Yuki is a college student who's into friends and fashion. She's also deaf. A chance meeting on a train leads to a serious crush... but can it grow into something more? A sweet and touching manga romance from the creator of Shortcake Cake! Yuki, who's always been deaf, is used to communicating with sign language and her phone. But she's not used to English, so when a tourist from overseas asks for directions, she nearly panics...until a handsome stranger steps in to help. His name is Itsuomi, and it turns out he's a friend of a friend. A charismatic globetrotter, Itsuomi speaks three languages, but he's never had a deaf friend. The two feel drawn to each other and plan a date on a romantic winter's night...but Yuki's friend is afraid that she might be setting herself up to get hurt. Could this be something real? Or will these feelings melt away with the snow? From the acclaimed author of Shortcake Cake, the hit shojo series with more than a million copies in print, this new work is full of real-life details about Japanese sign language and living without hearing, and it's sure to please fans of romantic stories like A Silent Voice, Kimi ni Todoke, and Love in Focus!

I love this story with all my heart 1000/10

When I watched the anime I was seriously in a trance. I rewatched it 3 times it’s just too cute, the concept and overall story telling was incredible, the art brought it all together and made it magical. What an incredible story I wish more people knew about it bc it is seriously so good!! The way I laughed, cried and just felt my heart flutter with this story was so wholesome!

Sweet and Charming

This series is great. It's written well, the characters are fleshed out, and it doesn't have bad pacing. The anime of course covers the first few chapters before jumping around a bit. Interested to see how this plays out

めちゃくちゃ良かった

That was insanely good

逸臣くん見た目も中身もかっこよすぎて、、、23歳でこんな男の子いるんですか。。。雪ちゃん幸せ者だな！毎回2人の場面できゅんきゅんしてあっという間に読んでしまいました。2人の幸せがずっと続きますように♡他の登場人物の人達もみんないい人ばっかりで人間関係のバランスがすごく良い！みんな想い想われて素敵だなと思いました。ここ最近で読んだ中で1番幸せな気持ちになれた作品です。アニメも全部見たけど、もっと続きが見たいなと思いました！

Itsutomi-kun looks and feels so cool... is there such a boy at the age of 23... Yuki-chan is a happy person! I read it in a blink of an eye because of the scenes between the two of them every time. May the two of them continue to be happy forever ♡ The other characters are all nice people and the balance of relationships is really good! I thought it was wonderful to hear everyone's feelings. This is the work that made me feel the happiest I've read recently. I've watched all the anime, but I wanted to watch more!
