Doctor Detective Episode 4 Delayed

Ameku M.D.: Doctor Detective, also known as Ameku Takao’s Detective Party, is a new anime broadcasting this season, but unfortunately, fans will have to wait a bit for the next episode. The series is streaming on Crunchyroll.

As the title suggests, this is a medical mystery series — that means anime fans who enjoy this type of story have nothing to complain about this season, as we’ve got this one and The Apothecary Diaries airing now.

The Medical Anime You MUST Watch This Season (That Isn’t Apothecary Diaries)

Winter 2025 features Dr. Ameku Takao’s Detective Karte, the exciting OTHER medical anime out this season that is definitely worth watching.

The fourth episode has been delayed for a week, and is not set to premiere on January 22, 2025. It seems that this delay was planned beforehand, though, as what will be aired instead of the episode is a special program featuring Ayane Sakura (who plays Ameku). It is not confirmed if this special will also be released on Crunchyroll.

What is Ameku M.D.: Doctor Detective?

This series is originally a novel written by Mikito Chinen and illustrated by Noizi Ito (character designer for Shakugan no Shana and also one of the artists who worked in Sakura Wars). It is published by Shinchosa in Japan, but it hasn’t been licensed in the US. It has spawned two manga and now an anime.

The story focuses on Ameku Takao, director of the Department of Investigative Pathology at a general hospital. Her department is needed when others cannot diagnose a patient. Because of the nature of her job, she is often involved with mysterious deaths and murders, and she loves solving those mysteries. This might be a good show for Dr. House fans.

Dr. Takao Ameku is the brilliant yet eccentric director of investigative pathology at Tenikai General Hospital, in charge of diagnosing patients the other hospital departments cannot. However, due to her love of solving mysteries, Takao also gets involved with mysterious deaths and murders, all while dragging along her assistant Yu Takanashi in her various adventures.
