Shounen Freezing by Lim Dal Young & Kim Kwang Hyun

[TemplateR]

Volume 1

Genre: Action Ecchi Mature Romance School Life Sci-fi Seinen Supernatural

Serialized: Booking (Haksan), Comic Valkyrie (Kill Time Communication)

Summary:
Beings from a different dimension have started a war with mankind. To counter this threat, an academy called "Genetics" that trains female warriors called "Pandora," who can wield special weaponry and armor, was formed. Kazuya Aoi decided to enroll in this school because of a promise with his sister, an outstanding alumnus who died in battle. There he meets second year Satellizer L. Bridgette, nicknamed "The Untouchable Queen" due to her solitary demeanor but also top of her class whose battle simulation streak is undefeated, until he came... and slowly changed her.


My Opinion:
Its a great Manhwa with a great story and has a lot of action with ecchi-elements. I like it.


Also there is a Anime from T.O Entertainment and has a Season with 12 Episodes.

Re: Freezing by Dall-Young Lim & Kim Kwang Hyun

You definitely should. I picked it up not long ago and I _loved_ it. It feels like you're reading a light-hearted action-comedy that could turn into a cold bloody action-drama in a chapter, which it also does. I also love how they make the guys weaker on the girls. I.e. The girls are Pandoras and the guys are Freezers (can't remember the real honorific) and they fight side-by-side. The guys Freezes/Slows/Shackles their opponent while the Pandoras are the offensive type.

However, I do get a little irritated at the hopelessness of the boys in actual combat. They could, at least, be taught basic martial arts or something to be able to defend themselves. Because as it is now, they can only freeze, and this, if they are strong enough. Often they can only slow their opponents and what use is it to slow them enough to see their attacks, if you aren't trained to at least dodge 'em properly.

It's a great manwha, I recommend it to anyone! There's a lot of cute moments between the two main leads. There's fighting, especially from women, and lot of boobs shown. :3

I like it mainly because of the cute moments and the romance or "romance" that is going on between Kazuya and Satellizer.

Only problem is that the Editing groups are 3+ volumes behind

Re: [Seongin] Freezing by Dall-Young Lim & Kim Kwang Hyun

On the bright side it could mean we'll be getting bulk releases ^^,

Re: [Seongin] Freezing by Dall-Young Lim & Kim Kwang Hyun

Doesn't look like it. I see like, a chapter per month/two weeks out or something. :\

Hopefully you're right though. I can't wait to see that bastard get his comeuppance for what he did and is doing to Bridget!

Re: [Seongin] Freezing by Dall-Young Lim & Kim Kwang Hyun

that has already been resolved, too bad you will have to wait 2 years till you see it in english. Since that is about the pacing FTH has Editing the series.

It is surprising to me that a series that is fairly popular would only have one group dedicated to Editing it.

Re: [Seongin] Freezing by Dall-Young Lim & Kim Kwang Hyun

I am now officially depressed. you think we can petition FTH to release quicker? I still hunger for Kazuya and Bridget interaction.

Freezing is a manga not a manhwa that is why it became anime but if it were manhwa I doubt it will be serialized and in Japanese language.

 

[blai]

Re: [Seongin] Freezing by Dall-Young Lim & Kim Kwang Hyun

Freezing is one of many "mangas" that are written by Koreans as a Manhwa but got serialized in either both Korea & Japan, or only Japan, thus the editors changes it to left <--- right reading.

Re: [Seongin] Freezing by Dall-Young Lim & Kim Kwang Hyun

btw im done reading it, its kinda nice but 2 things disappoint me:
for those who have read the last chapter

Spoiler

-In the last chapter, that girl is really weak-minded to be blackmailed easily like that. Thats a big contradiction to the story. All the story showed that she's very strong and determined, whatever the situation. Then the last chapter, she suddenly become weak.
-The other thing is the boy, he don't do much in the battles, till now all he do is talk and stop bridget. But well i hope he will grow stronger later, i don't like series where the main characters are weak (i consider those 2 as the main characters of this manhwa )

Re: [Seongin] Freezing by Dall-Young Lim & Kim Kwang Hyun

Will if that the case there are many good Manhwa and better than Freezing so why dont they serialize them like ( The Breaker),( Priest ),( Yureka { for online Gamers }), (Sun-Ken_Rock ) and One Of best ( Witchcraft_Troops ). But unfortunately Japanese companies that serialize anime want money and that mean I hv sell more and more Ecchi Figures for the Otakus and the prove is what is this Shit that got serialized this month.
Only Kaiji S2 and Gintama S2 the Greatest things come this year not to mention Level E.

Nah man you dont understnad ^^ its not about weakmindedness. Shes been abused ever since she was small and this half-brother of hers has a tight grip on her. Its all for the future development of the main characters relation.

Re: [Seongin] Freezing by Dall-Young Lim & Kim Kwang Hyun

chap 43 is finally out
this chap is kinda boring

 

[M3J]

Re: [Seongin] Freezing by Dall-Young Lim & Kim Kwang Hyun

It does reveal a lot about the brother's character though, how he's spoiled and likes Bridget/is selfish. I don't think it's just finished yet though...

Re: [Seongin] Freezing by Dall-Young Lim & Kim Kwang Hyun

yeh its won't end like that, Kazuya will know the truth im pretty sure about it. im expecting at least a fight.

 

[M3J]

Re: [Seongin] Freezing by Dall-Young Lim & Kim Kwang Hyun

Me too, I hope Kazuya actually kicks ass or something rather than get saved, I wanna see him defend and fight for Bridget! \o/

Re: [Seongin] Freezing by Dall-Young Lim & Kim Kwang Hyun

Don't get your hopes up.

This arc to me was pretty boring. The next one is much more impressive.

Re: [Seongin] Freezing by Dall-Young Lim & Kim Kwang Hyun

so how much time is in between chapters for translations normally? this is a really great read so it would be nice to be able to catch up with it all someday lol
