Black Jack/Trivia


 * Remember Pinoko, the Clingy Jealous Girl sidekick of Dr. Black Jack in the anime and manga of the same name? Well, would you believe that she's an Artificial Human constructed by the aforementioned doctor from a woman's underdeveloped parasitic twin and some spare parts while he was drunk? It's totally the truth, we swear.
 * There's also an episode that deals with a love triangle between a young doctor, his fiance and - get this - a surgically altered, sapient deer.
 * There's a chapter in the manga in which Black Jack operates on his own intestines... in the middle of the Australian Outback... after being stranded for several days... while being attacked by dingoes... Yeah.
 * Hey Its That Voice: Black Jack is voiced by Akio Ohtsuka, best known for as Solid Snake.
 * And in flashbacks, you might recognize teenage Black Jack's voice better if he had hands that glowed with an awesome power instead of the hands of God.
 * Pinoko is Excellen. Now we're waiting for a Black Jack Shout Out from her.
 * In the OAV dub, Black Jack is Jin, Hideo Kuze, and Hajime Saito; Pinoko is Hikaru and Arusu!
 * Jo Carol Brane, the first movie's leading lady, is voiced by Mayo Suzukaze. Yes, THAT Mayo Suzukaze.
