Loved the concept of Cells at Work! Code Black as many of patients we see in hospital have other co-morbidities that impact how the body responds to illness. My mechanical aortic valve theory is clearly nonsense, but I left the section in the video as I seemed to like it at the time! Have a super week everyone! X
Should i mention there will an PV for The Manga, not a REAL EPISODE, but still something to look at, nothing for a full episode but something for you to enjoy on your own time. m.th-cam.com/video/_hpb6P9gurA/w-d-xo.html&feature=emb_title
Though I'm sure others will mention, it's also called Black because an abusive and terrible corporation that treats their employees badly are called a Black Company in Japan. This body is its own black company in this manga
Thanks for the video and I hope you are aware Cells at Work Black is getting an anime as well later this year. I'm actually surprised and wonder how they are going to handle the STD's chapter.
Code Black Volume 3 has an even cuter white blood cell. Red blood cell even calls her "white blood cell girl". The author clearly has fun with being less restricted, but also: it still does not go over board.
@@UltimatePower01 Well, you're kinda right. The word "weeb" came from the word "weaboo" which, for unknown reason, came from the word "Wapanese" which exactly means "White Japanese", a derogatory term against to western people, especially whites, who is obsessed with anime and also either thinks that Japan is like anime or doesn't know Japanese culture at all and somehow can't respect the Japanese culture. They can't also see anything dark from Japan. Everything for them is positive. Nowadays, we degrade (or upgrade) the term as simply as obsessed to anime or likes anime and/or the Japanese culture, and some embrace that word as one of their description. For me, I just use it either as a meme, or to simplified the discussion, but I don't describe myself as weeb, since I'm Asian (Filipino, to be specific). I like anime and Japanese culture too but, at the least, I also know that Japan has also a dark side. Some may take it as an insult, some as compliment. But at the least, we should know the origin of it~ + Language, in general, should continue to evolve or else it would be "dead", just like Latin. Edit: To be specific, I didn't used the weeb as an insult here, but as both a meme and a compliment~
I honestly think I like Black more than original Cells at Work, it's just as entertaining but doubles as a warning not to let your own body get to this level.
Tom Asciola I’m the opposite I like Code Black but I’m not attached to the characters as much as The original Cells at Work. Code Black characters are more shock value vs character building...
I like code black, too. It reminds me not to keep reading and playing games after 10pm. My hepatocyte needs rest. I wouldn't want my hepatocytes got to that condition. Poor little things. Lol
I keep hoping they someday release a spinoff Cellst At Work about a female body getting pregnant, and showing how preganacy develops and affects the body as the months pass by. Personally I think it would make excellent Sex Ed material.
TBH as someone who does an unhealthy amount of both, I feel like its the other way around. Though actually getting the manga is more involved (read: expensive), since its mostly not available legit on subscription services (Crunchyroll does have a teeny tiny utterly worthless manga library, and Shounen Jump has a phenomenally good service, but thats it as far as Im aware)
@@Magmafrost13 I agree. Because in reading, you control your pace. You can speed it up until the important parts or slow it down for when you want to take in more of what's happening. In watching anime, that's virtually impossible since you're stuck with how the show paces itself. Oh a filler episode? Let me just skip ahead to the next episode and... you missed an entire plotpoint at the end of that filler episode and got spoiled already to what's the outcome. There's no skimming in watching, unlike reading. Which makes reading a lot more accessible and less time consuming than watching, imho. Manga books aren't that big plus there's a lot of digital copies available online, so convenience isn't a problem anymore unlike reading back then. And not to mention, the manga is ALMOST always better than the adaptation. But maybe that's just me.
Timothy Pryor my university (in the UK) actually has a book called “The Manga Guide to Relativity” in the physics section in the library, so maybe it is not impossible.
@@hinleung7502 "The Manga Guide to Databases" was published in Germany as "Informatik-Manga: Datenbanken" by the publisher Vieweg, which is typically a scientific/high level professional publisher. It is labeled as "populär", but beeing published by Vieweg highly increases the chances of ending up in a university library.
