The Apothecary Diaries Season 2 Episode 20 Reaction – 薬屋のひとりごと 2期 20話 海外の反応
What is up, guys? Back into another reaction to the Apollo Carry Diaries. This time with season 2, episode 19. Um, hopefully you guys can’t hear it, but I’ve had to put my Oh, I’ve lost the episode. Apologies. Um, I had to put my fan on because uh I’ve tried recording the intro. I’ve got to like 30 seconds and it’s just been way too hot. um in combination with the weather and mostly it’s my light wearing probably not a good idea wearing a dark t-shirt. Um but yeah, I think my t-shirt kind of captures the heat emanating from my light as well. So it’s just really was unbearable. So hopefully you can’t hear the fan behind me, but um I did test it out and it should be okay. If you guys can hear it, I do apologize, but um yeah, looking forward to this episode. Was a really great episode last time. Um, I really thought the kind of dream, well, it wasn’t a dream sequence, but like the whole sequence of them kind of putting their dreams out there in the mask and their goals and their wants. Well, that was really interesting how some kind of fell to the bottom of the ocean or the bottom of the lake, whatever you want to whatever it is. And then because they would go down, they would then kind of fuel the fires, for lack of a better word, of the dreams of the other people whose masks did stay on the fire. Thought that was actually really cool. Uh, obviously the end of the episode was quite nuts with Ma Mau and the little boy getting caught by um that woman that looks a lot like the old emperor, just as creepy. Hopefully she’s not as bad of a person, but um she looks like she could be. Yeah, do let me know what you guys think about this one down in the comments. Leave a like on the video if you guys do like and subscribe to the channel if you do want to keep up to date. Not sure why it’s so quiet. Uh, I did also find um that this is going on break again in a few weeks time, which really sucks, especially with the the kind of timing of it. Like the timings of the break this season have really not been great. They’ve been during like the most integral parts of of the show. Nothing you can do about it, unfortunately. But um yeah, it really sucks. Yeah, we were trying to figure out what the why there wasn’t a patch growing in the in the farm, weren’t we? Then we ended up figuring out that these are the guys behind the guns. Lola So is this the real lowland? Is so there is a real low land. Damn. Jesus. Oh that just getting slapped to [ __ ] What are they meant to look like? Oh, interesting. This obvious lies. But so is this Jesuit? I’m a bit confused. I did bring up last episode if Loland’s even a real person. I imagine that’s she honestly I’m not sure if I was in this woman’s position. I’m not sure I trust this this new girl to be [ __ ] my opponic. I I was spoiled on this and I didn’t even notice the fact that she she was not in those scenes with the um with the girls getting gifts from the people they massaged which is rare for you man but yeah again from the from this woman’s perspective I Not sure I’d take I mean beggars can’t be choosers I guess but I’m not sure I’d take this random new girl to be my polo carry. Like what what’s the trust? What kind of trust do you place in this person you’ve just found sneaking about figuring out little secrets? It’s already got off to a bad start. And I come across pretty evidently. So she is Lan and her fake name she and Sui Ray’s real name she and her fake name’s Surray. Okay. Sorry guys, my nose has been quite sniffly today. Well, not sniffly, but blocked. I’m going to breathe through. Yeah, I can assume they they checked for smoothness. [Music] Are you all right? Doesn’t quite work out. Yeah. If only you’re a little bit more patient, he would have probably told you. Oh, sorry, [Music] guys. I guess I took that scene from the preview a bit too lit. Like, well, not literally, but very much looked like she was in a prison cell, that shot from the preview. And I guess she is imprisoned in a sense, but it’s not quite as um harsh as I thought it would be. I think that that’s a logical conclusion and uh again fits into that what I mentioned earlier of um other people’s dreams and wants of perhaps revenge or different types of comeuppants and such getting mixed into this pot of war which may not be their their goal per se, but it kind of it aligns with them to a certain degree. So, their kind of wishes end up melding into this one big war wish from someone probably very high up. Probably that horrible looking woman. I I don’t know. Might be talking nonsense. Yeah, that’s a that’s a good question. What happened to the older policy? We could assume they probably got poisoned. I imagine that you get quite a few replacements in this line of business, but um I do want to know specifically what happened to the last one. Can’t be that far away. Holy crap. Jesus. I was