Cells at Work! Black Promotional Video

Cells At Work! Black

Kodansha has released a PV (promotional video) for Cells at Work! spin-off manga, Cells at Work! Black.

While the original manga sees a comical look at how the human body works, Cells at Work! Black (localized as Cells at Work! Code Black) sees life inside the body of a middle-aged person, riddled with diseases,conditions and issues brought about by stress, drinking, and smoking.


So far three volumes have been released, with the manga available in the west via Kodansha Comics. You can read the full run-down (by Kodansha Comics) below:

In this new spinoff of the hit manga Cells at Work!, a newbie Red Blood Cell is one of 37 trillion working to keep this body running. But something’s wrong! Stress hormones keep yelling at him to go faster. The blood vessels are crusted over with cholesterol. Ulcers, fatty liver, trouble (ahem) downstairs… It’s hard for a cell to keep working when every day is a CODE BLACK!

The manga and anime Cells at Work! showed you what happens when a young, healthy body gets in trouble… but what if the body wasn’t so young, and was never very healthy? This new take stars a fresh-faced Red Blood Cell and his friend, the buxom White Blood Cell, as they struggle to keep themselves and their world together through alcoholism, smoking, erectile dysfunction, athlete’s foot, gout… it’s literal body horror! Whoever this guy is, he’s lucky his cells can’t go on strike!
