Review
Lookism chapter 520 starts off strong, revealing that Shingen Yamazaki, a tough leader of the Yamazaki Clan, is Gun Parkās father.
The chapter also highlights Gunās struggle with his role. Even though he was a quick learner and strong from a young age, he was pushed to be ruthless. He was forced to be the strongest, all he wanted was love but he was taught that, to be loved he has to fight.
Overall, this chapter adds a lot to Gunās character and backstory. Itās clear heās torn between being the ruthless fighter everyone expects and the person he really wants to be. The chapter was a fun read!!
