´s daily life, and yet it is one of my favorite pieces of media. Its absolutely stunning, you see very big french 20th century inspirations. The art style is absolutely phenomenal, it´s very sensual and elegant. The fashion in the manga is also amazing, it even gives off a fashion magazine vibe.
In general this manga is more like an art book than anything else. If you are okay with this type of format that I would 100% recommend.
Praying and hoping we get the physical... english version of this manga. I need to own these volumes.

literally a 🌷 V I S U A L - D E L I G H T 🌷
so this manga is just reaaa....aaaly short chapters of peeks of Emma And Aleksander.
Emma is a blind 21 y/o eloped young woman and Alek is a 23 y/o police officer. They just seem to be beautifully drawn and i cannot emphasise enough !! the art is everything -
there is little to no plot but it doesn't make this manga a less. this is like a candy you eat after meal, small and delightful 🎀
DO NOT BINGE READ I BEG DO NOT PLEASE
if you... consume in one go (which is child's play), you would not enjoy the visuals and the art in the immersive way, it also has such poetic monologues every few chapters.
in conclusion, short read, ABSOLUTELY DIVINE ART, cute chemistry between the two characters and heartfelt moments ♡♡♡
go for it when you are in a burnout, let it soothe your eyes and I REPEAT DO NOT BINGE
