[00:02] ---
    If this path is obstructed...
[00:05] ---
    we wouldn't be able to reach the heart,
[00:08] ---
    and we wouldn't be able to deliver
    any oxygen or nutrients, either.
[00:14] ---
    N-No...
[00:18] ---
    To think that the coronary arteries
    could get completely clogged like this...
[00:22] ---
    These symptoms...
[00:24] ---
    This is a heart attack!
[00:27] ---
    At this rate, no oxygen will reach the heart,
    and it will become necrotic!
[00:32] ---
    Just now, a serious incident occurred
    within the coronary arteries.

[00:38] ---
    As of today, this body will meet its demise!
[00:46] ---
    Th-The body's functions...
[00:48] ---
    are coming to a halt!
[00:51] ---
    It's the end of the world!
[00:57] ---
    Work...
[00:58] ---
    Please work, heart!
[01:02] ---
    I...
[01:04] ---
    I still...
[01:06] ---
    s-still...
[02:47] ---
    EPISODE 13:
    CARDIAC ARREST,
    REVIVAL, AND A CHANGE
[02:48] ---
    Let's all work together!
    We're going to clear a path here!
[02:51] ---
    Three, two...
[02:59] ---
    No good! It's not budging an inch!
[03:02] ---
    Dammit!
[03:03] ---
    We've got oxygen, but we can't deliver it
    to the heart? Who knew...
[03:09] ---
    It's over.
[03:12] ---
    The heart's stopped.
[03:15] ---
    Give it up.
[03:16] ---
    Waiting to die is all that's left
    for this body to do.
[03:23] ---
    Wh-What are these jolts?
[03:28] ---
    WELCOME TO THE LUNGS
[03:33] ---
    What the cell is going on?
[03:34] ---
    Hey!
[03:36] ---
    Come and take a look at this!
[03:39] ---
    There's a crack in the rib
    protecting the internal organs?
[03:43] ---
    Oh man, it's all over now for this body.
[03:51] ---
    Wh-What in the world...
[03:59] ---
    What's going on?
[04:01] ---
    S-Senpai!
[04:04] ---
    Look at that!
[04:06] ---
    It's blinking in time with each jolt?
[04:11] ---
    Chest compressions.
[04:13] ---
    Also known as "cardiac massages."
[04:16] ---
    A cardiopulmonary resuscitation procedure.
[04:18] ---
    It is performed in order to keep oxygen
    flowing to the heart when it stops beating.

[04:24] ---
    Because great force is being applied to the chest,
    the ribs can sometimes break.

[04:32] ---
    This body...
[04:34] ---
    is trying to live.
[04:35] ---
    Huh?
[04:36] ---
    I have to go.
[04:39] ---
    Senpai?
[04:40] ---
    Now where are you going?
[04:42] ---
    Once the blood flow is restored...
[04:44] ---
    we're going to deliver oxygen right away.
[04:47] ---
    That's...
[04:48] ---
    our job!
[04:50] ---
    Wh-What are you talking about?
[04:52] ---
    This body is about to die!
[04:55] ---
    Work isn't exactly...
[04:58] ---
    That's right.
[05:00] ---
    This body can just die for all I care.
[05:04] ---
    Finally, we won't have to work anymore.
[05:07] ---
    Isn't that what you're all thinking, too?
[05:10] ---
    Or wait, do you actually want to go on
    working in such an environment?
[05:16] ---
    I'm serious! I'm sick and tired of it all!
[05:20] ---
    Look at you.
[05:22] ---
    Still trying to work at a time like this.
[05:26] ---
    That's how deep this body's got
    its hooks in you? Huh?
[05:32] ---
    We couldn't work if we wanted to
    because it's going to die!
[05:35] ---
    So just sit back and shut up!
[05:38] ---
    That's irrelevant.
[05:40] ---
    What?
[05:42] ---
    We're being forced to work under a Code Black?
[05:45] ---
    We don't have to work anymore
    because it's about to die?
[05:49] ---
    All that's irrelevant!
[05:53] ---
    I...
[05:54] ---
    I work because I want to!
[05:58] ---
    With these hands...
[06:00] ---
    With these feet...
[06:01] ---
    I want to deliver oxygen!
[06:04] ---
    So, please... One more time...
[06:07] ---
    start moving, heart!
[06:10] ---
    Move!
[06:19] ---
    Wh-What's going on?
[06:21] ---
    Did the heart just start moving?
[06:26] ---
    Does this mean
    the pulse has been restored?
[06:32] ---
    No, it's just in a convulsive state!
[06:35] ---
    There's still no normal pulse!
[06:37] ---
    "Convulsive state"?
[06:40] ---
    Ventricular fibrillation.
[06:42] ---
    A condition in which the heart begins
    to palpitate rapidly, or quiver,

[06:45] ---
    cutting off blood supply
    to the entire body.

