The official website for the television anime of Miyuki Tonogaya's The Ice Guy and His Cool Female Colleague (Kōri Zokusei Danshi to Cool na Dōryō Joshi) manga revealed on Friday that the anime will premiere in January 2023. The site also revealed that Takao Sakuma will perform the show's opening theme song.
The anime stars:
- Yui Ishikawa as Fuyutsuki
- Chiaki Kobayashi as Himuro
- Yumi Uchiyama as Komori
- Kouki Uchiyama as Saejima
- Ayane Sakura as Otonashi
- Shugo Nakamura as Katori
- Hiyori Nitta as Yukimin
The "workplace fantasy romantic comedy" revolves around Himuro-kun, a modern-day descendant of the Snow Woman from Japanese folklore, and his seemingly aloof, eccentric yet kind colleague Fuyutsuki. Himuro-kun tends to freeze nearby objects or summon a snowstorm when he is agitated, and he also happens to have a secret crush on Fuyutsuki. However, Fuyutsuki is nearly completely oblivious to anything around her.
Mankyū (Sumikkogurashi – Good to be in the corner) is directing the anime at Zero-G and the new studio Liber (established in 2021). Tomoko Konparu (Blue Spring Ride, Love All Play) is handling the series composition. Miyako Kanō is designing the characters. Ruka Kawada (Isekai Quartet, Is the order a rabbit?) is composing the music.
Tonogaya launched the manga on social media where it gained popularity, and is now serializing it on the Gangan pixiv service. The manga is ongoing.
Comikey licensed the manga in English.