While it is fictional, the attention to detail does make it a valuable learning tool, just like the navigators' handbooks with pornographic images superimposed on the constellations used for navigating. It's FUN, and it isn't awfully wrong. I know so much more about disease and the immune system from watching this show, especially with the expert commentary from Dr. Hope.
From what I saw the body in the main series is relatively healthy considering it had a minor cancer. (Only calling it minor because there didn't seem to be any outside influence that stopped the cancer). The body had a scrape, some general infections, hey-fever and heat stroke. With a Major accident happening later in the book. Honestly that body did pretty well, the only mjor stuff was the heat stroke and an injury.
Thank you. It annoys me hearing people talking about how the body in cells at work is sick all the time. You get bacteria invading your body every day. Your body is constantly under attack even when you are healthy. Even the cancer, the person probably never even knew they had a cancer.

Code Black in North America typically refers to a bomb threat or suspicious object being discovered; the hospital being at max capacity is more of a UK thing. It doesn't have a uniform meaning though and isn't part of any standardized color code in the US. The TV drama Code Black uses it in the overcrowded meaning, but I far more often see it in the US for bombs, which is also what it almost uniformly means in Canada.
@@gtf234 Ah, my mistake, I remember there being a US medical Drama called Code Black about an overburdened hospital, medical dramas muddying the waters yet again
@@truthseekerdude I did mention Code Black uses it in that context and is an American production- so it's not necessarily wrong per se and the UK does use it for that meaning too from what I have read. So I won't say you're wrong, the English title does still work albeit with a different meaning behind the idiom It's not an official code in the US, so any usage it has would vary from place to place- but codes like Blue for example have standardized meanings at least within a given state,
"people get shouty at the hospital when things get stressful. ha ha, just kidding" its ok doc you can tell the truth, we all know hospitals are chaotic realms that attract angry and stressful people
Actually, you should read the manga yourself and see what happens when you keep staying up late. Poor hepatocytes. Also you'll need those NK cells you should be producing during your sleep to fight off cancerous cells. GO GET SLEEP, MAN!! #huft
I am internally shrieking the moment I saw this on my feed. I am still internally shrieking. I was just rewatching the anime review a few days ago and this felt like a gift! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!
"See those stains up there? Those are from the last time he smoked. Just nearly got them clean too😞" (paraphrased) Lines like that really put your body's health in perspective.
Oh my god I was wishing that you would review the manga, but I didn’t think you would ever actually do it in any of my wildest dreams. You sir, are my hero
I remembered recommending cells at work black a while ago to you and I'm glad you made a video on it now! I'd love to see more of it, thanks for making this video!
No, it's just a promotional video for an upcoming tank release. It's a pretty normal practice; there similarly was one semi-recently for the next tank of Dungeon Meshi and a live action video promoting Way of the Househusband
Was not expecting a MANGA REVIEW!! Definitely love seeing your reaction and thought on Code Black and I hope we get more of it along with the rest of season 1! Btw, season 2 was just announced! So hopefully we get more of that as well!
4:34 I went through carbon monoxide poisoning when I was younger. My mom woke up with horrible symptoms, and looked in the mirror to see her face bright cherry red. She then callled 911, called my dad, and her work place. My father woke me up and said I had a lot of discoloration on my face when he woke me up. I got out of the house and I collapsed on the ground because it felt like my lungs were rejecting the oxygen from outside and I couldn’t breath. Very scary, but the ambulance got there in time and my mother and I are alive to this day.
The mechanical valkve theory was pretty interesting. And your reaction to white blood cell girl is amusing, anime girls with "streptococcus juice" on their boobs is not uncommon
Elizabeth Meyers They are Raped to death by a Gonorrhea tentacle monster right out of the worst hentai, along with the worst pun I’ve ever heard of. See, the Japanese word for “gonorrhea” and their word for “lonely” are similar sounding. To top it off, after the survivors are aided by an antibiotic droid to defeat the monsters, they send their dead off in boats down a river... ...of piss. Basically, the fool is peeing pus. While I’ve never had and will never have VD, in other circumstances, I’m thinking about trying to respect my slain White cells from now on by burning any pus I have for any reason. Give them a Viking funeral. Pus is actually the remains of brave warriors, don’t just throw them in the garbage! Cremate them with a salute!
