Maomao - Blog Posts

maomao’s dedication to ignoring jinshi’s real identity is truly inspiring. the woman who has solved multiple murders based on minor clues in the environment keeps looking at every sign pointing to jinshi being royalty and going “damn, this could add up to something. good thing I can’t do math!”

DANGER! DANGER! Who let Maomao and Senku experiment together?!

Наконец-то тархун 🧪

she's so fucking pumped about drinking poison i love her

Character analyses' are so fun to read because people have so many different thoughts about a single character and how that character has changed and will change in response to the environment and people around them.

Take Dazai Osamu for instance-there are so many different interpretations of his character and they figure all of that out from minute details in the novel/manga he's in. Like no, I wouldn't have figured out the connection between his ability to control his heartbeat and his humanity but thank you for taking the time out of your day to point that out.

Or someone from a completely different fandom, like say, a similar detective character who also goes around solving cases because they've inherited that trait from a mentor they deeply respect. MaoMao from Apothecary Diaries! There are numerous analysis' about not only her and how her past (being raised in a brothel) deeply affected her emotional regulation, but also posts about other people in the fandom and the symbolism behind every scene and visual metaphor used.

But in both fandoms, their respective members won't always agree with each other.

And it's just such a joy to see what people's thoughts are and their feelings about a character/characters/anything really that they're incredibly passionate about. Even if I don't always agree with them. It's just so nice to see for me. So this is a post for all who write analysis' on character's. You're doing gods work keep it up!!!

Wasn't gonna take long before I draw these losers

I hated them at first cuz Jinshi pissed me off but I love them so much now,please get married and live happily ever after

Knowing this is the last time all of these cuties will be able to act this carefree and be like this together is so bittersweet, end of a precious era 💚

maomao is my favorite "not like other girls" style protagonist bc for one shes a girls girl through and through. to the bone. and two she's just a weird little freak. absolute lunatic. they have the whole "omg she's actually beautiful and everyone falls for her when she's all made up" trope but the punchline is that she does not fucking want to look like that. she actively puts dirt on her face every day bc she does not want to be perceived as attractive (mostly out of fear of being used for sex work though at the same time she has the utmost respect for women who do sex work like she grew up in a brothel those are her sisters). she's Sherlock level smart and solves every mystery so fast but goes "well thats none of my business. anyway back to testing poisons on myself" she has the 2nd most powerful guy in the nation head over heels in love with her and is like "man this guy is weird around me what's his deal. I guess he's fine though because he gives me rare medicines and has no dick" fucking ICON i love her. also she once slapped someone so hard they fell on the floor. 10/10

Their entire relationship can be summed up by a poor jinshi tag.

Jinshi can't sleep (based on that meme LMAO)

Imagine if she becomes the empress. All the political enemies thinking it be so easy to poison her.

Poisoner : " watching her eating a dish " hehehehe let her suffer , I have added the most poisonous substance I could find

Empress Maomao : drinks the entire thing , (ep 6 animation) , cackles madly , twitches , and asks for another plate

The theme is neurodivergent anime main characters that would cause hell together

This is how people gain followers on Tumblr in a nutshell.

Also, he just picked her up and now she lives rent free in the corner of his mind. Actually, he's the one paying rent because he's giving her the ingredients she desires.

I love that Jinshi was like, “this girl is the weirdest person I’ve ever met. I’m keeping her!” That is the kind of instant and complete acceptance we little freaks need.

finished ep 8 of the apothecary diaries

Maomao: Not to worry. I have a permit.

Court lady: This just says, "Maomao can do what she wants" with master Jinshi signature.

maomao when every important figure in the empire keeps asking for her help

Absolutely valid. go off Maomao.

maomao and her dedication to never discovering anything about jinshi's personal life

fake idgafer final boss

basically the second half of apothecary diaries LN

my favourite part of the apothecary diaries is jinshi freaking out over maomao's impulsive freaky tendencies (but he's lowkey into that)

jinmao in a nutshell:

Maomao ✨ No wonder Jinshi fell hard for her
