High school boy Tsubasa moves to Kitami City up in Hokkaido, where he meets a "gal" at a bus stop. The sight of her standing alone against the white snowscape, bare-legged despite the freezing cold, captures his heart.
Ikada launched the manga on Shueisha's Shonen Jump+ app in September 2019. Shueisha published the manga's ninth volume on November 4.
