Happy New Year everyone! I've been wanting to do this video for months, always wanting to be in my studio with everything looking and sounding right, but figured I couldn't wait any longer :) Thank you for all the support this year. X
One of the things I always liked about this episode is that the transfused blood cells are dressed for cold weather. That says to me that they were from blood that had been kept in cold storage.
Or given it is Japan and the different way of speaking there is a chance the blood is from someone living say in Hokkaido where it is usually a lot colder than Tokyo.
It wasn't in this video, but in the episode, the blood cells mention how they were pulled from their host body and centrifuged (high speed spinning/separation), therefore, they would have been in cold storage ready for transfusion. It's also why we probably don't really get to see the transfused platelets and plasma that Dr. Hope mentions Also, as someone who's read the manga, let me tell you that this isn't the only time you'll be seeing these new blood cells :)
I love the attention to detail in this series. Actual doctor: "Oh look at that text on the backpack of the adorable little platelet, that is-" _flashbacks to medical school lessons on clotting_
Fun fact, that might be lost on most english speakers; the blood cells from the transfusion not only has a slightly different uniform, they're also speaking in a different accent
@@peacefulinvasion684 Nah. It's most likely to make it clear that the blood comes from a different person. It's the easiest way to demonstrate that without outright saying it.
That's amazing! I'd love to donate blood, but I'm chronically anaemic (my doctor said that if we somehow managed to get it under control, then maybe I could, but it's not looking likely sadly).
I'm an universal donor too. But sadly, I don't fit the standar for donating blood T_T beacuse of my heigth and weight doesn't reach the minimum required in my country. But in here you are a donor unless you or your family said the opposite. So when I was 18 I decided to make sure anyone couldn't take away my right to donate and became a listed donor for organs in case of necesary. Also, I've make sure to tell everyone around me that I am a donor, is my right and I want it to be protected and respected. Hopefully someday i will be able to donate blood.
About a year ago, I was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia. Over the next six months, I did five rounds of chemotherapy, each one requiring me to receive several blood and platelet transfusions as my bone marrow rebuilt itself. I've now been cancer-free for almost half a year, and I am eternally grateful to the people who donated the blood and platelets that kept me going through my treatment. To all the blood donors out there, thank you. I kind of wonder how a show like Cells at Work! would depict the kind of leukemia I had.
That story you told was the same for my mum when she gave birth to me. She took a lot of blood transfusions in order to survive and so she always tells me that we owe blood now. She can’t donate her blood due to certain issues, but I can. So I donate fairly often to make up for what was used to save her when I was born. And of course I don’t know the exact amount so I’ll just keep doing it, no reason to just meet the amount and then stop. Anyway good job gettin it done right before season 2 and black are going to air, and they’re going to be airing at the same time. Obviously you won’t be able to keep up with both as you’re busy and such, but I look forward to watching your videos on those too!
I'm also someone who, like your mum, cannot donate my whole blood, so I want to thank you, from the bottom of my _heart,_ (pun intended) for paying your blood forward, and helping to make up for those of us who will never be able to contribute as much as we need to take.
That's great. I don't donate blood but involved in phase 1 clinical trial (healthy volunteers) because you can only choose either one as the trial take amount of blood pretty much the same amount. But rather than one go, they jab us 3 times a day for however long the trial is 😅.
I've got to admit, this was a hard one to watch. My grandmother died this way. She received massive trauma during a bad car accident. The doctors at the hospital did their best, but she was losing blood faster than they could transfuse, and the damage was too bad to fix. My mother had to give the doctors permission to stop giving blood. I think it was probably the hardest thing my mom ever had to do.
One thing I love about the blood transfusion scene is that the new blood cells, on top of having different uniforms, also have a different accent from the native cells. It represents how the body they come from is a different region where these cells grew independently of the ones we've come to know and love in the show, thus they have a different accent. Another thing it could represent is that, in Japan, there's a belief that blood type impacts your personality. Them having different uniforms means they're a different but compatible blood type, so supposedly a different personality?
The most inspiring part about this episode for me is at the end, when that little red blood cell we've been following for the entire series shows uncharacteristic resolve, saying that while there's only so much she can do, as the world itself literally dies around her, she'll continue to do her job until she's no longer able. I've tried to adopt the same ethic. Not just death, she stared the apocalypse in the eye, and she didn't blink.
