2025-03-26 10:55:24 +0000 UTCSo the granny had chased Lakkan off when he first got back after the 3 years and said she was “gone”. That’s why he never went back. If he did go back I think she would’ve been much better off health wise. Smh

2024-09-16 15:36:51 +0000 UTCI definitely recc Raven of the Inner Palace

2024-06-08 22:25:10 +0000 UTCNana is a masterpiece🤝🏾hopefully we do get a reaction from them
AkdrzlLOL
2024-04-05 00:26:00 +0000 UTCIf Maomao was able to figure out that it probably wasnt really his fault without being able to talk to her mother, Im pretty sure grandma should know more after talking with the woman in question. And Meimei wouldnt have let him see her if she thought he was 100% to blame for the incident either, so it is reasonable to assume grandma knows the whole story and still wouldnt let him see her.

2024-04-04 02:30:10 +0000 UTCHe ruined the courtesan's career, basically handed her a death sentence by proxy and he nearly ruined the Verdigris house in the process. Would you want a disaster of that caliber back in your life?

2024-03-31 06:38:02 +0000 UTCI recommend The Dangers In My Heart as a replacement. YaBoyRockLee is watching and loving it! It's a rom-com with 2 seasons of 12/13 eps (25 total), the season 2 finale just dropped so the anime is still new and it's very much talked about.
Just Chilline
2024-03-30 23:34:57 +0000 UTCYes! I agree with both of these suggestions

2024-03-30 18:19:20 +0000 UTCThis and Frieren at the same damn time was such a gift from the anime gods 🙌🏾

2024-03-28 03:37:27 +0000 UTCIf you guys loved apothecary diaries, I think you'll love raven of the inner palace!
Andrea
2024-03-28 01:58:08 +0000 UTCSo at that point it wouldn't even be spoiler territory right since it really doesnt affect the story, we are already informed beforehand and its something that you can infer from what we currently have in the anime.
Random Guy
2024-03-27 21:00:03 +0000 UTCThe LN does mention her after this (IDK about mango as I'm a source material only reader), but it's pretty much only in passing like maybe once, then the 2nd time is when she pepsi's & it's mentioned
Skebaba
2024-03-27 16:38:44 +0000 UTC...Study? Is that what they call being sent to boogaloo against barbarians?
Skebaba
2024-03-27 16:36:53 +0000 UTCYes, Luomen is Lakan's uncle.

2024-03-27 15:32:58 +0000 UTCPraying for fruits basket as the replacement or horimiya
Kayla Grabow
2024-03-27 04:23:30 +0000 UTCIs it really a spoiler though? Timestamp I7:52 Maomao herself mentioned the mom won't last long and I've been reading the manga in advanced and she never gets mentioned again so I assumed she just died off screen.
Random Guy
2024-03-27 02:05:14 +0000 UTCOmg I’ve read the manga light novel and webnovel for this series and this was one of fav arc!! I still can’t believe we got an anime for it and it was beautifully animated. I can’t wait for season 2😫 This is kind of random but have you guys watched Nana (2006)? The anime has 47 eps. If not I would love to see you guys reacting to it one of these days!

2024-03-26 17:09:51 +0000 UTCDamn, Apothecary Diaries LN readers really like to throw in spoilers to their explanations lmao.

2024-03-26 17:06:11 +0000 UTCYes the tip of your finger can grow back I have accidentally cut mine off and it looks like I never cut it

2024-03-26 16:38:08 +0000 UTCSuch an interesting and calming show. Good stuff. Can't wait for more 🤸🏾♀️🤸🏾♀️

