We fans waited years for this series, and when Lord of Mysteries finally aired in 2025, it was a blast. Grey fog, tarot meetings, ancient rituals, every scene was too damn realistic. Everything felt like we were solving a puzzle with Klein himself.
Season 1 ended on September 13, 2025. That left us fans with a question: when is Lord of Mysteries Season 2 Release Date? The good news is the second part is confirmed.
When Will Lord of Mysteries Season 2 Come Out?
Lord of Mysteries Season 2 is officially set for 2027. It was revealed at the Tencent Video Anime Awards in 2025. This announcement also confirmed that Lord of Mysteries Season 2 will have 30 episodes, a big jump from Season 1’s 13.
For reference, Season 1 ran from June 28, 2025, to September 13, 2025. Going by this pattern, Tencent might aim for another summer release. But as of now, no exact month or day has been shared, only the year.
To bridge the gap, Tencent has also planned a special episode in 2026. Another one is listed for 2029, building hype between main seasons. Chinese listings like Douban also show 2027 as the confirmed broadcast year, so the timeline matches across sources.
10-Year Plans for Lord of Mysteries Explained
At the 2025 Tencent Anime Awards, executive producer Ma Yankun presented a 10-year roadmap for Lord of Mysteries. This plan stretches all the way to 2035, ending with a theatrical movie to wrap up the novel’s story.
Different outlets summarized it slightly differently, but the timeline is the same:
| Year | Release | Key Info |
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | Season 1 | 13 eps • Vol. 1: Clown (Ch. 1–213) • Aired Jun 28–Sep 13 |
| 2026 | Special 1 | One-off episode to bridge gap before Lord of Mysteries Season 2 |
| 2027 | Lord of Mysteries Season 2 | 30+ eps (split-cour) • Vol. 2: Faceless (Ch. 214–482) • May touch early Vol. 3 |
| 2029 | Special 2 | Extra content between Lord of Mysteries Season 2 and S3 |
| 2030 | Season 3 | Likely Vol. 3: Traveler (Ch. 483–732) |
| 2032 | Season 4 | Expected Vol. 4: Craftsman (Ch. 733–919) |
| 2033 | Season 5 | Likely Vol. 5: Mystery Pryer (Ch. 920–1086) |
| 2034 | Season 6/7 | Vol. 6–7 arcs: Bizarro Sorcerer + Miracle Invoker (Ch. 1087–1394) |
| 2035 | Final Movie + Special 3 | Movie finale + one special to close adaptation |
Some reports list 7 seasons + 3 specials + 1 movie, while others say 6 seasons + 2 specials + 1 movie, but both agree on the anchor years. The main takeaway? Lord of Mysteries Season 2 is locked for 2027 with 30+ episodes, and the full project is planned step by step until 2035.
How Much Story Is Left for Lord of Mysteries Season 2?
Season 1 covered only Volume 1 of the novel (Chapters 1–213), known as the “Clown” arc. That means the anime has adapted just the beginning of Klein’s journey. The main series runs up to Chapter 1394, so there are still 1,181 chapters of story remaining.
Lord of Mysteries Season 2 will adapt Volume 2: Faceless (Chapters 214–482). This takes Klein to Backlund, where he lives under the alias Sherlock Moriarty. Here, he solves cases, meets new allies and enemies, and climbs higher in the Sequence path. This arc has 269 chapters, and with 30 episodes planned, it should be fully covered.
Some fans believe the pacing might even let Lord of Mysteries Season 2 step into Volume 3: Traveler (Chapters 483–732), but the only confirmed part is Volume 2. Either way, Lord of Mysteries Season 2 has more than enough material to keep fans hooked.

How Did Season 1 of Lord of Mysteries End?
The ending of Season 1 takes place in Tingen City, where the Nighthawks confront Ince Zangwill, the traitor trying to bring down an evil-god offspring. Captain Dunn Smith sacrifices himself in the battle, leaving behind his powerful line: “We saved Tingen.”
At the same time, Klein Moretti is killed—but under the power of the gray fog, he returns. No one sees him clearly, but the scene shows him in Clown makeup, silently placing a Sevia chrysanthemum at his own funeral. He leaves it for Melissa and Benson, then disappears from Tingen forever.
Season 1 had 13 episodes. In China, it wrapped in August 2025 on Tencent Video/WeTV, while the global rollout on Crunchyroll ended on September 13, 2025. The finale was the same everywhere: the close of the Tingen arc.
Who Is Making Lord of Mysteries Season 2?
The production team remains the same for Lord of Mysteries Season 2:
- Producers: Tencent Video × China Literature (Yuewen/Qidian)
- Studio: B.CMAY PICTURES
- Director: Xiong Ke
- Executive producers: Ma Yankun and Wu Mian
This setup continues directly from Season 1. So far, there are no announced staff changes.
For international fans, Crunchyroll will stream Lord of Mysteries Season 2 and handle the English dub, while WeTV/Tencent Video will host it in China. The dub cast was first revealed in July 2025, showing Tencent’s intent to expand its global reach.
Final Thoughts
Lord of Mysteries became a fan favorite because it does not spoon-feed you. Every symbol, every ritual, every tarot meeting hides layers of meaning. We fans still remember Klein’s silent farewell in Tingen, and that memory makes us even more eager for what’s next.
Now with an official 10-year plan, Lord of Mysteries Season 2 in 2027, and a final movie in 2035, we know the journey is far from over.
