Cells at Work! Code Black is an anime spin-off of Cells at Work, set inside a body whose owner lives an unhealthy lifestyle marked by drinking, smoking, stress and sleep deprivation. The story follows a rookie Red Blood Cell, designated AA2153, who must learn quickly to deliver oxygen and collect carbon dioxide despite dangerous conditions, and a White Blood Cell, U-1196, who deals with germs, bacteria and viruses. Stress hormones push the workers to hurry, blood vessels are clogged with cholesterol, and the body is prone to ailments such as ulcers and fatty liver. Many cells are lost in the line of duty, and the workers must cooperate to keep the body functioning, without knowing whether their sacrifices will make a lasting difference. The tone is darker and grittier than the parent series, presenting the cells' labor as a workplace under severe strain.
