Early Lookism James was one of the most mysterious characters in the story. His reputation, his connection to Charles Choi and how he despised him and the mystery surrounding his past made him feel like a good antagonist.

But after Cheonliang, I feel like his portrayal has been going downhill. He keeps getting hyped up, yet his actual fights and recent appearances haven’t really lived up to that hype like obviously tom wouldn’t have shown to be no diffed without path but his portrayal and thingy could  have been much better so James doesn’t loose the hype 

I’m not saying James should no-low diff every opponent, I just feel like his execution hasn’t lived up to the hype.Like,ngl even if he think that kitae is his pawn,he himself is just a damn pawn of gibok or charles

Another thing I’m worried about is him becoming nothing more than a pawn of Charles or Gibok,If everything he does is just part of Charles’ plans or gibok,then what’s even the point of building him up as this independent legend? His own ambitions, motives and personality should matter instead of him just being someone else’s tool because thats how he was build up from starting.

I don’t mind James not being the final villain or having someone above him, but I hope PTJ gives him his own goals and proper character development. Otherwise, all that mystery surrounding him might end up feeling pointless. Like,at this point he doesnt even feel like an antagonist to either of Daniel despite they both being opposite.

Don’t mind if you disagree,im bad at wording things but my main point was,his all build up from start doesn’t feel that much worth it

edit:-i forgot kenta

including his ui form

And btw all are written by ptj

i personally think jinyoung could get conviction,tom can get AI and idk about elite

Now this session was some good read not excellent read like some last session but good

so first thing which i would point out is i really loved steve and charles’s interaction like that was some good shi,people in current lookism talk like that?idk

now second thing like i think when danie goes to ui i personally think everytime he should wake up in his other body idk its just feels satisfyish if it that happens cuz daniel is unconscious in one body and he isnt controlling it too

proceeding,samuel’s character is one of the most interesting character in the series for me ,he wants to be king of the world which is u know not that small of a thing when we have characters like james and kitae and his inclusion in secret friends,first thing secret friends is a mysterious group as a whole like we dont know their motive

we finally got some viral hit ref in lookism and we will read vh too but thats a story for different time

i really liked how ptj showed 4a’s illegal activity

also 4a daniel was genuinely so good looking like js see him,he has a entirely different vibe

well im free so i will write all 10 genuises

crystal,gun,goo,james,tom lee,koji,jinyoung park,eugene,byeon kim and last is not revealed but j ig Idk even byeon isnt confirmed yet

also manager kim manhwa also starts from this arc like not exactly start but this is the first time we see him

next we will see zack vs johan

this time almost all i said was gibberish and just to make post longer thats it so u have wasted ur time reading ts today i had nothing to talk about

goodbye twuncs

chapters read:-285-300(starting)
