Black Jack

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.

5. U-18 Already Knew

0.0Dec 22, 2003 · 25 min

Dr. Wattman is the creator of the medical program, U-18 which uses computer technology to manage over 900 patients. However U-18 shuts down its operations, stating that it is ill and must be treated by Black Jack within 48 hours or it will terminate life support functions for the patients. Dr. Wattman argues that it is a machine which needs mechanical repair but the computer refuses to accept it. With only minutes to spare before the deadline, Jack arrives by helicopter, and agrees to operate for $10 million. After confirming his identity, U-18 agrees to switch its circuits off so that he can operate. Dr. Wattman tries to decommission U-18, but Jack refuses because it is his patient. After a successful operation, U-18 decides to retire, but Dr. Wattman realizes that the computer has become her daughter and they agree to run the hospital together.
