Black Jack (Manga)	comment	A manga series about an unlicensed physician who charges immense fees to use his miraculous healing skills. Well, sometimes immense. He actually charges however much people can afford to pay him, but he's not above defining "afford to pay him" as "every yen you've got and you'll be paying off the balance for years."Created by Osamu Tezuka, the original manga series ran from 1973 to 1983 in Weekly Shonen Champion. Since Tezuka was himself a qualified medical doctor, the series often had a strong sense of verisimilitude, but the creator was not above exaggeration for Rule of Cool and Mundane Made Awesome moments, or even just making new diseases and medical conditions up. The series has had several animated adaptations.Black Jack himself is a mysterious but distinctive figure, with a scarred, discolored face and a white shock in his black hair. He lives alone in an isolated beach house at the beginning of the series, before taking in Pinoko. Black Jack is a brilliant surgeon but has no license (the reasons for this vary a bit between adaptations.) He charges enormous fees to wealthy clients but often helps the needy for just as much as they can pay, or even for free, and if his operations fail generally refunds the money paid. His behavior is often abrupt to the point of rudeness, and he has a rather dark sense of humor. Often, he will arrange circumstances to teach An Aesop to the guest character of the story.Other manga series have featured a Captain Ersatz or Lawyer-Friendly Cameo of Black Jack when the script calls for a doctor. Dr. Black Jack is one of Tezuka's most popular characters, often named second only to Astro Boy in that regard.The 2004 anime adaptation is legally available to watch on Tubi. By 2011 a prequel to the series was made titled Young Black Jack, which stars a younger, more handsome Black Jack, and details his days working in the Japanese medical field in the 60s. It received an anime adaptation for the October 2015, and is available on Crunchyroll.Not to be confused with comedian Jack Black. Or the card game. Or Say Hello to Black Jack, which is also a manga about doctors who must work within the Japanese medical system, unlike their childhood hero. As well as the Micromaster.

After managing to plea Black Jack for help telepathically, he removed the mass containing her conscience from her twin's interior and put it within an artificial body, effectively making her a "full" person.

Black Jack (Manga) / int_20c99f6e	comment	Hidden Heart of Gold: Black Jack actively strives to look like a bad guy, especially when it's for the patient's own good. In an episode Black Jack is called in to perform the operation at the behest of a seemingly inhuman mother who was forcing the boy to get up and walk every night, further injuring him. Black Jack discovers later that the mother had been acting so because she realized the house was under surveillance by the military of the country, which had already executed her husband for speaking against the war. Mr. Muramasa from Teacher and Pupil is a tough but warm Gentle Giant who puts up an incredibly vicious and sadistic facade in front of his students, insulting harshly them over small slights and mistakes. Muramasa's reasoning for this is to make them want to prove his insults wrong and overcome him, but unfortunately, this doesn't work at all on one student who would rather die than go back to class... When Muramasa finds out about this he is absolutely horrified and guilt-ridden. In the end, Muramasa totally drops the facade in favor of being his usual strict but kindly self to his student.

Black Jack (Manga) / int_277686f2	comment	Reused Character Design: A signature style of Tezuka. Black Jack is special for his work in that Black Jack and Pinoko are only reused when he specifically is trying to cameo them in other works. Dr. Hounma, who's also a rather unique design, is used again in nearly every major Tezuka work, and prominently in Phoenix, showing Hounma's continued Reincarnations all end up as The Woobie. Of course, Black Jack features Tezuka's good old standard cast, including Astro Boy, Acytelene Lamp, Ham Egg, and pretty much every recurring Tezuka character ever.

Black Jack (Manga) / int_344935b3	type	HalfTruth
Black Jack (Manga) / int_344935b3	comment	Half-Truth: Most of Black Jack's diagnosis as told to his patients and their families, to protect them or because he's certain they couldn't handle their therapy otherwise: For example, in one of the earliest stories, a mafioso has a good kid framed for a crime he didn't commit, to use him as "spare parts" for his own spoiled rotten son. Black Jack gives the good kid plastic surgery and tells him to claim to be the mafioso's son and use his money to escape, bringing along his own poor mother. Black Jack tells one of his patients the story of a young paraplegic who regained full mobility by exercising strenuously, then downtoning the story as a fib. As the patient starts a long marathon, as in the story he was just told about, Black Jack quietly follows him, interested. It's revealed that Black Jack wasn't telling all the truth: the young paraplegic in the story was Black Jack as a little kid. Black Jack fits a former kid athlete with a crude, low-tech prostetic arm, claiming it's "Special". It's later discovered that the arm actually had a useful feature: a two-way radio connected with a receiver, given to the kid's secret crush, who then was able to comfort him and push him to a new career as a shogi champion. Black Jack performs surgery on a young singer, telling her that if she doesn't observe a short vocal rest she'll go mute. The singer is so stressed that she disobeys to perform in a School Festival, screwing over her voice. Black Jack then puts her on an unusual year long (three months in the anime) total voice rest, claiming that, if she obeys, he'll install a costly artificial voice box in her throat. The artificial voice box was just a broken stethoscope, and Black Jack just wanted to scare her into observing proper therapy. After she did, she healed just fine. Black Jack claims he performed surgery on a girl to let her take the place of her dead brother as the heir of an important firm. Later, he reveals he just hypnotized the girl to believe his lie, thus making her able and comfortable to perform the given role.

