Maomao as presented in this OP: Alluring seductress
Maomao in the series: Gremlin
Yet still works for Jinshi
Cat*
She's a total poison gremlin
1. Maomao as seen by Jinshi.
2. Maomao as seen by anyone else.
@@tomasdiethelm6553 cats are gremlins
THIS IS LITERALLY MY FAVOURITE OP OF THIS YEAR
Yeah but It's from last year
OH WHATEVER I STILK LOVE IT XD
@Kazooya same. It's so good!
Go watch solo leveling op or gushing over magical girls OP this is good but it’s from last year
Last year
They did a good job with making the part of her arm where she tested drugs on herself look like flower petals. I love that detail at 0:51.
ngl it still looks like drugs I can't see the flower
Reminded me of a cherry blossom tattoo
Big spoiler:
I dont think that's maomao's arm. I think it's meant to be her mother's arm.
@@silentfrost2855 nah, her mothers arms are never said to have burns/rashes in the LN.
SAME I LOVED THE DETAIL!!
I have to say it, maomao was already so cute without makeup/freckles but when she dresses up….she blows everyone out of the water 🥰 such a boss lady
HEAR MY SPOTIFY
I actually think she looks uglier with the make up
Why should she be cute?
@@goansichishig5292 Its not a should, she just is.
The freckles are makup
HANA NI NATTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
HEAR MY SPOTIFY
relatable
Given how Maomao's portrayed in this OP, I'm willing to bet Jinshi either drew or directed it.
This is one of my favourite comments i have ever read! 😂
That would explain why she's not ingesting poison XD.
If you check the lyrics you'll see this song is just Jinshi falling for her so hard that he is almost obsessed.
For anyone curious, the flower at 0:45 that doesn't wilt is the meadow buttercup. I'm not well-versed in flower symbolism, but maybe it was chosen because despite being fairly common, it is regarded as a fairly beautiful amongst those who grow buttercups. It's also fairly hardy, capable of taking harsher European winters and continental summers alike - notably, it blooms in winter, which is when most other flowers wilt. That matches the beauty Jinshi sees in Maomao - a commoner without notable looks, yet capable of establishing herself and surviving in a harsh environment that doesn't care much for her place, thus more beautiful to him than the delicate, precious flowers of the Rear Palace. The flower is also poisonous/irritating to herd animals, yet is used medicinally by Native Americans, which could tie into her job as an apothecary.
This also ties in fairly well to the lyrics, where the first verse has the singer (presumably singing Maomao's POV) question what's wrong with hiding in the shadows and being a common flower (i.e. avoiding the attention of those above you) yet in the second verse, the singer (now likely embodying Jinshi) says that he will anyway water the flower, and that it should appreciate its own beauty (which is very different from the other, flashier flowers).
A good guess, but it's actually creeping wood sorrel. Note that the leaves aren't shaped like those of a buttercup, but are more clover-like. They bloom in autumn, and a notable characteristic of theirs on display here is the tendency to close their flowers and leaves when crowded by other plants; they only unfurl in direct sunlight. The metaphors you pointed out still work regardless: they're both hardy, edible, unassuming wildflowers.
merci a tous les deux pour vos précisions ❤
@@girlintheicysky I need a whole video essay of the use of hanakotoba in this show
It's definitely wood sorrel, but on top of that, it seems to be where she got her name! It's common name in Japanese seems to translate to "cats paw" though I could be wrong. It also plays into the story of her parents that we learn later in the season and is used in herbal medicine, supposedly as a cure for snakebites.
wow learn sum new !
This is legit one of the most gorgeous and beautifuls OPs in anime.
HEAR MY SPOTIFY
1:00 i can't help but replay this part, the singer has such a powerful voice and idk why but it fascinates me.
This opening really captures Maomao's beauty. 🎉
this is what jinshi sees whenever he looks at maomao
The drop going so hard was already enough to consider this Op amazing,but combo that with those seductive looks Maomao gives and it becomes a masterpiece
The music is one of The Apothecary Diaries greatest strengths.
All the characters have a piece of particular music assigned to them. The music is used often to set the tone for many of the scenes.
One the best uses, is the entrance of the new Pure Consort in episode 14. A haunting melody that sets the stage for the entrance of the mysterious Consort Loulan.
And of course, the themes songs for the front, and rear halves, of the first season.
The first half theme song (The one in this video) is fast paced and exciting. The second half theme song, is emotionally moving.
A wonderfully written anime worth watching. My personal favorite of the season.
The anime is also very faithful to the light novels, which is nice to see. No huge changes, no attempt to sanitise the story
they didn't get 3 of the best composers in the industry to work on a single soundtrack for nothing!!!
