    Synopsis:

    In a near-future world dominated by powerful corporations, the clandestine organization known as the Ghost of Icarus disrupts the status quo with acts of calculated defiance. Amidst the fallout of their operations, the enigmatic surgeon Black Jack encounters Dr. Kiriko, a figure equally shrouded in controversy. Both operate on the fringes of conventional morality, offering unconventional solutions to suffering – one through life-saving surgery at exorbitant prices, the other through assisted death.

    When the Ghost of Icarus proposes an uneasy alliance between these two figures, Black Jack is drawn into a complex web of ethical dilemmas. He must navigate a dangerous path where the boundaries of life and death blur, facing impossible choices as he struggles to protect his patients while preventing a catastrophic biological conflict that threatens all of humanity. The series explores themes of mortality, corporate power, and the value of human life in an increasingly sterile world.

      The Two Doctors of Darkness focuses on Black Jack competing medically with his arch nemesis Dr. Kiriko (from the older original Black Jack OVAS) while also trying to find a cure for a disease that could end the world. Rock, a character from many other Tezuka works, such as Metropolis, brings gun fights and action to the movie to make the plot a mix of medical mystery, evils of corporations, and the meanings of life and death. Compared to the parent story (Black Jack (TV) series), the plot seems a little out of place since it is focuses heavily on the aftermath of war andmilitary experiments along with Black Jack struggling with hopelessness of being unable to help his patients. The tone better matches the original older OVAS than the lighthearted TV series.nnOverall, this movie is decent and certainly entertaining if you like Black Jack, but don't expect a masterpiece going into it. I think this movie is more for those who enjoy the ethical dilemmas and darker tone of the older series than those watching this as a sequel to Black Jack (TV).