not expecting us to be that far away. Didn’t feel like it when she was taken here. This isn’t the worst place to be locked up, is it? She fall out now. the expression is so different. I guess that really like I wouldn’t say she’s like got multiple personalities or anything, but she definitely like has to definitely kind of maybe feels like she is just such a different person. It’s crazy. Kind of like you split yourself into two entities. She’s so nice and smiley and and upbeat and lovely as she and as Lolan. She’s literally just like a blank slate. She’s nothing. Haven’t seen anything from this person called Lolan, have we? No sign of any personality or anything. I think she said it very well that she’s a doll. She literally is a doll. Just unfazed, unmoved. Yeah. Axe. the actions that her mother um not sure that is her mother to be honest but she may uh yeah controls her like I scar the steam all coming from these people. Oh, this place is horrible. This kind of reminds me of um an area in Nine Souls. That was really disturbing. The vibe in that room was horrible. Imagine the smell was too Is that her in the bed? Oh god. I hope she’s not. If she was, I hope that’s not her way. Probably is though. This kid is very adorable, isn’t he? I like him a lot already. Okay, we’re back. He’s trying to pay back your [ __ ] all the mess you made. How dare Yeah. Heat. Okay, everybody was even M. You can’t really argue with anything he’s saying, unfortunately. And like I I kind of you very much understand where Lan’s coming from with this as well. So I mean, he’s a dad looking out for his daughter. So it’s like you totally understand what he’s saying. I’m not going to hold this against him. It’s harsh, but in essence, what he’s saying is kind of true. So, and here comes the complete opposite. Just just the absolute smoothness of uh a grandad. Smooth, calm, collected. understandably. So, as I said, He’s getting absolutely bored right here by old man, isn’t it? Listen here, son. Calm down. That’s the thing. I think like it will be more much more effective when he will calm down because we know he’s a pretty genius guy. Respect time. Yes. Here we go. We’re moving the mountains for this. I mean, I know it’s it’s like it’s a betrayal to the to whatever. I don’t know specific to the names and stuff. I know. I know it’s like bigger than just getting Mau back, but it does kind of feel like if it was just for Mao, would would Ginshi bring an army? I mean, it’s kind of romantic in that sense, isn’t it? It’s like he’s he’s raising an army. Everybody here is raising an army and uh going to bring an army to bring Ma back again. Obviously, it’s bigger than that. There’s a traitorous stuff going on here, trying to take over the empire and so on. Trying to get back at us for revenge about the old emperor and so on and so forth. But like I said, I I kind of like it from the view of we’re just doing all this [ __ ] Just get M back. Everything in our power. Uh, you know what? I’m going to sort out the timer. Only got a minute left. Are they signatures from people that are going to help or you? I sure was. Like an infection, like a zombie bite. Is he is he is he fine? You got to assume his skin no key prince prince. And I think that now confirms for people that weren’t 100% sure that this is the son of the emperor, the prince, which was I think pretty obvious. Uh again, it wasn’t confirmed or anything, I don’t think, but I think it was pretty obvious um been actually well I guess I guess confirmed there I guess. But yeah, thank you guys for watching. Awesome save at the end of the episode there. I love that. Again, you can understand why that hand gets so irritated and angry, but um yeah, I loved when uh the old man stepped in and just [ __ ] got sorted out, picked up. We’re mobilizing armies against these guys right now. Uh this should be really interesting actually. I wonder if we’ll see any cuz it’s not very of not very often. It’s not not at all scene, I don’t think, show any kind of army kind of violence or anything like that yet, have we? I mean, we saw the assassination attempt, but it’s probably the closest thing we’ve had to something like that. Every other kind of attempt to someone’s life is usually quite um in the shadow is kind of done in a vague uh way and tried try to be quite secretive and hidden. So, um something like an army battle is very out there for this show, isn’t it? I doubt we’ll see it and I kind of hope we don’t cuz I’m really not a big fan of that stuff. I’m a big fan of Berserk, but especially the early kind of war kind of portions of Berserk, I really didn’t like very much. It just felt like Army A versus Army B and just quite boring. Oh, the toad. Is that frog back? Is that frog back from all those episodes ago? Um, yeah. Thank you guys for watching. We’ll look at that preview again in a minute cuz again, a lot going on there. But, uh, really good episode