The Lookism Story Without Daniel Park

[@jamesw3413]

I think the more interesting bit would be whether Daniel still went through with his training. He probably wouldn't be able to make it in time to stop Workers, but if he gets to his current state sooner (since he has more motivation to improve) I think he could still come back into the story, especially if he joined Burn Knuckles or Zack's friend group. Who knows, he might have even been able to convince Jiho to improve his life too (although I think his selfishness would still be there).

[@morijinsbrother]

two things i'd like to add. its very possible that Daniel would still get trained. He still would've met Sophia, and likely infiltrated the 3rd affiliate because of the promise CEO Hong made to get him such a large amount of money. with Vasco Working outside club Vivi we could also see him getting involved. This could also lead him to meet DG and start looking into Charles Choi's background. if this leads to him eventually meeting Gun, like it did in the homeless arc, we could still see Daniel getting trained by Gun and potentially being even stronger. Involving CEO Hong actually allows for the Jichang and first affiliates arc to play out. If Daniel asks Vasco and Zack to help him we'd see a new, stronger Daniel vs Jichang but Vasco and Zack vs Jihan and Jibeom. if the old man still gets involved and tells Daniel to seek out Jinyoung Park we could still get the first affiliate arc, even if we're missing Hudson. Jay would still join allied ig maybe because of Daniels connection to his father and Sophia.

[@steviemccarty6441]

most likely no, Daniel only truly started to change after the runaway arc after Jiho pushed his 2nd body out of the window. Otherwise Daniel has no reason to get involved as his second body is the only reason he got involved with it all. He could not grow along his journey and would not be able to help guys like Duke

[@morijinsbrother]

@@steviemccarty6441 no my argument is that he would offer to infiltrate the 3rd affiliate for the money but still needing sophia to train him, thus still meeting Jake and DG. And chairman Hong could have him investigate Charles Choi. who sends Gun to deal with whoever is searching for him. however like in the original timeline Gun would kidnap him to train him, except instead of 1 month it was from Ansan to Hunt for big deal

[@steviemccarty6441]

@@morijinsbrother fair point, but the only reason Chairman Hong allowed Daniel into his plan is because he saw that Daniel knew some info on Charles. Otherwise i doubt he'll allow Daniel to help. Don't forget that Chairman Hong just gave Daniel his watch just to compensate for the door and was just about to leave until Daniel mentioned Gun, had he not mentioned Gun, Daniel might not be involved. At least that's my take on the situation since Daniel only started to changer after realizing that he has to utilize both his body and had no reason to get involved with the 4 major crews

[@morijinsbrother]

@@steviemccarty6441 well its still possible he heard it from vasco as they still wouldv'e been friends and Vasco wouldv'e been at goddog to see Gun

[@Luckynoziroh]

If Daniel never got a body, the author would change the story to fit the main character, leading to the growth of Daniel from the bottom to the top.

[@darkestasian6921]

Everything’s better that Daniel’s gone is the most accurate thing I’ve ever heard

[@SmashSetK]

True but it’s still a double edged sword given knowing the character’s like Jake their pride wouldn’t allow working under a cooperation due to Big Deal being a community type of thing that’s kinda been it’s own family.

[@shinshinsho]

you should do a story similar to the thumbnail where daniel doesn’t have a second body and something makes him go insane that’d be fun

[@WannaBanna-mt2bx]

I saw this theory on tiktok about how OG Daniel and 2nd body Daniel are the same person just years apart beacuse the new better looking Daniel is starting to resemble his 2nd body

[@buzor3742]

I don't really think so since the 2nd body is as old as OG daniel

[@BobbyVegetableMan]

⁠​⁠@@buzor3742he meant that the body was years apart. Plus the second body would resemble there 1st bodies full potential.

[@Neal_21]

the second body is basically like an adaptation of which user will use the second body and shows the possibility of what they looked like in perfect form.

