    Inside the human body,
[00:11] ---
    roughly 37.2 trillion cells
    work energetically,

[00:13] ---

    PLATELETS
[00:59] ---
    This is the inside of a human body.
[01:05] ---
    This reservoir's empty, too, huh?
[01:13] ---
    Here, too? Dammit!
[01:17] ---
    Except for authorized personnel
    KEEP OUT
[01:17] ---
    RESERVOIR #48
[01:25] ---
    There's not much fluid left!
[01:28] ---
    SWEAT
[01:28] ---
    Isn't there...
[01:30] ---
    Isn't there anything we can do...
[01:33] ---
    to save this world
    from further global warming?

    EPISODE 11:
    HEAT STROKE
[03:11] ---
    "Heat Stroke"!
[03:14] ---
    SWEAT GLANDS
[03:17] ---
    S-Senpai!
[03:21] ---
    Is this really
    what the epidermis area looks like?
SIGN    RED BLOOD CELLS:
    They carry oxygen
    and carbon dioxide
    using blood circulation.
[03:25] ---
    It's nothing like the pamphlet.
[03:27] ---
    It's dried up because of this heat.
[03:30] ---
    There used to be waterways
    and stuff before.
[03:33] ---
    That's why we're walking
    through the capillaries to release heat.
SIGN    THERMOLYSIS:
    Dissipating heat by sending
    large amounts of blood to the skin.
    One of the body's ways
    of regulating body temperature.

[03:43] ---
    One of the body's ways
    of regulating body temperature.

[03:47] ---
    It's so hot!
[03:49] ---
    Don't worry! Once hidrosis starts,
    it gets really cool!
[03:52] ---
    See, the sweat glands are about to—
[03:56] ---
    Excuse me!
[04:01] ---
    Damn you, you're such a pain in the neck!
[04:12] ---
    This is U-1146.
SIGN    WHITE BLOOD CELLS
    (NEUTROPHILS):
    Their main task is to
    eliminate foreign
    substances from outside,
    such as bacteria
    and viruses.
[04:14] ---
    I'm done exterminating
    the last of the germs.
[04:16] ---
    Copy that!
[04:17] ---
    Whoa! It's a White Blood Cell.
[04:19] ---
    Running around in this scorching heat...
    He sure has energy!
[04:25] ---
    Th-Thank you for your hard work,
    White Blood Cell!
SIGN    PHAGOCYTOSIS:
    When Phagocytes such as Monocytes,
    Macrophages and Neutrophils absorb
    bacteria and other foreign substances,
    and break them down.
[04:32] ---
    Wait! He's dissolving it!
[04:34] ---
    Hey... Yo, Red Blood Cell...
[04:41] ---
    Is something wrong?
[04:43] ---
    No, it's nothing.
[04:50] ---
    That outfit of yours
    sure looks hot, White Blood Cell!
[04:54] ---
    Can't do my job as a first responder
    if I dress down.
SIGN    SWEAT GLANDS AND SWEAT:
    Sweat-secreting glands present in the skin.
     There are two types, apocrine glands and eccrine glands.
    Heat is removed by evaporation
    when you sweat (heat of evaporation).
    They play a crucial role in adjusting body heat.

[05:16] ---
    So these are the sweat glands!
[05:19] ---
    So hot!

    So hot!
[05:23] ---
    So hot!
[05:25] ---
    BUCKWHEAT TEA
[05:27] ---
    Hey, they said hidrosis is about to start!
[05:30] ---
    Thank goodness! Now it'll get cooler!
[05:32] ---
    Actually, something strange is going on.
[05:34] ---
    Normally, sweat atomizes,
[05:36] ---
    and the heat of evaporation
    cools down the epidermis, but...
[05:40] ---
    But it's still in fluid form.
[05:49] ---
    Hey, what's the deal?
[05:51] ---
    Give us a break, will you? It's so hot!
[05:54] ---
    It's no good!
[05:55] ---
    Hidrosis was successfully initiated,
    but didn't lead to epidermal cooling!
[05:59] ---
    The sweat's not atomizing? Meaning
    the temperature outside the body's too high?
[06:07] ---
    N-No good!
[06:09] ---
    The body temperature's spiking!
[06:15] ---
    This heat is unbearable!
[06:17] ---
    What the heck is going on?
[06:19] ---
    You said it was to promote hidrosis
    to make it cooler!
[06:21] ---
    That's why we've been walking
    in this sweltering heat!
[06:24] ---
    - That's right, that's right!
    - We wanna talk to whoever's in charge!
[06:26] ---
    It's hot, dammit!
[06:27] ---
    For now, we need to release
    the heat from the epidermis!
[06:31] ---
    Wh-What's this?
[06:34] ---
    You guys, please try to keep walking
    to release the heat!
[06:37] ---
    Let's do all we can
    to regulate the body temp!
[06:40] ---
    That's about all that we can do
    as blood cells, huh?
[06:45] ---
    White Blood Cell, what's going on?
[06:47] ---
    Increased vascular flow.
[06:49] ---
    At a glance,
[06:50] ---
    it just seems like part
    of the thermoregulation system!
[06:53] ---
    Abnormal increased vascular flow!
[06:56] ---
    Abortive attempt to cool
    the epidermis with sweat!
[06:58] ---
    And a soaring temperature!
[07:04] ---
    This must be...
[07:05] ---
    No way!
[07:07] ---
    What?
[07:08] ---
    No way, there's light!
SIGN    VERTIGO:
    You feel dizzy, or your
    surroundings start to look fuzzy.
    Such symptoms appear
    when your sense of equilibrium
    has been compromised.
[07:11] ---
    Vertigo.

