>Black Jack

yes, good

Just looked at the trope page. Was amused by the fact that everyone calls him Bad Ass in about seven different ways.

because he is

they sure like pointing out "Dingoes"

LMAO OH GOD

wait until you get to that scene

you can't NOT think he's a badass after that

can I spoil?

I read the manga. It was so ridiculous

omg

yeah then let me just

he has to take something out of his abdomen surgically in the middle of the Australian outback

with like bare basic tools

and no anesthetic whatsoever

and if he doesn't, he'll die, and he's also lost IIRC

yep

so this fucking badass just performs surgery on himself

no anesthetic

and the smell of the blood attracts dingoes

YEP.

and they fucking attack his bubble

(for lack of a better word /) ___(\ )

and he fights those assholes off

using scapels

WHILE PERFORMING SURGERY ON HIMSELF, WITHOUT ANESTHETIC

TO REMOVE A PARASITE

*scalpels

oh yeah and he basically gave Pinoko her body... while drunk

bow to him

he is god

(ohmigawd why did i leave this fandom at all ;__

stupid smiley

have you seen Ray the Animation?

it's a kinda-sorta Black Jack spinoff

basically ascended fanfiction

nope

but Tezuka's studio signed on for the anime adaptation so it's legit

it's a 12 (13? idr) episode anime

good watch if you like BJ

since he's... in it

I'm keep it in my mind

*keeping

it's about a girl who was born in a "white room" full of children intended to be used as organ donors

but not now

and by organ donors, I mean not willingly

I should be at home, innocently reading books

organs sold on the black market

she gets her eyes removed as part of this

but You-Know-Who comes along and gives her new, x-ray eyes.

so she basically becomes BJ 2.0

raised by a surgeon, learns to become a surgeon herself

the whole series tackles bioethical issues, cloning, etc.

and has a lot of fun BJ-style surgeries too

with hilarious sci-fi elements to some of them

and also, love triangle and kinda-sorta incest!

yep.

definitely checking it out

WATCH IT, it's cool

i have to

o7

but like i said, not now

fair enough

yeah, not many people know about it since it's ascended fanfiction

i'm not supposed to be on the computer > >

and not especially mainstream

LMAO bad

my dad'll be here in about...

15 mins?

(for some reason, as soon as you said that the girl got x-ray eyes, i imagined her waking up and freaking at BJ's)

(yeah)

LMAO

she actually does have x-ray eyes though

like, she can see through clothing and shit too.

it's touched on.
