Synopsis

Inside a spaceship, a group of five crewmates—Tamago, King, Megane, Yankee, and Cap—has gathered to play a game of Among Us. They all have victory in mind, but only one person plans to win at the others' expense: the impostor, Tamago. With Tamago aiming to eliminate everyone but himself, the other crewmates must suss him out as quickly as possible. However, their absurd deductive skills prove ineffective in spotting the suspect amid the crew, as they poorly attempt to identify the impostor among them.

Oh. My. God.

AMOGUS WHEN THE IMPOSTER IS SUS 😳 :scream_cat: 😳 :scream_cat: MANGA.

When I first heard the news, I could not believe what my retina was sending to my brain. The Japanese decided to make a manga based on the extremely popular game Among Us! Simply could not have thought such a possibility was even feasible. It was a must that I was to read all of its content in hopes for the cultural translations of the American humour would find a nice fit in the amazing medium that is manga. So what did I come across, was it worth it?

Yes.

But honestly, this works well... as a kid's manga (in more ways than one). It was very hilarious, correct magnitude of comedic intenseness, a variety of characters, and of course, sussy baka moments were common. Seriously, this is great stuff for kids manga, but it is also a universal treat in it being memed to absurdity. I don't imagine *anyone* who isn't in the loop reading this would not find something funny. Something of a genius Japan moment, the world has truly come together in humour with this manga.

There's not too much to talk about, it is genuinely a fun one-shot whether that be for external or internal reasons, but I would recommend it for sure. Possibly isn't for everyone, but that's fine, may need to call an emergency meeting for them to get voted out perhaps before they start venting for the kill. At the end of the day, I'm sure the kids of Japan would love this manga as much as the zoomers of the western internet would. Regardless of reason, we simply wish to have a good laugh.

After reading this masterpiece, I attained enlightenment and have ascended towards above and by then, have gained the tricks and advices of the greatest Composter in all Among SUS history. All hail Among SUS ඞ AMONG SUS BEST GAME IN ALL HISTORY! I even played it while I was still a fetus. During that game I was just venting on the womb this whole time until I won!! I really won! I planned everything just like what Aizen would do.

Anyway, let's get back to the masterpiece of a story this one shot is. In all seriousness, I'll be serious so you people will understand... the importance of this oneshot.

Among sus is a video game which is created in 2018, which began its popularity on mid-2020 during quarantine, surpassing 217 million downloads by November. A lot of people have talked and played about it and now it has a one-shot!? I can't fathom the excitement I have after hearing the news!!! What a great day to live!!

The one-shot Is quite enjoyable and quite fun to read, with a simple story in a normal game in among us.
The art and the characters is actually alright, but I would've preferred to have more characters, to make it seem more fun and chaos but its alright. I also like that they have different personalities, just like the people playing the game itself. For instance Glasses, there is always that one dude in the game who is good at anything, also King, there's also that one guy who just votes whomever he wants according to his instincts, by not having any evidences or proof, and Egg, there's always gonna be someone who doesn't know how to handle things and panics when he is SUSpected. It does give the just the normal Among Us game with these kind of players. By these concepts it makes it more enjoyable to read and makes it more fun.

Overall, I think its a good simple story, and art and character designs are quite alright. Should definitely give it a try, only takes atleast 4-6 minutes to read. :)

That is all members of SUSiety.

Memes aside, here’s an actual review:

Among Us manga very much feels like “How do you do, fellow kids”, throwing out the “iconic” phrases and portraying what is mostly just average round of the game. There’s some humor mixed into it, mostly of the boke-tsukkomi routine, but its main appeal still seems to be “look at this, it’s Among Us”.

The story isn’t exactly interesting, but well, what can you do with 16 pages – and what more, in a children magazine. Yes, this is literally made for kids, so no surprise you won’t find this much entertaining if you’re not the demographic. Beyond the humorous fact... that Among Us manga even exists, of course. That said, even if it’s made for kids and based on a current trend, it’s at least still more dignified than the western creations of similar vein like Stinky Steve or Fortnite Funnies.

The art isn't bad actually, the design of the game works well with the gag manga style. And althrough I imagine it wasn't easy to portray character emotions using that design, this was succesfully achieved.

So yeah. This exists. I guess.
