While it might look like you don't really need to know all of this, you never know when it will be useful: for instance with quizzes, random questions that you wouldn't know the answer to otherwise, fun facts to tell someone else, or if there's trouble or necessity of intervention in your vicinity.

When this stack gets full, I'll make #2 with the links in both descriptions, no manga in here will be swapped out (or in).

Ch 42 is A+ still the most frequent blood type in Japan nowadays? => According to Wikipedia it is, with almost 40% who have type A (and rhesus positive is way more common than rhesus negative regardless of the location).

There are exceptions but it seems that most in America, Europe and Africa have O+, and most in Asia have A+; both of them are the two most common blood types in almost any country.

Ch 43: ABO-blood type categorization + Lewis blood type categorization (less used but still important)
