I wish so too, but I don't know, maybe I don't remember correctly as it's been some time since I've read earlier chapters, but I have this memory that it was shown he couldn't be still alive. Probably I'm wrong and confusing this manga with a similar one, I've not reread all the chapters ╥﹏╥
I'm sure the boy is in a coma; the problem is that maybe when he wakes up he won't remember anything.