2024-03-26 15:11:17 +0000 UTCReally enjoyed watching along with you guys.
Barry
2024-03-26 14:27:55 +0000 UTCMaybe I'm reading too much into this, but is Maomao's adopted father Lakan's uncle? it feels like they were hinting at that.
Richie Roberts
2024-03-26 13:03:00 +0000 UTCMe too, with a slicer years ago and it grew back
Giulia Moraschetti
2024-03-26 12:07:15 +0000 UTCBro really thinks he’s funny 🥱
lyssa
2024-03-26 10:08:09 +0000 UTCYep that's a spoiler.
poisonivybag
2024-03-26 08:41:04 +0000 UTCIt is true that baby have better recovery than adult, some case even reported that part of body regenerate growing up. I cut my dick off when I was three and it grew back after a few years too
Arima Kana
2024-03-26 08:30:47 +0000 UTCUhm, isn't the last one a spoiler?
LY
2024-03-26 06:33:27 +0000 UTCMaomao's mom plotted to get pregnant so she couldn't get sold since two guys were already bidding on her. Lakan couldn't afford to bid on her so she figured out how to make her undesirable to the guys wanting to buy her by getting pregnant. Since Lakan was visiting every 3 months then he could've bought her out and she'd be free to be with him. But then Maomao's dad got kicked out of the rear palace and Lakan got sent off to study abroad which screwed up the plan.
SakakiMaya
2024-03-26 04:54:05 +0000 UTC-mao mao actually lost the tip of her finger, i think they shown it before that her finger was crooked when she asked she wondered what kind of medicine love would make. It regrew back but its crooked - her mom actually looks worse in manga, her nose literally fell off already but it didnt matter coz lakan sees her how she was before - mei mei also liked lakan - its kinda sad because mao mao's mom died soon after being bought out, the disease was too far gone. Even if he was abroad I feel like he couldve written her a letter at least he had 3 whole years to inform her
Random Guy
2024-03-26 04:38:50 +0000 UTCThe granny told him that the mom wasn't there when he returned from his military posting. I think they showed it in the flashback in the previous episode
Luciaron
2024-03-26 04:15:53 +0000 UTCnice theory but sadly not true.
Deshawn Smith
2024-03-26 04:12:02 +0000 UTCFor anyone that loved this show as much as I did I HIGHLY recommend a show called "Hyouka" it follows the same formula as apothecary diaries with new mysteries to solve each ep with an over arcing story, a very sweet romance and amazing characters it doesn't have a historical aspect to it though still an amazing show nonetheless. I'm really going to miss this show this was my favorite anime for winter and my second from fall of last year second only to JJK I can't wait for S2 in 2025
Julian_lol
2024-03-26 02:47:16 +0000 UTCMaomao didn't get the ox bezoar (yet?); the thing she was obsessing over in the post-credits scene was the cordyceps mushroom that Jinshi gave her when he bought her from the Verdigris House.
chaosdreamer
2024-03-26 02:29:40 +0000 UTCFuck me I told myself I wasn't gonna cry this episode. I lasted just over 6 minutes.
Gilthwixt
2024-03-26 02:23:03 +0000 UTCLihaku (the buff military guy) is in love with Pairin.
chaosdreamer
2024-03-26 02:22:16 +0000 UTCI always thought the reason was because Maomao's mom (Fengxian) is the old lady's daughter. I don't think it is stated in the anime, but the old lady is Maomao's biological grandmother. To her, Lakan is the bastard who knocked up her daughter, ruined her life, and then abandoned her.
GraySun YellowMoon
2024-03-26 02:20:54 +0000 UTCYeah, you miggt be right. It just seems dumb to me. Especially since to keep her whereabout a secret, the number of people that could have contact with her must have been really limited making her even more isolated and probably really lonely.
bblala
2024-03-26 02:20:13 +0000 UTCTwo possible reasons: 1) because she wanted to punish him for abandoning Fengxian; and 2) she’s Fengxian’s mother and didn’t want to entrust either her daughter or granddaughter to him. #2 is the only reason I can think of as to why she flipped out when he finally returned, and why she never let him take Maomao with him, no matter how much he offered to gain custody of her. She might’ve realized that he didn’t mean for this to happen as he lay sobbing in the mud during a rainstorm, and that’s why he wasn’t blacklisted completely, but she wasn’t going to trust him beyond that.
Coatl45
2024-03-26 02:12:42 +0000 UTCFrom the earliest bacstories we see of Maomao, she was, so she could have changed that decision whenever she wanted in the past 10-15 years. And even now, she didnt want to let him see her.
bblala
2024-03-26 02:08:56 +0000 UTCStill, I feel like if they didnt know the reason why he left is simply because they didnt want to know or hear an "excuse", which is dumb considering that this not what the woman that is suffering wants.
bblala
2024-03-26 02:07:35 +0000 UTCThat’s Pairin, the nymphomaniac.
Coatl45
2024-03-26 02:05:32 +0000 UTCYes, and the reason granny didn't tell him about her was because she assumed he just abandoned her and was trying to keep her living in the house a secret.
Huemon Nottabear
2024-03-26 02:04:35 +0000 UTCshe was not the boss at that time
Zack
2024-03-26 01:51:58 +0000 UTCThe reason why bones grow back up to the first joint even if they are torn off until the age of two is because bones are made of cartilage until that age. Cartilage has a higher regenerative ability than bone, so even if it is torn off, new bone can be created. Specifically, bones grow actively until the age of two, and cartilage cells inside the bones divide to create new bone.
Kumeufuta
2024-03-26 01:43:14 +0000 UTCI think they wanted to avoid controversy. I mean the flashback made clear there is a SIGNIFICANT age gap between the strategy guy and meimei Also isn’t meimei the one that the buff military guy was into?
StorySmith []
2024-03-26 00:18:18 +0000 UTCI can attest to the finger thing. Chopped off part of my index finger while cutting veggies for work years ago. It grew back, but it has to be above the nail
B
2024-03-26 00:15:38 +0000 UTCaccording to a quick google search: "Chopped off fingertips regrow if the slice occurs before the edge of the nail. Any farther down the digit, and you're probably out of luck."
tanaya
2024-03-26 00:12:58 +0000 UTCbro maomao's mom got bought out she *wanted to* dance for meimei and was sad she wasn't able to
tanaya
2024-03-26 00:06:14 +0000 UTCIntersting that they didn’t add MeiMeis words “Big sister, If only you were honest from the start. I really wished this was resolved, before I started to have hope” this is from the manga. But in anime this part was little different.
Mango
2024-03-25 23:39:55 +0000 UTCYou asking about why she hid Mao Mom? I think she was just salty that he (almost) ruined her business and he DID ruin her best courtesan and then just left her for 3 years. They didn’t know the reason why he left, only that he got the courtesan pregnant and left. That’s my theory.
Mango
2024-03-25 23:35:58 +0000 UTCI already miss this show and Frieren... T_T
Rin Okumura
2024-03-25 23:26:19 +0000 UTCi THINK that lankan bought out meimei too as basically a caretaker for maomao's mom. its very possible that im wrong though.
Daniel Borrego
2024-03-25 23:21:06 +0000 UTCYeah this was clearly depicted in both this and prior episode. Both the large adult finger and little stub are shown.
Sekraan
2024-03-25 23:17:19 +0000 UTCIts her finger AND Maoamos finger to curse him
Kreative
2024-03-25 23:11:44 +0000 UTCI need a heavy explanation on why that old lady hid that information from Lakan. It doesn't even look like the girl hated him, so what is the reason from separating them for so long
bblala
2024-03-25 22:56:10 +0000 UTCIn the manga there was a note for her dad in a compartment under the rose but he didn't see it. They simplified things for the anime and made the rose the whole message.

