The Ice Guy and His Cool Female Colleague

How wonderful it is to see mature professional relationships in anime cannot be emphasized enough. These stories are far more meaningful to me as I become older and I think they're more relatable than most high school romance novels. With endearing characters, hilarious conversation, and some truly touching moments, The Ice Guy and His Cool Female Colleague was an adorable and enjoyable journey through and through.

I was enamored with this series from the first episode. With the exception of the Yokai element, the setting feels genuine, and the artwork is among the best I've seen in the genre. It does a great job of giving us the impression that we are working with the characters in their office and experiencing their everyday lives. Narratively, the show is somewhat episodic, with the apparent goal of uniting the main couple and fostering a bond between them through work-related activities on a daily basis. It's a slow-burning tale in which the couple finds great satisfaction in their little, incremental successes. Going on a date, amusement park, etc. In short, don't anticipate anything significant.

This was a simple sweet romance with a likeable couple, some nice side characters and an interesting supernatural environment. That being said it loses its steam after a few episodes. Because there's nothing new that the story has to offer other than the usual gimmicks between the couple. And the interesting side characters (like Saejima and Komori) aren't given that much progress. So it was fine in the end. It's wholesome and sweet for sure, but it got a bit boring after a while. And I thought that the main 2 characters - Himuro and Fuyutsuki were likeable for sure, but they could have had some more depth to them.

The animation was very nice though and so were the character designs.

I like the voice actor of Himuro too - Chiaki Kobayashi, I think he's a rising star and he'll get many major roles in the future, as we've seen in Tomodachi Game as well.

This anime series is centred on Himuro. Outwardly he is an ordinary office worker but in fact he is a supernatural being who causes the temperature to drop and snow to fall whenever he experiences strong emotions. This could be a real problem when he starts to fall for co-worker Fuyutsuki however the story takes place in a reality were there are people descended from various spirits so his co-workers easily accept that he is descended from a 'snow woman'. Over the course of the series their friendship develops. We also get to know their various co-workers.

This is a rather enjoyable Josei series. The story is told at a gentle pace without needed excessive drama or fan service. The basic concept is fun and Himuro's snow creation is a way of showing his emotion rather than anything like a superpower. The characters are likeable and relatable. Overall I'd say this was an enjoyable romance with a supernatural twist; I'd recommend it, just don't expect action or melodrama.

These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.

This work has a setting where the character's appearance and surroundings freeze when he or she becomes emotional. But there's no explanation as to why that's the case. You don't need to see this whole piece. When a woman says something like, "We're a couple," the man says, "You're cute..." " is all about the development. That's really all this work is about. There is absolutely no effort or effort to do anything for a woman. Because a woman knows what she wants to do and say what she wants to say. So what am I supposed to feel? This piece of trash is a waste of voice actors. There are no rivalries, no goals, no power needed for any story. Thanks to this, it is a work that proves the decline of Japanese animation. Good job!

The Ice Guy and His Cool Female Colleague is a delightful story that weaves humor, romance, and a touch of magic into an everyday office setting. The tale follows Himuro-kun, a modern-day descendant of the Yuki-onna, whose emotions inadvertently influence the weather around him. This charming quirk leads to unexpected weather events, from sudden snowstorms to gentle flurries, depending on his mood. His colleague, Fuyutsuki-san, is the calm and collected counterbalance to his frosty demeanor.

Their interactions are filled with warmth and gentle humor, as Fuyutsuki-san navigates the chilly surprises that come with working alongside Himuro-kun. As the two grow closer, they discover that their differences complement each other perfectly. The story beautifully captures the nuances of their blossoming friendship and potential romance, set against the backdrop of office life and the gentle magic that accompanies Himuro-kun's presence. With each chapter, readers are drawn into their world, eager to see how their relationship unfolds and how they overcome the whimsical challenges posed by Himuro-kun's unique abilities.