[06:50] ---
    A type of life-threatening arrhythmia.
[06:54] ---
    Fight.
[06:55] ---
    Huh?
[06:57] ---
    Fight... Fight... Fight!
[07:00] ---
    Fight?
[07:02] ---
    Fight! Fight! Fight!
[07:04] ---
    Fight! You can do it, heart!
[07:07] ---
    Fight! Fight! Fight!
[07:14] ---
    It's useless.
[07:16] ---
    Fight! Fight!
[07:19] ---
    Fight! Fight!
[07:21] ---
    Fight! Fight!
[07:21] ---
    WHITE
    BLOOD CELL
[07:23] ---
    Fight! Fight!
[07:25] ---
    Fight.
[07:27] ---
    Fight.
[07:29] ---
    PLATELETS
[07:29] ---
    You can do it!
[07:31] ---
    Fight.
[07:32] ---
    Fight! Fight! Fight!
[07:35] ---
    Please give it your best shot.
[07:37] ---
    Fight!
[07:38] ---
    Fight, dammit!
[07:41] ---
    Please fight.
[07:47] ---
    Come back to life!
[08:02] ---
    Wh-What's going on?
[08:05] ---
    Now what's happening?
[08:07] ---
    Continuous stimulation is being applied
    to the heart from outside!
[08:17] ---
    The heartbeat...
[08:21] ---
    Error, cleared!
[08:22] ---
    The ventricle has stopped fibrillating!
[08:24] ---
    The cardiorespiratory functions
    have returned to normal!
[08:31] ---
    PLEASE USE
    IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
[08:31] ---
    THE ALARM
    WILL GO OFF
    WHEN OPENED
[08:32] ---
    AED.
[08:34] ---
    Automated External Defibrillator.
[08:37] ---
    A device that helps
    restore the heart rhythm to normal

[08:41] ---
    by delivering electric shocks to a heart
    that's fibrillating due to myocardial infarctions, etc.,

[08:46] ---
    and is no longer able to pump.
[08:50] ---
    What about the coronary artery blood clot?
[08:52] ---
    I-It's no good!
[08:54] ---
    The blood cells' route is still blocked!
[09:00] ---
    Either way, we won't be able
    to ward off cardionecrosis!
[09:04] ---
    Dammit! Dammit!
[09:06] ---
    You think we're going to give up?
[09:08] ---
    It's our job to deliver oxygen
    to the heart up ahead!
[09:16] ---
    What's that sound?
[09:20] ---
    Whoa!
[09:23] ---
    Wh-What the cell's that?
[09:28] ---
    Huh?
[09:29] ---
    It's starting to inflate!
[09:31] ---
    G-Get back! Everyone, evacuate!
[09:53] ---
    What the cell was that?
[09:55] ---
    A new type of germ?
[09:57] ---
    Hey, look!
[10:00] ---
    This is...
[10:01] ---
    The plaque's been pushed aside,
    clearing the way?
[10:05] ---
    All right! Now we can get through!
[10:08] ---
    Oxygen! Deliver the oxygen!
[10:10] ---
    Right!
[10:11] ---
    To the heart! On the double!
[10:14] ---
    Th-The coronary artery's unblocked!
[10:16] ---
    Blood flow has been restored!
[10:18] ---
    Yeah!
[10:21] ---
    Stent treatment.
[10:23] ---
    A procedure in which a catheter is inserted
    into the coronary artery,

[10:27] ---
    where a balloon is inflated to expand
    a wire mesh tube called a "stent,"

