Cells at Work! (Hataraku Saibou) (2018) s02e01 Episode Script
Bump
1
The internal security
here is a total joke!
All right!
I'm lovely today, too! If I may
say so myself, I'm
just too cute for a germ!
And how adorable!
There's no Immune Cell that could possibly
attack such an adorable germ like me!
When I catch him off guard with my
cuteness, I'm going to go, "Blam! Pow!"
It's like I've taken over this body!
Die, you damn germ!
"WHITE BLOOD CELL"
This is the inside of a human body.
Hello, Macrophage!
Oh my!
Good afternoon!
"FRAGILE" "CONDENSED GAS"
I see that you're full
of energy today, too.
Thank you very much!
And I see that you're working hard
as a good senpai!
No, I wouldn't go that far!
No, really, seriously
You're in the way! What are you
doing, wandering around like this?
Are you lost again?
I'm so sorry, Killer T Cell.
We're the invincible T Cells! ♪
Are you okay, Senpai?
Hey, I'm fine!
"ARTERY"
Roughly 37 trillion cells are working
energetically and with
all their might again today.
"EPISODE 1: BUMP"
"Bump."
Th-Th-Th-Thank you for waiting!
"CELL"
I've come to deliver
your nutrients and oxygen!
Hey, I appreciate your hard work.
Thank you very much! Thank you very much!
"STING STING"
S-Sorry about making you come
through such cramped quarters.
Oh no! It's my job!
Y-Your face is all scraped up,
so take care, okay?
All righty.
Hey, look who showed up here
but Red Blood Cell!
Hey! I know you!
You're White Blood Cell's friend!
Hey there!
Listen, I hope you don't mind my
asking, but have you seen 1146?
Now that you mention it, I
haven't seen him in a while.
Are you looking for him?
Yeah.
He's been pretty slammed with work lately,
so I'm worried that he might be
feeling run-down or in a foul mood.
I thought I'd ask him to go
for tea and calm him down!
Is that right? Sounds good to me!
Well, hey, I'm embarrassed
to sound so patronizing, you know!
Don't give it another thought!
Hey, but maybe there's no need
for you to be so worried.
The last time I saw him, he was taking it
"GERM SOUP"
easy, sipping on some
yummy-looking germ soup!
I think he might be better
at switching gears than we think.
You know how grounded
White Blood Cell is!
I'm sure he's taking
care of himself just fine!
4989?
Sorry.
It's just that I had no
idea there were any
Red Blood Cells looking
out for us like that.
I mean, I never even dreamed it!
I was so moved, I just
broke down into tears!
Hey, come on! You're embarrassing me!
Knowing how grounded
White Blood Cell is, I bet
"RELAXING TEA" "THIS TEA IS SO GOOD"
he's sipping tea right
now, looking like this!
This tea is so good!
I think you're right!
You're not getting away!
W-W-W-Wait! Take a good look!
How dare you assault
a lovely germ like me!
This White Blood Cell is bonkers!
His deadly accuracy at
top speed, those devastating
attacks that seem to be
cutting off all worldly desires
He's my enemy, but I applaud him!
This is U-1146 of the White
Blood Cell Neutrophil Division.
The invading Bacteria
have been exterminated.
No matter what kind of germ it is,
it will be obliterated without mercy.
That's our job.
We can't let even a single one
slip through the cracks.
No matter what!
S-So sorry! I guess
I got in your way, didn't I?
Hey! No, not at all!
I should be apologizing for scaring you.
I'll clean this up right away and leave.
Oh no, that's all right!
The thing is, I'm training
to become a strong Platelet right now.
I can't put this down
under any circumstances!
Huh? Training?
Would you mind tossing that
coagulation factor my way, please?
So I can catch it!
Uh, sure. I don't mind at all.
Can you handle it?
Thank you so much!
I'll be fine!
All right.
Here!
"STUMBLE STUMBLE"
"BAM'"
Hey!
Plop!
"PLOP"
Are you okay?
Plop
Looks just like her!
I-I'm all right.
I'm so sorry to worry you.
She's fighting back tears!
I'll pick those up for you now, okay?
Still, this is a White Blood Cell
migration route, you know?
Did you lose your way
during training, maybe?
"BLUSH BLUSH"
Just like her.
I don't usually see you alone like this.
"PLATELETS"
What happened? Did you get into a
fight with that kid you're always with?
Th-That's not it at all!
Leader is such a kind girl!
You see, you see
It's just that I'm so weak.
The other day
when we were practicing primary
blood clotting inside the bone marrow
Are you okay?
Plop!
"PLOP"
Are you all right? Leader? Backward Cap?
So, they call you Backward Cap, huh?
