The Apothecary Diaries has not kept its viewers waiting for long, with a continuous feed of new content following a successful second season. But for fans seeking Maomao and Jinshi’s next steps, the news of season 3 was inevitably more enticing. Thankfully, the anime’s latest update confirms not just The Apothecary Diaries season 3, but a movie too.
Spotted on the official website for The Apothecary Diaries, season 3 isn’t just on its way, but is coming in October 2026. This means it’s less than a year away at this point, meaning viewers won’t have to wait long. As an added bonus, the movie will come in December 2026, to adapt an original story from its creator.
The Apothecary Diaries Season 3 and Movie Set Their Release Windows
With The Apothecary Diaries season 3 bringing Maomao and Jinshi outside the palace walls, it’s no secret that the fans are excited to see more of the novels adapted next. However, the movie adaptation will let the anime’s mystery trappings, as Natsu Hyūga’s series is a perfect genre-match to close out the year.
With season 3 set for October 2026, and the movie set for December 2026, The Apothecary Diaries fans’ hopes were more than justified after the latest preview event. It’s the most stable and consistent of the current new-gen prestige anime, and for good reason.
Season 3, like the rest of The Apothecary Diaries so far, will release in two courses, with its second half releasing on April 2027 for the second anniversary commemorative trailer.
With the anime having adapted roughly a third of the base novel source material, there’s still plenty to come even beyond the next installment. Season 3, like the rest of The Apothecary Diaries so far, will release in two courses, with its second half releasing on April 2027 for the second anniversary commemorative trailer.
The Apothecary Diaries Season 3 Will Bring Maomao and Jinshi Out of the Palace
The synopsis confirms Maomao and Jinshi will interact more with the common folk as disaster looms for the country, including the mysterious influence of a certain shrine maiden. It will bring them out of their previously comfortable setting but allow more mysteries to be explored, including that of Maomao’s background.
“The ultimate mystery flickers in her eyes.”
