After Being Kidnapped, This GENIUS APOTHECARY Girl Must Solve Mysteries In The Emperor's Palace

The Apothecary Diaries Synopsis:

Maomao, an apothecary's daughter, has been plucked from her peaceful life and sold to the lowest echelons of the imperial court. Now merely a maid, Maomao settles into her new mundane life and hides her extensive knowledge of medicine in order to avoid any unwanted attention.

Not long after Maomao's arrival, the emperor's infant children inexplicably begin to experience grave symptoms—almost as if a curse has been cast. The curious Maomao easily solves the mystery and, to remain out of the limelight, attempts to leave an anonymous tip. Unfortunately, the dashing and perceptive eunuch Jinshi sees through it and manages to single her out.

In recognition of her talent, Maomao is promoted to lady-in-waiting for the emperor's favorite concubine, Gyokuyou. As Maomao continues to remedy the numerous ailments afflicting the imperial court, her pharmaceutical expertise quickly proves indispensable.

For anyone who missed my comment to the earlier posting:

The game that Maomao plays against her father is XiangQi, not Go. XiangQi is a chess variant, possibly closer to the proto-chess than is chaturanga.

The games that Maomao's parents played were XiangQi and WeiQi. Go is WeiQi with a rule-change. The Japanese claim to have perfected the game with this rule-change; the Chinese claim that the Japanese screwed-up the game.

I love Maomao! Always so amazing to see well-written female characters with neurodivergent vibes ❣️She and Jinshi balance each other out so well

I've always heard about this anime, but I wasn't planning on watching it. I just finished watching everything from start to finish and I'm glad that I didn't watch it until now. Good job with the recap, and thanks for keeping it interesting all the way through.

[Alazylunatic]

Finally! This series was my favorite to binge watch on! I’m glad to finally see a recap on it :D

Fun fact about maomao is that she has a lot of signs and symptoms of having ADHD and I myself have ADHD so I believe that she may have ADHD although this is only a theory, but she is quite relatable so I thought I might as well say this.

[Meegas]

I love how Jinshi literally has so much character development and autistic Maomao here still autistic 😭

[Bouta_die]
