The Prince's Body Pillow Vol. 1

An adorable Boys’ Love rom-com manga that you won’t want to sleep through! Set your alarm and prepare for the odd pairing of the sleepiest student and the guy in charge of getting him to class on time.

Mahiro, the president of the disciplinary committee, is assigned an unrefusable task: ensure the chronically late Asuma finally makes it to school on time. The solution places Mahiro in Asuma’s room, a situation that leaves him visibly uneasy. His concerns prove warranted when a morning wake-up attempt ends with Asuma pulling him into bed.

Asuma soon declares that hugging Mahiro is the only way he can get up, and from that point on he stays constantly at Mahiro’s side. Their close quarters quickly become even closer.

A BL romantic comedy of attachment and infatuation between a laid-back troublemaker and his easily flustered, by-the-book caretaker.