today. Um, as usual, not 100% kind of it. It always takes a little bit of of a while and maybe a second watch to digest fully what was kind of going on, especially towards the start of this episode with um all of this uh the family kind of business stuff with uh Shenme, I think her name is. Um I I don’t really fully understand what relation she had to the emperor. Um she obviously had some she I don’t really know. I don’t really know is my uh is my answer to that. But um yeah, there’s uh some reason why I do want to go back to this. So she’s like she’s okay with Lam who I think is the her grandchild. So her daughter had relations with someone and that made Lan and then her daughter also had relations or her son should I say I think it’s her son actually isn’t it? Her son then had relations with another woman and that was uh Su or Shiui who now goes by Su the names. Yeah, I think I got that right. Um and she obviously is not too happy. I’m not sure which order that went, by the way. Uh, but yeah, she’s not too happy about Suie slash Suiren. The the names are absolute me. Apologies, but she’s not happy about this woman’s existence. Um, I definitely again do need to rewatch this scene to kind of fully get that through my head, but I kind of get the the general gist of the relationship um between all of those characters. And again, it’s just kind of sad seeing Lan just again just being as she said, as she summed up brilliantly, just a doll. She’s like no expression. Her expression doesn’t change. And the only time she moves or reacts or does anything is when she’s kind of moved to do anything like that. I think she summed up really well there in that scene, didn’t she? Uh it’s also it’s not surprising cuz they are actually very similar, these two uh Mau and uh we got Ray, I guess. Um they are actually very similar. So it’s no surprise that they actually get along decently well. But um I’m hoping we can kind of amp that up perhaps even more in the future. I mean, we saw last week especially, we had a pretty cool scene with Su and Mau, but I feel like their relationship can actually kind of might even be quite as close as to Mao and Shiu’s Shu/ Lan. Again, the names just make it even more confusing. Um, but it might even get as close as that relationship, which I think would be cool to see. I really like the little boy as well. It’s a shame to um to kind of see that. I think his mother was some kind of like sex worker here or something. Again, this room just [ __ ] stacked in. You could you could smell this room through the [ __ ] through your TV, couldn’t you? It’s awful. Um, so yeah, kind of sad to see such a cute and innocent child kind of right outside the door to that. Something I was going to mention is that this girl in the back really looks like Suiren, but um I didn’t mention it cuz I’m not sure it has any kind of relevance, but she kind of looks quite a bit like her. Uh, and yeah, love this scene at the end as I did as I did mention. Awesome awesome stuff here. Uh, I did want to go through the preview just one time quickly just to see if we can notice anything in this scene here. Looks looks like she’s going to like poke his eyes out or something. Looks like Freddy Krueger. Yeah. Yeah, she does kind of give off Freddy Krueger vibes to be honest. Creepy uh creepy woman again. She’s got those uh diddler kind of Freddy Krueger old emperor kind of vibes about her to be honest. Um there there wasn’t honestly from the preview there wasn’t too much I could kind of comprehend as to what was going on. This stood out to me. This kind of faced expression change here from Land. The first time we actually see uh as Land kind of not just looking like a doll, not just looking straightfaced, actually smiled. The biggest thing that stood out to me here. Other than that, we don’t really see too much that kind of gives us any help. We get Surray Suré get abused again, of course. But I do wonder I am kind of thinking I did mention this earlier in the episode that it’s not would this woman really trust Ma Mau as her new polo carry? And I think there might be something like going on with that. feel like maybe Ma Mau might try and poison her and try and do something. We classically see from like season one where people would try and poison um the uh the woman um forget the name from now. The curt not curtans are they the um consorts I think they’re called. Uh again the ter apologies about my terminology and stuff. It’s just awful. um might see her do something that we’d usually see her kind of figure out and see her try and like uh discover in season one. We might actually see her come up with that stuff, which I think would be really cool. Kind of move in perspective. So, I think that would be really awesome to see. Not sure that will be the case, but I would quite interested to see that. But yeah, do let me know what you guys thought about this episode down in the comment section.
