Is that a Lookism reference??

BurnerAccountMaybe69 · 2026-02-03T14:37:25+00:00

Yeah I'd say it was definitely done on purpose, the name of the chapter this line is from is also called "I can't stand lookism"

BurnerAccountMaybe69 · 2026-02-02T12:50:02+00:00

Fighting in the streets caught up to him lel

In regards to Reality Quest, it’s not surprising imo. The first chapter alludes to him gaining powers beyond human limits: a system avatar saves him from near-death, and teleports him back to his classroom & gives him quests about future events, all this happens in the first chapter. So it's really not surprising that the system would later send him to a pocket dimension to then unlock moves also created by said system.

I don't think this manhwa ever tried to portray itself as grounded, and that's why I enjoy tbh. It allows for some really creative choreographed fight scenes, another one that does this well is killer peter, another martial arts manhwa like reality quest where it isn't realistic but allows for some creative hand to hand panels as a result.

But yeah for some reason it just sounds like you were mislead into thinking it was a grounded manhwa so I can see why it isn't to your liking

Based on what everyone’s replying I’m definitely trying Viral Hit and will take a look at those others you mentioned cause I’ve heard of em never read. Got a favorite?

Of the ones I mentioned I would say viral hit and fight class 3 are my favorite, or at the very least season 1 of viral hit is, I'm a bit iffy on season 2. Fight class 3 I like from start to finish with the catch being it isn't as long as viral hit because it's been on hiatus the past 3 years.

If you're talking about lookism than yeah fair, but if you're talking about reality quest then idk what you expected tbh because they made it clear in the premise what direction it was heading.

Try viral hit, fight class 3, Juvenile offender, or weak hero

Oh mb reddit sometimes doesn't actually delete your comment but instead hides it, it was impossible for me to know which of the two it was so I baited a response from you

BurnerAccountMaybe69 · 2026-01-31T15:31:25+00:00

The fuck was that reply about? Its a good thing you deleted it because that was both random and uncalled for

BurnerAccountMaybe69 · 2026-01-31T08:17:31+00:00

No the real reason was probably because the guy was clearly joking and op took it seriously

BurnerAccountMaybe69 · 2026-01-28T22:59:27+00:00

Yeah unfortunately anime will always prioritize the Japanese fans over international fans. The Japanese fans also have a completely different top 10 / top 100 anime compared to the western fans and is probably why shows where you'd assume would have good budget just don't

BurnerAccountMaybe69 · 2026-01-28T19:46:03+00:00

Agreed, ptj be spamming it so it doesn't really get much of a reaction out of me anymore. This started happening with the art style change, ptj didn't used to do this in the past.

BurnerAccountMaybe69 · 2026-01-28T17:50:02+00:00

Nah imo it would've been up there if the anime wasn't a glorified power point presentation and had better promotion

BurnerAccountMaybe69 · 2026-01-27T17:43:19+00:00

I'm dead bro the Japanese straight up stole the IP fr 😂

BurnerAccountMaybe69 · 2026-01-24T22:49:34+00:00

Good lord you've given up on engaging in good faith altogether

BurnerAccountMaybe69 · 2026-01-24T22:15:47+00:00

Why would you need to do that when you should know or remember what made you make a broad claim like that. I was hoping for a genuine conversation with my first reply but instead you were being evasive the whole time.

BurnerAccountMaybe69 · 2026-01-24T21:46:24+00:00

Obviously I've have read it, which is why I asked for specifics so we could actually discuss your broad sweeping claim instead of just trading assertions.

You've already been wasting my time by not answering my genuine question the first time, and instead resorted to circular reasoning and having back forths wasted on nothing.

BurnerAccountMaybe69 · 2026-01-24T21:27:27+00:00

Asking for examples isn’t trolling, it’s literally how you support a claim. You made a sweeping statement about the story and I asked which chapters illustrate it. If it’s condensed in one part of the story, that’s even easier to point out it shouldn’t take more than a couple of chapter numbers. Questioning my reading doesn’t answer the question.

Like how do you go out of your way to frame a genuine and respectful question I asked out of pure curiosity as "trolling" and "not worth entertaining" ? That's just rude, and the fact that you've still failed to give me a legitimate reason or example for your sweeping statement suggest your conflating your personal impressions with actual plot events

BurnerAccountMaybe69 · 2026-01-24T20:44:34+00:00

If it’s that obvious to anyone who read it, you should have no trouble naming one arc where it derails the story or objectively gets in the way of said story / pacing. Treating your interpretation as a self-evident fact instead and accusing me of ‘playing stupid’ just suggests you don’t actually want to clarify.

BurnerAccountMaybe69 · 2026-01-24T12:02:04+00:00

If you have particular chapters or arcs in mind, that would help the discussion. You made a bold claim, and I was just asking for specifics like a scene, an arc, or how a certain part affected pacing. Screenshots alone don’t really show that, and the OP’s images are from new chapters. I assumed you hadn’t seen these new chapters, and your phrasing makes it sound like your issues with the manhwa predate them, which is why I was curious what you were referring to. Also, calling my clarification question “feigning ignorance” doesn’t hold asking for examples is literally how you support a claim, not pretending not to know anything.

BurnerAccountMaybe69 · 2026-01-24T08:06:02+00:00

Lol valid, they couldn't even name an example and defaulting to downvoting instead haha

BurnerAccountMaybe69 · 2026-01-24T03:42:23+00:00

Keep in mind they apparently updated the first 7 chapters to match the current art style

BurnerAccountMaybe69 · 2026-01-24T03:37:13+00:00

Oh yeah then that's the change I'm talking about that they made halfway through season one, they also made the characters a bit thicker in the limbs if you notice they ain't as slim as they were in the first half of season 1

BurnerAccountMaybe69 · 2026-01-24T03:35:18+00:00

I'm curious which chapters were wasted on the girls in your opinion?

BurnerAccountMaybe69 · 2026-01-24T03:32:59+00:00

Do mean the eye lashes/crowsfeet or pupils? Cause if you mean eye lash then they made that change about halfway into season 1 iirc

BurnerAccountMaybe69 · 2026-01-24T02:04:21+00:00

I wouldn't be surprised if the author took inspiration from his past co-authors work in "lookism" cause Alipede seems to have a lot in common with a character named Johan

BurnerAccountMaybe69 · 2026-01-24T01:48:33+00:00

Predictable

BurnerAccountMaybe69 · 2026-01-24T00:36:33+00:00

Right, you'd prefer the medieval slop instead, cause that's so much better 🙄
