| That Kidney stone was painful to watch. |
| If the original series was a bright and cheerful look at the workings of a relatively healthy human body, Cells at Work BLACK is quite the opposite: the body is stressed, exhausted, its owner makes lousy health decisions... All of which will affect red blood cells, white blood cells and other (familiar, but different) organisms that find themselves facing an almost lost fight in advance to keep the body going and moving forward.

| A thing I like about Code Black is how these ailments and health issues are fairly commonplace, and therefore harrowing to see enacted. Had these episodes featured rare or exotic diseases, they'd still be frightening, but it's hard to empathize and connect with since they'd be so obscure. With something like kidney stones, it's absolutely possible to hear about, have someone in our lives affected, or directly afflicted in one's life. It's a good way to try and keep viewers informed and proactive in maintaining a healthy lifestyle. |
| So no overeating for me anymore either? Damn, I really do a lot of stuff that hurts my body, eh? |
| This guy's health is fucked. Drugs and steroids to treat every issue. I wonder if this series will have an ending where he ends up eventually dying, with all the cells along with him. |

| Love how they showed Macrophages moving slower by having them walk at a maidenly pace. I know this body is already in rough shape as it is but I'm lowkey hoping those two senior blood cells get a satisfying death or something (the beareded one adn the other guy, not the MC rookies) |
| At the very least, he can afford adequate healthcare. I feel bad for the Platelets, they’re always sad. Rip grandma And he’s drinking again, dude could care less about his health. |

| Kidney stones... exactly a week ago I just visited my friend who had kidney stones. I'll show him this episode and tell him to watch this. Haaaa... what's that at the end? Is it alcohol? If it's really alcohol then the owner of this body is really expecting death to come to him. He had just almost lost one of his kidneys... Next week's episode will probably be a lot of fun. Let's talk about caffeine! |
 |
| The most things I concerned when watching this anime is what the hell is happening with this dude body, how sick is he |
| "Kidney stones are sometimes accompanied by pain so severe, they're known as the King of Pain." Just that sentence alone made me wince! |
 She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did! |
| The Glomerie or whatever were beautiful - especially the one who was talking to RBC!! Yasss, the sexy WBC threesome! I mean trio. :P The beautiful Platelets and Macrophage! <3 |