Black Jack (Manga) / int_36c64123	comment	Mr. Muramasa from Teacher and Pupil is a tough but warm Gentle Giant who puts up an incredibly vicious and sadistic facade in front of his students, insulting harshly them over small slights and mistakes. Muramasa's reasoning for this is to make them want to prove his insults wrong and overcome him, but unfortunately, this doesn't work at all on one student who would rather die than go back to class... When Muramasa finds out about this he is absolutely horrified and guilt-ridden. In the end, Muramasa totally drops the facade in favor of being his usual strict but kindly self to his student.

An early manga chapter has Black Jack dealing with a man who has a "face sore" - a swelling with its own personality, based on an old Japanese tale, which happens to be on his face. The man's a serial killer, and tries to kill Black Jack once the operation's done... but the sore takes over, throws him off a cliff, and asks that they be allowed to die. Jack complies, wondering if the sore was actually the man's conscience.

Triton in the manga was a vicious killer whale who regularly attacked human beings and only spared Black Jack because he would tend to the wounds he suffered during his attacks. In the anime, Triton is a Hero with Bad Publicity, being mistaken for a second killer whale who is the real culprit behind the attacks, and the wounds he received were the result of him trying to prevent the feral whale from harming the sailors.

The next day, a foreign man in casual clothes came to his house with a patient in tow, asking Black Jack to perform surgery with him as the assistant. Black Jack instantly knew that the man is really The Emperor, but Pinoko didn't and he ended up getting bossed around as Pinoko's assistant. But The Emperor took it well, he remarked how his status often acts as a leash, and at the end of the day thanked Black Jack for fulfilling his request.

Black Jack (Manga) / int_4eaa9b84	comment	Author Tract: Mostly against abuses in the medical establishment, but usually saved by good characterization and Black Jack's sheer awesome. One example that really sticks out, though is Dingoes, a Green Aesop about the dangers of pesticides and introduced species that erroneously attributes the arrival of the titular beasts in Australia, and the subsequent damage they caused to the ecosystem, to European colonists, when they actually predate Europe's colonial age and are believed to have been brought by an earlier wave of humans in prehistoric times. Whether this was intentional on Tezuka's part in order to shoehorn in an anti-colonialist message, or if it was a simple mistake is unclear. At any rate, considering this episode also features Black Jack extracting a parasite from his own intestines while the dingoes are trying to eat him, it's hard to bear a grudge.

It turns out the Australian kid also was lying... because he was another ill boy, and actually blind. When they make up, Black Jack operates on both of them and they get better.

Black Jack (Manga) / int_79b5990c	comment	Mr. Vice Guy: Blackjack is notable for 2 things: Greed and Pride, although he plays with them. For Greed, he charges an exorbitant amount of money for his skills, often remarking that that amount of money is very cheap for his services. But he also knows when to NOT charge the money, and it's later revealed that he'd been using the money to exact long-term revenge plots against the people who originally crippled him and killed his mother. Blackjack doesn't care about titles and honors, and is perfectly content with people thinking he's just a back-alley, unlicensed surgeon. But the surest way to make him show his skillsnote Even Blackjack has been shown to refuse his services on certain cases, despite the money offered is to show that one is more skilled than him and somehow imply that he'd be incapable of achieving the same feat. At one point he was flabbergasted that an old priest did a near-perfect surgery, and then challenging the priest for a 'surgeon-off', despite the priest insisting that the whole thing was a divine intervention.

Black Jack (Manga) / int_868409c	comment	Broken Pedestal: Subverted with Dr. Jotaro Honma, Black Jack's savior and greatest inspiration. He confesses on his death bed that the reason for his retirement was that he once accidentally left a scalpel in Black Jack's body and out of pride only checked it in a follow-up operation years later. Black Jack is shocked, but doesn't hold it against him and still holds Honma in extremely high regard in subsequent chapters. An elementary class reunion prompts Black Jack to find his old teacher, whom everyone thought was fired for trying to expose corruption within the school. Black Jack eventually finds him, but is horrified to discover the man was a drug addict who was just pretending to be a teacher but discovered it was a lot of fun anyway and really was trying to rob the school (the money was corrupt, but that didn't matter). Ashamed at the man who had been such an inspiration for his classmates was a fraud, he puts him through an extreme detox regimen and succeeds in getting him sober. Black Jack not only doesn't charge him for his trouble but keeps the "teacher"'s secret from the other students. One of Black Jack's best childhood friends grows to be an infamous criminal who tasks him to transplant his fingertips. Black Jack does it and is rewarded with a timebomb hidden in a suitcase. After miraculously surviving the explosion, Black Jack foils his ex-friend's plans and lands him in death row... only for it to turn out that the guy honestly didn't order for Black Jack to be offed. One chapter opens with a diary entry by a boy who thinks his parents are the best doctors in the world, but his father dies and he has to deal with the fact the man was a gambling addict and left his mother with a huge debt to pay... to a certain Black Jack, who hires himself into their clinic for a month. Jack helps them move on and gifts them 10 million yen, becoming the kid's new hero in the end.

