That's how life is for real workers of all kinds, and that's how it is for red blood cells. You can draw a dozen parallels to treating the red blood cells to honest delivery workers: High chance of injury, no time to take a break, literally being called disposable.

Code Black is without a doubt a hyperbolic satirization of a workplace under capitalism-an economic system that couldn't give two shits working-class people.

He solemnly tells the protagonist, 'I'm retiring today,' with full knowledge of his imminent demise.

One cell represents this to-the-tee-the sebaceous gland, represented by an elderly man, works until the moment he dies. Under capitalism, most people need to work after retirement because you need quite a lot of money to retire 64-62 years old on average since the government won't support you enough financially. It is abundantly clear every working cell gets exploited in some fashion: Overwork, no breaks, no retirement, no days off, discrimination based on age, penalties for taking a brief pause.

We get plenty of intriguing world-building throughout his journeys, but ultimately the lore isn't that deep because it is a vehicle for edutainment. While he travels around the arteries, he meets various people in the same situation. The protagonist is pushed to the edge of insanity, working non-stop as a red blood cell delivering oxygen. Initially, I wondered how this show makes us empathize with these characters if they continually suffer week after week with no reprieve? Empathy. This show is nothing like the original, where everyone is happy because they have a utopian work environment. It is constant bloody thrills and psychological trauma. It felt like I was sitting in a boring biology class. Fight scenes were slow-paced because the action would pause so the narrator could explain the science behind what was going on, cue a slide show of information that I would immediately forget. Most of the time, the information gets naturally woven into the dialogue. They have an intelligence room where they give cells orders, rather than resorting to a narrator, like the original Cells at Work. In Code Black, the nervous system cells figure out what is wrong with the body in real-time. Suppressing his emotions becomes his most helpful tool-the later episodes portray his descent into mental illness believably and in a relatable way. The first piece of advice given to him is, 'If you suppress all of your emotions, you can keep smiling.' The stakes are always high because he always has something to lose his friends, colleagues, and fellow hard workers who he respects.

Cholesterol plaque formed browned piles everywhere, rusted walls, cracked flooring, and everyone is frustrated. Right from the minute the protagonist leaves the heart and enters the arteries, he sees problems with the body. I've only smoked one cigarette in my life, and I still felt guilty and ashamed by watching this. Imagine witnessing dozens of people choking to death because you smoked one cigarette. Although there are dozen of frightening monsters within the body, there's nothing scarier than watching personified cells get tortured. Witnessing coworkers die from exhaustion, being berated by abusive bosses, and mental breakdowns because of burnout. Of suffering and trauma they've endured from maintaining an irresponsible body. Every episode is a PSA: Why smoking is unsafe, unprotected sex, why overconsumption of caffeine weakens your bodily functions, too much alcohol over-saturates your liver, fast food will develop plaque and clog your arteries, causing a heart attack. It rips off the gloves, grabs you by the neck, and yells at you to be better. Unlike the original Cells at Work, Code Black doesn't simply teach you about human biology with kid gloves. Through the overworked cells of a dying body, Cells at Work: Code Black tells to tell a relatable story about workers struggling to survive in a capitalist market.
