My Review: Among Us + Kaguya-sama: Let's sus out the main protagonist!
The story revolves around the female protagonist, Shino, and her personal butler, Kimi, who's actually her classmate and crush, Yu. As expected from a rom-com scenario, Kimi (or Yu) is trying to keep this a secret, or he would be ousted by Shino's parents as they would disapprove her relationship with a classmate. Typical conservative asian parents lmao. (though her mother's character design is so distracting) The appeal is how Kimi/Yu would almost get busted for doing suspicious actions or baiting readers with possibilities like early Kaguya-sama. Oh, there's also another rival girl, Fuuka
...
(or called by Yu as Kafuu-chan) who's definitely going to lose in the end and of course she's a childhood friend. Fuuka doesn't have a Hayasaka or Ayase appeal, but an alright rival in my books. Fortunately (for some people), Yu's younger sister, Mimi is a great comedic relief. I wish no one ship them with Yu, although she didn't appear that often. The manga would revolve around either butler-master situations in Shino's house, or at school where more characters interact with each other. Funny enough, there is a lot of western references compared to other mangas, like Max Verstappen on the TV or X-Men cosplays during school festival. Also, I love how they implement several fan service shots to hook you in the early chapters like Shikimori manga, but that would be a rarity later on. Overall, a great read if you wanna kill some time or someone with a truck. 7/10 Waiting for an anime adaptation or live action.
