Hey everyone! Here it is - my reaction to episode 14 of The Apothecary Diaries! OMG YAY! We got to see all our old friends again! Also the "lesson" looked so fun and interesting haha and Jinshi trying to sneak around and hear it was hilarious! I'm not sure what to make of the new Pure Consort yet, same with our monocle character, but I guess we'll see! Also Maomao's back at it with the mysteries in this one! Great ep! Enjoy! ~ MH

Hello Melissa, we have now reached the second part of the first season of the Apothecary's Diaries. First of all, I'm glad to hear that you like the new opening and ending. Personally, I like them even better than the ones from the first part. I can't tell you exactly why. Visually, the first opening was of course really great to look at, but I didn't think the song was quite as good and in the second opening, I thought both things were super beautiful. And the second ending has so much more emotion between Maomao and Jinshi. I love how the ED shows how happy and carefree jinshi is with maomao. We've also seen in the two episodes that Maomao is now more or less working for Jinshi. And I think he's quite happy to have her even closer to him than before. He also gets jealous very quickly, as we've seen, and is desperate to protect her from the eyes of other men. Because I think he knows first-hand what it's like when someone you don't really like desires you. I keep thinking about it, because Maomao has often mentioned it himself, how many people actually like Jinshi, both men and women. And he doesn't really want that and actually hates his pretty appearance. I think he likes Mamao so much because she can see his true character traits beyond his handsome looks. And he's actually a totally sweet boy who doesn't get enough friendly attention and that's why he's thrown himself at her so much, so he can get as much of her attention as possible. Even if it's not always positive attention. I agree with you 100% that I would absolutely watch a 30 minute episode of just Jinshi, topless. Although this is coming across creepy now, I would even buy the aphrodisiac Maomao would have wanted to make from his scent. 😅🤣 This episode also introduced you to three new, very important and interesting characters. These include Lakan, the still nameless servant and the new concubine Lolan. I think apart from Gyokuyou, all the concubines now start with L. Which makes it really difficult to tell them apart. In future episodes you'll find out a lot more about these three characters and I'm excited to see how your perception of them will change. I found the lesson Maomao had to give to the concubine very amusing. Although it was never said exactly what she was teaching, you could tell from the expressions on the other four ladies' faces what exactly she was teaching them. Of course, Jinshi was also interested in this kind of thing. You could have guessed that, he is a young man who is constantly surrounded by very pretty women, even though he is missing important parts for certain things. That doesn't necessarily mean he's uninterested in such stuff. The fact that we saw Lihaku again was also a positive surprise, because I really like his character. He brings a bit more comedy to the show. He's a good counterpart to Maomao's more cat-like character and he's more of a golden retriever type of guy. And of course we have another mystery for Maomao to solve. You'll find out later how this relates to other events.

Hey Leonie! I'm so glad you like the opening and ending too! I agree that the visuals add a lot! I really love the first ones but these might even be better imo! I love the shot of the two of them too! I love Jinshi being protective/jealous, and that's actually a great point that he understands how it is to be objectified somewhat. I love that Maomao sees past the charm/looks and that's part of why he likes her so much! OMG we would both be glued to that Jinshi ep :P And OMG the scent hahaha!!! Honestly, with all these up and coming anime candle companies, I'd totally expect that to be a scent you can buy :P Oooh thanks for the name info! I'm sure it'll take me a while with all these l names haha but I'm looking forward to getting to know them better! Hahahaha the lesson was so funny, all they had to do was imply for it to be funny! True, you can see that Jinshi's curiosity is pretty piqued here lol! I was happy to see Lihaku again too, and it's cute that they're building sort of a crush/romance for him with the princess! I love golden retriever types haha! I can't wait to know more about the mystery!
