Sleeps In Sunbeams's manga / #Coma(2)

This story had some overlying sadness that made it a little darker than I anticipated. From loss of a parent with yankee student Akito’s mothers death when he was young, and bully-magnet Ryou’s neglectful parents to Sora’s emotionally abusive parent, the boys in this story all had difficulties to manage. Add to that the secret that Ryou has forgotten and the heavy burden of guilt felt by Akito and you would think this was a heavy psychological story. But it was most of all a BL, and the romance between the MCs was sweet and caring. I really liked the surprising well of strength in Ryou too. A very good story overall

Story is completed I loved this story so much. It’s one of my favourite tropes to have the ML be considered powerful and dangerous to everyone except the one he loves where he is a protective, gentle, and loving pushover. Crown Prince Muyeong is truly a frightening beast. He is a cold and ruthless killer in war, capable of what can only be considered atrocities. His reputation becomes such that his mere appearance on a battlefield would have the enemy fleeing. Hwayeon Ryu is the beloved daughter of Chancellor Ryu and awakening from a coma she is now also also the reincarnated Yeonu Lee with all the traumatic memories of her short life in a distant future. With all the memories of both, Hwayeon is a gentle and sweet soul who is drawn to Muyeong and only sees the best in him. Their story is packed full of comedy (especially from their respective families) and a beautifully intense connection with each other. I really recommend and will read this again. Hwayeon Ryu, without knowing the cause, falls into a coma at the age of six. Then after 12 long years of her father, Chung Ryu's persistent attempts, she finally opens her eyes. As she wakens from her prolonged sleep, she realizes she not only has her memories but has the memories of someone else's life, Yeonu Lee. Though startled at first, as time passes, she manages to adjust to her new life. Then one day, in hope to have lunch with her father, she pays a visit to the palace. But she ends up taking the wrong turn and finds herself in front of the notorious beast, crown prince Muyeong... The story unfolds then, when the soft and delicate flower Hwayeon meets the arrogant and fearless beast, Muyeong.
