Yo guys I was a huge Lookism fan, still am of course, but I took a break to marinate and completely forgot to come back, ended around chapter 400-500, whenever og Daniel worked out and got skinny.
It’s been SO long (I was there when the first chapter released) I hardly remembered anything while I was reading that I kinda wanted to reread it back then, and now that I took such a long break and forgot even more, I really wanna get back into it and start from the beginning but ngl I’m wondering if it’s worth it.
Of course it is worth it thinking back to all the sick af fight scenes but I didn’t realize how long it got and every chapter was SUPER long I wonder if I have it in me
Anyone got any thoughts? Should I reread it and from the beginning (feel like I might even if yall tell me not to)
I think another driving point is I really wanna reread all my favorite arcs again (not by skipping to them but from the buildups to them and the crazy reveals that make me feel like I’m on the edge of my seat)

    Also how close would yall say we’re from the ending? I know we were on Workers when I left and I figured it might be the end because God Dog, Big Deal, and Hostel were disbanded or semi disbanded and all that was left were the masterminds Gun and blonde guy after Workers (forgive me if I forgot some names) so I figured it might end around late 500 and 600 but since it’s still updating I wonder if there’s more

    ur gonna have such a blast lmao especially if u don't really remember much, cuz in my opinion the story was much more enjoyable in the earlier chapters.
    There is of course a lot to look forward to, but I feel like if you want to get that experience again of going thru it, definitely start from the beginning. The fight scenes are peak, trust. and character development omg
    Ending wise I would say there may be around 800+ chapters, as theyre goin thru the whole of Korea to find kings, expand plot and other stuff. it took 6 years to get to 400 chps, according to this post, so whole thing is prob gonna finish in 2028 - 2029 https://www.reddit.com/r/lookismcomic/comments/12o757m/fun_fact_lookism_will_end_at_800_chapters_because/

    Dude for real, honestly it was so peak at the beginning and it felt like it was only getting better and better. A lot of people in the comments said Lookism is losing its plot which I can kinda see but at the same time I felt like the golden time for Lookism was when I took a break, like UI Daniel, Hostel Eli, Daniel and Jay pair, Johan and Daniel mimic pair, Mira and Zach lovers dynamic duo, etc etc like it was peak arc after peak arc during that time which is I why I left to marinate it, I even loved the multiple ships of like Jay x Daniel, Zoe x Daniel, and Crystal x Daniel (though I lean more towards the Jay x new Daniel (BFFs or yaoi) and Zoe x old Daniel (100% romance), they’re SO CUTE) cuz the romance was peak for a fighting webtoon
    And boy 6 years? I was there through it all but I didn’t realize how long it was 6 years go by so fast that’s crazy. I see though, so we are kinda at the ending (a little more than halfway) not bad. It would definitely be interesting to see why it takes 800 chapters to get through the story but honestly they have so many good fights with so many cool characters and backstories that I don’t blame them
    Thank you for the thoughtful explanation, anyone I asked said it was a waste of time without saying a reason why so I wanted some explanations regardless if it were positive or negative, though this webtoon has a place in my heart since I grew up with it (despite the break) so I probably would’ve read it regardless LMAO
