I personally think it’s better than Lookism. Don’t get me wrong, Lookism is really good too. But I stopped reading it bc the author dragged it out way too much. Meanwhile, this one has a final boss/certain purpose and they wrapped things up nicely at the end. No dragging out, no sudden change of main character. No too-overpowered characters (they still get beaten up and lost sometimes). So yea, to me, this one is better.
If you want a more grounded, less power-fantasy and school-life webtoon I'd say this is better, but if you like characters with complicated backstory and dark dramatic action, Lookism is way better.
Viral hit stops at the point they defeat a main antagonist, but for Lookism the world building is way more huge and intense and there are countless antagonists and generations to cover. Personally I prefer Lookism since the backstory building and fight scenes are crazy there, the current arc is heading to another climax too. It's lowkey like comparing One piece and Naruto haha, both are action based but one is still running while the other has already ended. It really depends on what you prefer.
Is this as good as lookism? I stop reading this many months ago and I wanted to read again if it's worth it.
