[Anime of the Week] Black Jack (6/21-7/3/2010)


I feel in live with the franchise that is Black Jack back when I saw the movie The Surgeon with the Hands of God and then the special The 4 Miracles of Life. I recently started watching the TV series and am loving every minute of this. You know when a show is based on one of the God of Manga Tezuka's series you know that it is gunna be really good!

Synopsis:
Black Jack is an "unregistered" doctor with a clouded, mysterious past. He works with his little assistant Pinoko (who has a massive crush on the doctor), dealing with medical cases not very well known, which can be strange, dangerous, or not known at all. But he is a genius, and can save almost any of his patients' life (as long as they have the money for it, that is), and is known to many around the world, especially to those of medicine and science. He's a man of science himself, and does not believe much until he has seen it, yet it is many times he is surprised by love and nature often overpowering the science he bases his life in.
