Knocked Out with a Surprise "Indirect Kiss"! Grinning at the Blushing Maomao & Bold Jinshi in the Anime "The Apothecary Diaries"

Jinshi's (CV: Takeo Ōtsuka) "advances" are becoming increasingly bold... In the anime "The Apothecary Diaries," the scene where Maomao (CV: Aoi Yūki) is flustered and blushes at Jinshi's "indirect kiss" is absolutely swoon-worthy.

In Episode 12, Maomao, who had been dismissed from the rear palace, was working in the pleasure district when she unexpectedly reunited with Jinshi. Jinshi had assumed that Maomao disliked working in the rear palace, but he seemed relieved after hearing her true feelings. Then, trying to touch Maomao, Jinshi pressed her, saying, "Just a little would be fine, right?" and "Just one hand. Just the fingertips."

When Maomao reluctantly conceded, "Just the fingertips, okay," Jinshi gently touched Maomao's lips with his finger and then kissed that finger. With his face bearing her lipstick, he smiled gently at her, and Maomao couldn't help but turn bright red, exclaiming, "It's going to transfer...!"

Fans were swooning over the "indirect kiss" between Maomao and Jinshi, with comments like "Maomao's reaction is absolutely adorable," "It made my heart flutter," "Jinshi-sama's smug face after kissing is perfect!" and "Give us more!"