[10:30] ---
    to open up clogged arteries.
[10:35] ---
    I-Idiots! It's too early to celebrate!
[10:38] ---
    Huh?
[10:39] ---
    If we don't get oxygen delivered across
    the whole body as soon as possible,
[10:43] ---
    the cells will start
    undergoing necrosis!
[10:48] ---
    Above all, if this brain is left
    with any severe damage,
[10:52] ---
    the consequences will be dire.
[10:58] ---
    Hey there!
[10:59] ---
    We brought you some oxygen!
[11:00] ---
    Y-You guys!
[11:03] ---
    You mean we can pass
    through the coronary artery again?
[11:05] ---
    That's right! For now, let's just
    get this oxygen to the heart!
[11:08] ---
    Right!
[11:09] ---
    Let's get going!
[11:10] ---
    Okay!
[11:12] ---
    Way to go!
[11:13] ---
    It's all up to those Red Blood Cells...
[11:16] ---
    whether or not this body makes it!
[11:23] ---
    The lights are back on!
[11:25] ---
    Senpai...
[11:28] ---
    Come on! The cells inside this body...
[11:31] ---
    are waiting for this oxygen!
[11:34] ---
    Right!
[11:41] ---
    Sorry we're late!
    We've come to deliver your oxygen!
[11:49] ---
    Huh? Gastric Chief Cell?
[11:56] ---
    What took you so long?
[12:00] ---
    Come on, guys! The oxygen's here!
[12:02] ---
    Take your positions!
[12:04] ---
    We've got tons of work backed up!
    Don't stop! Just keep going!
[12:08] ---
    Right!
[12:09] ---
    STOMACH
[12:11] ---
    For heaven's sake...
[12:13] ---
    I knew you'd come, AA2153.
[12:18] ---
    Hey! You're keeping the other cells
    waiting, right? Get going!
[12:23] ---
    Right!
[12:24] ---
    Go on, take it!
[12:27] ---
    Right!
[12:35] ---
    Sorry to keep you waiting
    for your oxygen!
[12:38] ---
    There you are.
[12:51] ---
    You really saved the day.
[12:52] ---
    Thanks to you guys, it looks like
    the brain will be left with almost no damage.
[12:59] ---
    Thank goodness.
[13:00] ---
    Please accept my gratitude
    on behalf of everyone.
[13:03] ---
    Thank you for all your hard work.
[13:04] ---
    No, we should be thanking you
    for all that you do.
[13:13] ---
    Is everyone all right?
    We've brought you some oxygen!
[13:18] ---
    Everyone, there's no time
    for all this weeping!
[13:21] ---
    We need to get ready to open!
[13:23] ---
    Right!
[13:25] ---
    Don't worry about us.
[13:27] ---
    Please deliver that oxygen
    to the more crucial organs.
[13:31] ---
    He's right. Even if some hair falls out,
    it wouldn't be life-threatening.
[13:36] ---
    What are you talking about?
[13:37] ---
    We're going to make sure
    that every cell in this body gets oxygen!
[13:41] ---
    Because that's our job!
[13:47] ---
    Much obliged.
[13:50] ---
    We've come to deliver your oxygen!
[13:55] ---
    Yay! Thank goodness!
[13:58] ---
    Well, this is unusual. I thought
    the liver was known as the "silent organ."
[14:02] ---
    TALKING IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN
[14:03] ---
    It's all good.
[14:05] ---
    When are we ever going to be happy if not now?
[14:12] ---
    So sorry I kept you waiting!
[14:14] ---
    I've brought you your oxygen!
[14:18] ---
    Y-You...
[14:20] ---
    I'm so glad you're safe.
[14:22] ---
    If you could stamp here, please.
[14:27] ---
    Thanks! Thank you!
[14:30] ---
    CELL
[14:31] ---
    After all the times
    I lashed out at you until now...
[14:37] ---
    Even so...
[14:39] ---
    instead of abandoning me,
    you're still bringing me oxygen.
[14:44] ---
    Because that's...
[14:46] ---
    That's our job.
[14:49] ---
    Please use this oxygen...
[14:51] ---
    to work hard again!
[14:58] ---
    The cells...
[15:00] ---
    ...are regaining their vigor!
[15:03] ---
    Okay, we're going to carry out
    our own tasks, too!
[15:05] ---
    We're going to head to the site of infraction
    and help out with the aftermath!
[15:08] ---
    - Roger that!
    - Roger that!
[15:18] ---
    The light...
[15:20] ---
    is spreading...
[15:24] ---
    One simple job.
    Delivering oxygen every day.

[15:29] ---
    All the while getting yelled at
    by our senpais and other cells.

[15:33] ---
    If you're a Red Blood Cell,
[15:36] ---
    then deliver, deliver, deliver oxygen until you drop!
[15:41] ---
    No matter how hard we work...
[15:45] ---
    our work environment
    just keeps getting worse.

[15:48] ---
    I can't even count how many times
    my life was in danger.

[15:59] ---
    No way!
[16:02] ---
    Everybody, run! Please run!
[16:08] ---
    There were times
    when I lost sight of who I was.

[16:12] ---
    I've got to work hard.
[16:15] ---
    And it was driven home to me over and over
    just how powerless I was.

[16:20] ---
    The hair is falling out!
[16:32] ---
    ENUCLEATION CEREMONY
[16:34] ---
    There were times
    when I even bailed on my own job.

[16:39] ---
    I...
[16:41] ---
    don't want to work anymore.
[16:45] ---
    So many times...
    Over and over again, I questioned this job.

