Jinshi has still not learned to clear up misunderstandings, even when we get to the point of the "'frog' incident".

I like to think she knows exactly what's she's doing and acts oblivious to mess with him lol

I prefer to think in this specific situation, she has no idea what the problem is, cause the misunderstanding is funnier

I would call it adorable.

Spoiler She has no idea he is attracted to her abd has reason to think that because she doesn't know that he still has his plumping.

Smart is the new sexy

Well he was prideful man Thinking that every women could fall for him Until she came🤣

@@thatwasmethere3526 and after she came, he came.

I think Maomao is cute too..i mean in the intro she looked gorgeous!

we can only pray that they end up together 😤

😂🤣

Whoosh.

I kinda want them to make a plushie and/or figurine of shocked chibi Jinshi.

Poor dude just full-on bluescreened. And I laughed so hard at it that I was almost crying.

The chibi figures against these elegant Chinese palace backgrounds kills me every time.

Wasn't more like 3 S+ concubines that she knew?

@@cameronjensen9397 Nah, he could only choose one. He got with the dancer, I think.

@@neiacormae9550 Ah, he had a choice of three, but could only pick one

@@cameronjensen9397 For his own safety. Just one had him in a daze.

It only gets more hilarious when he learns the truth.

Frankly, that IS something she would do. 🤭

If you watch the previous episode her friend from when she was in laundry duty is the one who told her about it. But as we can gather she didn't tell her what specifically it meant, just that someone who gives her a hairpin and is in good enough standing can take her home

It's her daily comedy and/or soap opera and she refuses to miss even a single show!

@@chriswihulu _When you think about it, concubines in the Rear Palace really don't have much to do at all._ 💀 _Poor lasses,_ wish I could introduce video games to them.

This woman is my spirit animal i love her sm she lives for the drama xD

I wonder if Jinshi's friend explains it to him.

​@@Eleanor_Ch _He better._ 😂 _That boi finna jump off the wall if he doesn't!_

yeah mine too can't wait for rest of it. Especially the splendid frog

​@@MrDibarathere is going to be one extra eunuch, he's gonna take his seeds out.

These new wave of Chinese inspired anime are so interesting to watch!

Just wait until you meet her birth father. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree but she looks like a genius relationship guru next to him. (But he's into war strategy like she's into poison and medicine, so...)

@@PrecureJunkie Could you mean to say that they both can be coined as autistic-coded in a sense(i.e. the intense interests with specific things/practices/hobbies/etc., combined with a general to slight lack of social awareness[beyond just the cultural boundaries and symbolic gesturing presented here])? (honestly asking, as someone on the Autism spectrum, even one still slightly influenced by the more subtle tropes still associated with autistic/autism-coded characters in media[even if I don't usually partake in the discourse of what can count as specifically autistic traits in a fictional character, good, bad, or kinda touch and go] to really make a fairly educated judgement that doesn't rely solely on[or eventually draw back to] my own personal experiences.)

Remember she thinks Jinshi's a eunuch so Lihaku's the only one that can leave the palace in her mind.

@@michaelwilliamybarra2409 I don't know about her father being autistic, but he is definitively something as he is explicitely shown to be unable to recognise faces and only enjoying the company of like three people in his whole life, and that is including Mao Mao who can't stand him

@@ananas_6029 Her father has prosopagnosia (face blindness). He sees most people around him, especially strangers, as having the blank black or white "faces" of Go stones, while the people he's familiar with appear to him as specific shogi pieces. The only people he's able to recognize as having "human" faces are Maomao and her mother.

Gyokuyo is just there to thrive on the chaos and I love her for it. XD

​@@LittleHobbit13She's pretty much the fans at that point 😂

we will see that maybe next time because our concubine explains to him what actually happens. She gets a kick out of watching these two

she is a treasure hahaha@@LittleHobbit13

Imo it’s the best laugh ever

Jinshi's like: "DOES NOT COMPUTE. SYSTEM SHUTTING OFF..........."

*Error.* *Your PC ran into a problem* *and needs to restart. :(*

A Maomao caused the program to stop working correctly.

It was indeed romantic and a night of bliss, it simply didn't involve her.

And he kept it up for *_so long,_* too.

Jinshi.exe has stopped working.

She will tell the T-shirt: "Aww! Thank you! I love you too T-shirt!"

Knowing her, she'd probably be more like, "How and when did a T-shirt get to know me long enough to develop an attraction to me?"

Maomao: “Someone made that shirt thinking Jinshi has a thing for me. Is he even aware of what the shirt says?”

It was great! I doubt it will be in the current season, but when it comes I will very much enjoy the frog situation.

俺 can be used in close circle of people so he can be just comfortable around her

Poor lad was traumatized 😂

He thinks she hooked up with Lihaku as thanks for helping her get back to her side of town, and she didn't explain until afterwards that she simply gave him a referral to one of her sisters, who is a high class preformer and Preformer, so she technically wasn't wrong when she said it was a night he didn't forget

Even if does, at this stage, she doesn’t have any feeling for him yet. And even later in the volumes, it’s a slow process, though she does start to see him in a more favorable light.

I'd say it's only evil if she knew what she was doing. She pretty clearly does not. At all. 😁

in this show, the pin is more of a 'under my protection' kinda pin as we must remember that she got pins from two concubines

And that hairpin is actually much more important then you realize

@@andmos1001 how so

@@davidyouel8422 Think about it, all clues if you watch the show has been revealed

Hopefully there is. It’s been received pretty well so far so I hope they make a second season

It’s confirmedly going up to 24. Second season not being talked about yet, but the reception was far from bad. Things generally looking pretty good right now.

Você precisa assistir Sousou no Frieren... Esse é incrível, mas Sousou no Frieren é melhor

Bom gosto, irmão! Mas Frieren está próximo, se não melhor.

Frieren is the best anime, Maomao is the better protagonist

@@lpemkz Posso concordar.

@@lpemkz I differ a little, Frieren is also considered the best protagonist along with Maomao. For me the best anime is Frieren and the second best is The Apothecary Diaries.

It’s not high pitched alright, but it’s far from “not feminine”. She’s just kinda listless.

I can't believe you actually described her voice as boyish and unfeminine! It is neither of those things. She doesn't have the helium pitched voice that other anime female protagonists have, but that hardly makes her sound less like a girl.

@@Passions5555 Said it all, brother!

It's a valid interpretation. Not to mention fairly understandable, considering she spent most of her childhood watching her mother waste away from venereal disease. That might very well put someone off the very concept of sexuality.
