I don’t understand how people are saying the animation was bad, the character acting and movement is god tier!

This was by far the best episode. I loved the moment where Maomao snapped at the servant girls and also the scene where the concubine was reminiscing over her deceased child. Also nice to see Jinshi be useful for once and give Maomao the chance to actually help out the concubine. For now I still like his introverted guard a lot more than him.

i was waiting for when maomao will teach those ladies in waiting a lesson about how they're mishandling their lady's health. and i don't think one needs to be a genius to figure what words of wisdom maomao shared with lihua to ensure the emperor's interest in her doesn't wane lol

This show reminds me of both Nobunaga no Chef and Mushishi. I think something that puts this one behind those is the lack of a fantastical element. There's nothing a I particularly dislike about the show but without at least one layer of removal the reality of how dogshit medicine actually was in medieval...everywhere, it just constantly gnaws at my mind. Like for the aphrodisiac episode where she makes chocolate (and it works) instead of grinding up rhino horn and tiger penis.

Great episode, those ladies-in-waiting got what they deserved and Maomao helped lady Lihua recover. Wonder what she whispered in her ear at the end? Lmao I can only think of one thing (or two heh) but I shall not say.
I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats.

6min it and i am furious that she doesn't stand up for herself

like FUK this bitches they have no authority when emperor asked Maomao to take care of her health not being luxurious with food, if i were in her shoes i would have said maybe i half to tell emperor ur interfering with my job, but she is being total wimp

EDIT1:
after the makeup thing she slaps the sh out of her, she should have done something sooner

EDIT2:
Maomao whispered something spicy instructions to he ear lol

This still bothers me from the first episode. She should've gone to Lady Lihua and given it to her straight. Maomao let a baby die just so she wouldn't have to stand out. It just doesn't sit right with me.

Even the Emperor himself known her name? Fucking hell she's become famous faster than Speed himself!

The melodrama when Maomao found out about the banned powder and started smacking the girls around was a little too much for me. Straight up someone's power trip fantasy come true.

4/5 episode. Jinshi still has no penis but all the bitches love him. smh.

I'm not sure why the other servants are getting in the way of Maomao caring for the concubine if the emperor has ordered it. Shouldn't they also be punished for obstructing orders? It's strange that women are crushing so hard on the eunuch when they're fully aware he's lacking something... important... It gives the impression they're trying to whitewash eunuchs, a practice that was extremely cruel in ancient China. I'm not entirely comfortable with this. I think ill drop this one...

I thought Maomao could use some arrogance against these ladies in waiting. But she didn't use just some arrogance. She went full throttle on them. Damn!

The wrath of Maomao is swift and FIERCE!!!! Those attendants deserved more than the one bitchslap. They were literally killing her in their ignorance.

The scene of Maomao collapsing on the bench and Lithua comforting her was very touching.

Oh no, I'm a complete fan.



Though it's kinda strange how apathetic she was to the idea of being beheaded and only asserted herself when Jinshi showed up.

Maomao brought some food for Concubine Lihua, on Imperial orders, but her ladies-in-waiting threw it off.

Oh the creeps she gets from Jinshi 🤣🤣🤣. Scary Maomao is cool.

“It’s considerate people like him who become good husbands. He is a eunuch, though.” 🤣🤣🤣

Maomao gave Concubine Lihua an idea, something that she learned from the women in brothel. Sigh, she can’t use it because of her lack of assets.

Concubine Gyokuyou says she’s relieved to have recovered from sleep deprivation. Let me guess, it’s because of the Emperor. And something Maomao said to Concubine Lihua, at play.

I'm honestly not surprised that Maomao has a side like this to her seeing as she's already been pretty imperturbable. The short scene of Lady Lihua with napping Maomao was so cute!

Insane animation direction and execution here! Every single movement was vivid and organic - shoutout to the scene where Maomao and her bestie are eating ate the table. I was hypnotized by how fluid that was.

I totally understand some people might not love it as it lacks a bit in detail (shading and such), but the whole point of this episode was to show caring and nursing, which was very much achieved with each tender movement animated by the team. Congratulations to everyone involved!!

Wow. I am floored. After watching several anime the past days, none of them clicked. This anime is the one I am looking for! They went god-tier on the 4th episode. This is Acro Silky (Dandadan) level of goodness. I guess I'm going to finish this anime in 1 weekend!
