watching The Apothecary Diaries makes me *so* nostalgic for Saiunkoku Monogatari... i don't know if it would hold up all that well in 2023 but i remember feeling like it was one of the most overtly, unabashedly feminist pieces of media i'd ever seen back in like 2006. Shuurei was such a good protagonist and a stand-out Houko Kuwashima role too <3

#back in the mid 00s you really could make a political fantasy shoujo anime that was like 80 episodes long...#it was so funny that it was like a light reverse harem situation but shuurei just wasnt really concerned with the guys lol.#too busy with Politics and Intrigue to be all that interested in romancing any of the 100 smitten bishounen shes surrounded by