13:11 & 13:19 He puts on a brave face, but you can see Dr. Hope getting choked up! He cares for these precious red blood cell characters just like we do! I love it so much! ❤
In elementary and middle school, it was a treat to watch “Bill Nye the science guy” and “magic school bus” in science class after a big test or just before a school break. I can definitely see this series being used for the same thing. I know if this series had come out when I took biology classes that I would have been more excited to learn about it.
This man was full of life at the beginning of 2020. He has been working so much overtime hasnt he. I dont know why I realized right now but checking his thumbnails through the months he progressively grows more and more tired.
This... Somehow surprised me in that it makes so much more sense now that I was SO COLD after I had my son. I had a postpartum hemorrhage where I lost enough blood where I was juuuuuuuuuust on the precipice of needing a transfusion but not quite. And I kept needing more and more warm blankets cause I just couldn't get warm
Happy New Year doctor. I was waiting for this. ps. transfused red blood cells are also speaking in different dilect to further emphasize that they are foreign
In fact depending on the dub the dialect changes too. I think the Japanese was a northern japanese dialect and hokaido region. For the american english dub they are from the south
@@dontspikemydrink9382 they do that for like literally any Japanese dialect sadly. It kind of makes sense for Kansai or any southern part of the country but it really doesnt make sense in this context.
I remember watching a video about secondary coagulation on Khan Academy once. The activation pathway was confusing as hell, and I remembered it for like only 5 minutes. Guess it's a good thing I'm not a medical school student...
Finally, 2020 has completed. Fun fact: Around 18:08, the new RBC came from outer world, is speaking north-east accents in Japanese. If UK dubs exists, original cells speaking standard Rondon speakings, and the newcomers may speaking Scottish or Irish.
In the English dub, they all started to speak in Southern accents while Cherry (red blood cell) was talking in her usual neutral American accent. Loved the distinction!
Can't help but notice that he looks quite a bit more tired than in the last episode. Being a doctor in a pandemic must be reallhy exhausting. I really do appreciate that he found the time to complete this reaction series.
I've tried actually watching this anime for myself, but without the running commentary from this channel it just isn't the same. So here's to covering season 2 :-)
Half a year in the making, so glad it's finally out. Love the explanations and how you broke down all the important scenes in this episode. Can't wait for your reaction on Cells at Work Season 2 and Cells at Work Black, thanks for your service Dr. Hope!
OMG! That happenes to me! After I gave birth to my second child I lost a looot of blood. I received 3 blood bags. Sadly I can't donate because I'm underweight but my husband and friends did it for me. Thanks to all the donators out there!!
I mentioned this in the comments of the last video, I cried to these last two episodes. Obviously, this episode is very sad, but the subject matter touched on something personal to me. My grandfather passed away last February from complications brought on by hemorrhagic shock. When I had heard about him being in the hospital, I dropped everything to go see him and was running around the hospital frantically trying to find him. When I found him, he was just lying there, hooked up to all these machines. On my way to the hospital, I received a text from my father saying that the sub-arachnoid was uncontrolled and that an elequis reversal seemed to be effective. Laymen's terms, the hemorrhaging had lessened. While at the hospital, I learned that my grandfather had a no resuscitation order in place that hadn't been honored so that news made his eventual passing a little easier to swallow. He died the day after my visit. I still have some regrets, some things I wish I had done while he was alive to see it, but for the most part, I've come to terms with it. I still get sad when I think about it, and these last two episodes definitely make me think about it.
My mom had hemorrhages during both her deliveries (me and my sister) they saved her life, countless people donating blood saved my moms live. I really want to donate my own, I'm in the process, because while my body is perfectly okay to donate blood, I'm have an awful fear of blood, I get incredibly cold and dizzy and freaked out, I'm working towards it so that one day soon I can achieve it!! It is honestly one of the things I want to do the most, it sucks that my mind doesn't let me
Blood donation saves lives! My aunt had over 40 blood transfusions when my cousin was born. I myself had close to 30 transfusions due to an uncontrollable internal bleed.
Can we just stop for a moment and appreciate how incredible it is our bodies have these complex interconnected reactions and mitigation strategies that just *happen* , without any training or prior experience or even conscious thought. We take it for granted but we're truly remarkable biological machines.
I was just re-watching all of Doctor Hope's "Cells At Work" reactions on Christmas Day, wondering when he would upload the finale before Season 2 starts - and here it is!! Thank you so much :D I hope you have a Happy New Year, cheers from Ecuador!
Well done! Honestly, watching your analysis of this series helped me learn a lot about immunology. And knowing at least something about it helped a lot when Covid struck. I didn't feel quite so ignorant and helpless. You're a great doctor and a superb teacher, and if hospital work ever stops being an option for you I encourage you to strongly consider a classroom.
