I've only read the beginning of the manga but excited about this.

There's just something really peculiar and interesting about the premise. Also surprised that David Production is in charge of the production.

Ikemen SPOTTED! MUHAHAHA! Hopefully this shows off some creative ways of displaying human microbiology in anthropomorphic forms.

The manga uses the term “white blood cell” to describe neutrophils, but all of the neutrophils so far depicted have been male. Laughing

Upon glancing at the promotional image, I initially assumed that this was the long-awaited anime adaptation of Where's Wally/Waldo.

Looks like the kind of wacky workplace snoozefest you'd expect from PA Works.

Based on their work on Level E, I'm not that surprised.

I was hoping we'd see cute microbes like in Moyashimon



but this doesn't appear to be that kind of show.

I adore this manga, and could not be more excited! David Productions and the director o JJBA sound like perfect fits for the tone this series has

It kind of is, just less cutesy. It's told from the cells' perspective. The human cells are all anthropomorphized into people, and the bacteria and viruses are monsters.
