Three special episodes are coming to Crunchyroll from <strong>20 June 2026<\/strong>, filling in the arcs the original run was too rushed to adapt properly.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"gt-video\">\n<div style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2B8-GKoyGMU\" title=\"Lord of Mysteries Specials | Official Trailer | Crunchyroll\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;border:0;\" allow=\"accelerometer;clipboard-write;encrypted-media;gyroscope;picture-in-picture;web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><figcaption>Lord of Mysteries Specials | Official Trailer \u2014 via Crunchyroll on YouTube<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>What Are the Lord of Mysteries Specials on Crunchyroll?<\/h2>\n<p>Produced by B.CMAY PICTURES and directed by Xiong Ke \u2014 the same team behind Season 1 \u2014 the specials adapt two storylines cut during the original 13-episode run that aired mid-2025. The season earned praise for its dense, occult world-building but drew criticism from fans of the original novel for pacing so compressed that entire character arcs were omitted between episodes.<\/p>\n<p>The first special, <strong>Lord of Mysteries Special: City of Silver<\/strong>, premieres on <strong>20 June 2026<\/strong>. The remaining two episodes \u2014 grouped under the title <strong>Lord of Mysteries Special: The Marked Hunt<\/strong> \u2014 follow in weekly drops after that, putting all three specials in your watch queue by early July.<\/p>\n<h2>The City of Silver Arc \u2014 Derrick Berg Joins the Tarot Club<\/h2>\n<p>The first special centres on Derrick Berg, a young man trapped in a cursed bastion deep within the Forsaken Land of God \u2014 a location Season 1 only glimpsed. Through the mysterious Tarot Club presided over by Klein Moretti (The Fool), Derrick is offered salvation and claims the seat of <strong>The Sun<\/strong> within the Major Arcana.<\/p>\n<p>It is one of the more emotionally grounded introductions in the original novel, and dedicated fans have been asking for it since the Season 1 finale. Seeing it get its own full episode \u2014 rather than a rushed montage \u2014 should go some way to soothing the frustrations of 2025.<\/p>\n<h2>The Marked Hunt \u2014 The Tarot Club Takes on a Pirate Admiral<\/h2>\n<p>The second and third specials shift to the open sea. Alger Wilson (The Hanged Man) proposes hunting down <strong>Qilangos<\/strong>, one of the seven Pirate Admirals, while Audrey Hall (Justice) leverages her aristocratic connections to set the trap. The arc puts the Tarot Club in genuine danger and gives Alger \u2014 a fan favourite who was significantly underserved in Season 1 \u2014 a proper moment in the spotlight.<\/p>\n<p>Both episodes are part of the same story thread, so expect the pacing to feel more measured than anything Season 1 attempted.<\/p>\n<h2>Where Singapore Fans Can Watch<\/h2>\n<p>Crunchyroll distributes <em>Lord of Mysteries<\/em> across Southeast Asia, including Singapore, under its worldwide-outside-Japan-and-China arrangement with Tencent Video. The specials follow the same deal: same-day global streaming. Episode 1 drops <strong>20 June 2026<\/strong>; episodes 2 and 3 follow weekly from there.<\/p>\n<p>If you are not yet subscribed to Crunchyroll, the specials are worth signing up for ahead of Season 2. Check the Crunchyroll app or website for current local subscription pricing.<\/p>\n<h2>Season 2 Confirmed for 2027 \u2014 and the Studio Has Plans Through 2035<\/h2>\n<p>Crunchyroll has confirmed <strong>Season 2 for 2027<\/strong>, with a higher episode count, a proper opening sequence, and extended episode lengths compared to Season 1. That is not the end of it \u2014 B.CMAY PICTURES has reportedly mapped the adaptation through Season 7, targeting 2035, which would cover the full scope of Cuttlefish That Loves Diving&#8217;s 1,400-plus-chapter novel across five volumes. If you are worried about another rushed season, the long runway suggests the studio has learned its lesson.<\/p>\n<p>There is also a <em>Lord of Mysteries<\/em> video game beta launching on <strong>26 June 2026<\/strong> \u2014 six days after the first special drops \u2014 for those who want to explore the Beyonder world interactively before Season 2 arrives.<\/p>\n<h2>Last Words<\/h2>\n<p><em>Lord of Mysteries<\/em> has one of the largest SEA fanbases of any Chinese animation, and Singapore fans of the donghua genre have a packed second half of June to look forward to: three specials from 20 June, a game beta on 26 June, and Season 2 on the horizon for 2027.
