You think this is your average YA novel? Think again! First published in 1982 it came long before the supernatural love interest was trending. I read this book as an adult and I never once had the feeling that I couldn’t relate to the young heroine. This trilogy features incredibly imaginative worldbuilding, a wealth of interesting secondary characters and universal themes including love, friendship and betrayal. I was crying by the end and I mean crying, like actual salt water leaking from my eyes.

Bleach

definitely Ulquiorra and Orihime from the anime ‘Bleach’. He’s a villain but one could also consider him a ‘monster’ since he’s artificially made by a bad person for bad purposes. Orihime and Ulquiorra’s relationship reminds me largely of Reylo due to a similar interrogation scene, an emotional hand reaching scene, and overall conversations that resemble Reylo’s dynamic.

At the very end of the series, it is implied in poems and overall subtext that the author wrote that Ulquiorra and Orihime had this type of connection/bond/friendship blooming, and Ulquiorra was in love with her by the end. (It’s sometimes a controversial topic, but that’s what I believe and is fairly obvious if you look into it)

Unfortunately Ulquiorra died while they held their hands out to each other, while Orihime tried to grasp his hand, it faded into the dust. In an extra drawing the author did, that moment signified they wanted to reach each other but were destined not to. It’s a tragic story and again, has a lot of subtext, but totally and utterly Reylo.

Here’s some videos of them:

Submission by @daily-reylo Thank you!

There is a book!

Many thanks to @simple-log who pointed this out to me.

Unfortunately there´s no English translation (yet?). @simple-log thinks it´s available in Russian, Ukrainian and maybe Polish.

Here´s what I found on Goodreads:

RITUAL by Marina Dyachenko & Sergey Dyachenko

But wait, there´s more! Another book by these authors and it´s available in English:

THE SCAR by
Marina Dyachenko & Sergey Dyachenko

Reaching far beyond sword and sorcery, The Scar is
a story of two people torn by disaster, their descent into despair, and
their reemergence through love and courage. Sergey and Marina Dyachenko
mix dramatic scenes with romance, action and wit, in a style both
direct and lyrical. Written with a sure artistic hand, The Scar is the story of a man driven by his own feverish demons to find redemption and the woman who just might save him.

Egert
is a brash, confident member of the elite guards and an egotistical
philanderer. But after he kills an innocent student in a duel, a
mysterious man known as “The Wanderer” challenges Egert and slashes his
face with his sword, leaving Egert with a scar that comes to symbolize
his cowardice. Unable to end his suffering by his own hand, Egert
embarks on an odyssey to undo the curse and the horrible damage he has
caused, which can only be repaired by a painful journey down a long and
harrowing path.

Plotted with the sureness of Robin Hobb and colored with the haunting and ominous imagination of Michael Moorcock, The Scar tells a story that cannot be forgotten.

...uh!?

Sci-fi space opera classic.
Capable and honorable woman and infamous warlord come to understand and love each other.
If I were to use a very short and over-simplifying descriptor it would probably be “Jane Austen in space”.😉

THE PUNISHER (TV Series 2017)

A spin-off series about the man, Frank Castle, who was introduced as an antagonist/villain in Daredevil Season 2, known for his brutal crimes but haunted by a tragic past. He is a man full of rage and hatred, but he has his sensitive moments, particularly when he is around a character called Karen Page, of whom brings out his lighter side. The director and actors described the pair as being the only two in the series who can truly understand and show their real selves to each other, coming from similar places (much like Rey and Kylo). Similar to Kylo Ren, Frank has done some very dark things in the past under the command of somebody else, having been treated like a weapon, which he struggles to cope with.

Before watching this series, I would definitely recommend watching Netflix’s Daredevil first, so you can see how he (and Karen) are introduced and how they meet each other. All the other ‘hero’ characters in the series judge Frank’s actions and call him ‘unhinged’ while the media constantly demonizes him. Karen is the one to understand and defend him. I think Frank and Karen’s relationship is a great example of how two people can start out on opposing sides, pointing guns at each other, to bonding over their similarities until they realize they find belonging in one another.

COBWEB BRIDE (Trilogy) by Vera Nazarian

Many are called…
She alone can save the world and become Death’s bride.

Cobweb Bride is a history-flavored fantasy novel with romantic elements of the Persephone myth, about Death’s ultimatum to the world.

What if you killed someone and then fell in love with them?

In an alternate Renaissance world, somewhere in an imaginary “pocket” of Europe called the Kingdom of Lethe, Death comes, in the form of a grim Spaniard, to claim his Bride. Until she is found, in a single time-stopping moment all dying stops. There is no relief for the mortally wounded and the terminally ill….

Covered in white cobwebs of a thousand snow spiders she lies in the darkness… Her skin is cold as snow… Her eyes frozen… Her gaze, fiercely alive…

While kings and emperors send expeditions to search for a suitable Bride for Death, armies of the undead wage an endless war… A black knight roams the forest at the command of his undead father … Spies and political treacheries abound at the imperial Silver Court…. Murdered lovers find themselves locked in the realm of the living…

Look closer — through the cobweb filaments of her hair and along each strand shine stars…

And one small village girl, Percy—an unwanted, ungainly middle daughter—is faced with the responsibility of granting her dying grandmother the desperate release she needs.

As a result, Percy joins the crowds of other young women of the land in a desperate quest to Death’s own mysterious holding in the deepest forests of the North…

And everyone is trying to stop her

k10c2:

I just wanted to recommend this series. 😀 I was hesitant at first…(I know it isn’t exactly similar to Star Wars, but I noticed someone recommended Scarlet Heart Ryeo.~ sooo) If you get the chance check it out. 🙂

War has its cost, and the Servants of the Bright Heart and the Servants of the Dark Heart have been locked in a struggle that has defined life—and death—for millennia. But the end is coming, and only the Lady who has served the Bright Heart for the whole of her immortal life has seen it, in a vision that spans time and demands the highest of prices.

Thanks @k10c2 for the recommendation!
