DESCRIPTION
The setting is a workplace where a snowy-white romance blows in like a blizzard.
Himuro is a descendant of yuki-onnas living in modern times and a newbie office worker. When he gets emotionally overwhelmed, he ends up causing blizzards or starts building snowmen and igloos. Whenever his secret romantic feelings for his unique yet kind coworker Fuyutsuki intensify, he sometimes ends up freezing those around him. Then, there's Fuyutsuki. Everyone always sees her as the cool type, but Fuyutsuki is actually also pretty curious about her mysterious coworker, Himuro.
Their relationship continues to gradually evolve daily through work and work events. Eventually, they start to spend time with each other outside of work, but they're both a bit awkward when it comes to love, so they just can't seem to get closer...

Chill with an adult cast in an demi-human friendly office space.Continue on AniListGeneral Summary
In a standard office space, humans and demi-humans work alongside each other.
This story follows a yuuki-onna descendant named Himuro, alongside a human named Fuyutsuki and their romantic antics that surrounds them both.
Target Audience
This anime focuses on targeting working adults who want small, but meaningful events. Each episode brings about small activities both for the main characters and its supporting casts to enjoy. The overall atmosphere gives a feeling of simply enjoying the simple things in life with only a fragment of intensity involved.
Characters
Himuro: As the main lead, we see the powers inherited by the yuuki-onna. His emotions dictate the chilling events originating from himself. As joy makes snowmen, deep thinking and wariness creates blizzards.
Fuyutsuki: As the main female lead, we see her stoic tone of voice align with her small acts of sincerity. With her cat, Nyamerou, leasurely strolling in her apartment, we see the value of care given for even the smallest of lives.
Komori: A feline fox descendant whose playful personality perpetuates amongst her peers.
Saejima: A supporting coworker who has interest with Komori. He's fairly straight with his actions while trying to close the gap with Komori.
Other Cast members:
Katori: A pheonix descendant whose personality and perseverance can overwhelm his peers. With fireworks frolicking amongst his enjoyment, he flashes everyone with his positivity. He works in a different office division alongside Otonashi.
Otonashi: A diligant coworker whose stern and hardworking personality can intimidate even Kotori. Her directive role within the division often inspires Kotori to do the same.
Yukimin: Himuro's little sister who who's infatuated with how cool Fuyutsuki is, much to Himuro's sibling rivalry between them.
Story
The story primarily revolves around Himuro's encounter with Fuyutsuki as they develop interests between one another as new coworkers. Each episode is filled with simple pleasures of a day-to-day life. Issues within the episode resolve within the same time frame.
Animation
The visual tone throughout this anime is often vibrant throughout each episode. Scenes focusing on scenery depicts strong emotions behind the cool characters. When there are moments that bring couples closer together, it adds new meaning within the scenery given, to a point where the environment changes around them.
Ending note
Overall, this is a great anime for those who want to chill with the cast. While there are no drastic occur throughout the anime, it gives a sense of healing with each step of the way.

