CELLS AT WORK



Cells at Work written by Akane Shimizu

Released as a manga March 2015 and still ongoing. Just recently this manga aired its anime adaptation.

The story is about how cells in the human body works and function, much like that PIXAR film Inside Out where the story shows how ones personality and memories develop as a person grows old. While this series follows the flow of blood and each of their functions.

The story follows the Red Blood Cell



Running along delivering nutrients to specific areas of the body. Looks tomboyish right? Recently saw some forums saying that the lead RBC character is a guy who looks like a girl but that is to be seen since some wikis end up having wrong information being posted and later are corrected by the admins.


Our main character later meets White Blood Cell and Platelet (yeah Platelet is the little girl riding the shoulder of the White Blood Cell)




This series also does not only follow the cells but also bacteria as well




Makes you want to ask if they are related to someone from another legendary anime


Yeah the character design for the bacteria seemed to have been based from this guy. Made a quick research on that and well I ended up empty handed so I will update this on a later date.

One thing caught my attention are the character designs to each personification of the cells and bacteria. At first it seemed like a lazy design since each cell group has one basic character design


ADORABLE LITTLE PLATELETS!!!





But they were able to make some changes for each characters to distinguish one from the other... somehow

To date there are two episodes that has been aired and so far it has been entertaining and will make you want to see the next episode right away.

For now this will by my take on a review for Cells at Work anime series and I might read the Manga later on
