Lookism Discussion Thread

Looks like mid to high end 9-A, I’ll try calculating it later. Though that structure really is inconsistent, why is the bottom part so small? The statues of Shingen and the other 3 will also take some guess work.
 
You guys remember when Lookism was about Daniel trying to make friends and about standing up to bullying while commenting on societal issues about South Korea.
To be fair it still does, but its more about class issues and how social discrimination leads people to crime

We can't have 600+ chapters where every arc is just "hot people can be evil, ugly people can be good! People will judge others unfairly just because they are ugly" etc
 
Why doesn't Manager Kim scale to High 8-C? He pretty easily damages Tom Lee during his interview to the white tiger job center, as well as when he quits. He also fights and damages King, who is able to ragdoll Tom.

Probably just forgot to include him tbh, though a caveat is that he should be >= 50% Tom Lee so it'd be Likely High 8-C

Lowkey not true SMK fought a weak version of King who didn't had God's Realm and his Body was crumbling every second meaning he was weakening yet SMK needed Closer's help to nip his leg off and end him

And ragdolling Tom isn't really a good feat even 2A yunseong and Mandeok were sending him flying, also to add up King says his attacks didn't went through Tom at all, the same attacks that put down 100% patch Hansu

King only put down Hansu after an extensive battle and because Hansu was handicapped by an injury— he also had more endurance and stamina because of his physique. Hansu when he got serious was breaking King's bones with each attack. And even after he kept beating Hansu, Hansu was able to remain conscious long enough to pierce King's chest with his fingers. Even Jincheol was capable of going up against King and taking attacks from him with relatively little damage and was only really surprised because of King's superhuman endurance allowing him to fight at peak condition constantly rather than just his raw strength.

This also doesn't erase the countless other times Kim harms and fights on par with Tom.
 
In the second panel, it wouldn't be correct to use the statue's height as a reference because of perspective. That would inflate the results.
What would be a better reference point than? I changed it to using the Japanese guy at the bottom with the average height of 1.71 meters and got even bigger results (not much bigger but like a 25% increase).

Sending people flying is generally not even a feat, since those kinds of movements tend to only support body weight, and we must remember that in Lookism we are dealing with humans who surely weigh between 70 and 100 kg exerting forces massively greater than Class 5.

Again, nah. Hansu wasn't injured, he was just old. We see that in the flashback panel... it wasn't about injury, it was just him getting old. I mean, every character from the Old Gen is just old and out of their prime.
And again, I'm saying Hansu was barely able to hold onto his consciousness to deliver that blow to the heart. Meanwhile Tom literally took no damage, as King himself said: "none of my attacks went through him.” English may not be my first language, but I'm sure I know that means low to no damage.
So that's the comparison: a guy who got laid out by King after he used God's Realm, vs a guy who barely took any damage despite King using God's Realm.

Even Jincheol was capable of going up against King and taking attacks from him with relatively little damage and was only really surprised because of King's superhuman endurance allowing him to fight at peak condition constantly rather than just his raw strength.
Nope. Base Jincheol barely did any damage to King. He almost got knocked down from the helicopter. He needed War Mode and a flashback to get back into the damn aircraft, and yet he didn't fight King. He just slammed the pilot and took 3 chapters with him. He barely fought King, and the moment he got overwhelmed he dipped out.

This also doesn't erase the countless other times Kim harms and fights on par with Tom.
Yeah, but during those encounters Tom never went all out. During their last fight he was drunk or holding back. And to back this up, Manager Kim literally says nothing would work against Tom - he meant weapons - and he wouldn't imagine Tom losing to something while he himself had wires wrapped on his fist.
And the biggest statement/feat that favours Tom: during the Interview he damaged SMK's arm so badly that it was barely usable for the next 80 chapters, while Tom barely had any injury from the Interview. The only reason he stopped was because SMK was destroying his furniture.
