This manga is all about reality.
It's hard to read this manga, but it's hard to stop.
This is one of few mangas that will make you feel like you don't want to live in this world anymore, and the main reason is the reality of this manga. 100% realistic situations, backed-up with real-life problems and issues that you can find info about in any media.
It's no wonder some people rate it so low. Many people read manga to escape into the world of magic, superpowers and main characters who always achieve their goals and where the dreams come true.
Black Jack ni Yoroshiku is the very opposite. No magic, no superpowers, no miracles. The main character is as real-life human as possible, and dreams are what they are in reality - just dreams, while goals are distant and unclear.
Like most people, Saito Eijirou doesn't know what his goals are or why he's doing what he's doing.
Like most people, Saito Eijirou has dreams that are ruined by reality.
Like most people, Saito Eijirou hopes for miracles that never happen.
And like in real life, things never go as planned.
All 13 volumes present to you the reality of human life and illustrate how weak and hopeless all the people are in this world.
If you've already accepted the reality; if you already realized how powerless you are, then you will find a masterpiece in this manga.
But if you're still fooling yourself with "dreams come true" and "believe in yourself" crap, then go and read something more optimistic and fictitious, and come back here years later, after the life will teach you the definition of "reality".
