If you're coming into this expecting a novel, don't. It's a self-help book. There's basically no story and all of the chapters are pretty much the same. As a self-help book it may have some merit and the book's irreverent attitude towards deities is occasionally entertaining, which is why it's getting two stars for entertainment.
The copious Kansai-ben makes this book decent for getting to grips with how the dialect works and sounds if you don't have much exposure to it, though.
I loved the Kansai ben Elephant and how he interacts with the main character. I definitely recommend listening to the audiobook while reading as sometimes the kansai ben can be hard to read aloud in your head :)
