Outstanding Presence Even in Just One Second! Hearts Flutter at Imaginary Jinshi's Sulking Face in "The Apothecary Diaries"

Even with an appearance of only about one second, the sulking Jinshi (CV: Takeo Ōtsuka) has incredible impact! In the anime "The Apothecary Diaries," the sulking face of Jinshi that Maomao (CV: Aoi Yūki) imagined captured viewers' hearts.

Maomao was taken away from the rear palace and arrived at a village deep in the forest. To participate in the village festival, she had her hair styled by Shisui (CV: Asami Seto) and took out a hairpin. The hairpin was one that Jinshi had previously given her as a gift. When Shisui asked, "Hey, if I asked you to give me this, would you?" Maomao imagined Jinshi's sulking face and refused, saying "No."

After that, Shisui advised, "(Maomao's hairpin) is a good hairpin, so don't treat it carelessly. It might get stolen." Maomao thought, "Then I can't sell it off," and "The guy who gave it to me is persistent, so it would probably come back..." while thinking of Jinshi again.

Although Jinshi only appeared for a brief moment, his sulking appearance seems to have left an impression on many viewers. Reactions poured in such as "He's such a child lol," "Jinshi-sama would definitely sulk if she gave it away lol," and "Grumpy Jinshi-kun."