It's an office romance mixed with bits of supernatural. Kind of like Wotakoi, but definitely more frustrating.Continue on AniList[LIGHT SPOILERS ARE MARKED WITH TAGS] #__Overview__ __At first glance, The Ice Guy and His Cool Female Colleague might seem similar to a known romcom anime: Wotakoi.__ Is this true? Only in some ways. Like Wotakoi, we have a colorful main cast of four, with one couple taking center stage and the second couple getting ~~not that much~~ some attention. And we also have another couple more towards the back. And of course, it takes place in an office setting in Japan. The similarities pretty much end there. Were you expecting something like Wotakoi, where the couples get together early on? If you were, well… This show is absolutely *not* like that. *You were warned!* Himuro is the descendant of a yuki-onna yokai, aka snow woman. Somehow, this is why he makes winter weather – snow, ice, blizzards, you name it, he makes it –whenever he feels strong emotions. This guy literally freezes up when he’s nervous and makes snowmen when he’s happy. __Anyone can tell how he’s feeling with a glance.__ Then we have the polar opposite of him: Fuyutsuki. (who is human btw) She’s pretty, but her face is expressionless most of the time. She was called cold and stoic for most of her life. __You can’t tell what she’s feeling without practice, and even then it’s a bit hard.__ They say opposites attract, don’t they? And this couple is no exception. There is no linear plot, mostly we just see the work and daily lives of the characters as they blush and get to know each other. In case this wasn’t hinted at enough already, <span class='markdown_spoiler'><span> This is a situationship show and the couple never actually confesses or becomes official. Just blush blush, and acting obviously way more than just colleagues. It’s absolutely frustrating </span></span> Now that you have a general idea of what to expect, I can move on to the next topic. #__The Good__ So, what is the first thing worth mentioning, hm… The art style/animation is of decent quality, that much I can say. A show that’s worth its appearances. It’s not *stunning* or anything, don’t get me wrong, it is just an office romcom after all. It’s worth noticing if you pay attention to those kinds of details though. What do I mainly notice about it? The eye movements, that’s what made it more unique and gave the art style/animation more than a single sentence. It doesn’t have a huge impact, but I haven’t really seen any shows that pay attention to little eye movements. I think it was mostly because Fuyutsuki needed a way to express her feelings to the audience without stating them outright or using a thought voice-over. Or even just to amplify the effect, since she’s known to be expressionless after all. Even so, it’s a nice little Easter egg detail. Points added. I like how they mixed the supernatural and office work together. It's one of those contrasts that mix well: the normal and mundane, and the strange and uncommon. I honestly wasn't expecting that when I heard the word "ice guy", since I didn't really look at it too hard when I started. This overall idea is just nice. Points added. All the couples' interactions are fun to watch, if I had to name the best one it'd probably be Komori and Saejima. (I like Komori's personality and her literal foxy ness ngl) Himuro and Fuyustuki can be nice too, and even though Komori and Saejima needed more screentime, it wasn't annoying how centered in the spotlight they (Himuro and Fuyustuki) were. As frustrating as it was, the blush blush and "she's too damn cute!" was pretty entertaining. Points added. Shout out to Himuro's VA, good work Kobayashi Chiaki Some other good random details? Fuyustuki is pretty, I like her design. Her outfits look great too. It feels realistic, the way she switches them everyday. Komori's ears and tail match her quite well Moving on.... #__The Bad__ The main thing I have to rant about is how they NEVER become official We have dates, we have hand holding, we have blushing, matching sets.... <span class='markdown_spoiler'><span>__BUT NO CONFESSION__ </span></span> We build up and up over 12 eps... But nothing happens. A spark is felt, they get close, But the couple in the spotlight doesn't actually become a couple Extremely disappointing and frustrating. Not enough attention, imo, is given to Komori and Saejima, even though they deserve it. Otonashi and Katori got enough time for me, but I'd have enjoyed more Komori screentime. This can be a common issue in romcoms, unfortunately Other point deductions are non-existent or come from lack of excitement. I was more eager to watch the Campfire Cooking ep every Tuesday when it aired, and watched this after. So yeah, not *that* excited, although I prioritize this over some other shows this season. Let's move to the last section. #__Do I Recommend?__ Tricky question. Are you looking for a decent to tolerable office romcom? A unique idea of supernatural mixed with mundane? Looking to try a situationship anime, or increasing the count for a genre? If so, yeah. Since bullet points are easier to understand, I'll restate that in simpler terms (and because that's just how I write reviews) - decent office romance - supernatural stuff, like ayakashi/yokai - situationship (this is less about enjoying it and more about tolerating it *cough cough*) - a male lead with an intense crush on female lead - blush blush between adults - zero lewdness, unless <span class='markdown_spoiler'><span> Hand holding and that overused "fall on top of the other person" </span></span> counts Then go ahead! Watch Ice Guy. *I warned you about the frustration though.* (Also added in my Shout-out to OP/ED music list)