[16:50] ---
    But...
[16:52] ---
    this is our job.
[16:54] ---
    Hey, what do you think you're doing?
[16:55] ---
    It's something that this body can't do without.
[16:55] ---
    Hurry up!
[16:58] ---
    I can raise my head high
    and take pride in it now!

[17:03] ---
    In this job!
[17:27] ---
    Everybody, this way!
[17:29] ---
    Watch your step, okay?
[17:30] ---
    Okay!
[17:34] ---
    Hello!
[17:35] ---
    Hello!
[17:37] ---
    Everyone's getting a lot done, huh?
[17:40] ---
    There haven't been
    any carbon monoxide leaks lately...
[17:44] ---
    and there's a lot less plaque
    in the blood vessels...
[17:47] ---
    so it's easier to transport oxygen now.
[17:49] ---
    True.
[17:51] ---
    The only unfortunate thing is that
    since there's no more alcohol raining down,
[17:54] ---
    we don't have as many chances
    to head to the liver to get detoxed, huh?
[18:00] ---
    It would be great if this could last.
[18:07] ---
    Yes.
[18:11] ---
    All right, I'm leaving that work to you, then!
[18:14] ---
    Okay!
[18:18] ---
    Whoa!
[18:21] ---
    Wh-White Blood Cell!
[18:26] ---
    It looks like you were battling
    a pretty huge germ there.
[18:29] ---
    No worries.
    That was just a generic resident flora.
[18:35] ---
    It's changed.
[18:37] ---
    Yes. Since that day, both blood flow
    and nutritional status have improved,
[18:42] ---
    stress has been reduced, and it's a much
    better environment for everyone to work in now.
[18:48] ---
    Deliver oxygen
    and retrieve carbon dioxide.
[18:53] ---
    Nothing's changed about the tasks
    that I have to carry out.
[18:55] ---
    But...
[18:57] ---
    In an environment like this,
    I can work even harder than before!
[19:04] ---
    You might be the one
    who's changed most of all, huh?
[19:08] ---
    Wha...
[19:09] ---
    You've sure grown up a lot.
[19:11] ---
    N-No way. I still have
    a long way to go.
[19:14] ---
    The way I see it,
    you're a full-fledged cell now.
[19:16] ---
    H-Hey, you're embarrassing me.
[19:19] ---
    But...
[19:22] ---
    I'm so thrilled to be acknowledged by you,
    the one I've always looked up to!
[19:32] ---
    "Looked up to"? That's just...
[19:36] ---
    I mean, you're a Red Blood Cell
    and I'm a White Blood Cell, so...
[19:41] ---
    I-I'm so sorry! Maybe "looked up to"
    isn't the right phrase—
[19:44] ---
    Hey, Senpai!
[19:47] ---
    Where should I transport this package?
[19:50] ---
    Didn't I tell you earlier?
[19:53] ---
    Go with him.
[19:55] ---
    Oh, right.
[19:58] ---
    Hey, Senpai, what were you doing
    to make you blush like that?
[20:02] ---
    Oh, uh, hey, this is just...
[20:06] ---
    This is the inside of a human body.
[20:10] ---
    Every day, we receive oxygen in the lungs...
[20:12] ---
    and deliver it to the entire body.
[20:14] ---
    That's all there is to it. But...
[20:18] ---
    That's our job as Red Blood Cells.
[20:19] ---
    RECEIVED
[20:22] ---
    One by one, the jobs we cells do
    may be insignificant, but...

[20:28] ---
    with all the efforts of us cells at work,
[20:32] ---
    this body is able to live on!
[22:11] ---
    The vascular wall?
[22:12] ---
    You Red Blood Cells, stay back!
[22:14] ---
    Okay!
[22:16] ---
    Something's coming?
[22:22] ---
    It's sucking us in?
[22:25] ---
    White Blood Cell!
[22:26] ---
    Let me go or you'll get dragged into this, too!
[22:29] ---
    I'm not letting go!
[22:32] ---
    Red Blood Cell!
[22:40] ---
    Senpai! Senpai!
[22:46] ---
    Senpai! Thank goodness!
    I was afraid you were never going to wake up!
[22:52] ---
    Where the cell are we?
[22:54] ---
    The subclavian vein, it says.
[22:57] ---
    SUBCLAVIAN VEIN
[22:58] ---
    The subclavian vein?
[23:00] ---
    When we passed through it before,
    it was all cleaned up,
[23:05] ---
    but this blood vessel is all bumpy.
    It's just like it was before.
[23:09] ---
    No, it's even more
    of a Code Black than before!
[23:19] ---
    Don't tell me this is a different body!
[23:25] ---
    Our Code Black jobs...
[23:29] ---
    aren't over!