05:10 One issue I could see with that is that Japan is pretty strict when it comes to the presentation of drug use in media, so I doubt the author would be able to do so
This is absolutely not something I’d expect to be so invested in watching 3 or 4 years ago. But now here I am. Eagerly anticipating a medical professional’s TH-cam reviews of anime and manga. Keep up the good work!
They did the same to me with Dungeon Meshi. I was excited to see it becoming an anime and it ended up just being an advertisement trailer for the manga.
I work as a video remote interpreter (Spanish) across the pond here in the States and I just want to say how much I appreciate you and Dr. Mike’s channels (collaboration?). Ninety percent of my interpretation is for medical providers and your videos help me a great deal to do my job more effectively. So, thanks!
Dr. Hope I missed so much your reactions to this amazing anime! I'll be wating for you to continuing the 12 episode of Cells At Work! Don't leave us! Greetings from a argentinian medicine student! :D
I suggest doing a read-along where theres a camera looking down at you holding the book and flipping pages on one side and another at you reading and reacting, almost like a video game letsplay!
Question: how long is one a junior doctor? I'm guessing in the U.S. you'd be a senior resident, or maybe an attending. What is the next step up from junior doctor?
So kinda like residents? In my country junior doctors are those who are undergoing graduates training (as in not fully a doctor yet) so sometimes I get confused when Dr. Hope said he's a junior doctor.
@@monicag.k.tambajong Yes, essentially the same as residents in the US (except for the fact that in the US you go straight into specialty training whereas other countries tend to delay specialising). In the UK, Australia, NZ (and probably most other countries?) it would definitely be inappropriate to say that a medical student is a 'junior doctor'. I remember some horror stories of medical students introducing themselves as junior doctors and then getting into serious issues because of misrepresentating themselves and unfortunately causing harm to the patients.
Thank you for introducing me to cells at work over a year ago and now to cells at work! code black. I love anime and manga, and a biomedical engineering student I also love anything that has to do with the human body. Please continue your reviews, they are always very entertaining and educational.
2:31 to 2:35 Trying to save face xD Thank you for this diligent review, Doc! Please don't feel pushed to react to anything before you're ready - we can be patient!
I'm glad you shared this, I'd never heard of the Code Black manga before now. I'm still waiting to see your review of the season 1 finale of Cells at Work, such a great episode!
You should give "radiation house" a shot it's an amazing manga who even got a live action tv adaptation. granted it's not your direct area of expertise but it'd be interesting to hear your thoughts on it
@@baumkuchens It's about an eccentric guy who becomes a radiation technologist as part of pursuing a childhood promise with a girl he likes, who became a radiologist (carries all he stress of her family's name and reputation). The catch is twofold: he took his qualifications further than necessary and is a certified doctor in his own right (ie he is capable of reading and make diagnoses based on the photos he takes- rad techs don't need to be able to do that, they just need to know how to take the shots and get them to come out clear, it's a professional niche of its own, radiologists are the ones who read and interpret those images); the other catch is she doesn't remember or recognize him after their many years apart since childhood and his parents' divorce changing his surname. So the meat of the story is him working as a radiation technologist, hoping to get the radiologist to remember him because he's too introverted and awkward to directly confront her about it, while constantly being forced due to various circumstances to overstep his licensed position at the hospital and contribute to reading the images, while he conceals just how qualified he actually is. It's a mix of drama with the various patients and the drama among the staff and internal politics behind directing hospitals. Ex he doesn't earn much praise for his diagnostic contributions because the doctors and most patients tend to see him as an armchair-expert butting his nose and opinions into places outside of what he's qualified to do (since only the director knows the true extent of his qualifications but is confused as to why he's so singlemindedly insistent on being just a radiation technologist and hopes to convince him to join the hospital in a higher position)
Your reaction to the white blood cell was perfect. Ya gotta wonder why they do that. I would like to see you cover more of the manga too! I really enjoy having the finer details and general concepts explain.
