The Tempura Files is a project about a man with a profound disgust for all things shrimp-y whom, after being fed a mozzarella stick secretly filled with a shrimp, dies of intense anger and hatred.

After awakening in Deep Fried Hell and noticing he has been transformed into the one thing he despises most, Tempurabarra sets off with his newfound demon cocktail friend to solve his murder/suicide and seek revenge on those who conspired against him, both in Deep Fried Hell and out.