[@andrewbonafilia984]

Few questions is what exactly do you think would happen with Sinu? Would Eugene still try to keep where Sinu is a secret especially since hes brainwashed? Also, even if Eugene helped Johans mom do you really think hes the type who would just let it go? Eugene did help Vivi in the drug business

[@ViralMatt]

I think Jake would've joined Workers just to find Sinu. Who knows if he would betray Workers or not later. As well as Johan, we don;'t know how he would approach the betrayal. It's up in the air

[@thezwarriors89]

Great Video! interesting to know the consequences if the main character just never exists!

[@RarelyMichael]

I think no matter what Logan would mercilessly and publicly bully Daniel in school. Which would draw Vasco's attention. Vasco would reach out to Daniel and I believe he'd accept. I think Logan 'pressing' Zoe would still happen for some reason and despite Daniel not being close to her. It'd serve as final straw for Daniel's actual training results to kick in. Then sure he'd be absent or irrelevant for a number of arcs (nothing new, Lookism has plenty of arcs where Daniel is practically written out). However we'll get the Lookism classic of a character stepping out of the shadows with ???, to help at some point and it'll be : Fat Daniel (The 'attractive Piggy' according to Zoe) Then it's Lookism as usual except Daniel is a considerable underdog (still with the copy ability) and it'd probably be super Shonen with Daniel losing every fight but showcasing incredibly tenacity and earning respect from higher tier fighters. I believe he'd inevitably transform into the current Little Daniel, but how and why. I havent put much thought into.

[@glitchmice6067]

*I think Zoe would still be pining for little Daniel, as Daniel would save her from the stalker in the Paprika TV arc. It's a relatively early arc in the series, which means little Daniel hasn't gotten much development character-wise; it's for this exact reason that I believe little Daniel would still save Zoe from the stalker, as he performs his heroic actions without any sizable character development in canon. This means that, even without a second body, he would still save Zoe. *Adding onto the above point, Zoe pining for her Piggy would result in her attempting to defend him from Logan Lee's bullying when he ultimately transfers. Logan would originally rage at her interference, but would come to realize that he might have a chance with Zoe himself. Eventually it'd all come to a final showdown with Zack, Vasco, Vin Jin, and little Daniel, with little Daniel cracking a character-developing one-liner after he finally stands up to Logan. Probably something like "I paid your graduation fee, yadda yadda yadda." (In reference to the events in Pavlov's dog). *Even without his second body, I think that little Daniel training with Vasco is an inevitable event. Although he probably wouldn't have as much motivation in canon, he'd probably even attempt to quit a few times, Vasco would most defintely scare him back into training and push him to become better. I can see little Daniel becoming a pseudo-member of BNC through his training. *Although little Daniel would still get training and get stronger and slimmer as a result, I believe in chubby Daniel supremacy. His training wouldn't be as intense in canon as to allow for his super fit shape; of course, I'm not disregarding the possibility of little Daniel recieving this training through one means or another in order to become super fit Daniel, but if I'm being entirely honest, in an alternate universe where little Daniel never recieves a second body I'd love to see chubby Daniel absolutely rocking his arcs. :P

[@Allenluvable]

Honestly, if not for Daniel giving himself up to save Johan at the summit meeting, I think Johan would have likely died there. If that was the case, Zack would be the MC from here on, as he tried to avenge him. Or if Johan did give in in that moment, he would have spent every second after trying to f*ck shit up from the inside. Basically, Johan is the real main character of this webtoon, and nobody can convince me otherwise.

[@alexso2602]

you should do some kind of podcast in this style. would be fire🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@yuuhan_requiem]

“If he wanted Vivi? He would take her.” Ayoooo?

