Another nice episode. I personally didn't know we had something called "Peyer's Patch" in our system so in that regard, it was a pretty informative second half.

That vaccine segment was very well timed haha I love Memory Cell and how he just melts down every time he thinks 'the end of the world' is coming... dude if you just do your damn job everything will be fine! haha

The second segment about the Small Intestines just blew my mind; our bodies are just amazing!

The first part "acquired immunity" doesn't quite explain humanity's latest vaccine technology mRNA, instead of introducing weakened or inactivated germ, it introduce only the germ's “spike protein” instead, which might be metaphorred in anime as germ's weapon.

Well pointed out. I think they just wanted to keep it simple

This second episode held more biologic knowledge than the first one. Beside the famous vaccination and the acquired immunity typical scenes for the first part. Its just too easy if T-cell memories just remembered all of his memories. However, the show needed to make them took into a more slow route, right? The second was surprisingly make me enlightened with all of those new knowledge. Lol. Good shit.

Yeah, its a new course for me. Because they somehow get lost to their trip onto the small intestine, only to encountered another annoying antigen. They actually pretty smart, caught some intestine cell as their hostage. However, still, poor that bacterias, got fooled out because of dumb moron like wbc-1446 and his surrendering acting. Its worthy enough to lured them out into one of the Peyer's patch and slaughtering them all. Rip xd.

I am honestly miss the rbc-chan full screen time, as how her new daily lifes as a senpai. She really got a snippet scene all the time. Lol. Lets see if HanaKana get a full dialogues the next episode....

For a lesson on vaccines, they chose to feature mumps as that's one of the earliest humans get, so Memory Cell took a while to recognise them..

Also notice that the Macrophage and Neutrophils have a different hairstyles during the flashback scene.

So there's a trap for bacteria in or small intestines, interesting.

I don't know if it's just me, but season 2 feels different from 1. It's not a bad thing, I enjoyed this episode, but the characters and atmosphere feel slightly off to what I'm used to, more so each episode, am I just loosing it since it's been so long? lol

Decent episode. That Campylobacter was hilarious.

Next episode: dengue fever and acne. This human body in this anime is suffering so much.

Loved the way the main pairs from each section of the episode worked together (Memory Cell + B Cell and then White Blood Cell + Killer T Cell).
The Campylobacter was hilarious and I got to learn about the Peyer's patch.
Dengue is coming next...

The memory cell was hilarious. At least they found a solution before everything went wrong.

God I really needed this episode because it was so funny. The memory cell's antics were brilliant just the fact he was seeing visions even though he had a bad memory was the reason he took so long to resolve the problem. Love it. Nice teamwork between Killer T Cell and White Blood Cell to trap the Campylobacters and seriously liking the M Cell with his smooth as hell voice and the fact that he's a bartender is awesome. Never knew we had Peyer's Patch in our bodies which is the beauty of this show that educates you while making you laugh at the same time. The Campylobacters were also funny. Next will be Dengue and Acne for our next episode.

Another episode, another thing I learned about! This episode was so funny! White Cells got me good. I never thought they had a plan.

She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did!

The way they made such a fun and educational episode about vaccines and Peyer's Patch is honestly amazing.
This anime is so unique because of that, and I love it!
Excited to see how they will approach acne xD

Finally an episode about the vaccines, I was waiting for it. Vaccines are one of the best things in existence and how it works always amazes me, it could have been a longer episode though, the concept could have been explored more. Second segment featuring a new kind of cell and a new organ, I didn't know about the existence of those two so another thing I've learned. I knew he and everyone were just acting but was so great and original how they did it, this scene with the bartender was the best part. Meanwhile the red blood cells waiting for him. Good episode but I didn't like that were just two completely separate segments with nothing to do with each other, they could do it like in the cancer episode in the first season which also had two segments but were connected in a very natural way. Kinda dissapointed because of that but nothing else, the segments were great but I hope the next episodes improve this.

The idea that there is a bar in our body is hilarious.

I wasn't expecting one episode with two scenarios. Love that we got a two for one.