I really, really hope that this series will be accepted in schools as learning material. Honestly, as student, it was a pain for me to learn, how the body protects itself and I wish I had this anime to learn from 😭😅 It‘s just beautiful and now I can really say, that I can understand better, how our body works... Even so, I am still confusing veines and arteries 🤣
If you mean the human body this takes place in. With the ease with which it catches various diseases and injuries, I assume it’s the average young child.
These videos + Cells at work itself should be shown in schools, both are really educational. Cells at work for including things and these reaction videos for explaining the stuff that's going on.
You hit the nail on the head about Cells at Work being a great ambassador for blood donation. One of our anime conventions has had a blood donation room set up with Cells at Work signs every year since the series came out. Congrats on finishing season 1; it's been lovely to see your enthusiastic response to the franchise. Hope to see more when the new series comes out.
I do not regret the moment I clicked on your first react video to this series. I’m having a blast as a nurse watching another healthcare professional geeking out as hard as I did when I watched it. Take care of yourself. The Ray of Hope has begun to shine and we have a way forward out of the insanity of this pandemic. :)
I'm so pleased you finally got back to this series - yes, we KNOW you've been busy! God bless you and all the health care workers through this crazy time. I finally thought about coming to look for comments on the final episode now, in mid-March!
With my fairly limited public school medical knowledge, I already thought this show did a great job balancing the science with the fantasy in a way that could legit be super educational, if not really simplistic. But then you come on and tell me they're addressing complex scenarios and what not?! MAN I cannot wait for season 2!
Thank you for coming back to watch this episode with us. I know it’s been one HELL of a year for you. We owe you and other healthcare workers our deepest and most sincere gratitude. You are amazing.
It's honestly been so endearing to see how emotionally attached to the anime up got and are Please keep up your great work and thanks so much for all your work this year I'm also so proud to say I donate blood and have done so since I was old enough to do so I hope it's helped save so many lives
I watched your whole S1 review of the show while working on homeworks and projects and it really helped me focus just listening to you geek out and review the show. This is better than any study music I could ask for 💚💚💚
Seeing you get all choked up over this episode was so heart warming. It made me reflect on how you've seen this scenario play out so many times. It makes me think you're a very compassionate person
Thanks for the video! I think during the pandemic Cells at Work, especially these last two episodes, make us *ordinary people* appreciate all the front-line workers out there even more, cause this is basically how they feel I imagine. The world is going through an enormous shock right now, just like the body in the series, and if not for all the front-line workers I can't imagine how bad it would've been for society. Thank you all so much, I wish the world could appreciate you more ❤️ Happy New Year everyone :)
17:26 It seems like, among blood types, O- is one of if not THE most in-demand for this exact reason. Plus, if memory serves, it's not an especially common blood type as a percentage of the population. My sister is O-, and when she was donating her blood she had people calling her and asking for donations A LOT. I'm not sure about myself, but I THINK I'm O+ (which is more common and less in-demand), and I haven't actually given blood myself. I have major respect for anyone who does so, but I have a medical condition which affects my circulation and makes it important to keep my plasma volume up, so I'm a bit wary about doing so.
Omigosh omigosh omigosh i’m so happy to hear you’re gonna do season 2 as well as Cells at Work Black!! This series was what introduced me to your channel and i ended up enjoying your other videos too! Excited to see how you’ll react to Cells at Work Black as it is supposed to be much, much, MUCH darker and more adult-oriented content
Thank you for the reaction, your series made me love the anime and I learnt more than I thought. I started talking about immune cells to friends in conversation and they were surprised I was so good at biology. Haha. Thank you also for your hard work as a doctor for the NHS. I live in the UK as well and I think of all the doctors and nurses every day in these hard times. Stay safe and thank you!
As a lab scientist who does the tests this doctor has mentioned(like CBC and blood grouping plus crossmatches) I found this series absolutely amazing. Going to have to check out the masks, I'm sure my other coworkers would love them too. I love seeing eosinophils in blood films, they're so colorful! XD
Experience and a passionate heart! Can't agree more!! I've given up my way to entering the health care industry mainly because I realized I do not have enough passion toward this occupation. Health care, as my opinion, is a job that you have to be extremely passionate to be able to handle. It's super stressful, even just as a student. I'm more of a language person, so I transferred my way to medical translation and interpretation. I can still put what I've learned in use and hopefully still participate a little bit to the lifesaving 🙂 Time to renew my first aid certificate 💪🏻
I've been looking forward to this episode so much, what a wonderful New Years gift! I'm glad I'm not the only one who had an emotional reaction to the struggles of Red and her apprentice. Can't wait for the new season!