Japanese Shakira singing be like:
ikr!!
The first ep i said this😂😂😂😂
Lol, just what my boyfriend said
Yes! I knew I wasn’t the only one thinking that!
LOL for real haha
This anime has to be one of my favorites this season, Maomao is just too good
By far the best opening of the previous season. I look forward to watching the anime one day. Hopefully it's good.
It is! 👍🏼
Ooooh trust me you'll love it!
It is great!!!
I got hooked after a single episode
I'm gonna say it. This opening would be really good for testing OLED screens 😲 the colors really pop and have great contrast with the dark background.
how is this show not a nominee on any of the award categories?
HEAR MY SPOTIFY
Not eligible for Crunchyroll yet
Its gonna be on next years awards - the nominee year for this years' awards started in fall 2022 and ended w summer 2023 (its very strange). Fall 2023 is next years award
Cuz it’s not historically accurate…?
@@luciferseventh1679 that has nothing to do with awards. But anyways, The Apothecary Diaries takes place in a fictional land in fictional time.
ONE OF THE BEST MCs PERIOD‼️
Thanks ryokuoushoku shakai for this beautiful op ✨
HEAR MY SPOTIFY
I cant help but feel like this opening is some sort of foreshadowing about Maomao's path.
The transition from the freckled plain Apothecary, into the astonishingly beautiful princess dressed in a dress made out of the night sky seems to carry a lot of meaning.
The transition goes as if maomao gives up her own freedom in the form of that light, as if she is giving up from the apothecary life and becoming a noble, Jinshi's true identity as the "moon prince" might be related to she being dressed as the night, so they both complement each other.
Maomao marriage with Jinshi is pretty much confirmed, its too late to go back now and she knows it. but the thing that holds her back is the fact that she feels uncomfortable being a noble and all the troubles involved with it. She knows she will lose her freedom once she accepts her place as the La Clan Princess and also as Jinshi's wife.
But im pretty sure, once she fully accepts her position, she will in fact be a wonderful princess and shine bright just like in the opening.
cuz otherwise the opening doesnt really fit much with the first season 😂
I'm sorry but this OP is way better than the new one
HEAR MY SPOTIFY
Most first OPs tend to be better than their second ones
@@ma.2089 There's probably a bit of nostalgia filter there
the second one isn't even bad, this one is just so, SOOO good so the second opening is a huge downgrade 😭
one the best openings of the decade
Glazing
The "Japanese Shakira" meme went so far that even the author committed tax fraud.
I dont remember getting this hyped up over an anime opening for years
The singer has similar voice to Shakira, goes perfectly with the OP
HEAR MY SPOTIFY
yess i'm glad i'm not the only one who can hear it
I also thought the same thing!
Glad others agree
Maomao literally doc. House.😂
The greatest anime OP ever made. Hands down! The visuals are so full of life while the combination of Ryokuoushoku Shakai's beautiful singing voice and that rocking music gets me hyped up. 100/10!
Also, I Love how Maomao is seductive *_here,_* yet a total gremlin in the actual show lol.
She dancing like a mermaid just for an op
i literally never even once skipped this opening, i even replayed like 4 times once
An *ABSOLUTELY* superb opening we have here!! 👏👏
Jinshi rn: *nose bleed*
Song + mind blowing art + flower symbolism =
So each flower represents a different person. And mao mao blooming moreso.
MaoMao is in fact named after woodsorrel ("cat's paw"). Ad a few other flowers in the OP are associated with some of the female characters in the series. Not sure how many, though. But I spotted at least 4.
HEAR MY SPOTIFY
@dmitriyk.2890 There's the four flowers that represent the Emperor's concubines - peony (Gyokuyou), bellflower (Lihua), lily of the valley (Lishu), and an iris (Ah-Duo) - and the other three flowers represent Maomao's big sister figures from the Verdigris House (you see this flowers again in episode 12).
For the Three Princesses, their flowers are a plum blossom (Meimei), magnolia (Pairin), and a chrysanthemum (Joka).
@@Kuroro2345 I am sure balsam(Fenxiang) should also be there.
Just finished this anime yesterday and one of the most BEAUTIFUL anime op I’ve ever seen!! The final episode when she dances on the wall was beautiful!!🥹💖
1:10 POV: You're a tasty poison about to be tasted.
I've been reading the English translations of the light novels and oh boy some of the more private scenes between Maomao and Jinshi can be a bit spicy! Near the end of the 5th light novel Jinshi makes an overly aggressive advance towards Maomao and have his way with her. But he under estimates Maomao and her years of education from her Older Sisters at the Verdigris House and instead she turns the tables on him.
