Cells at Work: Baby! Volume 1

A Fun Manga with Cells at Work Vibes!

I can totally understand how those who have taken biology, physiology, etc. have read Cells at Work and it helped them ace their classes! Wow! What an informative and fun read!

I enjoyed how the main character gave off Red Blood Cell vibes from the original work as she is one of my favorite characters (though this main character is much more vocal and less timid). I also liked that overall there is some distinct Cells at Work vibes in general even if some of the characters DO have different personalities. It felt nostalgia in that regard of bringing “homage” to the original.

All the characters were SUPER cute! I think the Parietal Cells were my favorite and absolutely loved how there was talk about mother’s milk and the positive things it does for a baby’s health! I feel that is a score for breast feeding moms!

I LOVED the interview at the end! I thought it to be really special and think that though this is no substitute for seeing a doctor or anything like that, I found it to be really informative and an easier way to understand the information of what exactly happens in newborn babies’ bodies. I deeply appreciated the why and intention of this manga’s messaged and why it was being shared.

I would recommend this manga to those who enjoyed Cells at Work but are curious about what happens in a baby’s body and to those who are pregnant and are curious as well.