Sergi Garcia
2024-03-25 22:34:29 +0000 UTCHorimiya would be a great replacement option for this show! It’s a perfect show for a duo reaction!
Earphone Jack
2024-03-25 22:24:42 +0000 UTCThe anime did this moment justice! This is the moment where everyone sees that Lakan isn’t the villain we thought he was and it’s done so good! I’m also glad this show got a second season! My favorite anime of both the fall and winter seasons!
Earphone Jack
2024-03-25 22:24:13 +0000 UTCThat wasn't quotation marks, btw. Maomao's mother did send her own finger and Maomao's little finger from when she was a baby, as a form of curse in her moment of despair and rage. You can see that her little-finger is a bit malformed, but it has mostly healed from that time.
Olemgar
2024-03-25 22:19:02 +0000 UTCMaomao's mom wanted the two Nobles who were fighting over her to stop because it was jacking up her price. So she came up with a plan to lower her own buyout price to practically 0 so that Maomao's dad could afford her. But then, to her knowledge, the man ghosted her after she'd gotten pregnant and had his child. Meanwhile he had been sent off for 3 years by his father because of a "disgrace" in the family.
She'laar
2024-03-25 22:18:42 +0000 UTCApothecary Diaries is definitely an anime that requires careful attention to subtitles and actions that happen. I do like that the anime doesn’t just spoon feed you what happens and you do have to make some inferences, it keeps you invested in the show instead of just expecting it to be given to you. If it weren’t for Frieren, this would definitely be my undisputed number one of the season
Coreyy
2024-03-25 22:02:59 +0000 UTCSHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!!!! HAS NEVER BEEN MORE APPROPRIATE UNTIL THIS MOMENT!!!!
DarkGodHao
2024-03-25 21:55:35 +0000 UTCGranny is the ultimate villain in this.... she could have solved all this by letting lakan know when he came over
hyakimaru dono
2024-03-25 21:55:24 +0000 UTCHope the dangers in my heart at least get its chance at a poll probably the best romcom anime out
asset
2024-03-25 21:55:06 +0000 UTCYeah. Lakan didn't know that Maomao's mother was there until now. You can tell by how persistent he was to get close to Maomao, if he knew her mother was still in there, he would storm through Verdigris to meet her.
