| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Well this episode had more manservice than I had expected. Still a thrilling episode though with the doctor and joker card stuff involved. Acetylene is a character that I find kinda interesting. The patient this episode seems to suffers from some heart problems.. Lol, I just noticed that Hazama shirtless more than half this episode. |

| Wow... they REALLY want the fujoushi money. They could at least be a little subtle about it, but nah... Hazama needs to show his abs, while in chains. |

Oh come ON, they were topless and chained to the gurneys, how much more blatant can you get? It's the exact same thing as when the MC walks in on a girl changing. It's just as desperate there as it is here. I have nothing against the male body, I'm just calling out blatant pandering when I see it. |
|
| More manservices in this episode. Not that i'm irritated with it but is there any reason why they got topless during the entire time ? I watched the raw so i' don't really understand what's going on (but i kinda get it that they want a heart donor for the oldman) OtakuSwoosh said: Really enjoying this anime so far. Black Jack is a really intriguing character. Does anyone know why half of his face is colored brown? The original has a story for it. Dunno if YBJ is gonna cover that (Probably not) |

| Does anyone here actually know what a defibrillator does? Because it's totally not how it was depicted in the anime. If your heart completely stops beating no defibrillator in the world would get your heart beats again, I brought it up because well, it's an anime that is supposed to get some medical aspect right, and Young Black Jack who is supposed to be very good at his profession should already know that. It's particular embarrassing given the nature of the anime. If he really wants to revive the man he should perform CPR (I'm not an expert of these kind of stuff, anyone who knows a thing or two want to shed us some light on this matter?). |

You still need a defibrillator even after CPR compressions. But YBJ goes straight to using the defilbrillator before performing any CPR...and he is the genius... |
| A win-win outcome. |
 |
| I'm absolutely loving this! Kinda remineds me of kaiji in a way don't know why. And the OP is just epic! |
| So they're doing Face Transplant instead. |

| This episode was really interesting. Hayama is quick and decisive in the middle of an important surgery. I wonder how he ended up with such a huge debt... When they called him a genius:  |
| Noir… It is the name of an ancient fate. Two sisters who watch anime. The peace of the newly born, their black hands protect. |
| Really interesting twist at the end there. Reminded me a little of FaceOff the movie. Looking forward to next ep! Also, the OP theme is growing on me a little. |
 |
| that should've cleared his debt right? |
 |
| That was a ridiculous ending. |
| Oh god who are you people? |
| Can someone explain to me how they thought this idea would work? You do the face transplant....the cult members will recognize in a matter of minutes that it isn't their leader. The father gets a face he doesn't want....this is fucked up. |

| All dem abs lol I'm really glad that Hazama let that dick die, he didn't deserve to live. I'm even more impressed by the fact that he pulled a Hush from Arkham Knight and literally turned the guy into the old dude That was a pretty smart idea.....Great episode overall but I want to know who this Dr. Joker person is |

Man, some people really like to focus on trivial matters, like the ''manservice.'' Sales are important to studios (just look at Manglobe) and it's a smart business move to make the show more appealing to a certain demographic. As long as it's not the main focus, and the characters & story is good, then I don't really see the problem here. Great episode. I liked the moral dilemma Hazama had to face, and I imagine this will be a recurring theme throughout the series. It makes you think and question what you would do in the same situation. I'm very curious why he has a large sum of debt though.  |