It's been a long journey. Episode 1 is what brought me to your channel. It's been wonderful watching your channel really take off from that point onward!
Watched the series a couple times and ran across your reviews thanks to the wonders of the internet. Great to know how accurate it was and loved your explanations. After bingeing the Cells at Work reviews I'm looking forward to checking out your other videos! Great Job!
OMG!!! Happy new year ❣️❣️❣️ I can't believe you've posted this, I've been re-watching your reactions to the series the whole of December 😁 thank you so much 😍😍😍
Just what we needed. A nice shot of blood after the massively prolonged bleedout that was 2020. Thanks to you and your comrades in arms for all that you've done this year
I love Cells at Work. Also the vision of the cells never actually knowing whats going on "outside" is so spot on and at the same time it impacts them in so many ways.
Finally! Been waiting for this!! I've never clicked on a notification faster in my life! Glad you are safe Dr. Hope! Thank you for all you do during these difficult times. :) Happy New Year to you!!
I'm glad to finally see this and that you're able to take a break from everything for a bit to enjoy this anime. At least, I hope you can still enjoy it despite being incredibly busy. I used to be a blood donor, especially since I'm O-. But one day, I received a letter from the blood bank saying my blood bad a false positive for Chaga's Disease. The letter basically said I couldn't donate anymore except for myself if I needed a transfusion despite the fact that the test was a false positive. It makes no sense to me and made me quite sad because I felt like donating blood was one of the few things I could do to actually help people. Of course now I couldn't donate even if I wanted to because I've had two kids over the course of two years. Wouldn't be eligible until about this time next year.
I remember getting a bit teary eyed at the blood fusion episode and even though I’m not a doctor, I knew exactly what was happening. This is such a great series
The Black spin-off is so good too. It goes to greatly effective lenghts at portraying an unhealthy lifestyle's body, and does so in a way that makes viewers go "wait is this what's happening in my body just for doing this one unhealthy thing? ...I should stop". Even with full awareness of it being just a metaphor, it's just that damn effective at portraying the effects of bad life habits. a true goldmine. Also, fun fact! The blood transfer in this episode actually came from the body featured in Black! You'll notice right away that the uniforms are the same.
@@Dusk_Shade 1-it'd be after the end of Black, when things somewhat change. 2-imagine that your daily routine is fucking hell but you've gotten used to it, and you get relocated to a workplace that actually has it's shit together, wouldn't you be chipper?
@@OpXarxa First, Jesus that was a fast response. Second, you definitely have a point, but the thought would be that the poor guys would still have PTSD and such. Imagine the first time this body has alcohol, and all the transfused cells either break down sobbing or be like "ah shit, here we go again" Various portents of doom, the cells insisting that it's all downhill from there, etc. And getting dumped into a snowdrift seems like it would be pretty traumatizing too, ya feel?
Holy cow, today been so rough! I'm so glad to watch this video before the end of the year. I hope your doing well and I can't wait for season 2 of cell at work!
Been waiting for this! what a way to start 2021 and to think I wouldn't have been here for this. I'm 24 and I actually had a pulmonary haemorrhage in April last year. I have a rare autoimmune disease called Vasculitis of that my immune system inflames my blood vessels on my lungs which there is no cure, only steroids and other treatments to suppressed my immune system but when I went off the steroids the other treatment I was on wasn't enough so a vein ruptured in my lung causing my lungs to fill with blood which cut off my oxygen causing me to have a heart attack. My Dad/Poilce gave me CPR for around 20 minutes in total, I came back from the heart attack but I kept dying and coming back over and over again from choking on the blood until the Paramedics came and shocked me. Definitely was a experience to say the least and I was on life support for three days. Thank you Dr Hope for what you do, and thank you to the rest of the Doctors/Nurses/Police/Paramedics/every other health and care worker do around the world, especially lately!
Yeeeeeee! This made my day! Thank you for reviewing this series, its a great one and the medical commentary you give just adds to it even more. Glad to hear that you want to keep watching and talking about this as they make more, but do take your time. Its been a tough year, everyone deserves breaks. Happy New Year!
Thank you, DOC. Thanks for the work you send other medical professionals do. We're grateful for you all saving our friends, and family, children, siblings, and parents. Do GOOD, and God bless. Keep a stiff upper lip, DOC!

