The Ice Guy and His Cool Female Colleague

(10+) This could have been SO much better! Opportunity after opportunity to "right the ship" just by halving, or even quartering, his frozen blizzards and self-icing! How many times did we need to see it? Of course, it's completely unrealistic in that his snow comes, it goes, leaving nothing... but some of the episodes had him blizzarding ten times! It was ridiculous. The animation was gorgeous, too, so it's a shame. The romance went pretty much nowhere even though in one episode they held hands but then seemed to regress. WTH? It made no sense. Also, the last episode was kind of a train wreck and creepy. Unfortunately, pass on this one.

I watched it with my wife since we both enjoy clean anime rom coms. At first, it was hard to latch onto because the main characters seemed a bit robotic and hard to relate to. I wasn't sure if I would be able to last beyond the first episode. However, this first impression did not last.

There is a good variety of different characters, and they each have solid depth/complexity. In short, they are all hilarious together and have a unique work dynamic that is refreshing for American culture. I would recommend giving the first two episodes a shot so that you can get a good feel of the characters in the show. From there you can decide if it's the right show for you, but I'm eagerly waiting for another season. I also like to rewatch the show to have something calm and interesting on while I settle down for bed.

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 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.
