Stupid Guy Goes Back to India

Stupid Guy Goes To India #2

by Yukichi Yamamatsu, Kumar Sivasubramanian (Translator)

On his previous trip to India, aging but irrepressible manga author Yukichi Yamamatsu overcame illness, pickpockets, and a formidable language barrier to successfully publish the first-ever translation of a Japanese comic into Hindi. Now he’s back -- running an udon noodle cart in the Delhi slums, hanging out with drug dealers, performing standup comedy in the park, and trying his best to fit in with the locals in rural Purvanchal.

I enjoyed reading this manga novel, finding myself laughing with a tinge of sympathy for the narrator's experiences in India. The comical narration style definitely added to the fun.

It is also refreshing to have found a comic book in this genre for adults - I am used to fantasy or romance-themed manga. It is my first time coming across a manga set in India that left me rolling on the floor laughing. Would definitely read it again!

Regret picking it up, but just did it to finish the duology.
It is an absolute cringe fest with no meaning whatsoever.

If you enjoyed Stupid Guy Goes To India, you are more than likely to enjoy this too. A Manga based on the adventures of a eccentric Japanese Manga artist in India is hard to digest at times, but has it's heart at the right place.
