Reviews for Never Say Ugly Manga

This review contains spoilers. Since it's a comic, there are parts that are exaggerated, but it's so real that men can use their bodies conveniently, not ugly, not equal virgins. I was hoping that the main character would be even happier all at once due to that descent. It's a really interesting comic that carefully depicts lookism.

This review contains spoilers. This comic tells the story of people suffering from lookism, but each one of them looks completely different. The main character who was ridiculed for being clumsy, a beautiful woman who can only be seen by her appearance, a plus size model who worried about her weight and tried to choose death, and a handsome man who is bothered by her short stature. There are various characters, but what they all have in common is pain about “beauty.” But well, I don't think lookism will go away in the future. It's natural to think that beautiful things are beautiful, and honestly, prejudice about appearance won't go away. That's why I said, “Well then how can we be good friends? Isn't it important to think “I wonder if we can get along well?” It's impossible to fight. That's why I wanted to think about how to deal with lookism and how not to hurt myself or get hurt. However, this is just my opinion, and I don't think there are any right or wrong answers. That's why it's difficult. I can't get to the right answer even if I think about it all the time. But I do believe it's important to think. Looking at it from that point of view, I felt that this comic was a good comic that made me think about “beauty.”

This review contains spoilers. Volume 5 was particularly interesting, and I learned a lot again. Values are the environment. Probably because I grew up without being told anything about my appearance, for better or worse, it was a tremendous learning experience for me up until now without being really aware of discrimination based on my appearance. It wasn't until I read this comic that I learned about the problems of beautiful women and the pain of being ugly. I was also in a girls' high school, so I really sympathize with one character's statement that a co-ed woman is conscious of men's eyes. Are there people who are trying to become the image of women that men want because they even wear clothes that men like? Do you want to be appreciated by men that much? A comic that makes me realize that I was lucky to be surrounded by parents and friends who didn't say anything about my appearance. I'm really curious to see what the final volume will be like. I myself have decided how to deal with lookism and other people's values, but I honestly don't know if that is correct. I would be grateful if I understood how to capture it in the last volume.

This review contains spoilers. It's a comic that makes me think. If they don't look good, they worry; on the other hand, people who look good don't have any worries and look profitable, but everyone has some kind of complex. It is depicted that everyone is worried about the evaluation in terms of appearance, such as a drop in evaluations even for handsome guys because they are short. In today's world, while promoting diversity, emphasis is placed on appearance. Excessive compliments such as being too beautiful or too handsome, etc., and conversely, they criticize them badly as being unfortunate, ugly, etc. Anyway, it's an age where appearance is evaluated in everything. Even when it causes some problems, if you have a good face, you're a handsome guy, etc., why, etc., and if you have the same face, criticism floods in even more. It's a difficult world to live in. However, starting in their 30s, that person's humanity also shows on their faces. People with nice content have soft faces and are attractive. I think it is a diverse society where everyone has confidence in the face they were born with and where everyone is not obsessed only with beauty. The more I read, the more stuck it became!

This review contains spoilers. It was different when I was wondering if they were just drawing “The Hard Life of an Ugly Man,” which is common these days. Even if you don't follow me on the internet or SNS, information such as “this kind of face is cute” or “this spring's makeup is like this” jumps into your eyes. “The message 'your body is imperfect' is always received no matter where you are,” in the story. I thought today's world was condensed into that word. People who are not only beautiful or ugly but also have completely different tastes exist in one world, and I thought it would be important to keep trying to understand them even when they bump into each other. I can understand both Tomoko's feelings and Rika's feelings, and the backgrounds of every character are carefully drawn, so it was nice to be able to sympathize with that pain.

This review contains spoilers. It's a comic that reflects various opinions about lookism, and it's interesting, but I think people are attracted to beauty is that it is at the root of desire and can't be helped. Rika, who aims for anti-lookism, is also a beautiful woman, so that opinion can be accepted by people. If Rika looks like Tomoko, it's hard to accept it. People are attracted to beauty, but they acknowledge each person's individuality, We seek to become such a society where individuality is not ruled out
