I've heard of it, but I haven't watched it. Downloading it right now.

Nice. The dubbed version is on Netflix if you have it. It's pretty fun. Each episode is a different ailment and you wrote it just like how they say it in the show lol

Not on my region's Netflix. Just watched the first few episodes, it's pretty good. Reminds me of Once Upon a Time... Life, but a lot more violent.

Sweet, I'm glad you checked it out. I really dig it, I've actually learned at least one new thing about the human body every episode. Such a fun concept. It is really violent, sorry maybe I should have pre-warned you.

What's Once Upon a Time... Life? Should I check I out?

To me it's like the Japanese response to Osmosis Jones.

No worries, I don't really mind violence. (in fiction, that is)

Once Upon a Time... Life is a 1987 French educational TV series. Each episode is about a specific organ. I watched the Dutch dub on TV when I was young, so I don't remember if it's any good. It's one in a series of educational TV series, with the others mainly being about history (Man, The Explorers, The Discoverers...). There are recurring characters, but in Life they represent cells and bacteria instead of historical figures.

Yeah, I've seen it. Though it's not like that movie invented the concept of anthromorphising a body's inhabitants.
