Synopsis

In the body, various types of cells, enzymes, and immune systems work to carry out their respective functions to sustain human life. Among the trillions of cells, there lived a Red Blood Cell who is charged with delivering oxygen and nutrients to all body tissues and cells. In the middle of work, she met a White Blood Cell who dispelled the bacteria that managed to break into the body. The White Blood Cell then helped the Red Blood Cell who is still confused with her task.

Tanto Dhaneswara – KAORI Newsline

With its premise, I immediately remembered the French classic animation series, “Once Upon a Time … Life” that once aired in Indonesia. The story in Cells at Work! story is actually not much different from that French animated series. But this series comes with many anime tropes that makes it feel more “fresh”.

As an anime series, Cells at Work! anime comes with complete package. The story is simple, the comedic bit and timing feels right (the first episode can be made just like a romcom story), the characters are so diverse (ranging from cute thrombocyte cells to badass T killer cells), and really cool action scene by David Production, and of course, the various cool trivia about our body system.

Will the Red Blood Cell meets again with the White Blood Cell? Will we meet other cells that look cooler with the typical anime style? Stay tuned on Cells at Work!