There's an OVA about influenza
love from tokyo!
did you know they have an episode of covid-19 as their latest release?
In time for season 2 and cells at work black which is a more adult themed one edit I commented before I started watching 😐
The translation didn't make it obvious but the red blood cells that were transfused were speaking in a different dialect.
Wait really? I dont recall any of that
@@ducks7015 you didn't recall them speaking in a slightly different Japanese dialect?
In the English dub they all have southern accents, if I remember correctly
@@embrefrosste6044 yeah thats normally how its interpreted in English

Or given it is Japan and the different way of speaking there is a chance the blood is from someone living say in Hokkaido where it is usually a lot colder than Tokyo.

Also, as someone who's read the manga, let me tell you that this isn't the only time you'll be seeing these new blood cells :)

@@luther0013 I read that esthetic is the American way, while aesthetic is the Brittish, so both are correct.
*hugs self*
what about autoimmune diseases
@@Daiacos that's what I was going to say hahahahah
I mean, I have an autoimmune disease, so is it okay for me to hate my body for an aesthetic reason?
Happy New Year doctor. I was waiting for this.
ps. transfused red blood cells are also speaking in different dilect to further emphasize that they are foreign
Oh, that is such a nice touch! Very creative!
In fact depending on the dub the dialect changes too. I think the Japanese was a northern japanese dialect and hokaido region. For the american english dub they are from the south
@@goldcharizard of course they are
@@dontspikemydrink9382 they do that for like literally any Japanese dialect sadly. It kind of makes sense for Kansai or any southern part of the country but it really doesnt make sense in this context.
@@goldcharizard in Italian they also had a North-east accent, a nice touch.
I knew the coagulation cascade once. Then I finished the exam. Gone.
I remember watching a video about secondary coagulation on Khan Academy once. The activation pathway was confusing as hell, and I remembered it for like only 5 minutes.
Guess it's a good thing I'm not a medical school student...
@@BicyclesMayUseFullLane I work in pathology so it helps to understand it. It rings a few bells but nothing like when I was a student
Finally, 2020 has completed.
Fun fact: Around 18:08, the new RBC came from outer world, is speaking north-east accents in Japanese. If UK dubs exists, original cells speaking standard Rondon speakings, and the newcomers may speaking Scottish or Irish.
"O'Negative's me name. Type O'Negative. Right feckin' mess someone made of this place, aye? Let's get to work, boyos!"
In the English dub, they all started to speak in Southern accents while Cherry (red blood cell) was talking in her usual neutral American accent. Loved the distinction!
YOU ABSOLUTE MAD LAD! BEST START TO 2021!
I've donated blood several times. and I feel proud of doing so since I can save lives by doing so.
Can't help but notice that he looks quite a bit more tired than in the last episode. Being a doctor in a pandemic must be reallhy exhausting. I really do appreciate that he found the time to complete this reaction series.
Dr. Hope, sir, I commend you for your continued selflessness during this pandemic. Please stay safe.
Yea and not like the other guy
Been waiting for this but I know you’re busy so I’ve been patient
He’s the Doctor and we’ve been patients
A Turtle has also been a patient
"Dont be a wuss! Live!"
Jotaro to Joseph
Is that a Jojo reference
I've tried actually watching this anime for myself, but without the running commentary from this channel it just isn't the same. So here's to covering season 2 :-)
The human body is hands down the most AMAZING thing on this planet!!!
Half a year in the making, so glad it's finally out. Love the explanations and how you broke down all the important scenes in this episode. Can't wait for your reaction on Cells at Work Season 2 and Cells at Work Black, thanks for your service Dr. Hope!
OMG! That happenes to me! After I gave birth to my second child I lost a looot of blood. I received 3 blood bags.
Sadly I can't donate because I'm underweight but my husband and friends did it for me.
Thanks to all the donators out there!!
I mentioned this in the comments of the last video, I cried to these last two episodes. Obviously, this episode is very sad, but the subject matter touched on something personal to me.
My grandfather passed away last February from complications brought on by hemorrhagic shock.
When I had heard about him being in the hospital, I dropped everything to go see him and was running around the hospital frantically trying to find him. When I found him, he was just lying there, hooked up to all these machines. On my way to the hospital, I received a text from my father saying that the sub-arachnoid was uncontrolled and that an elequis reversal seemed to be effective. Laymen's terms, the hemorrhaging had lessened. While at the hospital, I learned that my grandfather had a no resuscitation order in place that hadn't been honored so that news made his eventual passing a little easier to swallow. He died the day after my visit. I still have some regrets, some things I wish I had done while he was alive to see it, but for the most part, I've come to terms with it. I still get sad when I think about it, and these last two episodes definitely make me think about it.