If you mean the doctor that I assume you mean, I doubt that they would do it since they had an issue with each other in the past. However I don't know if they had resolve it later.
First year med student here, I’m happy to have stumbled upon Cells at Work and through it your channel! I just finished the last two episodes of the anime and am looking forward to seeing your analysis
im not even in medical school or anything but i can't believe I sat through the entire video, listening to you talking about the terms and everything; It's really entertaining! Thank you for taking out the time to do this :)
Love how you review this series like it’s an undergraduate’s report! Always entertaining and super informative. Have you ever thought about discussing more novel case studies on this channel? I know some youtubers already do it, but they often feel overly dramatic bordering on fear mongering rather than being informative. I really think you would do a great job at that as well.
I just read half of this manga last week. Thank you doctor! It would be really really great if you can continue this series. Gratitude 3000! And of cause I am longing for episode 12 break down too.
Never believed that you would do a review of CAW Black at least there was an anime version. But so glad to do de manga. It's an excellent story with more mature but equally important content in medical and immune topics. Great review as always 😉
I'm currently at uni studying a degree focused around biology, the anime/manga and your commentary of it has made remembering all the different things so much easier.
THIS! I actually agree to THIS! However I'll give him a summary: Black Jack is about a doctor that is insanely skilled in performing operations however he does them without medical license and at outrageous prices due to past traumatic experiences with the medical underworld (Watch Young Black Jack first if you know why he does these operations illegally!)
The video you are thinking of is just a promotional; video for the manga's tank releases; it's a common practice to make little shorts for such purposes. Dungeon Meshi got one semi-recently and Way of the Househusband got a live action short recreating the first chapter. People keep shouting its getting an anime adaptation because they didn't read the description in neither the video nor the tweet from the publisher first revealing it.
The world and the cells at work review ends on a clifhanger, waiting for the final episode of the season. Wondering how it will end and speculating with bated breath what season 2 will bring. Very fitting for your review to end here before the pandemic. As with Covid-19 we wait to hear news and the end of the lockdown, not knowing how bad it will get or if there will be a turning point, until it happens. Only putting one foot in front of the other. Good luck to you Dr. Sick you are a white blood cell and reb blood cell combined right now.
Yes! I'm so excited to see you review this manga! I love both the original manga, anime and this spin off! Please keep going! Also can't wait for the last couple episodes review of the anime!
First we got the man watching anime, now he's reading manga. He's officially one of us now, muahahahaha~ Edit: Dr. Hope, about our new white blood cell girl. I think they want to repeat the situation in the original anime. In the original, there was a fling of sorts between our red blood cell and white blood cell. He protected her, and she wanted to see him again. And that's how episode 1 ended, leading to the rest of the series. Now, the red blood cell is a boy, so in order to appeal to him, the white blood cell needs to be strong, but it doesn't hurt her any to have very feminine attributes. And flaunting them with confidence would only raise his interest. And it appeals to every male reader as well, just saying. But I think they will end up building a connection between red and white blood cells in the manga again, but I haven't read it, so I'm not sure.
Very much enjoyed this showing. I hope you will do the rest of the volumes. But deffinitely take your time. Too much is going on and better do not rush anyways, that is how bad things happen.

One cool thing about Code Black is that the subtitle works in both English and Japanese, in japan a company that overworks employees and has a high-stress management style is known as a "Black Company", while many hospitals in the US use "Code Black" to let it be known that the hospital is officially overcapacity and struggling to meet the needs of all patients.

The TV drama Code Black uses it in the overcrowded meaning, but I far more often see it in the US for bombs, which is also what it almost uniformly means in Canada.
@@gtf234 Ah, my mistake, I remember there being a US medical Drama called Code Black about an overburdened hospital, medical dramas muddying the waters yet again
@@truthseekerdude I did mention Code Black uses it in that context and is an American production- so it's not necessarily wrong per se and the UK does use it for that meaning too from what I have read. So I won't say you're wrong, the English title does still work albeit with a different meaning behind the idiom
It's not an official code in the US, so any usage it has would vary from place to place- but codes like Blue for example have standardized meanings at least within a given state,
It still works, as this body is basically one disaster after another
Wow, didn’t see this coming!! I’m so happy you checked this manga out!
