The book "Is He Turning Japanese?", a spin-off of the main manga written by László and illustrated by Oguri, was published by Digital Manga Publishing in North America.
Film version.
A film adaptation of the manga was produced in 2010. Official media related to the film version spell the title in English as "My darling is a foreigner".
Mao Inoue and Jonathan Sherr star in the film version, released in Japan in April 2010.
Reception.
Mark Shilling of "The Japan Times" gave the film a rating of 2.5 stars out of a total of 5 stars. He praised actor Jonathan Sherr as "miles above the usual foreign actor in Japanese films, meaning he is not totally embarrassing to watch", but added that when he is "required to show something deeper than affability, he is lost". "The Hollywood Reporter" also gave the film an average review. "Variety" stated that "narrative tension flounders due to excessive fidelity to Oguri's experience. Sherr has little to do but be sweet and understanding; Inoue is more rounded, but can't transcend the script's limitations. Occasional use of Oguri-style animation will appeal to the manga's fans, but merely emphasize the charm that's mostly missing. Helming and lensing are as flat as Sherr's character. Tech credits are solid." Joe Kern in "Metropolis" criticized what he described were stereotyped portrayals.
