History Anime / RayTheAnimation

* CloningBlues: [[spoiler:Ray and the rest of the white room kids were made as living organ banks.]]

The series tells the story of Ray (or [[SpellMyNameWithAnS Rei]]) Kasugano, a girl who received unnatural eyes with which she can see through objects and bodies, after her original ones were stolen by an evil organization in the organ business. She now works as a doctor, putting her special ability to use. Together with her business partner Shinoyama and the rest of the hospital staff, she tries to cure patients suffering from various bizarre illnesses whilst unraveling more about the mysterious organization that had kept her imprisoned during her childhood.

* CloningBlues: The white room children were created as living organ banks.

* LawyerFriendlyCameo: In the manga, Black Jack was never clearly seen and only called "B.J.". The anime was made by Tezuka's studio, and so this isn't necessary - Black Jack appears fully, is called by name, and we even see the beach house.

* VillainousBreakdown: [[spoiler:Koichi, complete with RedemptionEqualsDeath.]]