Physical copy, a man of culture! :D
"people get shouty at the hospital when things get stressful. ha ha, just kidding"
its ok doc you can tell the truth, we all know hospitals are chaotic realms that attract angry and stressful people
Especially now a days
I’ve been waiting for this episode for so long! This is great!
It’s 3am, but who needs to sleep when my favorite doctor is gonna talk about Cells at Work Black!! 😆
Dr. Hope would want you to have a good rest :)
raynaldo arlen k.eman I was wondering if you knew I was Chinese, but I guess that was a coincidence...
Actually, you should read the manga yourself and see what happens when you keep staying up late. Poor hepatocytes. Also you'll need those NK cells you should be producing during your sleep to fight off cancerous cells. GO GET SLEEP, MAN!! #huft
"Streptococcus juice on her breast"
🤪🤪🤪
The best closing sentences ever.
I am internally shrieking the moment I saw this on my feed. I am still internally shrieking. I was just rewatching the anime review a few days ago and this felt like a gift! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!
"See those stains up there? Those are from the last time he smoked. Just nearly got them clean too😞" (paraphrased) Lines like that really put your body's health in perspective.
Oh my god I was wishing that you would review the manga, but I didn’t think you would ever actually do it in any of my wildest dreams.
You sir, are my hero
I remembered recommending cells at work black a while ago to you and I'm glad you made a video on it now! I'd love to see more of it, thanks for making this video!
Others may have already mentioned it but I believe Cells at Work:Black is also getting an anime adaptation, so that's exciting.
Really?? Do you have source?
nah fam, it's just a manga advertisement
I saw an animated video with voices. Seem legit. It was in Japanese. Saw it on TH-cam. 🤷♀️
@@candacewhite9040 yeah, it is a manga advertisement. They actually do it to promote manga before.
No, it's just a promotional video for an upcoming tank release. It's a pretty normal practice; there similarly was one semi-recently for the next tank of Dungeon Meshi and a live action video promoting Way of the Househusband
Hello doc hope you can continue cells at work!🥺
Was not expecting a MANGA REVIEW!! Definitely love seeing your reaction and thought on Code Black and I hope we get more of it along with the rest of season 1!
Btw, season 2 was just announced! So hopefully we get more of that as well!
9:40 the way he said "on her breast" sounded so funnily innocent anime is just like that hahaha and ily doc 💕

I went through carbon monoxide poisoning when I was younger. My mom woke up with horrible symptoms, and looked in the mirror to see her face bright cherry red. She then callled 911, called my dad, and her work place. My father woke me up and said I had a lot of discoloration on my face when he woke me up. I got out of the house and I collapsed on the ground because it felt like my lungs were rejecting the oxygen from outside and I couldn’t breath. Very scary, but the ambulance got there in time and my mother and I are alive to this day.
@John Stonik Yes.
Was it a gas stove left burning or something? Glad you both made it through
The mechanical valkve theory was pretty interesting. And your reaction to white blood cell girl is amusing, anime girls with "streptococcus juice" on their boobs is not uncommon
she straight up has her tits exposed in a later chapter.
Elizabeth Meyers
They are Raped to death by a Gonorrhea tentacle monster right out of the worst hentai, along with the worst pun I’ve ever heard of. See, the Japanese word for “gonorrhea” and their word for “lonely” are similar sounding.
To top it off, after the survivors are aided by an antibiotic droid to defeat the monsters, they send their dead off in boats down a river...
...of piss. Basically, the fool is peeing pus.
While I’ve never had and will never have VD, in other circumstances, I’m thinking about trying to respect my slain White cells from now on by burning any pus I have for any reason. Give them a Viking funeral. Pus is actually the remains of brave warriors, don’t just throw them in the garbage! Cremate them with a salute!
Elder Millennial or eat them and freak the cells in your body the fuck out.
