The Ramparts of Ice to Get 2nd Season in October
### Synopsis
A second season of The Ramparts of Ice has been announced with a teaser visual. Its broadcast will begin on October 1 at 11:56 PM JST. ©阿賀沢紅茶／集英社・TVアニメ「氷の城壁」製作委員会 The first season of The Ramparts of Ice debuted on April 2. Netflix’s synopsis for the show reads: The story centers around Koyuki Hikawa, a socially withdrawn student who keeps an emotional wall between herself and others. The only person she spends time with is her longtime friend, Miki Azumi. One day, her quiet life is disrupted when a boy named Minato Amamiya inexplicably starts trying to break through her barriers. The aloof Koyuki, the high school idol Miki, the overly familiar Minato and the laid-back basketball player Yota share an awkward, occasionally frustrating, yet wholesome student life. The anime adapts the manga by Kocha Agasawa, whose other title You and I Are Polar Opposites also has a 2026 anime with an upcoming second season. The Ramparts of Ice manga, which was serialized from January 2020 to April 2022 via LINE Manga, received a special award at the 2nd Shueisha Shojo Manga Grand Prix (which has LINE’s involvement) and placed first in Comic Natalie’s Tateyomi Manga Award 2024 in the Completed category.
