U-4989 is a minor character in Cells at Work!.
Appearance[]
Like the other neutrophils, he wears the all white neutrophil uniform and has white skin and hair. His eyes are slightly bigger than the other neutrophils. He has short fluffy hair with split bangs.
Personality[]
U-4989, though a competent fighter, seems naïve compared to his comrades. He is known for improvising weapons, and he once forgot to use his L-Selectin at an abrasion, causing him to almost fall to his death. He often appears bloodthirsty but is a kind and sensitive cell who loves his comrades deeply. He continually shows his concern toward U-1146's well-being and is touched, to the point of crying, by AE3803's goodwill toward white blood cells.
Background[]
He is a Neutrophil working under the Neutrophil Division and a close friend of U-1146, along with U-2001, U-2626 and U-2048. As a neutrophil, his purpose is to destroy bacteria invading the body.
History[]
Trivia[]
- He once tied his knife to a stick, making a makeshift spear.
- His code, 4989 (4=shi 9=ku 8=ha 9=ku), is pronounced similarly to the Japanese idiom 四苦八苦 (shikuhakku), which means having a hard time.