@@conormurphy4328 Like giving your grandparents a funeral only to find them in your lunch the next day.
@@eldermillennial8330/videos I kept putting off reading the spin-off. Maybe I'll have to get on with it. For science.
05:10 One issue I could see with that is that Japan is pretty strict when it comes to the presentation of drug use in media, so I doubt the author would be able to do so
OHHHH YESSS I WAS LOOKING FOR A DOCTOR WHO'LL REACT TO THE CODE BLACK VER. AND I FOUND THIS IWNDNBS
I'll be honest, this channel kinda inspired me to start studying nursing and I'm so glad I did. Thanks for your videos doctor they've helped me a lot.
This is absolutely not something I’d expect to be so invested in watching 3 or 4 years ago. But now here I am. Eagerly anticipating a medical professional’s TH-cam reviews of anime and manga. Keep up the good work!
They are going to make this as an anime as well! Theres a trailer of it, but Im not sure when it is going to be released.
Raisya Humaira the trailer is only to advertise the Manga there is currently no anime in production.
They did the same to me with Dungeon Meshi. I was excited to see it becoming an anime and it ended up just being an advertisement trailer for the manga.
@@FuzzyBunny28 There is now. :P
January 2021!!!
I work as a video remote interpreter (Spanish) across the pond here in the States and I just want to say how much I appreciate you and Dr. Mike’s channels (collaboration?). Ninety percent of my interpretation is for medical providers and your videos help me a great deal to do my job more effectively. So, thanks!
IM SO GLAD YOU TOOK A LOOK AT THE MANGA! It has way more detail and specific medical information in it.
They're making it into an anime! Hope to see you react to that once it comes out!
Dr. Hope I missed so much your reactions to this amazing anime!
I'll be wating for you to continuing
the 12 episode of Cells At Work!
Don't leave us! Greetings from a argentinian medicine student! :D
I suggest doing a read-along where theres a camera looking down at you holding the book and flipping pages on one side and another at you reading and reacting, almost like a video game letsplay!
Dude you went next level with the manga, Good job!
i love how dedicated you are to this fandom! thank you for reviewing this one~!
Question: how long is one a junior doctor?
I'm guessing in the U.S. you'd be a senior resident, or maybe an attending.
What is the next step up from junior doctor?
Junior Doctors in the UK last anywhere from 5-15 years depending on their degree.
UK junior doctors are doctors who are still undergoing postgraduate training. Essentially, any doctor who isn't a consultant is a junior doctor.
So kinda like residents?
In my country junior doctors are those who are undergoing graduates training (as in not fully a doctor yet) so sometimes I get confused when Dr. Hope said he's a junior doctor.
@@monicag.k.tambajong Yes, essentially the same as residents in the US (except for the fact that in the US you go straight into specialty training whereas other countries tend to delay specialising). In the UK, Australia, NZ (and probably most other countries?) it would definitely be inappropriate to say that a medical student is a 'junior doctor'. I remember some horror stories of medical students introducing themselves as junior doctors and then getting into serious issues because of misrepresentating themselves and unfortunately causing harm to the patients.
Thank you for introducing me to cells at work over a year ago and now to cells at work! code black. I love anime and manga, and a biomedical engineering student I also love anything that has to do with the human body. Please continue your reviews, they are always very entertaining and educational.
2:31 to 2:35
Trying to save face xD
Thank you for this diligent review, Doc! Please don't feel pushed to react to anything before you're ready - we can be patient!
I just saw the trailer for the anime of this and I honestly can’t wait for it!!
Alternative Title:
Doctor finds new pictorial representations to show his patients.
I'm glad you shared this, I'd never heard of the Code Black manga before now. I'm still waiting to see your review of the season 1 finale of Cells at Work, such a great episode!
You should give "radiation house" a shot it's an amazing manga who even got a live action tv adaptation. granted it's not your direct area of expertise but it'd be interesting to hear your thoughts on it
Agreed! Also, I'd like to hear Dr. Hope's opinion on hospital politics as well, which Radiation House has.
I'm intrigued, what's the story about?
