Black Jack

Japanese · ブラック・ジャック

Created by Makoto Tezuka, Satoshi Kuwabara

2004–2006

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.

    This is the first animated TV series of the popular manga Black Jack. Basically, it is a faithful production of the original but some adjustments were made in the plots and depiction of surgical scenes to make them acceptable to a wider audience. Moreover, Largo, the family dog, and Sharaku and Wato Chiyoko from The Three-Eyed One join the series as regular characters.

  • Black Jack 21

    Season 2 · 2006

    Black Jack attempts to find out the conspiracy, of why he was involved in the bombfield accident that killed his mother. Together with Pinoko, they circles the globe in search of clues. Along the way, he discovers the deep and dark secrets of the Organization and Project "Noir".