Easily one of the best OPs ever made!!!
Best opening of the season, very fitting for such a wonderful Anime
When the beat drops, beautiful
This, ladies & gentleman is one of the best anime openings in recent years. *Holy s**** - This landed on my Spotify list immediately after the first time hearing.
Not like the ones that you add for "hmmm the anime was pretty good, and the opening makes me feel things"-reasons.
Just the pure music was love at first sight (or hearing if you want to). And the visuals are stunning without spoilering anything.
This can hold on against the big ones like AoT OP1+2, FMAB OP1, several Naruto Shippuuden Openings, Black Clover OP3+10, Assassination Classrom OP4, and even most of Bleach OPs without any effort.
say whatever you want, however, me and my sister proclaimed this opening as the first anime opening we would never skip no matter what
0:51 part is the best ❄️✨❤️
I really wish they didn't change the opening this one is just too good
I haven't seen such a good opening in a while. i was hesitant to watch the anime now i'm gonna give it a chance for sure
Nose ustedes pero para mí Mao Mao Sama con esa danza robó no sólo mi corazón sino también mi alma
Saludos desde Santa Cruz Bolivia
The vocals in this are so beautiful
Ryokushoku Shakai se lució con este opening
HANA NI NATTEEEE
The animations is so pretty and beautiful! Love it!
Cette opening est épic et unique en son genre🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊
The first opening of part 1 is the best. They should’ve kept this opening for the continuation.
I love this op. Mao Mao one of my favorite characters in anime
Pure mastercalss
This is literally my favorite intro ever it made the anime so unique and it suits it but after they changed it it made it basic intro but anime is fire 🔥
Be a flower
you know it, i really like your profile picture, where did you get it? ive been looking forever for that art, and i cant seem to find it? please tell me the artist
Increible como este opening paso desapercibido por los animes populares con sus openings randoms.
No, no pasó nada desapercibido, fue de los más populares en la temporada de otoño del año pasado
I love the symbolism
HANA Nİ NATTEEEE
Holy compression. I wouldn't have expected this on Crunchyroll's main channel.
when the a anime opening matches better with the music than the official video clip
This just hits so good oml
When they say "gasoline straight into my bloodstream", this is what they meant
This might be my second favorite op of all time behind Rumbling
I love The Rumbling too
опенинг шикарный
10/10 loved it after the first time of listening to it!
These songs are AMAZING 😊😊😊
MAOMAO 🔛🔝‼️
Best OP of the year❤
The visuals😻😻
Me encanta este opening, me encanta este animé, ya lo he visto dos veces ❤
I love this anime. It's truly bitter sweet
Would´ve had no problem if this would´ve been the opening for every season
Is a good opening
They say the whole op was in his head that's why he looked at her like that in the end😂
serving in the rear court 😍💅
STRIGHT FIRE TELL THIS DAYYY 🔥🔥🔥
WE MAKING IT OUT ALIVE WITH THIS ONE ‼️‼️🔥🔥🔥
This anime is Metamorphosis if she didn't follow the guy to the karaoke at the store
So I love this show but... watching this op, if you knew nothing else about the show, it would make it seem like it's a weird historical magical girl show. Like Maomao should be yelling out "apothecary power make-up"
This is gorgeous
One of the BEST ops!!!!!!❤

HANANINATTE!💥💥💥💥
I love the dresses ❤
Siento que Shakira está cantando en japonés
Песня просто супер,
Я слушаю ее с самого выхода.
Аниме просто потрясное , ааа ааа , как выразить все мои эмоции. Скажу только, ЭТО ПРЕКРАСНО!!!!!
What an amazing song
Shame I can’t buy this on iTunes same for the first opening song, atleast I can buy the ending songs
HANA NI NATTEEEEEEEE
I STILL LOVE IT ❤❤❤❤🎉😊
damnnnn this maomao hit dif haha
First time I heard this, I swore it sounded like Wagaki Band. Hindsight being 20/20, I can see why I originally thought it might be. To me, at least, this sounds like the kind of thing they’d play. Even though it’s not, and I know that now, this is still the best OP of 2023, and remains top tier throughout 2024.

Here’s to a good summer 2024 anime season, by the way.
Si jinshi viera esta intro se muere desangrando por la nariz 😂😂😂😂😂
this op gets me so hype bruuuyhhhh
legendary openning...
This is one of the bestest, glorious,marvelous anime opening, I've ever seen!😁👍💖🔥🌟
