I've been watching the first season of Cells at Work! with my family; my parents are both doctors, and they absolutely geek out with all the medical knowledge that's dropped in the show.

Overall, a pretty entertaining and lighthearted show that I don't mind watching whenever I'm bored.

Chartreuse is my favorite color.

I was going to make joke about how he walked her home gently and nothing like that happened, but obviously that wouldn't work because they were already home.

And Cells At Work 2 is just over now apparently. 8 episodes. 5 of which were focused on that annoying Goddamn Normie Cell.

That season sucked. Biggest flop of a follow-up season since Aldnoah Zero.

She was practically a secondary character this season. And that pisses me off.

What went wrong?
Yugoslavia's back baby...
…
How the hell did this happen?
Well...we don't actually know. Just sort of happened one day.
Is it a reunited Yugoslavia in the 21st century? Is a rebel colony world in the far future? Is it a race of cyborg neo-life at war with any assimilating organisms they come across in the far far future? Who knows, who cares?
New Yugoslavia just is.

Read the entirety of Alice in Borderland plus Retry and Alice on Border Road recently after enjoying the Netflix adaptation of the first half of the original. As good as the Netflix series was the manga was definitely a big improvement in terms of characters and themes, and I really wasn't expecting it to go super hard with game theory concepts towards the end - the bit where a guy breaks out of Nash Equillibrium in a Keynesian Beauty Contest by getting the dumbest player to temporarily cooperate owned so hard, and the Jack of Hearts game was a really nice self-contained psychological thriller.

Retry was short but had a nice extra game, Border Road was an interesting change of pace by shifting things into full-blown post-apocalyptic (or so they think) survival but definitely wasn't as great as the original.

You lasted longer than me, I abandoned it without looking back early in the second episode. It is depressing that (supposedly) the animation studio was founded with the primary purpose of adapting that story.

Can confirm, my physician cousin loves the series.

And then I reminded her that Code Black is a thing; with another cousin we shot the shit on what the original body in Cells at Work! was.

Dr. Cousin: [The original body] is immunocompromised.
Other Cousin: HIV?
Me: Nah, HIV/AIDS would be a Code Black thing; cancer, on the other hand...

I don't know why this episode of Otherside Picnic gave me impression
there's going to be time travel shenanigans regarding Sorawo and Uruma being revealed to be same person in different parts of timeline. Even though they don't look physically completely same.
