Arguably Among The Most Well-Written Female Protagonist

Why Maomao Steals The Show

At the core of The Apothecary Diaries is its heroine, Maomao, an archetype, to put it mildly. Her wit and sarcasm make her one of the best-written female protagonists in anime, and her personality is just a joy to watch. Where most cliché female characters in anime fluster and act all weird, Maomao does not care at all. And whether she’s uncovering mysteries in the palace or grumbling about having to be a part of politics at court, Maomao is a character to contend with.

In Season 2, the show plans to go even further with her character and her struggles and interactions in the imperial palace. As Long Maomao is back, it means the action, amazing and witty plot, and unexpected twists will not be far away from viewers. The Apothecary Diaries Season 2 can be streamed on Crunchyroll, with episodes being released on a weekly basis.
