Lord of the Mysteries

The first episode was kind of hard to understand, the pacing was a bit too fast in the first 3 episodes. But the world building is extraordinary. The episodes made me intrigued to continue forth. The donghua is action packed and comedically wel written. The fact that our mc Klein moretti pretended to be a god while not even being an beyonder was crazy but creative plot wise..

I haven't read the novel; this is just a review from someone who only watched the adaptation. The show gave me more than I expected-thrill, action, drama, and of course, mystery. It's not your typical isekai anime, but rather a world of complexity built in an outstanding way. There are dramatic and pivotal moments in the final episodes, and pure enjoyment throughout the entire series.

Of course, there might be flaws-some of which I don't agree with, like the excessive use of CGI, the Chinese language being considered bad, or that for those who read the novel, the pacing felt too fast. However, what I do agree with in terms of criticism is that the series is complicated at the beginning and requires the viewer to pay close attention.

Overall, the rating for this season (Season 1) is 9/10.

I have heard very positive comments about this novel a few monts ago saying its "peak fiction" and it has one of the best world buildings,lore and power systems with in depth execution of its unique and mysterious settings and after watching the anime i must say its beyond my expectations.the visuals are out of the world and animations are smooth like butter and every frame feels like an wallpaper.the combat is dynamic.it has not yet reached its climax in season 1 but from the episodes i have seen its going to be one of the best animations and inspire china to invest more in donghuas.

The animation is amazing; all of the character designs look lovely, and the plot is progressing beautifully. Of course, the story is amazing. The mix of the art style and story is nothing like you've ever seen before.

The soundtracks and sound effects are equally impressive, enhancing the immersive experience.

This thrilling supernatural steampunk mystery starts a bit slow in order to fully develop the world, but then it dives deeply into mystery and supernatural elements.

Overall: The series wastes no time in pulling viewers into its shadowy steampunk world. Thanks to a unique blend of "one shot & full animation" techniques, the donghua maintains a fluid, movie-like quality throughout each episode. It's a bold stylistic choice that elevates the storytelling and reinforces its moody, atmospheric tone.

Lord of the Mysteries is a story that I, sometimes think, if really written by human hands, because it's godly. It's the best piece of art mankind could ever create. The story is profound and otherworldly, unlike the other best one I have seen so far. For me it's an emotion I could never let go of. It found me and collected me, yet shattered me .Some people think that Vol 1 is a slow take, sometimes they find it boring, but mark my words, once you read both books , this very volume will become so precious to you that you will read it again and again and cry and be filled with emotions, for its where everything started and its where Klein was the happiest. I truly feel so honored that I've read this masterpiece of fiction and I feel so chosen when I find people who had not read it and are curious abut LOTM. I hope the people who are looking for a story and emotions like this, find this. Best of luck to the newbies, hope you recover after this.
