Coincidence

I loved how the animation keeps getting better and better. The OSTs are fire, Chinese VAs doing as awesome job(I don't get why people dislike it). This episode should have cleared most of what happened in the previous episodes for those who couldn't put their head into it. I agree the pacing was a bit too much for Donghua onlies but man if you can't understand anything even after this ep, I'm bound to call it a skill issue. I admit the director didn't do as good of a job in the starting eps but it wasn't his fault that Tencent is strict. It's as obvious as day that people can't bother to view official statements.

9.2 is an underwhelming rating for this masterpiece of an Episode. I don't get what shi Indonesians got with LOTM.

Last but not the least, if you don't like the show, don't possess a working brain, can't be patient enough for the season to reach its finale, drop the show. Blatant hate on something makes you an absolute loser so don't go out saying that the fans are being salty because yes, you WILL be hated for trashing on something so many people love and admire.

I just had this feeling while watching this episode and seeing all the plot points converging that this was an epic journey lol. The sequence of Klein doing divination has got to be the best visuals the show has done so far it was amazing and hype it's not action but it was definitely more hype for me, the pacing was very good and I understood everything once again this show proves to be its going to be amongst the greatest.

This is the episode where LOTM begins to approach a route different from that of other anime. Most shows usually make convenient use of plot armor and deus ex machina to summon important plot lines, events and characters conveniently for the main character so as to have the story progress.

LOTM seemed to be on the same track, with the past episodes, Klein was able to become a part of many supernatural events. As watchers, we usually laugh off higher level thinking when we watch these shows thinking along the lines of "dont our protagonist's friends feel that he's always caught up in too many things?" which is usually always the case. The main character appears and every event ends up being attracted to him, but being used to such developments we only consider it as a way to progress the story, a forced progression so to speak.

But this episode changed it all. Klein becomes aware of the many coincidences he's been facing since coming into this world, his teammates point out to him clearly that ever since he joined, the number of events they've faced have been more than they would in a usual season. Events aren't there just to progress our main character, have him become stronger, but are a part of something much bigger in scale with Klein being a part of it. The scope of the world instantly enlarges as all the previous events that have occurred so far seemingly seem connected, who is the true mastermind? Is there more than one mastermind? The special things that occur around Klein no longer seem forced, but deliberately put in, who are the real players in this world? And has Klein simply become an aware 'NPC' in a much larger game?

There's no need to talk about the animation and the production quality, it only seems to get better, but this episode was perhaps the most special of them all because it didn't follow the normal trope. This is more akin to the basement reveal in AOT. There's already a lot I managed to get from this episode, each theory leaves me more wide-eyed than the other. The show has already been able to plant a lot of different points that keep the watchers engaged, such as the mysteries of the Antigonus, The Nation of Evernight, Secret Order, Zaratul, and a lot more.

Episode 7 of *Lord of Mysteries* is a masterclass in pacing and payoff. Titled "Coincidence," it weaves together mysteries with satisfying reveals, blending horror, comedy, and Klein's growth. Stunning visuals and a chilling soundtrack elevate the experience. A must-watch for mystery fans! 10/10.. peak fiction.

Episode 7 of Lord of the Mysteries was absolutely amazing, standing out as one of the most well-crafted episodes so far. What made it truly special was how the main character, Klein, voiced the idea that not everything in life is just fate or coincidence-a refreshing contrast to most anime where the protagonist is conveniently at the center of every major event. This self-awareness added a layer of realism and depth to the story, grounding the supernatural mystery in a believable way. On top of that, the animation was stunning, with detailed facial expressions and atmospheric lighting that brought the eerie tone to life. The music and soundtrack were top-tier, perfectly timed and emotionally resonant, elevating every moment and making the tension and intrigue hit even harder.
