The previous episode ended with Xiaolan dropping an important item from a delivery. In the scene, we see the girl's distress at her mistake and the desperation of the eunuch responsible for delivering the ice to Loulan, one of the high-ranking consorts of the Granada Palace, who had requested a frozen treat to cool off in the afternoon. Determined to solve the problem, Maomao has a brilliant idea and enlists Jinshi's help.
Maomao prepares fruit ice cream for Loulan
After the frog scene, which occurred in episodes 11 and 12, the tension between the protagonist and the false eunuch is more evident than usual. However, Maomao sets aside what happened between them and asks to borrow the kitchen and utensils to make fruit ice cream with the leftover ice and help Xiaolan. Jinshi takes advantage of the situation to ask for something in return: whenever someone speaks to the girl, she must listen until the end. It becomes clear that the condition imposed was designed for the moment when he decides to reveal his true identity and position within the Imperial Palace.
Furthermore, Jinshi also asks Maomao to wear the hair ornament he gave her at the garden party in the first season. This shows how well-structured the script for Kusuriya no Hitorigoto is. The anime doesn't neglect past situations and revisits details discussed in the previous season, such as the hair ornament itself.
Furthermore, the mysteries that emerge throughout the narrative connect clearly and cohesively. However, there are still open-ended situations in the anime that will likely be resolved soon.
Kusuriya no Hitorigoto highlights Gyokuyo's pregnancy
Gyokuyo, consort of the Jade Palace, is about to have a baby. Maomao discovers it may be a breech baby. In other words, a child with its head facing upward, a position that can pose risks during delivery.
Concerned for her consort's well-being, Maomao suggests the presence of Luomen, her adoptive father and skilled physician, who was exiled from the Imperial Palace, making him a criminal. Ultimately, after considering the matter, Gyokuyo agrees and accepts Luomen to deliver her baby.
The animation in Kusuriya no Hitorigoto doesn't disappoint. Beyond the vibrant colors, there's attention to detail in each scene. Just as Maomao considers her father as one of the doctors available to help his consort, a light from the window slowly illuminates her face as she reflects on the situation.
Finally, Luomen is invited as a temporary doctor to the Inner Palace, and as usual, there's a cliffhanger for the next chapter. At the end of the episode, the new Imperial Palace eunuch, who appeared in the previous episode, stands in front of a tombstone. From this, we can conclude that he will have more prominence from now on.
Each episode of Kusuriya no Hitorigoto presents a mystery or unexpected situation, maintaining an interesting and unique narrative pace. Besides the sarcastic, funny, and insightful character, the animation, by TOHO Animation , stands out. The use of vibrant colors and character designs truly catches the eye. Furthermore, the supporting characters are also well-developed, sparking charisma and interest in the viewer.
