11:15 - 12:05 The Apothecary Diaries 3-4
The Apothecary Diaries
Plot Summary: The series is set in a fictional country modelled after Ming-era China. Maomao, a young girl who works as an apothecary in the red-light district,
is kidnapped and sold to the Imperial Palace as a servant. However, she
still retains her curious and eccentric personality and plans to work
there until her years of servitude are over, without drawing the
attention of anyone. One day, after hearing the rumors that the
emperor's children are critically ill, she begins to investigate the
cause, using her experience as a pharmacist, and successfully solves the
mystery of their illness. Even though she intends to remain anonymous,
her actions eventually catch the attention of an influential eunuch, and soon finds herself solving various mysteries in the royal court.

1:40 - 2:40 Blue Eye Samurai ep 1
Blue Eye Samurai
Plot Summary: During Japan's Edo period (17th century), half-white half-Japanese swordsmaster Mizu quests for vengeance against four European white men who illegally remain in Japan during the closing of its borders by the Tokugawa shogunate. Meanwhile, Princess Akemi, the only daughter of the Daimyo of Kyoto Lord Daiichi Tokunobu, tries to convince her father to approve of her marriage to Taigen, a young and accomplished Samurai
of humble origins. Mizu arrives at the Shindo Dojo and requests a
meeting with its master to procure the location of Heiji Shindo. When
the request is denied Mizu battles the better part of its students
including their prized Samurai Taigen and wins before obtaining the
information Mizu requires and leaving Taigen dishonoured. The latter knew
Mizu in their childhood as he and a group of children used to taunt Mizu's mixed race appearance.
2:40 - 4:40 PLUTO ep 1-2
Plot Summary: Pluto follows the Europol robot detective Gesicht in his attempts
to solve the case of a string of robot and human deaths around the
world where all the victims have objects shoved into or positioned by
their heads, imitating horns. The case becomes more puzzling when
evidence suggests a robot is responsible for the murders, which would
make it the first time a robot has killed a human in eight years. All
seven of the great robots of the world (the most scientifically advanced
which have the potential to become weapons of mass destruction) seem to
be the killer's targets, and the murdered humans are connected to
preserving the International Robot Laws which grant robots equal rights.
Thumbs up for finally showing Pluto but thumbs down on watching the 1st ep of Blue-Eyed Samurai. I saw the first episode on Youtube a while back and didn't really think it was all that great. Also we should watch the final 90-minute episode of Attack on Titan pretty soon too.