@@baumkuchens It's about an eccentric guy who becomes a radiation technologist as part of pursuing a childhood promise with a girl he likes, who became a radiologist (carries all he stress of her family's name and reputation). The catch is twofold: he took his qualifications further than necessary and is a certified doctor in his own right (ie he is capable of reading and make diagnoses based on the photos he takes- rad techs don't need to be able to do that, they just need to know how to take the shots and get them to come out clear, it's a professional niche of its own, radiologists are the ones who read and interpret those images); the other catch is she doesn't remember or recognize him after their many years apart since childhood and his parents' divorce changing his surname.
So the meat of the story is him working as a radiation technologist, hoping to get the radiologist to remember him because he's too introverted and awkward to directly confront her about it, while constantly being forced due to various circumstances to overstep his licensed position at the hospital and contribute to reading the images, while he conceals just how qualified he actually is. It's a mix of drama with the various patients and the drama among the staff and internal politics behind directing hospitals. Ex he doesn't earn much praise for his diagnostic contributions because the doctors and most patients tend to see him as an armchair-expert butting his nose and opinions into places outside of what he's qualified to do (since only the director knows the true extent of his qualifications but is confused as to why he's so singlemindedly insistent on being just a radiation technologist and hopes to convince him to join the hospital in a higher position)
Interesting concept. I'm gonna check it out.
Your reaction to the white blood cell was perfect. Ya gotta wonder why they do that.
I would like to see you cover more of the manga too! I really enjoy having the finer details and general concepts explain.
Lol I've been waiting this since you uploaded code black on your Instagram months ago 😆😆😆
Heck yes, more Cells at Work! So glad to see you enjoying Code Black, I hope you do more chapters!
Do a joint review with the other TH-cam doctor that just started Cells At Work!
The original and the adaptation
If you mean the doctor that I assume you mean, I doubt that they would do it since they had an issue with each other in the past. However I don't know if they had resolve it later.
@@NameWasTaken i watched his video and made a comment and I mentioned Dr Hope and he deleted my comment it's no longer there I didn't say anything bad
@@NameWasTaken what happened?
@Abe G try searching Doctor Hope's old video titled Big TH-camr stole small TH-camr idea .
THIS IS THE BEST SURPRISE SO FAR IN 2020!!! A CELLS AT WORK BLACK REVIEW AAAAA THANK YOU SO MUCH DR. HOPE! This seriously needs to be an anime too
Oooooooh that heart valve replacement theory sounds COOL AS HELL!
First year med student here, I’m happy to have stumbled upon Cells at Work and through it your channel! I just finished the last two episodes of the anime and am looking forward to seeing your analysis
YAYY!! I needed this today!
im not even in medical school or anything but i can't believe I sat through the entire video, listening to you talking about the terms and everything; It's really entertaining! Thank you for taking out the time to do this :)
In these scary-midterms-crisis times this is the best notification i could get. LOVED IT!
Love how you review this series like it’s an undergraduate’s report! Always entertaining and super informative.
Have you ever thought about discussing more novel case studies on this channel? I know some youtubers already do it, but they often feel overly dramatic bordering on fear mongering rather than being informative. I really think you would do a great job at that as well.
I'd love to see a cells at work where the body is ill through no fault of its own. Maybe with some sort of mental or physical disorder.
yes love the review! IM so stoked u even bought the physical copy! amazing

The power of the internet
And watching your review... makes me feel guilty of not taking care of my body
I am waiting for the anime this January. I am soooo ready to apply my learnings during my online classes in my 3rd year Medical Technology course 🤩😍
Please react to the medical show Code Black! Easily the best medical drama because it focuses on medicine and not the drama
I just read half of this manga last week. Thank you doctor! It would be really really great if you can continue this series. Gratitude 3000! And of cause I am longing for episode 12 break down too.
In future chapters of the manga, when caffeine is introduce via energy drinks, it shows indeed the Red Blood Cells getting addicted to it.
I'm really enjoying your reviews. Just got to microbiology and immunology classes and your reviews have really help set a foundation for my classes.
Me: *Reads Cells at Work Black*
Me: *loses a hair*
Me: Welp, my body's gonna riot.
