Mushoku Tensei Season 3's official preview for Episode 13, "Diary," dropped September 18 from TOHO animation's channel, and unlike last week's preview, it's narrated in-character by present-day Rudeus rather than the older "Old Deus" persona who carried Episode 12's teaser. In under a day the video passed 1,500,000 views and pulled in over 1,000 comments. The top reply (2,030 likes) credits the production team's restraint about spoilers, but another heavily-liked comment (1,308 likes) reads the preview as confirmation the anime is about to animate the diary material in full rather than compress it into a quick recap, and the comment section splits between anticipation and dread from there. By the end of the thread, commenters are debating whether the tragic path shown here even counts as the story's "true" version of events, and whether Episode 13 is shaping up to be the best episode of the year or the most miserable one.