| What's up with the character noses... They look like their from an old anime... I know it's a fill for an old series but it wouldn't hurt to adapt. Well, so they changed the good guy's face. Not bad. Didn't expect it, but then, I didn't pay much attention either. P.S.: Nice abs. |
 |
| Very intense episode. We got some backstory of Yabu which was good, and also of Hazama. I was really surprised at the end before we found out what he has done, I thought why the hell is he talking to that scumbag. Very strong episode, like it A LOT. Wonder who doctor Joker is. |
AquaWateria said: Karshi said: He meant female audience who are willing to throw money on seeing a handsome dude with rock solid abs. Fine if fujoushi means Bl lover in strict terms but on English anime community its pretty commonly used as general term for female demographics who are into manservice (these two demographics overlap anyway) so kindly don't go dictionary dictator on people. No I understand what he means, I'm just tired of people writing a series off just because it has a guy showing off his body. I'm straight but I don't find a guy showing off his body offensive in any way especially when we have many shows where females show off their tits and asses. I agree. The ladies are entitled to their eye candy too. I cannot see why it bothers people. Almost all series, even non-ecchi ones, have good looking female characters showing off too much cleavage/legs, the obligatory onsen/beach episode etc, etc. I really didn't expect Black Jacks solution to the problem. Basically he did a face transplant? Who's heart was left in the body then? |

| So they can't do a heart transplant because it's the 1960s and no patient has survived more than 18 days after one... But they CAN do a full face transplant even though the FIRST time that was done was in 2010? FIFTY years later? That was a completely ridiculous ending. |

| That sudden conclusion! Great. Also this episode explains the ending of the first one. I thought it was strange that Hazama was so desperately upset after the "father" fuck him up and did not pay. Still now I know why. A debt that can suddenly end his life (like today) is something to be concern about). But why are there comments about "fujoushi money"... hahaha can't you all just enjoy the anime in peace. Then again, comments like that are the reason why I check and comment myself. :) Ah, but I really like the vibes I get from this anime. |
SaberSworn said: Unfortunately looks like I'll be dropping this next episode. Such a ridiculous ending and I'm not into yaoi. Phobia much ? I don't like yaoi shows but this is just stupid. |
|
| why ppl hate shirtless guy so much? i thought it has been around since the 80s with hokuto no ken, saint seiya, and dragon ball... anyway that plastic surgery was gold, that's just what the future black jack would do lol. |
| Wow I did not expect that. |

If they keep on doing things like this and treating them like totally normal plot devices, I'm not say I'm gonna drop the anime, but I'll give it a much lower score (for me now YBJ deserves barely a 6). |
 |
| People sure love "realistic" settings in anime. If you love it so much, how about you go watch a documentary or something since fiction is clearly not for you? And that wasn't a yaoi scene... and even if it was there's nothing wrong with that... Suddenly guy x guy moment is the epitome of evil on this site, while sexualized underage lolis in 90% of anime are totally normal. |
| Okay I guess I'll turn off my brain for this. "Can't transplant his heart, let's transplant his face" LOL |
 |
| We don't need realism in Anime, I'm fine with how shite goes here. Black Jack's supposed to be about miraculous stuff, is cool. |

I don't see you or any other straight male here complaining about huge ass tits and ass on female characters being oversexualized and used as instruments to attract more male viewers. Double standards much? Is this how insecure heterosexual guys are nowadays? It obviously bothers you a lot since you pointed it out. Shirtless guy =/= fanservice. So Goku and Piccolo being shirtless is fanservice for girls and fujoshis huh? Pfft, puh-lease. This episode was pretty good and all you got out of it was Hazama and the other guys being shirtless? No fucking duh, how else do you perform surgery? With clothes on? They needed them stripped so it'd be easier to operate on the victims rather than having to force them out of their clothes later on. That ending was unexpected to say the least. However, I have a feeling that cult's followers will eventually realize he's not really who he says he is. |

That scene was not not even a sliver of yaoi. I guess Goku fighting antagonists topless is also yaoi, huh? These insecure and hypocritical idiots are moaning over nothing. |
| 臭い- |
| Wait the topless stuff bothered people lol. I love how they focus on a minor detail compared to the riveting ethical issues. |
 Anime is good, fucking deal with it. |

| Topless males chained down, money thrown at Hazuma by an old guy and he is on the ground like a stripper, countless topless scenes with Hazuma and wtf was that bit about Yabu blushing when Hazuma complemented him? I am sick of the obvious pandering to the anime girls. |
