A Shiver at Jinshi's Face Awash with Jealousy! "The Apothecary Diaries" Jinshi's Hilarious Reaction to Maomao and Lihaku's Relationship

Jinshi (CV: Takeo Ōtsuka) becoming yandere out of jealousy!? In episode 19 of the anime "The Apothecary Diaries," the way Jinshi gazes resentfully at the interaction between the military officer Lihaku (CV: Kenji Akabane) and Maomao (CV: Aoi Yūki) is downright monstrous.

Jinshi is a powerful eunuch in charge of the inner palace. In front of the consorts and court ladies, he always maintains a gentle demeanor and is blessed with stunning beauty—seemingly the perfect individual—but sometimes shows a different side when it comes to Maomao.

In episode 19, Maomao and Lihaku have a secret conversation regarding a series of incidents. Upon hearing Maomao’s deductions, the easygoing Lihaku enthusiastically slaps her on the shoulder and says, "You're a lot smarter than you look!" However, in the background, there is one shadow watching them enviously...

That shadow is none other than Jinshi, emanating a gloomy aura from behind a pillar. When he reveals his grudge—saying, “It looks like you’re having fun...” in a chilling tone—Lihaku quickly senses it and hurriedly leaves, saying, “Well, I'll be off then!” Even afterward, Jinshi can't hide his jealousy, commenting, “You seem to get along with that military officer, don’t you?”
