The Ramparts of Ice Season 2 Trailer Drops Oct 1 on Netflix

The official site for The Ramparts of Ice has released new promotional material for its second season and confirmed when fans can watch: the next TV anime outing will premiere on Netflix on October 1.

What to expect from season 2

The story centers on Koyuki Hikawa, a student who struggles to connect with others and keeps a barrier up between herself and the people around her. Her routine at school is largely solitary—until she meets Minato Amemiya, a boy who appears determined to close the emotional distance for reasons of his own. With Miki Azumi and Yōta Hino also entering the picture, the series follows four young people navigating their own complicated feelings and confusing lives.
