Lady Arya Posted July 15, 2010 Hehe, LOL. My little dyslexic mind is having fun! Quote Link to comment
Shadix Posted July 15, 2010 It takes some getting used to... moreso when you're reading 2 books of it. -S Quote Link to comment
Chols Posted July 15, 2010 Maybe WE'RE the ones who read backwards. Just ask any one who reads Japanese and they'll tell you. Also which manga is that? Looks like one of the Four Swords books. Quote Link to comment
Shadix Posted July 15, 2010 Well, the rest of the World reads left-to-right, so they are the weird ones. Besides, America is the most dominant country in the world currently. Anyone who does differently from us is weird (not to say we're not weird) -S Quote Link to comment
Nidman Posted July 15, 2010 I seriously don't get how it's hard to read like that I mean just flip the order and you probably get how we read comic books Quote Link to comment
HAZMAT Posted July 15, 2010 Back when I regularly read manga, I had to readjust every time I got a BIONICLE comic. Because I would try reading it that way. xD Quote Link to comment
Shadix Posted July 15, 2010 XD Thats awesome. Had to readjust to reading correctly. -S Quote Link to comment
Thracia 776 Posted July 16, 2010 At least the animated cartoons don't go backwards. Now THAT would be confusing. Quote Link to comment
Turakii #1 Lavasurfer Posted July 18, 2010 It's not too hard to get used to. The only problem is when you're browsing DeviantArt or some such art site and keep coming across some artists who draw them the usual style and some who draw them manga-style, and none of them explain which they're using... I have actually read many comics backwards and not even realized it until halfway through. <=D Turakii Quote Link to comment
Shadix Posted July 18, 2010 XD that's awesome. Poor comic when you can't even know which way reading is right, huh? -S Quote Link to comment
Kohaku Posted July 28, 2010 It is called Manga. The Japanese read things differently than we do, and for Manga they usually opt to keep it in the original format rather than flip everything. I found that it was really easy to get used to, I can easily switch between both and always could. Kohaku Quote Link to comment
Shadix Posted July 29, 2010 I didn't know that was the definition of Manga.... I thought it was like Anime, but in print. -S Quote Link to comment
