English Dub Review: The Apothecary Diaries “Caravan”
Overview:
The caravan stirs up excitement in the inner palace. The merchants bring all kinds of goods. However, something gives Maomao a bad feeling.
Our Take:
There are new ladies in waiting coming to join the inner palace and one of them seems to be as quirky as Maomao. She is also into spiders and all sorts of creepy crawlies. But there is only one Maomao and her unique skills of observation are going to come in handy again it seems. Gyokuyou is pregnant but only certain people are aware of this so what the merchants are selling starts to raise some questions.
They’re selling garments that would be comfortable for someone if they were pregnant. But no one should know about the pregnancy, which makes it a bit alarming. I haven’t quite figured out why it’s alarming yet. What’s the big deal if people know she’s pregnant?
I might need to brush up on season one again because there’s only one thing I can think of. If I remember right the Emperor doesn’t have a son yet and I imagine the first woman to give him one will be favored. This could put Gyokuyou in danger so we have a mystery to solve!
"There are also other characters that come and go (also owned by the Warner Bros. Discovery conglomerate media company)."
Huh. Is that just referring to other characters from the show itself, or is this implying that the new season is going to have cameos from other WBD IPs
