corallydeer's review against another edition

emotional funny lighthearted mysterious relaxing fast-paced

• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.5

Another great volume! This one simultaneously felt a bit faster and slower since there weren't events that were quite as intense as the last volume but we covered a longer period of time (with small time skips). It was so great getting to see

Maomao back in the Inner Palace to support Consort Gyokuyo with her pregnancy

and to see

her finally take Lakan head-on

. Can't wait for the next volume!

Another great volume of Apothecary Diaries. Volume 7 picks up from the cliffhanger of volume 6 and we do receive some answers while having the wider mystery still open. What I appreciate most about this manga is how the author melds character work with engaging mysteries. That is much the same in this volume though it definitely leans more on characters.
