List of Freezing chapters

Cover of the first Japanese volume of Freezing as released by Kill Time Communication on October 26, 2007.

Freezing is a Japanese manga series written by Dall-Young Lim and illustrated by Kwang-Hyun Kim. The series revolves around an extraterrestrial force called the Nova that are invading Earth, and genetically engineered girls called Pandoras and their male partners called Limiters are created to combat them. The story centers on Kazuya Aoi, a Limiter whose late sister was a Pandora, and Satellizer el Bridget, a Pandora with a cold personality who is known as the "Untouchable Queen" for her intense fear of being touched. Both are enrolled at West Genetics Academy, which is a special school that is part of a series of academies that trains Pandoras and Limiters alike to fight against the Nova.

Freezing started serialization in Kill Time Communication's seinen manga magazine Comic Valkyrie in its March 2007 issue, published on January 27, 2007.[1] The first tankōbon was released in October 26, 2007,[2] with a total of twenty-five volumes sold in Japan as of October 25, 2014 under its Valkryie Comics imprint.[3] Freezing is currently split into two parts: Part 1 which ran from Volume 1 to Volume 14, spanning 96 chapters; and Part 2, going from Volume 15 onwards and currently ongoing in Comic Valkyrie.

A spinoff manga, called Freezing: First Chronicle (フリージング ファーストクロニクル Furījingu: Fāsuto Kuronikuru), illustrated by Jae-Ho Yoon (the illustrator of Lim's light novel-based manhwa The Phantom King), began serialization in the November 2011 issue of Comic Valkyrie (released on September 27, 2011),[4][5] and ran four chapters until the March 2011 issue (released January 27, 2012).[6] A prequel to the original series, the story centers on Chiffon Fairchild and Ticy Phenyl's first year at West Genetics prior to them becoming Student Council President and Vice President, and also explains the origin of Chiffon's title, "The Unmatched Smiling Monster". First Chronicle was later released as a tankōbon volume on February 29, 2012.[7]

A second spinoff manga, called Freezing: Zero (フリージングZERO Furījingu: Zero), illustrated by Soo-Cheol Jeong (the illustrator of Lim's novel-based manhwa The Legend of Maian), began serialization in the May 2012 issue of Comic Valkyrie (published on March 27, 2012).[8] Like First Chronicle before it, Zero is also a prequel to the original series, chronicling the back stories of many Pandoras prior to them attending Genetics. The first bound volume of Zero was released on August 29, 2012.[9] A third spinoff, called Freezing Pair Love Stories (フリージング ペアラブストーリーズ), began serialization in the April 2013 issue of Comic Valkyrie.[10]

Outside Japan, Freezing is published in South Korea by Haksan Culture Company,[11] where it is serialized in Booking;[12] in France by Bamboo Edition under their Doki-Doki manga imprint;[13] and in Taiwan by Tong Li Publishing.[14] A 12-episode anime adaptation by A.C.G.T. aired in Japan between January and April 2011 on AT-X and other channels.

The Earth has been terrorized by large creatures called Nova; in order to combat them, Pandoras, teenage girls with special abilities, have been developed and trained at West Genetics Academy in Japan. In one of the school’s tournament battles known as the Carnival, two girls are fighting each other, however a guy suddenly rushes one of the girls with a hug, thinking that she is his sister. Kazuya Aoi, the guy in question, is a new student at West Genetics; he learns that the girl is Satellizer el Bridget, nicknamed the “Untouchable Queen”, who, as a result of his interference, lost her number-one ranking among the second-year Pandoras. In an unsanctioned fight, she and Ganessa Roland, the other girl in the match, both activate Pandora Mode, which upgrades their abilities, until their teachers order them to stand down. As Kazuya gets settled at the dorms, he learns that the Pandoras partner with younger male students called Limiters who cast “Freezing” auras that paralyze their opponent. He apologizes to Satellizer, and upon learning that she is actually quite shy and sweet in private, asks to become her Limiter. They are interrupted by the sadistic Miyabi Kannazuki, a third-year student who employs multiple Limiters, and who wants Kazuya for her own. Miyabi humiliates Satellizer, but when Kazuya surprises everyone by countering with his Freezing ability, Satellizer fights back and stabs Miyabi. Later on, third-year Pandora Ingrid Bernstein challenges Satellizer to a duel, but gives her one last chance to find a Limiter.

Ingrid is angry that Kazuya and Satellizer are not acting properly. The story flashes back to when Ingrid was in a squad with her friend Marin Maxwell for a training exercise against dummy Nova opponents when they were attacked by a real Nova. Marin sacrificed herself in order to give time for the then second-years to retreat. Back at the present, Ingrid goes into Pandora Mode, but almost loses her sanity until Kazuya stops her. Satellizer agrees to have Kazuya be her Limiter but without going through the “baptism”[note 1] process. In anticipation of their first “room visit”, Kazuya goes to the town to shop, but when he is ambushed by city thugs, he is saved by Rana Linchen, a girl from Tibet. They meet Hiiragi and Arthur, but the thugs return and hold Arthur captive at gunpoint.

Schoolmates Feris and Tasha tell Chiffon to stay away from Ticy, but Chiffon prefers they all be friends, and does not care about pecking orders. Feris and Tasha extort Ticy into taking embarrassing photos of Chiffon by abducting her pet turtle. However, the turtle dies and they try to replace it. Chiffon gets upset for Ticy that she asks for the girls to return her turtle, but the girls tell her they can settle it at the Summer Carnival.