[07:23] ---
    Wh-What the...
    It's totally dark in here!
[07:26] ---
    The world's ending!
[07:28] ---
    What is this? What's going on?
[07:33] ---
    The ground is tilting!
[07:34] ---
    Not good! Hang onto something!
SIGN    DIZZINESS:
    The blood drains from your head,
    and everything looks dark, or else white.
    You also experience vertigo.
    You do remain conscious.
[07:37] ---

[07:44] ---
    You also experience vertigo.
[07:46] ---
    You do remain conscious.
SIGN    FAINTING:
    When the blood replenish to your brain
    either temporarily decreases,
    or is interrupted. This also involves
    losing consciousness for anywhere
    from several seconds to several minutes.
[07:54] ---
    Fainting.
[07:55] ---

    anywhere from several seconds to several minutes.

[08:04] ---
    B-Bad news!
[08:06] ---
    It's heat stroke!
[08:07] ---
    Heat stroke.
SIGN    HEAT STROKE:

    The generic term for ill health
[08:12] ---
    caused when thermoregulation
    is disrupted,

[08:17] ---
    or by an imbalance of fluids and salt.
[08:19] ---
    There are three degrees of severity
    from 1 to 3.

SIGN    Type 1 heat stroke is the initial symptom,
    causing vertigo, dizziness, tingly lips
    and fainting. In the past, it was known
    as "heat syncope" or "heat cramps."
    The blood vessels of the skin expand
    due to heat and high temperature,
    and when blood pressure drops,
    the flow of blood to the brain decreases,
    leading to heat cramps.

[08:46] ---
    Ouch, ouch...
[08:47] ---
    Ouch!
[08:51] ---
    Weak! Seriously weak!
[08:54] ---
    To fall to pieces
    over a little fever like this...
[08:59] ---
    It's wasted on you guys!
[09:01] ---
    I'll gladly take this world off your hands!
SIGN    BACILLUS CEREUS:

