"A lowly servant like you..." The pressure from his deep voice is off the charts! Shivers and a storm of praise for Jinshi's quiet rage in "The Apothecary Diaries"

The anime "The Apothecary Diaries" is based on the light novel of the same name by Hyuganastu. It has been adapted into manga by two different publishers and is a massive hit, surpassing 57 million copies in circulation across the original novels and comics, including digital versions. The mystery-solving drama led by Maomao, who ends up working as a "poison taster" in the rear palace, along with the comical interactions between Maomao and Jinshi, have gained immense popularity and become a huge talking point. The TV anime has aired through its second season, and the third season will be broadcast in two split cours, with the first cour scheduled to premiere on October 2, 2026, on the NTV network. Additionally, the series' first-ever feature film, "The Apothecary Diaries The Movie: Bouhi no Hihou," is scheduled to hit theaters on December 11.
