アニメ化してほしい漫画No.１

No.1 manga I want you to animate

This review contains spoilers. 個人的アニメ化してほしい漫画No.1です。『はたらく細胞』のスピンオフ作品ですが、主人公の赤芽球たちは働きません。あれこれ言い訳して脱核を逃れ続け、なんだかんだいって働きません。そんな個性豊かなニートたちの日常漫画です。本家、BLACK、細菌シリーズと実学的な知識は同じくらいあると感じます。一つ一つの解説は濃いので満足度は高いです。赤芽球やマクロファージ赤血球の血液循環については本家よりも詳しく、わかりやすい図解があります。そして不足分の知識を補うかのように、多様な豆知識を得ることができます。ドルオタのミツバ(328)ちゃんに合わせてドルオタ用語が解説されています。白血球たちと会合する回ではヨガのポーズと名前が覚えられます。おまけページにはチェスの駒の特徴講座が載っています。占い好きの白血球(４さん)が算命学の天中殺について説明するシーンもあります。もはやどのジャンルに属する漫画かひと言では言えません。しかしいうなれば、笑いもシリアスも恐怖も涙もありの最高に楽しい漫画です。一話一話がテンポ良くて面白く、どのキャラクターも好きになると思います。アニメになってキャラが動いたら一層魅力が増すと強く思います。ショートアニメ作ってほしい!ちなみに、巻末には『はたらかない細胞』の主人公らがアニメ『はたらく細胞』の制作現場に潜入したレポ漫画があります。企画が進んでいく様子がかなり詳細に描かれているので、アニメを観た人は是非読んでほしい。総作画監督や作曲担当の方のお話もあるので、観ていない人でも勉強になります。

This review contains spoilers. This is the number one manga I want to personally animate. It's a spin-off of “Cells at Work,” but the main characters, erythroblasts, don't work. They continue to evade denuclearization by making excuses, and somehow they don't work at all. It's a comic about the everyday lives of NEET people with such rich personalities. I feel that there is about the same level of practical knowledge as the original, BLACK, and bacteria series. Each explanation is intense, so the level of satisfaction is high. The blood circulation of erythroblasts and macrophage red blood cells is more detailed than the original, and there are easy-to-understand illustrations. Then, you can get a variety of trivia, as if to make up for the missing knowledge. Dorota terms are explained according to Mitsuba (328) from Dorota. You can memorize yoga poses and names in sessions where you meet white blood cells. There is a course on the characteristics of chess pieces on the bonus page. There is also a scene where white blood cells (4), who love fortune telling, explains Tenchukuri in fortune-telling. I can't say in a nutshell what genre the comic belongs to anymore. But in other words, it's a super fun comic with laughter, seriousness, fear, and tears. Each episode has a good tempo and is interesting, and I think you'll love every character. I strongly think that if it becomes an anime and the characters move, the appeal will increase even more. I want them to make a short anime! Incidentally, at the end of the book, there is a repo comic where the main characters of “Cells That Don't Work” sneak into the production site of the anime “Cells at Work.” It depicts how the project is progressing in quite a bit of detail, so if you've watched the anime, be sure to read it. There are also stories from the chief animation director and the person in charge of composing music, so even those who haven't watched it can learn.

細胞シリーズ、好き。

I like the Cell series.

働かない細胞。また違った角度から人体を見ることができるので、細胞シリーズが好きならおすすめ。

cells that don't work. Also, you can see the human body from a different angle, so I recommend it if you like the Cell Series.

幼稚園の先生

kindergarten teacher

マクロファージさんが、もう幼稚園の先生って感じです。働きたく無い、大人になりたく無い、ずっとやりたい事をやっていたい。外の社会が怖いなど、わがままな可愛い細胞たち。はたらく細胞は、一生懸命働いてる細胞のお話ですが、裏ではこんな細胞くんたちもいるんだなぁ〜。人間の一部なんだから、人間らしさがあって面白いと思いました。

I feel like Macrophage is already a kindergarten teacher. I don't want to work, I don't want to be an adult, I want to do what I've always wanted to do. Cute cells that are selfish, such as being afraid of the outside world. Cells at Work is a story about cells that work hard, but behind the scenes, there are also cell-kun like this. Since it's part of a human being, I thought it was interesting because it had a human personality.

タメになります。

It's going to be useless.

はたらく細胞シリーズは、どんな細胞の話でも興味がわきます。大人になって、いろいろと故障が出てきて（苦笑）だからこそこのシリーズを読んであぁ、なるほど、とか思ってしまいます。まぁ、働かないっていうでものんびり―してるって感じで確かにニート。だけどみんながフル稼働する時って体が壊れた時なんでは？とか思い出してるので、働かない細胞があるのは健康ってことなんじゃないの？とか勝手に思ってます。

The Cells at Work series is interesting no matter what kind of cell you talk about. When I became an adult, various breakdowns occurred (wry laugh), that's why I read this series and thought, oh, I see. Well, it certainly feels like they're relaxing even when they don't work, which is definitely NEET. But isn't it when everyone runs at full capacity when their bodies break down? I'm reminded of something like that, so doesn't having cells that don't work mean it's healthy? I'm thinking something like that without permission.

電子版で

In electronic version

これは知らなかったです。マクロファージさんこんなこともしてくれてるんですね。人体は本当によくできてます

I didn't know this. Macrophages do this too, don't they? The human body is really well-made

マクロファージさん推しなら

If you recommend Macrophage

はたらく細胞のスピンオフで、働かない者の言い訳と突っ込みという視点からのギャグと解説しています。マクロファージさん達の出番が多く、マクロファージさん推しの人なら買って損はないです。

It's a spin-off of Cells at Work, and it's explained as a gag from the viewpoint of excuses and rushing in for people who don't work. Macrophages come into play a lot, so if you recommend Macrophages, there's no loss in buying one.

今後がどうなるか楽しみ

I'm looking forward to seeing what the future holds

無事に脱核できるのかどうなるのかって結論がどうなるのか読めないので少しじれったいですが、キャラが魅力的なのでついつい買って読んでしまいます?

I'm a little confused because I can't read the conclusion about how it will be possible to successfully denuclearize, but since the characters are attractive, I just buy them and read them?