Since we're so tiny, at work, we clump
together to make up
for our lack of height.
And there's nothing more
important than working as one
But since I'm twice as
weak as the next Platelet,
I was always dragging everyone else down.
Even so, everyone still kept
cheering me on, but
So, I come to check on my apprentices,
and what exactly is this I'm seeing?
"SNACK"
Th-That voice!
M-Master!
Who would've thought
that among my apprentices, I'd still find
an underdeveloped useless kid like you?
Out there in the real world,
"I can't do it" just won't cut it!
Make sure you've whipped yourself
into shape by the next hemorrhage!
Okay!
What I want is strength!
That's why I'm carrying twice
the normal load of coagulation factors
to get myself into shape!
I-It's so heavy!
"TREMBLE TREMBLE"
"CLENCH" "TREMBLE TREMBLE"
I see.
I really hope you can become stronger!
But
She yelled at me,
but Master's absolutely right.
I might end up thwarting the others during
a real mission because I'm incompetent.
So, I've made up my mind
not to go back until I've gotten stronger.
Is that right?
Well, but there's no need to panic, right?
Backward Cap, you have the positive
mindset to work hard at it, don't you?
As long as there's one of
you like that, it'll inspire the
others to follow suit, and
then you can all do a great job.
There's no way that you'd be
thwarting them, so why don't
you go on back and see how
training together works out?
You really think so?
I see!
Look, we're close to the epidermis now.
Oh, wow!
This is the main road
along the temporal vein!
Hey! White Blood Cell!
Hey, long time no see!
Hey, Red Blood Cell!
Oh, it's Platelet's friend.
This is Backward Cap.
Hello, Backward Cap!
Hello!
What a coincidence! Just a minute ago,
we were wondering how you were doing
What the cell's going on?
An external injury? Where's the wound?
Every capillary vein
in the area is ruptured!
Red Blood Cell!
Don't worry about me!
White Blood Cell
Take Backward Cap!
Gotcha!
Please give it all you've got!
Will she be all right?
Yeah. No need to worry.
She's sure toughened up!
No. 1146!
So, this is where you've been
all this time, huh?
Hey, No. 4989, are we under attack?
This is an attack, right?
Hold up, No. 1146. Haven't you noticed?
This isn't like any of the other times.
The blood cells should be flying
out of the wound, but look!
It's like we've been thrown into
some kind of zero gravity space!
What the
I see!
That's right!
This means that there's no wound!
And this is the head area!
So, this must be
a bump, then?
Bump.
A lump-like protrusion caused by swelling
and bleeding on the outer skull.
"BUMP"
Stop the internal bleeding
"GRIP"
Looks like it's time for me to step up!
That's what I like to hear!
Give it your all, Backward Cap!
Right!
I'll do my best!
And as for us Neutrophils
No. 4989! You ready?
Yeah! I know what to do!
Internal bleeding is a hemorrhage
occurring under the skin.
Which means that there's no wound that can
serve as a pathway for enemy intruders.
In other words
what we can do as Neutrophils is
nothing.
All right! Let's work hard
at our jobs today, too!
Okay!
Cells at Work!!
Cells at Work!!
All right, everybody, listen up!
This is internal bleeding,
but it's the same job as always.
We're going to assemble in the
ruptured area, form a primary blood clot,
then form a secondary blood
clot by sticking the Red and
White Blood Cells together
with fibrin, to stop the bleeding!
We have a wide area to cover, so it
won't be easy, but let's do our best!
Okay!
There's damage here, too!
Anyone who's free, please come over here!
It's clotted!
We can cast the fibrin now!
Please bring us the coagulation factors!
Okay!
The coagulation factor!
Backward Cap, you have
a really great attitude!
She's right! Good for you, Backward Cap!
It's not about whether
you're strong or not!
Sometimes a good attitude's all you need!
Bad news, everybody! Listen, listen!
We don't have enough coagulation factors!
Don't worry! Backward Cap's on it
Listen, listen! It's not that!
The really bad news
we're talking about is
Look at that!
That's
Sorry!
The damaged area is too big
for us to close up, right?
What should we do?
Looks like we'll have to assemble far and
wide and close the
whole thing off at once.
Everybody, gather round!
We're going to join forces
and form a primary blood clot together!
Come on, you, too, Backward Cap, hurry!
Uh-oh! Primary blood clots are what
Backward Cap has trouble with! Jeez!
Y-You can do it, Backward Cap!
Who's Backward Cap?
Plop!
"PLOP"
I see, so this gives you trouble,
Backward Cap! Wh-What should we do?
Is there anyone who can
take Backward Cap's place?
Hold on a second!
