My experience with koi is that the juvies are little phenotype surprise packages.  Do the black dorsal and anal fins stay black? That would be a really pretty veil koi.
When you find people who not only tolerate your quirks but celebrate them with glad cries of "Me too!" be sure to cherish them. Because those weirdos are your tribe.  (Sweatpants & Coffee)

I've never had an issue with losing black in my Koi lines. I've read recently about some others thinking that they are see a reduction in black as they grow....this female is my oldest angel in the hatchery and she hasn't lost orange, nor black at all....she's around 5+ years old...

this was from about two years ago..... ;D
