There’s an uncensored version of this drawing for patreon supporters. Cells at work is one of the most popular animes this season; a serie that explains the human body using humanoid forms for the cells, platelets, germs, etc, in the same way that “Once upon a time” did. I knew i wanted to lewd the Staphylococcus the oment she appeared XD.
Hay una versión sin censurar de este dibujo en mi patreon. Cells at work es uno de los animes más populares esta temporada; una serie que explica el cuerpo humano usando formas humanoides para las celulas, plaquetas, germenes, etc, de la misma manera que “Erase una vez el cuerpo humano” hizo hace tiempo. En cuanto vi a la Estafilococo supe que debía dibujarla.

Bah, not even close to the fantastic education and entertainment of Once Upon a Time… Life. In fact, that show is one of the reasons I became a Biomedic today. But I’ll admit one thing to the new anime: the design of the white blood cell is cool.
The waifu potential of this one is much higher xD
Exactly.
It’s just another anime, with all the clichés and tropes. It’s simply settled in the human body, but that’s it. It looks like instead of teaching in a fun way, like Once Upon a Time did, it’ll resort to all the common topics of every other anime and whatsoever
Um, just so you know, Once upon a time is also an anime XD
They have different aproachs, but Cells at work is also focused on educational content. It simply have more emphasis on fighting and characters, and i don’t consider the waifu element a negative. If anything all the fuss about the platelets or the shipping of the white and red cell will make the show more popular and spread the educational content.
Nope, it’s french. It’s western animation. It was produced with a little help of other countries, Japan among those countries, but that’s it.
What I fear is that the educational content gets lost, or worse, ends with the people watching the show misinformed, among all the anime clichés.
I see you’re not very fond of anime
On the contrary: I just love it, is one of my favourite forms of entertainment (for example, I never miss the weekly update of One Piece). What I don’t like are all the tropes that have become so widespread and common in the animes.
Despite what TVtropes say, tropes are not a negative. They’re just a narrative element you can use well or bad. If you use them well they help the narrative a lot; if you use them badly they’ll be predictable and boring.
Anime is not particularly more abusive on tropes than other media. In fact i would say western media abuses them a lot more and in the bad way. Anime has so many different genres and types of anime; some of them like the One piece types will be super cliche and use tropes the bad way, but others will play them very well, others will not use almost any, others deconstruct them, and others even play against them. Heavens feel is a good example of that one.
Damn, shots have been fired. XD
One Piece doesn’t use tropes bad way, in fact, it’s one of the best shows because the characters are all interesting, structured, the narrative always keeps you wondering what’s going to happen next, there is always a new resource or something to surprise you, or even to make an excellent comeback, etc.
What I hate is “Oh, we need to attract public to our show. I got the formula! Cute anime gals everywhere for everything!!” Yeah, because the public is not saturated of those cliches…
I don’t see the cute girls as a negative either. Which should be more or less obvious considering i’m a hentai artist XD
Cute girls are just cute girls; you can have a completelly adult and amazing plot and characters while they’re waifus, or you can do it badly and just relly on repetitive situations.
The best example for this is the comparison between Kancolle and Arpeggio of blue steel. Both come from the same basis of turning japanese ww2 battleship into girls, but totally different aproachs. Kancolle just throws at you a ton of moe girls with little difference between them, and rellies on stacking every stereotypical situation with practically no story. Arpeggio is an actual serious story with a lot of setting, well developed characters and amazing battles, and having waifus doesn’t undermine it in the slightest, on the contrary, it adds to it.
Cells at work is a new show, and i don’t know how much trusthworty the data in it is, but it has managed to become wildly popular in a shor amount of time, which is quite a feat for an educational series.
The webpage doesn’t seem to let me reply to your last comment kukuruyo, so I’ll post my reply here.
Yes, the reason why I fear the excessive use of cute girls is that you can do it bad due to relying only on that and on cliches that are pure dead horse tropes.
I don’t know much about the show since it’s new, but I fear that the series ends up being popular just due to being an anime instead of for the educational content, like Once Upong a Time.
The website only allows a maximum number of replies to a thread and i cannot extend it, so if convs get too long this happens
I see this “Once upon a time” thing mentioned a lot in this context. I’ve never heard of it before. And unfortunately, with a name like that Google will NOT help you.
The complete name is “Once Upon a Time… Life”. Or, in the original french “Il était une fois… la Vie”. An animated series which teaches about the human body for children. But it can also teach adults. And believe me, it’s REALLY good. I’m sure you’ll be able to find the videos somewhere if you search a little bit. I highly recommend it even if you’re not a child.
Yup, under that title it came right up.
I bet some readers want to put their staph in her lococcus….
