The hit anime Kusuriya no Hitorigoto ( The Apothecary Diaries ) continues to air on Japanese TV. With that, we have the preview of episode 20 revealed for fans.

Synopsis:

The story takes place in a large country in the middle of the continent. Mao-mao is a young woman who works as a pharmacist in a Hanamachi (a neighborhood with several brothels). She is kidnapped and sold as a servant to the palace. But she hides the fact that she is a pharmacist; she works very quietly, waiting for the new year to arrive. One day, however, she hears a rumor from a coworker that the emperor's sons are dying one after another, and using her pharmacy knowledge, she discovers the cause.

Kusuriya no Hitorigoto (The Apothecary Diaries) began publication in October 2011 in Shousetsuka ni Narou and began publication in physical format in August 2014.
