English Dub Review: The Apothecary Diaries “Raw Fish”
Overview:
Gaoshun requests Maomao’s help in solving an apparent poisoning case. Meanwhile, Jinshi deals with an unwelcome visitor who’s taken to lingering in his office.
Our Take:
I love that Maomao has become the unofficial poison expert and anytime someone has any sort of issue with a toxin she’s brought in to try and solve the case. It probably helps that she usually is spot on and clears it up quickly but I still find it fascinating considering the period. In doing all of this, however, she might have picked up a little more attention than she bargained for.
I could be interpreting the conversation between Jinshi and his unwelcome visitor incorrectly but it seems like this man has taken a liking to Maomao. If that is the case I imagine we are in for a very interesting couple of episodes. It has become very clear that Jinshi is interested in Maomao but he has never had anyone else take an interest in her before so I think that if I’m right this could be fun. But I could be wrong about how the conversation is going, either way, I think Jinshi has a battle of wits on his hands.
Do we know if Hulu will be the only entity to have the dub, or if it will be on other platforms, too? The show in general is definitely going to be on multiple platforms.