Primary blood clot We all need to unite
and work as one right now, but I
"BONK"
If I'm like this, I'm going to
throw everyone else off, too!
What the cell are you doing?
Lackadaisical! No motivation whatsoever!
What a bunch of slackers!
Asleep at the wheel!
"MEGAKARYOCYTE"
Little squirts!
Megakaryocyte.
The cell that produces Platelets.
The largest of all the
cells in the bone marrow.
Master Megakaryocyte! Master!
So, I'm worried and come to
check on you, and what do I find?
Seriously, you call
yourselves my apprentices?
I know I taught you!
That since there aren't much in the
way of defensive barriers like muscles,
or fat on the skull, the veins are
easily ruptured by external trauma!
That because of all the capillaries,
bleeding there leads to catastrophe!
That it's dangerous when the internal
bleeding can't be stopped! Remember?
W-We're very sorry, Master!
That's not the way to go, Megakaryocyte!
Putting pressure on Backward Cap now
will only backfire in the end!
Ugh, the wind's smothering my voice!
I said, who is this Backward Cap anyway?
Just look at that!
Thanks to that tongue-lashing,
she's curled up into a ball!
I don't get it!
To me, it just seems like she's only
yelling because it makes her feel good.
But could it be
that she has the ability to bring the
Platelets together and resolve this issue?
Does she actually have a plan?
All right.
Now, how can I goad
these useless brats into action?
Okay, I've got it.
"WHOOSH"
Listen up, little ones!
Ready?
Whoever does the best job today
will get this special "You Did a Great
Job as a Platelet / Good Kid" gold medal!
"WOW"
I'm going to try harder!
Get to it!
-A medal! A medal!
A gold medal!
She's bribing them.
Show me what you're made of, little ones.
Let's see what you can do!
Heave-ho! Heave-ho! Heave-ho!
Here are the coagulation factors!
Okay!
"BOOM"
Primary Platelet blood clot!
Ah, impressive clumping.
You're compensating for what you
lack in numbers with your technique.
Not only that, but look
at that total stability.
I don't know if it's your thirst
for a gold medal or just plain guts
Right!
All righty!
Here! The last of the coagulation factors!
-Thanks! Sure!
All right, now we can
"SLIP"
What the
O-Oh no! Our precious coagulation factor!
Come back here!
Backward Cap!
"SNAP"
I did it! I got it!
Everybody! We're going to do
that clumping move now!
But that formation is so hard,
we've never managed to do it even once!
Don't worry!
I'm sure we can make it this time
if we all work together as one!
O-Okay!
Go!
Now, that's an incredible super skill!
Backward Cap! I'm coming!
Don't let go!
Hold onto my hand and
the coagulation factor!
Okay!
It's all good! Don't worry, Leader!
I'm not letting go,
I know for sure that I won't ever let go!
That's the spirit, Backward Cap!
All your training is paying off now!
You've gained a little strength
in those arms, huh?
Good for you!
Excellent! What amazing cohesion!
Look at you, rising to the occasion!
To think that even I'm floored
by your growth as your master!
You little ones are truly something else!
My little ones!
Thanks to your efforts, we
were able to keep today's
hemorrhage from escalating,
and we've stopped the bleeding!
Good job!
I commend you for your hard work!
Yes, Master!
But I can't make up my
mind about something.
Who it is that I should award
the gold medal to, you know?
And why is that?
Because although it's true
that Backward Cap mustered her
courage and came up clutch
for us, still, she was too sluggish
before that, during clotting!
You have to try harder, okay?
Leader, you displayed some
impressive supervision skills,
"HMM"
You all worked very hard,
but it's not like I saw an
ultra-good kid who stood head
and shoulders above the rest.
So, today I have no choice but to
give you all a gold medal!
"CLATTER" "CLANG"
Master!
Yay! Yay!
"YAY"
Backward Cap
You really came through for us today!
It was your efforts that brought
everyone else together as one!
Master!
Since you've always been twice
as weak as the others,
I always worried if you'd make it or not.
But now, you've set my mind at ease.
Backward Cap, as an apprentice,
you're my pride and joy!
Master! Master!
-Hey you! Master! Master!
That's a relief.
I had no clue how that was going to turn
out, but it looks like I worried too much.
Backward Cap, not only do you
have a positive attitude,
but you also have great friends
and a great master.
There was no way that you wouldn't
find a way to overcome that jam!
Always cherish the memory of today,
as well as that gold medal.
Backward Cap
Gold medal! Gold medal!
Gold medal! Gold medal!
Master!
See you, little ones!
Do your best next time, too!
Okay!
-All right! All right! All right!
