The monthly Maomao Day visuals are always adorable—celebrating the 22nd of every month with new artwork keeps fans engaged between seasons. Maomao and Jinshi sharing mikan is so cozy; the warm indoor scene perfectly captures winter comfort. Seasonal visuals add so much charm to series—these illustrations give fans something special to look forward to each month. Can't wait for Season 3 to see more moments like this; October 2026 feels far away but these visuals help bridge the gap.

The 22nd of every month is "Maomao Day," meaning it's time for another seasonal visual from The Apothecary Diaries! December's visual features Maomao and Jinshi cozying up indoors around a warm kettle as they peel and enjoy mikan.
