The Apothecary Diaries Animation

In the rear palace of a great nation at the heart of the continent lives a young woman named Maomao. Once an apothecary in the pleasure district, she now works as a palace servant. After learning that the emperor’s children have been dying young, and that the two surviving infants are growing weaker from illness, curiosity drives her to investigate. She has little patience for the suggestion that a curse might be responsible.

The beautiful eunuch Jinshi makes Maomao food taster to the emperor’s favoured consort. Although she has little interest in people, her fascination with poisons and medicines is extraordinary. Rumours, intrigues and difficult cases draw the resourceful apothecary deeper into palace affairs. As Jinshi continues to hand her troublesome assignments, she keeps finding solutions in a world where beauty conceals danger.

This volume continues the palace mystery series with episodes 13–18. The permanent extras include commentaries for episodes 13 and 17, the second-cour promotional video, and creditless opening and ending sequences.
