Cells At Work! 1 cover

An adventure set inside a human body, Cells at Work! is a fun, fast-paced manga that's even a little bit educational (kind of).

The average human body contains about 60 trillion cells, and each of them has work to do! But when you get injured, viruses or bacteria invade, or when an allergic reaction flares up, everyone from the silent but deadly white blood cells to the brainy neurons has to work together to get through the crisis! Strep throat! Hay fever! Influenza! The world is a dangerous place for a red blood cell just trying to get her deliveries finished.

"Sheer ridiculousness... I had no idea what this manga was going to be like when I heard it was licensed, but now I’m totally sold. Give me more." -Manga Bookshelf

"An awful lot of fun as it makes science into an action manga... Far more entertaining than it ought to be." -Anime News Network

"Fantastically odd, ridiculous and over-the-top... a great deal of fun." -Experiments in Manga