-Here are more blood cells for the clot!
White Blood Cell! Good job!
Oh, right. So, you're safe
and sound. That's good.
Huh? You have an ever-so-slightly
hurt look on your face. Are you all right?
Sure. Hey, it's nothing.
The mood swings this guy goes through
over the most trivial stuff!
Just because he got a little trampled on.
Trampled on?
Well, I'm sure it wasn't on purpose, so
Who was it that trampled on you?
Well, actually
Memory Cell did mention something.
What did he say?
"NEXT EPISODE PREVIEW"
That the world's going
to end for sure this time.
He has a feeling that it
may or may not happen.
"NEXT EPISODE PREVIEW"
So, which is it?
Next episode of Cells at Work!!,
"Acquired Immunity/Peyer's Patch."
"EPISODE 2:
ACQUIRED IMMUNITY/PEYER'S PATCH"
Work hard, everyday!
The internal security
here is a total joke!
All right!
I'm lovely today, too! If I may
say so myself, I'm
just too cute for a germ!

as a good senpai!
No, I wouldn't go that far!
No, really, seriously
You're in the way! What are you
doing, wandering around like this?
Are you lost again?
I'm so sorry, Killer T Cell.
We're the invincible T Cells! ♪
Are you okay, Senpai?
Hey, I'm fine!

Roughly 37 trillion cells are working
energetically and with

"STING STING"
S-Sorry about making you come
through such cramped quarters.
Oh no! It's my job!
Y-Your face is all scraped up,
so take care, okay?
All righty.
Hey, look who showed up here
but Red Blood Cell!
Hey! I know you!
You're White Blood Cell's friend!
Hey there!
Listen, I hope you don't mind my
asking, but have you seen 1146?
Now that you mention it, I
haven't seen him in a while.

Yeah.
He's been pretty slammed with work lately,

Well, hey, I'm embarrassed

Hey, but maybe there's no need
for you to be so worried.
The last time I saw him, he was taking it
"GERM SOUP"
easy, sipping on some
yummy-looking germ soup!
I think he might be better
at switching gears than we think.
You know how grounded
White Blood Cell is!
I'm sure he's taking

Right!
I'll do my best!
And as for us Neutrophils
No. 4989! You ready?
Yeah! I know what to do!
Internal bleeding is a hemorrhage
occurring under the skin.
Which means that there's no wound that can
serve as a pathway for enemy intruders.
In other words
what we can do as Neutrophils is
nothing.
All right! Let's work hard
at our jobs today, too!
Okay!
Cells at Work!!
Cells at Work!!
All right, everybody, listen up!
This is internal bleeding,
but it's the same job as always.
We're going to assemble in the
ruptured area, form a primary blood clot,
then form a secondary blood
clot by sticking the Red and
White Blood Cells together
with fibrin, to stop the bleeding!
We have a wide area to cover, so it
won't be easy, but let's do our best!
Okay!
There's damage here, too!
Anyone who's free, please come over here!
It's clotted!
We can cast the fibrin now!
Please bring us the coagulation factors!
Okay!
The coagulation factor!
Backward Cap, you have
a really great attitude!
She's right! Good for you, Backward Cap!
It's not about whether
you're strong or not!
Sometimes a good attitude's all you need!
Bad news, everybody! Listen, listen!
We don't have enough coagulation factors!
Don't worry! Backward Cap's on it
Listen, listen! It's not that!
The really bad news
we're talking about is
Look at that!
That's
Sorry!
The damaged area is too big
for us to close up, right?
What should we do?
Looks like we'll have to assemble far and
wide and close the
whole thing off at once.
Everybody, gather round!
We're going to join forces
and form a primary blood clot together!
Come on, you, too, Backward Cap, hurry!
Uh-oh! Primary blood clots are what
Backward Cap has trouble with! Jeez!
Y-You can do it, Backward Cap!
Who's Backward Cap?
Plop!
"PLOP"
I see, so this gives you trouble,
Backward Cap! Wh-What should we do?
Is there anyone who can
take Backward Cap's place?
Hold on a second!
Primary blood clot We all need to unite
and work as one right now, but I
"BONK"
If I'm like this, I'm going to
throw everyone else off, too!
What the cell are you doing?
Lackadaisical! No motivation whatsoever!
What a bunch of slackers!
Asleep at the wheel!
"MEGAKARYOCYTE"
Little squirts!
Megakaryocyte.
The cell that produces Platelets.
The largest of all the
cells in the bone marrow.
Master Megakaryocyte! Master!
So, I'm worried and come to
check on you, and what do I find?
Seriously, you call
yourselves my apprentices?
I know I taught you!
