However, a significant chunk of its fan base has been left on the sidelines… until now. Exciting updates from Crunchyroll and Netflix have confirmed that Western viewers generally prefer dubbed versions over subtitled ones. Yet, “Lord of Mysteries” hasn’t made the transition to English dubs just yet. But here’s some good news for dubbed anime enthusiasts (or fans of dubbed donghua): they now have a reason to rejoice!

Lord of Mysteries is derived from the popular Chinese web novel by Yuan Ye, titled Lord of the Mysteries. This tale, reminiscent of the isekai genre, takes place in a Victorian-era steampunk universe where certain individuals acquire enigmatic supernatural powers, becoming elusive beings known as Beyonders. The narrative centers around Zhou Mingrui, a character who hails from our world, and his journey to understand the fragments of memories he possesses after being reborn in the deceased Klein Moretti’s body.

Lord of Mysteries Is the Hidden Gem of Summer 2025

The anime adaptation of “Lord of Mysteries” debuted on June 28th. This year has already been filled with premieres like Season 2 of “Solo Leveling”, “Kaiju No. 8”, and “Dandadan”. Yet, despite upcoming releases such as “Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle” and “Chainsaw Man: Reze Arc”, “Lord of Mysteries” remains a strong candidate for boasting the finest animation of the year.

As a casual observer, I’ve noticed that donghua often gets overlooked by regular anime viewers. However, this Spring saw the release of “To Be Hero X,” which proved to be a massive hit among those who ventured out of their comfort zones and gave it a try. “Lord of Mysteries” is another stellar example of what donghua can bring to the table for anime enthusiasts. If you’ve been hesitant to dive in due to waiting for an English dub, get ready for one of the most thrilling paranormal murder mysteries this year has seen, featuring some of the best animation of 2025. In my opinion, “Lord of Mysteries” is undeniably THE hidden gem of 2025.