[09:19] ---
    It's an antigen!
[09:23] ---
    Are you White Blood Cell?
[09:26] ---
    Yeah, that's right.
[09:27] ---
    I wouldn't try to loot this place
    if I were you!
[09:30] ---
    Upon my honor as a bacillus cereus,
[09:32] ---
    I swear I'm going to seize
    this world from you!
[09:35] ---
    Now then! Let's fight!
[09:37] ---
    Red Blood Cell!
[09:38] ---
    Look after the Platelets!
[09:40] ---
    O-Okay!
[09:42] ---
    Just kidding!
[09:44] ---
    What?
[09:47] ---
    So you thought I was going to fight you?
[09:51] ---
    I got you! I got you!
[09:53] ---
    This world will be coming to an end soon!
[09:55] ---
    Until then, I'm going off to hide!
[09:58] ---
    Come back here! You stinking germ!
[10:06] ---
    White Blood Cell, good luck to you!
[10:11] ---
    All of you look so miserable and hot!
[10:14] ---
    H-He's gonna ride the blood flow
    and conceal himself!
[10:17] ---
    Lucky me! The flow
    inside this blood vessel has speeded up!
[10:26] ---
    As if to say, "Mr. Bacillus Cereus, please make
    a clean escape and invade this world."
[10:32] ---
    No, I think that's what it's actually saying!
[10:35] ---
    Don't get carried away!
[10:37] ---
    Whoops, that was close!
[10:41] ---
    You're not getting away!
[10:43] ---
    This is U-1146!
    Requesting immediate backup!
[10:47] ---
    Roger that! I'll meet up with you shortly!
[10:51] ---
    It's an antigen!
[10:52] ---
    There he is!
[10:56] ---
    It's coming this way!
[10:58] ---
    You're not getting away,
    you stinking germ!
[11:08] ---
    Where'd he go?
[11:12] ---
    I can't see!
[11:15] ---
    - Is he gone?
    - Did he go somewhere?
[11:17] ---
    It's getting crowded, huh?
[11:22] ---
    The obstacle is making it...
[11:26] ---
    so very easy to escape!
[11:29] ---
    - Where is he?
    - Hey you!
[11:31] ---
    You bastard!
[11:33] ---
    Hey, let me through!
[11:35] ---
    Hey! Stop pushing me!
[11:36] ---
    Oh man! It's White Blood Cell!
[11:38] ---
    I'm going after the antigen!
    Get outta my way!
[11:40] ---
    Antigen? No way! Where is it?
[11:41] ---
    It's too dark to see!
[11:43] ---
    It's hot, and it's dark! What's going on?
[11:54] ---
    It's hot! Help us!
[11:56] ---
    I'm so hot! I'm so hot!
[11:59] ---
    Somebody tell us what's going on!
[12:02] ---
    They're not coming after me?
[12:08] ---
    Whoa! It's an antigen! Over there!
[12:12] ---
    What's that White Blood Cell doing?
[12:22] ---
    So hot!
[12:24] ---
    And it's so dark I can't see a thing!
[12:46] ---
    This is great!
[12:48] ---
    To think that in this world,
    even a White Blood Cell has heat stroke...
[13:03] ---
    Cells at Work!
[13:08] ---
    Cells at Work!
[13:14] ---
    Looks like you overdid it
    in this horrible heat, huh?
[13:19] ---
    That won't do!
    You've got to take care of yourself!
[13:26] ---
    But good for you.
    You managed to keep your hat on!
SIGN    HEAT STROKE
    PREVENTATIVE MEASURE #1: HAT
    Block direct sunlight,
    overheating to the head.
[13:32] ---
    That's the last of our buckwheat tea!
[13:33] ---
    You should've kept yourself
    properly hydrated!
[13:38] ---
    Oh, that's right!
[13:40] ---
    This body lacks fluids!
SIGN    HEAT STROKE
    PREVENTATIVE MEASURE #2:
    REHYDRATION
    To prevent dehydration,
    replenish fluids and sodium frequently.
[13:42] ---
    Damn you!
[13:44] ---
    WATER
[13:44] ---
    I just told you it can't be done!
[13:45] ---
    Captain!
[13:45] ---
    Dehydration has reached maximum level!
[13:48] ---
    There... There just isn't enough
    to trigger hidrosis!
[13:53] ---
    Big Sister, I'm so hot!
[13:56] ---
    Don't worry!
[13:58] ---
    I'm sure White Blood Cell
    and his friends will take care of this!
[14:04] ---
    Gather all the sodium we have!
[14:06] ---
    We're going to use osmotic pressure
    to pump up water!
[14:09] ---
    We can't! Most of the sodium's already
    been discharged in hidrosis!
[14:13] ---
    What did you say?
[14:14] ---
    Captain! What should we do?
[14:20] ---
    At this point, there's nothing
    the system can do.
[14:24] ---
    If this keeps up,
    the body will become dehydrated!
SIGN    DEHYDRATION:
    When you lose the fluids in your body,
    compromising your daily life and
    life support activities. When you fall
    into this state, you may experience
    difficulties absorbing nutrients and oxygen,
    in excreting body wastes, in thermoregulation,
    as well as the circulation of your bodily fluids.

[14:52] ---
    Captain?
[14:59] ---
    Rain! Rain!
[15:02] ---
    Bring us the rain!
[15:05] ---
    He's praying for rain?
[15:06] ---
    Oh no! The captain's gone bonkers!
[15:16] ---
    So you can still stand?
[15:26] ---
    Oh come on! Let's see you bring it!
[15:36] ---
    Fire! Help!
[15:39] ---
    Just look. The thermoregulation system
    is utterly useless now!
[15:47] ---
    This world is coming to an end.
[15:52] ---
    A little fever like this
    doesn't bother me at all!
SIGN    BACILLUS CEREUS:
    Creating strong shells
    known as "spores"

