Interesting, an episode about erythrocytes. It's definitely an important part of the body for being able to transporting oxygen and carbon dixode.

There's even info dump about oxygen and carbon dixode from this episode lol. Although the episode didn't feel as thrilling as the one with the Cancer Cells, I think this one was also very important.

RB cell sure got fired up after seeing the rookies. Guess clumsiness and motivation really don't match. The video about how the heart works sure was interesting. Interesting how the heart is displayed as a shrine though. WB cell sure is working hard to keep Rb cell on course. But its nice that in the end the hard work of both enabled them to complete the task. The talk in the end sure was cute.

A nice relaxing episode after all the heavy stuff with Cancer Cell last episode, with no monster of the week whatsoever (those fodder bacteria doesn't count), and a nice touristic experience for the circulatory system.

Red Blood Cell was adorable giving her best to not get lost through the body and trying to do her job well without getting lost again. Hanazawa's voice acting made her even cuter/more hilarious.

Neutrophil-kun is the husbando of the season. Professional, caring, handsome, competent, badass and can make cute smiles. Never a body cell have been so desirable.


Poor Killer T Cell at the end though, he wants some love too :(

Damn this show's really got me shipping my cells together. WBC watching over RBC was so cute, he really does have a soft spot for her, reminds me of this fanart.

Killer T punching WBC after his speech was hilarious. Don't be such a tsundere, you know you're secretly jealous of everyone being pals ;)

Quite chill episode after the last bloody episode. This was one big journey for RBC of the blood circulation which is sure really one of the complicated part of the body following restricted rules as far I remember as well. It was also nice to see WBC watching after RBC and the last Killer T speech was hilarious XD

That was cute and educational. Too bad that this episode wasn't out around one year ago, when my semester started. This was way more fun than memorizing my script xD

So proud at my girl RBC.

That was one of my favorite episodes of this series.

It felt different compared to the other episodes due to the lack of action, and the lack of action was much needed.

It felt very refreshsing and adorable seeing the WBC care and stalk the RBC and make sure that she succeeds in her mission, on her own.

The fights are entertaining but our body cells do other functions than fight. And this was a showcase of those other times.

WBC watching over RBC was just too cute! A little bit stalkerish, but for the greater good! Can we ship Blood Cells? Eventho RBC was so fired up, she still remains her silly self. I love her for it!

Poor Killer T was envious after all!

This episode wasn't intense like the previous one, but it was so informative and cute that it wasn't a letdown, either.

The way WBC gently watched over RBC, and made sure she would be able to finish her job was so cute. And the way he was impressed by it, finally observing up closely how intense it can be too! And also the way he wanted to get closer to her, he was blushing! It was also cute how he listened intently to her talking about her feat. But Killer T wasn't too happy about it, I can pretty much guess it, but I can't wait to learn more about him, and why he reacted that way, punching WBC, and feeling envious of B Cell. Next one is going to be good again!

Red Blood Cell finally learning to get through her tasks without being helped. I thought it was pretty cool to see White blood Cell to smile a bit more than usual. As the series has progressed he's been smiling more.~
Overall I liked the episode, I wonder if she'll be more consistent with her tasks now.~

I think this has been my favorite episode of the show so far. WBC's antics to make sure RBC was okay while also leaving her to believe she was accomplishing her task all on her own were both hilarious and adorable. We were laughing so hard on this one.

Great episode.

This episode defines the words 'feel-good'. We needed an episode like this after last weeks battle and this episode delivered that 'feel-good' feeling perfectly. =)

Our MVP WBC-kun had a good chance to fully observe our RBC's main job, this time taking place at the heart. He was there, stalking in the background, helping our klutzy girl when she lost her notepad and hat, as well as taking out germs that would've attacked her had he not been and the right place at the right time, and he did all of that without her knowing.

So when she successfully delivered her goods, her reaction was so heart-warming that made me smile. Even our WBC couldn't help but admire her hard-working attitude and dedication too. A shame that Killer T didn't agree to that at first and had a temper tantrum on poor WBC, but he was simply in denial and was envious after all. XD

I know shipping character based on our blood cells sound weird, but I can't help but picture RBC and WBC together, like the episode showed them sitting on a bench at the end, and I want them to be happy together. =3

Neutrophil had to protecc his waifu. Even cells can be degenerate otakus too. Equality for all cells! I'm so glad they features the platelets again. They're so fucking adorable.

Killer T Cell is obviously jealous because he has no buddies. Also, idgaf, I ship Neutrophil and RBC.

RBC did her best in this episode too. She got smooshed by a wall just to deliver a package.

Such a lovely (and informative) episode, finally a more calmed situation focused on the red blood cells and the Circulatory System. This experience was enhanced because I actually made a school homework on blood circulation and 10 years later it's still fresh on my mind.

I wanted a kiss between Neutrophyl and RB Cell, but I'm more than satisfied with the ending. Next the Thymus, which I didn't even remember that even existed.

This was a relaxing episode, especially after all the cancer stuff.

The explanation of the general blood circulation was good, tho I was expecting more detail on all the arteries.

Good for the Eritrocyte, finally was able to do her job alone.

I was really hoping the show would do something like this with a more relaxed episode, was kind of worried it would just be kind of joking battles, next episode looks to be more of the same with a backstory for the Killer T crew so im down