My mom had hemorrhages during both her deliveries (me and my sister) they saved her life, countless people donating blood saved my moms live. I really want to donate my own, I'm in the process, because while my body is perfectly okay to donate blood, I'm have an awful fear of blood, I get incredibly cold and dizzy and freaked out, I'm working towards it so that one day soon I can achieve it!! It is honestly one of the things I want to do the most, it sucks that my mind doesn't let me
You look really tired, Doc. Thank you for doing this video and uploaded it for us. Take care of your health and stay safe!
Blood donation saves lives!
My aunt had over 40 blood transfusions when my cousin was born. I myself had close to 30 transfusions due to an uncontrollable internal bleed.
When he said studying blood clot is a nightmare, he does not kid. That, and ATP production, has had me on sleepless many nights
Can we just stop for a moment and appreciate how incredible it is our bodies have these complex interconnected reactions and mitigation strategies that just *happen* , without any training or prior experience or even conscious thought.
We take it for granted but we're truly remarkable biological machines.
Glad you finally finished it! CaW was what found your channel for me, but you've been a joy to watch since!
Cheers, appreciate that. Hope you had a super New Year!
I was just re-watching all of Doctor Hope's "Cells At Work" reactions on Christmas Day, wondering when he would upload the finale before Season 2 starts - and here it is!! Thank you so much :D I hope you have a Happy New Year, cheers from Ecuador!
Well done! Honestly, watching your analysis of this series helped me learn a lot about immunology. And knowing at least something about it helped a lot when Covid struck. I didn't feel quite so ignorant and helpless. You're a great doctor and a superb teacher, and if hospital work ever stops being an option for you I encourage you to strongly consider a classroom.
I really, really hope that this series will be accepted in schools as learning material. Honestly, as student, it was a pain for me to learn, how the body protects itself and I wish I had this anime to learn from 😭😅
It‘s just beautiful and now I can really say, that I can understand better, how our body works... Even so, I am still confusing veines and arteries 🤣
This person clearly lives life on the edge. Definitely has an appetite for life with little care for personal regard.
If you mean the human body this takes place in. With the ease with which it catches various diseases and injuries, I assume it’s the average young child.
These videos + Cells at work itself should be shown in schools, both are really educational. Cells at work for including things and these reaction videos for explaining the stuff that's going on.
I heard that Cells at Work manga will end tackling Covid-19.
Yeah. . .I don't think so. There hasn't been a manga update on the main series in years.
Yeah, that was in the official HS twitter in may
You hit the nail on the head about Cells at Work being a great ambassador for blood donation. One of our anime conventions has had a blood donation room set up with Cells at Work signs every year since the series came out. Congrats on finishing season 1; it's been lovely to see your enthusiastic response to the franchise. Hope to see more when the new series comes out.
I do not regret the moment I clicked on your first react video to this series. I’m having a blast as a nurse watching another healthcare professional geeking out as hard as I did when I watched it. Take care of yourself. The Ray of Hope has begun to shine and we have a way forward out of the insanity of this pandemic. :)
I'm so pleased you finally got back to this series - yes, we KNOW you've been busy! God bless you and all the health care workers through this crazy time. I finally thought about coming to look for comments on the final episode now, in mid-March!
It was your Cells At Work reactions that were the 1st videos of yours I saw. So happy you made this to kick off 2021! Happy New Year
With my fairly limited public school medical knowledge, I already thought this show did a great job balancing the science with the fantasy in a way that could legit be super educational, if not really simplistic. But then you come on and tell me they're addressing complex scenarios and what not?! MAN I cannot wait for season 2!
I would just like to say that this anime has legitimately helped me in university. I love it to bits.
Thank you for coming back to watch this episode with us. I know it’s been one HELL of a year for you. We owe you and other healthcare workers our deepest and most sincere gratitude. You are amazing.
new viewer here, I'm so happy that you did all the episodes and not just one. happy holidays and thanks for your hard work doctor!
