| Conclusion of the story: the power of friendship is stronger than the power of caffeine xD |
 |
| WHOA...caffefine addiction? AA2153 has earned his recognition as the Top Rookie newcomer, while the seniors relax at their own pace. Sebascous Gland Cell...similar to hair oil in simple terms, but even worse on the hair. The mix of "alcohol" is back again from energy drinks, but too much caffeine is wreck the body. From the inferiority of AA2153's Senpai to understanding him, friendship is always as important. |
 |
| Being a Sebascous Gland Cell is really an ungrateful job. No one appreciates if everything is nicely moist, but people notice their pimples or acne xD This episode also reminded me how much damage I did to my body due to all the pre workout booster overdose with extra load of arginine and citrulline. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Platelet speaking facts, enough with the teen drama lol. |
 |
| Considering how damaged this body is oxygen turning into ROS is hardly surprising. Jealousy and Caffeine though sure ended up becoming the worst combos ever. Those arrogant seniors though sure are a annoying pair. In the end its nice that the two friends were able to reconcile. |

| Nice episode focussing on the 2 RBC and how important friendship is. Honestly felt like the weakest episode yet. Not enough white blood cell though. That might be why it was a bit underwhelming today. |

| I think this episode is completely anime original, or, at least, I don't remember if something like that happened in the manga. Doesn't matters, however, as the new content was good and it was sweet to see the friendship of our main red blood cells strengthening despite their differences. |
 |
| He was the #1 oxygen delivering rookie, wow. Caffeine is more dangerous than most of us think, I like it nevertheless. |
 |
| NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WHERE WAS MY SEXY ASS ARMY OF ALL FEMALE WHITE BLOOD CELLS???? T____T |
   |
| The power of caffeine, it's strong and all, can be a drug to some cells as we can see there i c. Tho in the end the power of friendship wins, lmao.  Very great bonding eps between our beloved Top Rookie MC (congratulation for the award) and his friend, who might be overshadowed, but still doing great job eitherway and got passion (just got stressed over the ROS he thought he caused and all, and some inferior syndrome). They are a good friend without/despite all that. |
 |
| for a moment I thought that if the red cell would die, as the series is, everything could happen ... they really focused very little on the ROS and the consequences, at least that's what I think I have not had many energy drinks throughout my life, but I think it is one of the substances that we consume that less importance, but in which there are people who consume it in a similar way to alcohol or cigarettes |
  Humans may have two eyes, but we can only see one thing Don't use the scores to see an anime ええい！ なんでも やって やる |

favorite "new girls" from fall <3 (lol i only watched these) ... click sig for older seasons  |
| I like the original, but I find Code Black far more interesting and entertaining (and eerily relevant?). Always get a kick out of the lead platelet, too, lol |

VanishingKira said: No White Blood Cell this ep, sadness. they're the greatest thing i've seen in anime in awhile |
|
| I mean, energy drinks are not "bad" per se, just with everything else it's better to have moderation with it Poor sebum cell, his work is almost never appreciated |
| Well no surprise their, AA2153 winning rookie of the year. He did more than just deliver oxygen. He would fight even in the death defying moments and deliver for someone else's sake. AA2153 realizes many people in the body have brutal jobs that cause to their cells death many times over and that's just part of their life. Blood cells have the job of delivering oxygen, so deliver the oxygen with your life on the line. AC1677 was the main character this episode. He realizes AA2153 is a harder worker, stronger cell, more determined therefore AC1677 felt he has been left behind. When he got his hands on caffeine, he felt great, energized and it wasn't only him, other blood cells absorbed the caffeine and so begins the nosebleed. Well with the power of friendship AC1677 was able to escape death. |
 |
| Welp atleast this guy didn't become a loser like those other two. Thou this episode was pretty cringe, proly gonna be the only episode of black that I didn't like. |
 |
| You know... I wouldn't mind if those losers RBCs die in one of these episodes. They have been a real pain since day 1, honestly. Well, bromance between RBCs was pretty strong this week. All in all, it was another nice episode but not gonna lie, I kinda missed our beloved WBC trio. |
| Not gonna lie.. i was almost on my seat expecting his friend RGB to die.. considering how many imp characters have died as of now in each ep.. but Thank Cardiac that he didn't.. also.. i miss my big tiddied WGB onee-sans.. |
| The body even produced the deadly ROS inside their oxygen cylinders, which cause that explosion incidents. Cumulatively, that was known as an oxidative stress. Oh well. Beside that, there was another old cell, a controller of the sebum. The end of his job had so much impact to the upper body part, later on: body odor. Rip to their sense of smell. Ah, so the jealousy was about an eyeglasses Rbc-kun friend. Because his one and only friend received some random award then he felt a stress and mental breakdown after that. Oh well. Platelet-chan even called it a teen drama. Straight to the point, as always. Lol. Good thing that yellow hair Rbc-kun learnt from that nosebleed experience. Because no matter, the power of friendship just more stronger, compared to the caffeine power. A natural booster through the body, right? A bit of let-down from the previous episode, honestly. The feels just not so strong this time. But, well, its still informative as ever. So, these episode just alright.... |

