Could be real, people who have only read western comics might have no experience with manga

Given that about half of Amazon's "reviews" are basically "I didn't read anything and ordered the wrong thing. 1 star." I wouldn't expect it to be a joke.

I dunno, I've seen certain publishers of manga in English put big warning pages on the back (or what people might assume is the front) saying things like "Hey, you're starting on the wrong side!" Those warnings are there for a reason.

That's not all: they also flipped all the panels and the entire book too. Also the author's name is Takahashi or something, what a funny name!

So weird 1 Star. no I am not stupid why?

My sister once rented Pan’s Labyrinth and returned it because she “got the Spanish version by mistake”.

People are stupid.

I hadn't realised it was Spanish language until it started playing, but it became obvious to me that it was a Spanish movie, after they started speaking in Spanish.
