Mission! Health Number OneRED BLOOD CELL

Mission! Health Number One

The anime Cells at Work! gained attention for its original concept of turning the inside of the human body into a story.

Its medical supervision is solid, and some scholars even recommend it for educational purposes.

The song Mission! Health Comes First is the opening theme of Cells at Work!, with a pop vibe.

The vocal range is narrow and there aren’t many long sustained notes, so as long as you can handle the macrophage part’s spoken-style lines, it can be considered a very low-difficulty piece.