That since there aren't much in the
way of defensive barriers like muscles,
or fat on the skull, the veins are
easily ruptured by external trauma!
That because of all the capillaries,
bleeding there leads to catastrophe!
That it's dangerous when the internal
bleeding can't be stopped! Remember?
W-We're very sorry, Master!
That's not the way to go, Megakaryocyte!
Putting pressure on Backward Cap now
will only backfire in the end!
Ugh, the wind's smothering my voice!
I said, who is this Backward Cap anyway?
Just look at that!
Thanks to that tongue-lashing,
she's curled up into a ball!
I don't get it!
To me, it just seems like she's only
yelling because it makes her feel good.
But could it be
that she has the ability to bring the
Platelets together and resolve this issue?
Does she actually have a plan?
All right.
Now, how can I goad
these useless brats into action?
Okay, I've got it.
"WHOOSH"
Listen up, little ones!
Ready?
Whoever does the best job today
will get this special "You Did a Great
Job as a Platelet / Good Kid" gold medal!
"WOW"
I'm going to try harder!
Get to it!
-A medal! A medal!
A gold medal!
She's bribing them.
Show me what you're made of, little ones.
Let's see what you can do!
Heave-ho! Heave-ho! Heave-ho!
Here are the coagulation factors!
Okay!
"BOOM"
Primary Platelet blood clot!
Ah, impressive clumping.
You're compensating for what you
lack in numbers with your technique.
Not only that, but look
at that total stability.
I don't know if it's your thirst
for a gold medal or just plain guts
Right!
All righty!
Here! The last of the coagulation factors!
-Thanks! Sure!
All right, now we can
"SLIP"
What the
O-Oh no! Our precious coagulation factor!
Come back here!
Backward Cap!
"SNAP"
I did it! I got it!
Everybody! We're going to do
that clumping move now!
But that formation is so hard,
we've never managed to do it even once!
Don't worry!
I'm sure we can make it this time
if we all work together as one!
O-Okay!
Go!
Now, that's an incredible super skill!
Backward Cap! I'm coming!
Don't let go!
Hold onto my hand and
the coagulation factor!
Okay!
It's all good! Don't worry, Leader!
I'm not letting go,
I know for sure that I won't ever let go!
That's the spirit, Backward Cap!
All your training is paying off now!
You've gained a little strength
in those arms, huh?
Good for you!
Excellent! What amazing cohesion!
Look at you, rising to the occasion!
To think that even I'm floored
by your growth as your master!
You little ones are truly something else!
My little ones!
Thanks to your efforts, we
were able to keep today's
hemorrhage from escalating,
and we've stopped the bleeding!
Good job!
I commend you for your hard work!
Yes, Master!
But I can't make up my
mind about something.
Who it is that I should award
the gold medal to, you know?
And why is that?
Because although it's true
that Backward Cap mustered her
courage and came up clutch
for us, still, she was too sluggish
before that, during clotting!
You have to try harder, okay?
Leader, you displayed some
impressive supervision skills,
"HMM"
You all worked very hard,
but it's not like I saw an
ultra-good kid who stood head
and shoulders above the rest.
So, today I have no choice but to
give you all a gold medal!
"CLATTER" "CLANG"
Master!
Yay! Yay!
"YAY"
Backward Cap
You really came through for us today!
It was your efforts that brought
everyone else together as one!
Master!
Since you've always been twice
as weak as the others,
I always worried if you'd make it or not.
But now, you've set my mind at ease.
Backward Cap, as an apprentice,
you're my pride and joy!
Master! Master!
-Hey you! Master! Master!
That's a relief.
I had no clue how that was going to turn
out, but it looks like I worried too much.
Backward Cap, not only do you
have a positive attitude,
but you also have great friends
and a great master.
There was no way that you wouldn't
find a way to overcome that jam!
Always cherish the memory of today,
as well as that gold medal.
Backward Cap
Gold medal! Gold medal!
Gold medal! Gold medal!
Master!
See you, little ones!
Do your best next time, too!
Okay!
-All right! All right! All right!
-Here are more blood cells for the clot!
White Blood Cell! Good job!
Oh, right. So, you're safe
and sound. That's good.
Huh? You have an ever-so-slightly
hurt look on your face. Are you all right?
Sure. Hey, it's nothing.
The mood swings this guy goes through
over the most trivial stuff!
Just because he got a little trampled on.
Trampled on?
Well, I'm sure it wasn't on purpose, so
Who was it that trampled on you?
Well, actually
Memory Cell did mention something.
What did he say?
"NEXT EPISODE PREVIEW"
That the world's going
to end for sure this time.
He has a feeling that it
may or may not happen.