It's honestly been so endearing to see how emotionally attached to the anime up got and are
Please keep up your great work and thanks so much for all your work this year
I'm also so proud to say I donate blood and have done so since I was old enough to do so
I hope it's helped save so many lives
I watched your whole S1 review of the show while working on homeworks and projects and it really helped me focus just listening to you geek out and review the show. This is better than any study music I could ask for 💚💚💚
Seeing you get all choked up over this episode was so heart warming. It made me reflect on how you've seen this scenario play out so many times. It makes me think you're a very compassionate person
Thanks for the video! I think during the pandemic Cells at Work, especially these last two episodes, make us *ordinary people* appreciate all the front-line workers out there even more, cause this is basically how they feel I imagine. The world is going through an enormous shock right now, just like the body in the series, and if not for all the front-line workers I can't imagine how bad it would've been for society. Thank you all so much, I wish the world could appreciate you more ❤️ Happy New Year everyone :)
Thank you everyone who has donated blood.
I have had five blood,transfusions. My life has been saved five times
Super informative and motivational, just what the doctor ordered to start the year
17:26 It seems like, among blood types, O- is one of if not THE most in-demand for this exact reason. Plus, if memory serves, it's not an especially common blood type as a percentage of the population. My sister is O-, and when she was donating her blood she had people calling her and asking for donations A LOT.
I'm not sure about myself, but I THINK I'm O+ (which is more common and less in-demand), and I haven't actually given blood myself. I have major respect for anyone who does so, but I have a medical condition which affects my circulation and makes it important to keep my plasma volume up, so I'm a bit wary about doing so.
Omigosh omigosh omigosh i’m so happy to hear you’re gonna do season 2 as well as Cells at Work Black!! This series was what introduced me to your channel and i ended up enjoying your other videos too!
Excited to see how you’ll react to Cells at Work Black as it is supposed to be much, much, MUCH darker and more adult-oriented content
The second best thing that happens to me this 2021. This year is starting strong.
Thank you for the reaction, your series made me love the anime and I learnt more than I thought. I started talking about immune cells to friends in conversation and they were surprised I was so good at biology. Haha. Thank you also for your hard work as a doctor for the NHS. I live in the UK as well and I think of all the doctors and nurses every day in these hard times. Stay safe and thank you!
16:51 "ABO Antigen" is somehow censored in YT Auto Subtitle lol. And looks like Doc is ready for Season 2 just in time!
I don't know if it's censored or if the AI just couldn't understand what he said?
The word ABO written in lower case is a pejorative term used to refer to an Australian Aboriginal person, so I think that's why it's censored.
I can think of one other apart from @Green Wren's reason, but I don't think it's a serious enough thing to warrant a censor from Auto Subtitle.
dr hope* uploads the last episode of cells at work
his subscribers: "its been 84 years"
As a lab scientist who does the tests this doctor has mentioned(like CBC and blood grouping plus crossmatches) I found this series absolutely amazing. Going to have to check out the masks, I'm sure my other coworkers would love them too. I love seeing eosinophils in blood films, they're so colorful! XD
thank you for delivering this video to us even though i'm sure this has to be a very busy year for you.
oh my God I have found people who have watched the whole thing. This is new. I love it
Experience and a passionate heart!
Can't agree more!!
I've given up my way to entering the health care industry mainly because I realized I do not have enough passion toward this occupation. Health care, as my opinion, is a job that you have to be extremely passionate to be able to handle. It's super stressful, even just as a student.
I'm more of a language person, so I transferred my way to medical translation and interpretation. I can still put what I've learned in use and hopefully still participate a little bit to the lifesaving 🙂
Time to renew my first aid certificate 💪🏻
I didn't think that watching Cells at Work could get any better but it has with this doctor's commentary. Wow wow wow....I LOVE it!!!
I've been looking forward to this episode so much, what a wonderful New Years gift! I'm glad I'm not the only one who had an emotional reaction to the struggles of Red and her apprentice. Can't wait for the new season!
I actually had thought he made the episode way long ago and it was just removed. So glad he finally reviewed it.
It's been a long journey. Episode 1 is what brought me to your channel. It's been wonderful watching your channel really take off from that point onward!
14:26 "... very medically accurate." Don't worry you can cry, we all did
Ive never clicked on a video so fast im so glad you're finally watching this i love these eps so much
Watched the series a couple times and ran across your reviews thanks to the wonders of the internet. Great to know how accurate it was and loved your explanations. After bingeing the Cells at Work reviews I'm looking forward to checking out your other videos! Great Job!
OMG!!! Happy new year ❣️❣️❣️ I can't believe you've posted this, I've been re-watching your reactions to the series the whole of December 😁 thank you so much 😍😍😍
Perfect timing for the new seasons!
Just what we needed. A nice shot of blood after the massively prolonged bleedout that was 2020. Thanks to you and your comrades in arms for all that you've done this year
DOC, YOU'RE BACK!!!