[@redposter]

Basically : "what if lookism was unlookismed"

[@abel9888]

Can you do what if Daniel actually enjoyed fighting. Or what if instead of Daniels second body getting kidnapped it was his first and 2nd body Daniel got trained with gun

[@Neal_21]

I was expecting that during first summer vacation of Daniel meeting his relatives. Baek Noh might see him by accident and sees Daniel look strolling around to have peace of his mind sees him looking like Jinyoung Park in his eyes despite of his fat appearance thus He might train him to loose weight but still short..then Daniel might ask why he was called a young master thus Baek Noh would tell him the truth. So i think in this new story, Daniel Park is basically looking for revenge at this point that leads to him meeting Big Deal because they were helping him since Daniel Knows Jake's dad and Jinyoung Park were best friend. thus Daniel is going to be part of Big Deal and Jake would meet Baek Noh as well and tell him the truth about his father's death. (If somehow made an error on their names then i might have to change it.) They might have join workers at this point as Daniel would meet Tom Lee and his father helping him to get mentally recover. plus an additional training that Daniel will be trained by James Lee himself since he's still teaming up with Eugene anyways. So that leads to Daniel Park being the successor of James Lee who's not only master of all martial arts but invisible attacks as well. he might have encounter Gun as well to test Daniel of being the new James Lee and will find out about the copy ability. thus he might wanna make Daniel into even more monster by letting him teaching subconscious since we know Gun seeks fighter who wants to kill him.

[@suytikyuu4003]

I think fat Daniel wouldn't be so close to the j high guys but he would still end up getting saved from Zack by vasco and he will at some point ask Vasco to train him which he won't deny. He'll get close to vasco and maybe even get friends with Jay (who would also help him out against zack or Logan). I think he would join burn knuckle because he seems them as an inspiration especially Vasco. At the beginning he would be weak but he has potential and he might get strong faster since he has a reason to get strong and since he might be sick if being unable to do anything

[@Eman_a31]

You guys missed that Vasco would have trained lil Daniel still by making him fight for food, which i believe would make him skinny and scale at about the same level as Pre Prison Jake. I say this cuz vasco was all about changing yourself to the best version of you.

[@margauxfernandez2289]

Yesss one of the reasons why I don't think he would've ended up like Jiho even without his second body. Daniel had something to keep going for, his mother. Just like Duke with his grandma. Jiho? Never showed. (Sorry if this was already mentioned, I haven't fully watched the video yet, will come back)

[@Flyerguy]

YEAAAA IVE SEEN ENOUGH ANIME WHAT IFS ITS TIME FOR LOOKISM WHAT IFS LETS GOOOO!!!!!!

[@kentlozada509]

This just shows how strong workers are but i want to add some things For one lookism if lets say Daniel is still mc will be more of romance than slice of life since he'll get more close to Krystal instead of his usual friend group (since gun probably won't beat Daniel once they meet on the festival) As for Zack he'll probably still bully Daniel a lot while vasco will be the one to make him realize his mistakes and will probably still try to befriend Daniel and jiho but yeah the sad part is duke won't be a celebrity instead vin jin will get the role As for hostel arc Daniel will probably still be involved though not as much since yeah he's probably still bit useless here even on 4th affiliate arc since no black badge On the 3rd affiliate arc however he'll probably still meet chairman hong and at this point he probably already know about 4 major crews so he'll have a reason to pretty much want to destroy 4 major crews And maybe Daniel will meet gun through Krystal but pretty much everything will play out the same like you guys said probably Except if big deal in a way happen to find sinu which will of course result into betrayal

[@XxChamoy_69]

[@starmegalo1770]

Watched it, and this video is well made. But I think it ignores Little Daniel way too much. He is the most talented character and his growth was slowed down considerably because Big Daniel existed. Imagine if he actively, seriously without bullshit like him thinking he can lose weight without cutting food(This is probably just plot stopping his progress) Now, we have this kid who will copy abilities better than Johan, has UI, has rage...and he will get all of these early. Like, if being pushed to end = UI, in the progress of getting stronger he can learn control himself. He can abuse his copy ability to get stronger. He can still get trained by Gun. Crazy ironic, but Daniel would be stronger without second body.
