INTRODUCTION:
This is a school life Rom Com that evolves around Suzuki, an energetic girl who can’t help but follow the crowd, and Tani, a quiet boy who can easily speak his mind. The original manga by Kocha Agasawa was serialized on Jump+ until 2024, and it received many awards. The English version of the manga is available online on MANGA Plus by SHUEISHA and published in print and digital by Viz Media. Lapintrack is the anime studio that will adapt this series into anime.
The Ramparts of Ice, also known in English as Ice Castle Wall, was originally self-published as a webtoon before being serialized on the Line Manga app from January 2020 to April 2022. The series was later collected into 14 print volumes released by Shueisha.
INTRODUCTION:
Koyuki Hikawa is a socially withdrawn student who keeps an emotional wall between herself and others. The only person she spends time with is her childhood friend, Miki Azumi. One day, Koyuki’s quiet life is disrupted when a boy named Minato Amamiya inexplicably starts trying to break through her barriers.
The aloof Koyuki, the popular Miki, the overly familiar Minato and the laid-back basketball player Yota share an awkward, occasionally frustrating, yet wholesome student life.
An ensemble drama shaped by the crossed paths of youth is about to begin.
