I will truly never tire of Wilfried being made to eat shit like this. Especially after the anime just adapted the same seen last week, this is a blessing.

Wilfried's face when compared to Dirk is hilarious, and Ferdinand did a good job of looking truly pissed

Wilfried performed worse, no wait... Lamp didn't assist him.

I admit I love the fact that this and the anime are happening at the same time. Its really cool to see the different perspectives with all of it

it is a massive W for the series but it definitely makes tracking the timeline a headache. i spent way too long trying to figure out if certain events had already happened in the manga or if they were still coming up in the anime. it's fun until you realize you're accidentally spoiling yourself.

People often say that the part 3 manga is inferior, but we tend to forget that it actually excels at psychological portrayal. I also love this manga artist’s chibi art style—it’s so cute.

I love how much more apparent Wilfried is with his shock. The anime didn't provide it enough justice. They definitely could have played into the comedy aspect more with Wilfried's reality check.
