Quite a bit of emotions thrown into this episode. Interesting.

It also has a realistic protrayal of how certain characters respond to illness and how fragile humans can be. Kids has to face reality and see what is real. Kansyori's wife felt the wrath of an illness that triggeed a lot of emotions.

I fell bad because I actually enjoyed this 3 ep but 12 ep is pretty short for a manga which is written since 2008 and I don't see a second season coming.Well looks like reading the manga gonna be the only option.

The story actually look interesting, the characters are bot the best but can easily get got developments

I actually am vibing with the series so far, idk why the ratings are so low aside from amazon messing up the subtitles. Hiki seems interesting. This series is obviously more popular in japan than in the West, so hopefully we get some more anime, although my hopes arent super high. Idk how well the anime is being received in the East, but im enjoying it.

This would served better as the first episode instead of the third.

It's intriguing, I'll give it that. Obviously Sano's Father weighs his responsibilities as one of the Eight Immortals and tasked to find a replacement Queen Mother, more than being at his dying Wife's side.

@karrai right?? I genuinely don't understand why it's so low...the story is intriguing and interesting. The characters are great and it also has some goofy moments. I love the bits of lore we have gotten so far. 5.83 is so low and it clearly is underrated imo

@karrai hahaha we definitely should lol. I usually don't pay much attention to the target audience tbh. This may sound surprising but The Apothecary Diaries is a seinen and not a shoujo! What is OHSC by the way? :)

@karrai sometimes publishers take some liberty and change the target audience of a manga... but in Japan the manga is published in a seinen magazine! And I still haven't watched OHSHC, I have heard about it, it's in my watchlist :D

@phantomfandom Agreed! It through me for a loop cause I knew it wasn’t ryu from last episode b/c the eyes, but you don’t know what’s happening until you see mini mc
