How many episodes of The Apothecary Diaries season 2 are there?

While some anime has bucked trends recently with shorter seasons, The Apothecary Diaries season 2 feels refreshingly old-school: it's expected to last for 24 episodes from start to finish, just like its first season. 15 episodes have aired to date.
Typically, anime is split into two equal parts (often called 'cours'), with each one dropping in a different part of the year In this instance, however, The Apothecary Diaries should run into the summer season without breaks or interruptions.