[16:11] ---
    Hey, too bad for you,
    not being able to save everyone's lives!
[16:18] ---
    See ya.
[16:23] ---
    All righty!
[16:24] ---
    First of all, let's see...
[16:27] ---
    Maybe I'll head over to the brain
    so that I can flaunt my powers!
[16:31] ---
    Wh-What the...
[16:35] ---
    You sure are pesky, damn you!
    Just give it up!
[16:38] ---
    No way am I gonna let you
    harm this body!
[16:42] ---
    Just accept reality!
[16:45] ---
    I know you tried all kinds of things,
    like hidrosis and increased vascular flow!
[16:49] ---
    But this body's thermoregulation system's
    been defeated to the outside temperature!
[16:54] ---
    This body will be history soon!
[16:57] ---
    Now get it through your head
    that it's futile,
[16:59] ---
    and head off somewhere cool
    where you can loosen your clothes and rest!
[17:04] ---
    Say whatever you want!
[17:07] ---
    Even if the thermoregulation system loses,
[17:11] ---
    even if these efforts are in vain,
[17:14] ---
    this body is still alive!
[17:17] ---
    It doesn't mean I should shirk my duties!
[17:20] ---
    What a fool you are.
[17:22] ---
    You should at least take it easy
    at the very end.
[17:40] ---
    I did it.
[17:45] ---
    And now...
[17:46] ---
    And now...
[17:48] ---
    I'm going to conceal myself
    in the darkness and divide repeatedly!
[17:51] ---
    And while those cells panic
    over this soaring body temperature,
[17:54] ---
    I'm going to seize this body!
[17:57] ---
    And then...
[17:59] ---
    all of this will become my nation!
[18:02] ---
    All right! All right!
[18:05] ---
    I can't stop laughing!
[18:12] ---
    Now there's no one left to thwart me!
[18:25] ---
    What's this?
[18:27] ---
    What's going on? That ring of light...
[18:30] ---
    That gentle light...
[18:33] ---
    O-Oh my!
[18:35] ---
    The epidermal temperature's dropping fast!

[19:08] ---
    N-No way!
[19:17] ---
    You did it!
[19:18] ---
    You did it, Captain!
[19:20] ---
    All that praying for rain
    reached the heavens, Captain!
[19:24] ---
    Good thing we didn't give up!
[19:26] ---
    This body's been saved—
[19:29] ---
    This is great!
[19:34] ---
    Water!
[19:36] ---
    So refreshing!
[19:37] ---
    Yummy!
[19:38] ---
    - Feels so good!
    - Beautiful!
[19:42] ---
    It's starting to get light, dammit!
[19:44] ---
    Is this body recovering?
[19:47] ---
    Take that!
[19:48] ---
    Now you've done it!
[19:51] ---
    Recovered due to fluids and c-cooling?
[20:01] ---
    This... This is ridiculous!
[20:05] ---
    Hey, that was refreshing.
[20:21] ---
    Die, you goddamn germ!
[20:26] ---
    There's Big Brother White Blood Cell!
[20:29] ---
    But maybe we shouldn't go
    near him right now.
[20:33] ---
    Y-Yeah, you're right.
[20:36] ---
    Thanks to the miraculous rain
    from the heavens,

[20:39] ---
    the danger of heat stroke
    was somehow averted.

[20:44] ---
    Did those prayers for rain
    really reach the heavens?

[20:48] ---
    What it was that happened in this world...
[20:51] ---
    The cells have no way of knowing.
[21:05] ---
    Hey! Come check this out!
[21:08] ---
    White Blood Cell, I think it's this way!
[21:11] ---
    For some reason, the areas
    around the thick blood vessels,
[21:13] ---
    like the neck and underarms
    are super-cool!
[21:18] ---
    - You're right!
    - So cool!
[21:21] ---
    But I wonder why!
[21:23] ---
    Don't ask me.
[21:25] ---
    Whatever! At any rate, right now...
SIGN    COOL YOUR BODY:
    It is effective to evacuate to a cooler location,
    and cool the areas where large blood vessels
    pass through around the neck,
    the underarms, the leg joints (thighs).
[21:30] ---
    It's so cool!
[21:35] ---
    White Blood Cell,
[21:36] ---
    you should wear cooler clothes
    while you're working!
[21:39] ---
    Yeah, I guess so.
[21:42] ---
    Hey, you. You're a White Blood Cell,
    and you got heat stroke?
[21:45] ---
    What a dummy!
[21:49] ---
    And so, for a while,
    the blood cells all cooled off.