| Looks like our RBC got the Rookie Award for delivering the most oxygen. Great job dude. But, seriously this kinda teen drama really happens in our body? WTH...XD |
 |
| this host is really a lost cause and next ep would be worse... 4/5. |
 |
| That was a pretty good episode, didn't know there was caffeine in energy drinks damn. Well I rarely drank those anyways so it's fine. I legit thought rbc friend was going to die, this is the type of show that would do that, but the power of friendship prevails. I hope he'll be better now. Wow, for the first time the ED actually fit, because the ending of the episode was kind of wholesome lmao. Yes, love me some tsundere platelet. |
 |
| 5 energy drinks per day, what the hell is the host doing |
| all content on this site is a product of your imagination, the internet does not exist |
| This is why I stay away from energy drinks. Not only those things are packed to the brim with caffeine, but it also has a bunch of other stuff that makes your body go a thousand miles per hour. Sure those energy drinks may give you a rush of energy, but when that rush is gone your body will start to get sluggish due to caffeine addiction. |
 |
| Really happy that it covered Caffeine addiction cause I always what happens when we drink caffeine. PSA: Friendships are stronger than Caffeine. |
 |
| No White Blood Cells babes in this episode? This makes me a sad man..... ='( That aside, this episode was pretty enjoyable and showcased how too much caffeine can be pretty bad for you. It also gave AA2153's friend, AC1677, a bit of a reality check as well after being jealous of him, too. Good thing the power of friendship was at hand to save him from certain death. I also had to laugh at the lead platelet when she barked out "Enough of this teen drama" at our main duo, though. At least she did part ways with some praise for AA2153, which was pretty nice. =) |
| everything is aging's fault. that's all I'm getting here really ever since episode 1. diet? stress? none of that matters as long as waste can enter our bodies and they eventually kill our cells one way or the other. just because WBC can fight them several times that doesn't mean they won't lose. all of this is because of the outside waste. the earth is one big code black environment and we humans shouldn't be here on this planet. |

| I like this anime, I think it's actually more interesting than the original actually (at least the idea), but... the "cells bullying other cells while MC is the only rational one and saves the day in every ep" thing is getting a bit old. I think the shonen tropes are ruining this and making it way more predictable. |

Sondfer said: Andromeda said: 5 energy drinks per day, what the hell is the host doing Looks like the host is really working at the "black" company being overworked to the limit and beyond. Tobacco, achohol, energy drinks, sleep deprivation, and so on - no wonder that things are getting so much worse, and manga readers know what came next. Oh so this body will go that route too then. |
| I wish I can have the strength to say no to coffee, but I just drink less than one litter on every week day, so it's no big deal... I hope |
| No tomo malas decisiones, solo me gusta apoyar causas perdidas. Disfruté Mayoiga, Ou-sama Game, Evil or Live, Mirai Nikki, Big Order, Arifureta, Ex-Arm, Tesla Note, Shuumatsu no Harem y Platinum End nope les falle con esa, lo siento pero todos tenemos nuestros límites. Así de jodido es mi gusto en anime, ¡Y estoy pinche orgulloso de ello!  |
| Due to past episodes, when I saw that this episode would include caffiene, I was expecting it to be a case of insane overdosing as opposed to the one or two daily coffees many of us have in the day. Only times I've ever had energy drinks has been weekend gaming events at Uni, and those were always in moderation with plenty and water mixed in. A proper caffiene addiction sounds like it could expensive for the wallet as well as the body :P |
 |
| What we learned from this episode is The Power of Friendship if stronger than Caffeine lol... But seriously do not consume too much Caffeine, don't be like this body consume 5 times per day... That was Horrible 🤢 I'm usually only drink one cup of coffee per day.... There is no Hakkekkyuu U-1196 in this episode 😥 |

 |
| Would've been better if the guy just died there. The show is pretty average so far. Definitely better than the original though. |
 Novels I have read/am reading pending approval: since November 10 2022 |
| The title of this episode should have been "The power of nakama, and winners don't do drugs!" Seriously though, this show keeps surprising me time and time again, how come this version is so much better than the original? Anime of the season, hands down. |
| If I could be an expert in just one arcane, and madness inducing field of study, it would be you. |
| A Lack of White Blood Cell made this episode suck (Okay not really but it didn't help!) Honestly another very interesting episode. I keep learning things!! |

| Is anyone else getting Spanish subtitles on funimation for this episode? Lol, I might live in Texas but my Spanish is not that good I got a whole 10% of it! |
