| What a finale the fuck. So, his resurrection is connected to Azik? |
 |
| It was alright, tbh the ending felt more emotional in the novel.. they removed the part were leonard hit his fist to the ground really hard after seeing dunn and klein Either way, it's a 7/10 adaptation of Volume 1. I cant wait for season 2, 30 episodes.. π I suggest reading the novel after this from the start, there wont be any regret.. this novel is one of the best things ive ever read |
 wow |

no, all emotional secene were better in donghua . it could be personal preference though. 8.8/10 adaptation
| @supremeone55 No it was not, the scene were leonard went to tell kleins siblings about kleins death was 100x more heartbreaking in the novel |

@fanaticrat never cried once during volume 1 and the donghua adaptation was almost flawless for the ending (it didnt feature leonard crying tho)
Ince zangwill reveal and 0-08's puppet show and dunns "we saved tingen" were absolutely amazing
I think the flower scene could have had a better exaggerated and ridiculous "smile" but it was still amazing (in terms of visuals and soundtrack)
Legit latter half of the season (especially 6 and 9-13) made this adaptation go from a 7/10 to a 9/10 (this is still preference tho)
Not worried about all the cut content because they said they will adapt it in season 2

| @Skullwild Oh well, it is truly a difference in preference |
wow |
| Well, that was at least a very good and competent ending to the season. Unfortunately I think I’m better off reading the novels at this point (if I ever get to that one day). Sure I’ll continuing checking out future seasons, but it’ll be out of the obligations of a completionist and I don’t think my overall stance with this “adaptation” will improve significantly, even then. All the power to the claimed majority that did enjoy this, with that being said. |

Almost missed the short post credits scene!
Now that we know the culprit, we have to patiently wait for season two.

| @StregAnna77 I wish I missed it. It's cringe. Of all the names they had to mishmash those two. |
| Proper finale to a properly directed and animated show. But I'll have to rewatch. Chinese is simply too fast for me. Luckily dub is good, so I'll give it a shot. There are bunch of nuances that I have surely missed simply by trying to process all the writing. |

@MeanEYE i mean the name makes a lot of sense if you watch season 2
| @Skullwild thanks for the heads up. I won't mind it as much since it's a tribute it seems and not a recreation like we had few seasons ago where ms. Hudson was a busty redhead jerking off to Sherlock. Way to ruin the canon works. |
The animation is cinematic and richly atmospheric. The ending makes me even cry.  Look forward to Season 2 |
| Peaked cinema from China. |
| Glorious brilliant godlike autism. |
| only reason im giving this a 9 and not a 10 is because the show was still a bit confusing, specially the first half, otherwise it was goddamn PEAK can't wait for season 2 and its hopefully a bit less confusing |

| Absolute π― Cinema |

| it had fantastic visuals an the actions scenes are fantastic an well coreographed but the story is just interesting enough to keep one entertained, it does have a slow start an it relies a bit much on lore early on but it gets much better on its second half, the cast of characters is fine but no one stands out for the most part 7/10 |
 |
| What an amazing end that was ! Mind-blown ! LOTM season 1 was so fine from the start right till the end. Peak animation, story telling , music, characters. The thing that broke me was Klein having to say goodbye to Melissa. Melissa and Benson already lost their original brother Klein but still 'cause of Zhou they were able to have some more precious time with Klein only to be taken away from them in the end..ππ Dunn standing tall and strong with his heart in his hand feeling proud for saving Tingen from doom.. π«‘π«‘π₯Ίβ€οΈπ₯ Ince's got something big coming for him in the form of Sherlock Moriarty. Can't wait for season 2 |
| what the hackkkkk. this was sooo goood. i literally couldn't believe they killed off the fricking MC! is he now back as a human or sth else? alsooo i felt so horrible for his siblings oh God. now he's just gonna live as The Clown? or as Sherlock Moriarty? the song in the end was soo fitting i lost it. i really gotta go and read the novel now huh? 10/10 |
| Anyone else feel like there a nauseating amount of camera panning? the art style was amazing no doubt but holy fuck the cinematics were starting to get sort of disorienting by the end of it. |
The Industrial Revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race. |
| As someone who only watched the donghua, I’m so glad I didn’t drop this series. Honestly, it turned out to be one of the most unique and captivating shows I’ve seen, possibly the best of 2025 in terms of peak storytelling (6-13 Actually Good). It left such an impression that I can’t wait for Season 2, so I’ve decided to start reading the novel right away |