In "Emergency Shelter", Jack plays it cool once he gets trapped in the titular room — but once everyone else starts screaming for help, he joins in. Once Jack's done with finding a solution, he wipes sweat off his face with a particularly relieved expression. Another notable example is seen in "Dingoes", in which Jack becomes seriously distressed over being on the verge of death.

Then she turns the TV off.

A doctor who served in wartime, he believes in helping patients die painlessly when there is no chance for recovery. He's not evil, as such, but where Black Jack will do anything possible to make a patient live, Dr. Kiriko will choose euthanasia rather than prolong the patient's suffering. Naturally, the physicians clash at times but must cooperate at others. To his credit, if he discovers that the patient has a chance of recovery, guess who he turns to? Black Jack actually had three shadows, though Kiriko was the only one who stuck. An acupuncturist who disdained traditional medicine appeared a few times, and an idealistic doctor who worked within the system appeared exactly once.

Black Jack (Manga) / int_ba46585b	comment	Adaptational Backstory Change: This is changed depending on the material. In Blackjack 21, it's revealed that the bomb at the beach was deliberately placed there by people of the Phoenix organization in order to harm Kuroo and Mio, as a way to threaten Kagemitsu into staying with the organization. Black Jack's backstory is completely rewritten in the Young Black Jack live action television special (which has nothing to do with the manga & anime of the same title). Some time ago, Kuroo (now named Tatsu) had a happy a normal life with his family, until his father abandoned them one night without saying a word. The stress of this abandonment led to Tatsu's mother becoming mute, but despite this the two were able to get by just fine. One night, they were about to meet each other at a shopping mall during Christmas Eve because Tatsu wanted to give her his present to her—a drawing of a red rose. While waiting for his mother, Tatsu notices that there's a gift under the tree, with a playing card on it. Completely oblivious to the other people who are running away because of a bomb threat, Tatsu waves his drawing to his mother while she runs to him, realizing that the bomb is right near him. Right as she rushes towards her son despite the security guards' attempts to block her, the bomb goes off. In short, Black Jack and his mother were victims of a terrorist attack.

Black Jack (Manga) / int_e8a56ee7	comment	Steven Ulysses Perhero: Black Jack's real name is Kuroo Hazama. As he explains himself once, "Kuro" means "black" while the second "o" can be short for "otoko", meaning "man". Thus "Black Jack" is a loose English translation of his actual name.

So Jack makes her look exactly like his mother, the woman he considers the most beautiful in the world.

Black Jack (Manga) / int_ea2e9f2d	type	No Ending
Black Jack (Manga) / int_ea2e9f2d	comment	No Ending: The SL Called Life originally gave an open ending to the series. Several chapters were made afterward, but none ever gave closure to Jack's journey. As soon as their aesop is made clear, several stories end without a proper resolution. The manga teases an overreaching plot about Jack's revenge on the people responsible for the tragedy that ruined his mother's life. It doesn't get past the second encounter.

Black Jack (Manga) / int_eb5b71fe	comment	Clingy Jealous Girl: Pinoko, who sees herself as Black Jack's wife (or at least fiance?), while he thinks of her more as a daughter. It doesn't help that she's technically 18 years old, but her stunted growth makes her look like a little girl, and Precocious Crush aside she doesn't really act eighteen either.

Naturally, Black Jack's first reaction is to wonder how a surgeon could do such a shoddy job on a patient.

After contracting a disease, Black Jack is forced to operate on himself, but the smell of his blood attracts a pack of dingoes. He barely survives by using his scalpel as an Improvised Weapon, repelling the predators just long enough for his friends to find him and take him to safety.

Black Jack (Manga) / int_fd4f8299	comment	Dr. Kiriko (aka "Mozart"). A doctor who served in wartime, he believes in helping patients die painlessly when there is no chance for recovery. He's not evil, as such, but where Black Jack will do anything possible to make a patient live, Dr. Kiriko will choose euthanasia rather than prolong the patient's suffering. Naturally, the physicians clash at times but must cooperate at others. To his credit, if he discovers that the patient has a chance of recovery, guess who he turns to?