I love Cells at Work. Also the vision of the cells never actually knowing whats going on "outside" is so spot on and at the same time it impacts them in so many ways.
Finally! Been waiting for this!! I've never clicked on a notification faster in my life! Glad you are safe Dr. Hope! Thank you for all you do during these difficult times. :) Happy New Year to you!!
I'm glad to finally see this and that you're able to take a break from everything for a bit to enjoy this anime. At least, I hope you can still enjoy it despite being incredibly busy.
I used to be a blood donor, especially since I'm O-. But one day, I received a letter from the blood bank saying my blood bad a false positive for Chaga's Disease. The letter basically said I couldn't donate anymore except for myself if I needed a transfusion despite the fact that the test was a false positive. It makes no sense to me and made me quite sad because I felt like donating blood was one of the few things I could do to actually help people.
Of course now I couldn't donate even if I wanted to because I've had two kids over the course of two years. Wouldn't be eligible until about this time next year.
FINALLY HERE! What a good way to start 2021
Thank us? Cmon man you're the one saving lives, thank you
Great timing to finish off reacting to season 1!
Season 2 will start airing in a few weeks ^_^
After 9 long months we have been blessed with the last ep review. Thank you doc
Finally, waited 9 months for this reaction.
I remember getting a bit teary eyed at the blood fusion episode and even though I’m not a doctor, I knew exactly what was happening. This is such a great series
The Black spin-off is so good too.
It goes to greatly effective lenghts at portraying an unhealthy lifestyle's body, and does so in a way that makes viewers go "wait is this what's happening in my body just for doing this one unhealthy thing? ...I should stop".
Even with full awareness of it being just a metaphor, it's just that damn effective at portraying the effects of bad life habits. a true goldmine.
Also, fun fact! The blood transfer in this episode actually came from the body featured in Black! You'll notice right away that the uniforms are the same.
Really? They seem a bit _too_ chipper to have come from either of _those_ bodies...
@@Dusk_Shade 1-it'd be after the end of Black, when things somewhat change.
2-imagine that your daily routine is fucking hell but you've gotten used to it, and you get relocated to a workplace that actually has it's shit together, wouldn't you be chipper?
@@OpXarxa First, Jesus that was a fast response.
Second, you definitely have a point, but the thought would be that the poor guys would still have PTSD and such. Imagine the first time this body has alcohol, and all the transfused cells either break down sobbing or be like "ah shit, here we go again"
Various portents of doom, the cells insisting that it's all downhill from there, etc.
And getting dumped into a snowdrift seems like it would be pretty traumatizing too, ya feel?
@@Dusk_Shade spoiler:
-
-
-
by the end of Black, the body is doing better. still bad because of the problems up to that point, but no new issues.
@@OpXarxa Indeed, I read the manga, but they'd remember wouldn't they? 120 days is still a long time. And uh...
Which end? There are two bodies...
Honestly this channel got me through 2020. This is such a nice way to close out the year and start the new one
Holy cow, today been so rough! I'm so glad to watch this video before the end of the year. I hope your doing well and I can't wait for season 2 of cell at work!
Thanks to this series I cry everytime I get a papercut.
Red blood cell and her padawan... Dr. your Star Wars side is showing! :D
Been waiting for this! what a way to start 2021 and to think I wouldn't have been here for this. I'm 24 and I actually had a pulmonary haemorrhage in April last year. I have a rare autoimmune disease called Vasculitis of that my immune system inflames my blood vessels on my lungs which there is no cure, only steroids and other treatments to suppressed my immune system but when I went off the steroids the other treatment I was on wasn't enough so a vein ruptured in my lung causing my lungs to fill with blood which cut off my oxygen causing me to have a heart attack. My Dad/Poilce gave me CPR for around 20 minutes in total, I came back from the heart attack but I kept dying and coming back over and over again from choking on the blood until the Paramedics came and shocked me. Definitely was a experience to say the least and I was on life support for three days. Thank you Dr Hope for what you do, and thank you to the rest of the Doctors/Nurses/Police/Paramedics/every other health and care worker do around the world, especially lately!
Yeeeeeee! This made my day! Thank you for reviewing this series, its a great one and the medical commentary you give just adds to it even more. Glad to hear that you want to keep watching and talking about this as they make more, but do take your time. Its been a tough year, everyone deserves breaks.
Happy New Year!
Thank you, DOC. Thanks for the work you send other medical professionals do. We're grateful for you all saving our friends, and family, children, siblings, and parents. Do GOOD, and God bless. Keep a stiff upper lip, DOC!