Never believed that you would do a review of CAW Black at least there was an anime version. But so glad to do de manga. It's an excellent story with more mature but equally important content in medical and immune topics. Great review as always 😉
dr. hope + cells at work are singlehandedly hyping me up for med school
I would LOVE to see you continue going through Cells at Work Black. This manga is INTENSE!
Oh yeah, this one looks like a more “adult” take on the cells at work concept
I'm really glad to see another video from you Dr. Hope.
its been ten thousand years since i saw last cells at work reaction
Wait for 10,000 years more for a new CAW video, Vaatu.
I'm currently at uni studying a degree focused around biology, the anime/manga and your commentary of it has made remembering all the different things so much easier.
Please react to anime/manga "Black Jack".
THIS! I actually agree to THIS! However I'll give him a summary: Black Jack is about a doctor that is insanely skilled in performing operations however he does them without medical license and at outrageous prices due to past traumatic experiences with the medical underworld (Watch Young Black Jack first if you know why he does these operations illegally!)
Doctor reading Black Jack!
Probably one of the darkest manga I have ever read in my life and it is so good,
You should definitely do some more chapter reviews on this🤩
TH-cam: A weeb doctor reacts to a manga.
Me: Whomst calling the almighty one. 😂
OMG so u r venturing into the comic world now
this is going to be FUN
Yes! I've been wanting to hear your thoughts on the manga! This will get an anime soon too so maybe more episode reactions to that 😁
Ya sure? The only trailer i saw was for the manga not an anime
The video you are thinking of is just a promotional; video for the manga's tank releases; it's a common practice to make little shorts for such purposes. Dungeon Meshi got one semi-recently and Way of the Househusband got a live action short recreating the first chapter. People keep shouting its getting an anime adaptation because they didn't read the description in neither the video nor the tweet from the publisher first revealing it.
Okay! Good to know!
The world and the cells at work review ends on a clifhanger, waiting for the final episode of the season. Wondering how it will end and speculating with bated breath what season 2 will bring. Very fitting for your review to end here before the pandemic.
As with Covid-19 we wait to hear news and the end of the lockdown, not knowing how bad it will get or if there will be a turning point, until it happens. Only putting one foot in front of the other. Good luck to you Dr. Sick you are a white blood cell and reb blood cell combined right now.
Having physical book is every poor weebs dream.
I'm actually so excited for you to cover the last two episodes, they are my favourite
Weeb.
You are one of us! One of us! One of us!
Really glad to see a new addition to this series! It's really helped my and my family understand my new diagnosis :)
Huh, seems like the White Blood Cell's epidermis has some damage.
Yes! I'm so excited to see you review this manga! I love both the original manga, anime and this spin off! Please keep going! Also can't wait for the last couple episodes review of the anime!
First we got the man watching anime, now he's reading manga. He's officially one of us now, muahahahaha~
Edit: Dr. Hope, about our new white blood cell girl. I think they want to repeat the situation in the original anime. In the original, there was a fling of sorts between our red blood cell and white blood cell. He protected her, and she wanted to see him again. And that's how episode 1 ended, leading to the rest of the series.
Now, the red blood cell is a boy, so in order to appeal to him, the white blood cell needs to be strong, but it doesn't hurt her any to have very feminine attributes. And flaunting them with confidence would only raise his interest. And it appeals to every male reader as well, just saying. But I think they will end up building a connection between red and white blood cells in the manga again, but I haven't read it, so I'm not sure.
Something more simple to explain: they wanted to make the manga more "R rated" to differentiate it and serve as a contrast to the other Cells at work.
@@TheNyleve16 Exactly. That's why the title has "Black" in it. Also, did you know that CAW: Black refers to "black companies" in Japan as well?
It's ok, later on a loli white cell appears.
YEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
I've been waiting for this forever!! Can't wait for you to get to the autoimmune disease part honestly.

Very much enjoyed this showing. I hope you will do the rest of the volumes. But deffinitely take your time. Too much is going on and better do not rush anyways, that is how bad things happen.
