Those consorts just can’t function without Maomao! I don’t blame them. I would also not be able to do anything without Maomao once I had a taste for her efficiency. She seems to make life a whole lot easier. Especially if you live in a palace and people are trying to assassinate you a lot….
I just saw that the second season of Ron…. Has been announced and I’m really happy about it. Have you ever done that thing, when you can’t decide something, so you just blurt out a decision to see if you feel disappointed. I do that pretty regularly. I just don’t have very strong feelings about…
I have two episodes to catch up on for this one. And I have to say, I loved being able to watch two episodes one after the other. I suspected it all along, but I really think that the Apothecary Diaries would be a very fun show to binge once enough episodes have aired. The…
At least the last two episodes of the season are going to be a two-parter. It’s like they knew that I like those better! YAY!
The Apothecary Diaries are really moving along. I didn’t realize this story would come so soon. It felt like a long time before we got any insinuations about Jinshi’s background in the manga but maybe that’s just because I was reading as they came out and they had long breaks between volumes. I’m actually going…
We are having a pretty great season of anime if you ask me. And that’s a bit of a bad thing for a show like Ron Kamonohashi. I really enjoy this show and I was pleasantly surprised by it. But I can’t deny that it’s light as air. It’s a sort of make you smile,…
I don’t know if you guys remember, but I had a few little reservations about the Apothecary Diaries animation when the season started. I didn’t dislike it at all, but I had been such a big fan of the manga that I couldn’t help but compare the two and in some ways preferred the latter….
Ron Kamonohashi’s Forbidden Deductions is just a light little bit of silliness and really that’s part of what I like about the show. It doesn’t take itself seriously but it does still deliver a technically well-made and put-together little story. However, it doesn’t delve too deep into things. That might change with time but seeing…
Hmmm, does this count as a filler episode? It is in the manga but then again, a lot of episodes that are considered filler are also in the source material. That’s not something I can go by. It was a bit of an odd episode all things considered. I’m not sure how I’m going to…
The original Sherlock Holmes canon is made up of 56 short stories and 4 novels. James Moriarty appears in only two of those stories. 2 out of 60 and he’s not overly present in those either. And yet, when we think of Sherlock Holmes we immediately think of Moriarty. That’s quite the impact!
I just love Maomao’s over-the-top dislike of Jinshi. I think I’ll use her shivers of disgust as a header gif whenever possible and build up a little collection of them. It’s going to be great.
So it’s not just a two-part episode, it’s a three-parter! That caught me by surprise. Since I have all this extra time, sure I must have guessed who the culprit is, right? Well yes, of course I have… And I might not tell you the right one in this post because I don’t want to…
I’m so glad the anime introduced a lot more people to the Apothecary Diaries. I remember that I never had much luck getting people to read the manga before the show was even announced but now those same folks are eager to talk about it with me and it makes my day. It’s a story…
Wow the season is really flying by! Also, yay! It’s another 2 part episode. I really do like to have a bit of a pause before we get the reveal. A lot of the Ron Kamonohashi cases are a bit out there and you won’t necessarily be able to figure it out from the clues…
I just saw that the Apothecary Diaries is slated for 24 episodes and I’m a little stoked, I won’t lie. I did have some trouble adapting to the…adaptation… but now I really look forward to every new episode and the fact that I will get to see so many of them makes me pretty happy!
