The Apothecary Diaries Sequel Announced with Teaser and Big Promises
So, here’s the big news I couldn’t wait to talk about— The Apothecary Diaries is officially getting a sequel! Yes, that’s right. After a gripping and emotional end to Season 2, the anime is continuing with a brand new chapter, and a super teaser trailer is already out to prove it. As a fan of the series, this announcement honestly feels like a gift.
Let’s rewind a bit. Season 2 wrapped up just recently, and it ended with some of the most intense plotlines we’ve seen so far. The Shi Clan rebellion, Lady Shenmei’s betrayal, and the heartbreaking yet powerful ending involving Loulan—all of that led to Jinshi fully stepping into his identity as Ka Zuigetsu, the Emperor’s younger brother. Meanwhile, Maomao, after being kidnapped and then reunited with Jinshi, now finds herself unable to remain in the palace. Her journey continues outside, which opens up entirely new storytelling possibilities.

But the sequel isn’t just a vague promise. We got a teaser PV that hints at what’s to come. One powerful scene shows Jinshi receiving a mysterious note from Loulan inside a fortress, with lines suggesting the story will move to new lands. The visuals—fields of golden wheat and new characters—make it clear that the world of The Apothecary Diaries is expanding, and so is its intrigue. There’s even a brief exchange between Maomao and Jinshi, teasing that their partnership is far from over.
Adding to the excitement, we’ve heard directly from the original author Natsu Hyuuga and the voice actors. Natsu-san admitted to feeling the pressure of continuing the story beyond what was originally planned, but she’s committed to making it even more captivating. Aoi Yuki, the voice of Maomao, said she felt sad when recording ended but is thrilled about the sequel—and honestly, so are we. Takeo Otsuka, Jinshi’s voice actor, also thanked fans and promised more fun content to come.
While there’s still no confirmation if the sequel will be a Season 3 or maybe a feature-length film, the format hardly matters at this point. What does matter is that the story is far from over. We’re going to see new political challenges, mysterious events in the northern farming villages, and most likely, deeper emotional layers between Maomao and Jinshi.
So, for everyone like me who’s been obsessively watching and rewatching this beautifully crafted historical drama, this sequel announcement is the perfect reward. Whether you’re in it for the suspense, the slow-burn romance, or the complex court politics, The Apothecary Diaries is clearly not done impressing us. Let’s just hope the wait for the next chapter won’t be too long!
