Japanese

books,

including manga

lilte this one,

read from right

cover is

actually

cover, and

vice-versa.

To read this book,

please

flip it over and start in the top right-hand

corner.

Read the panels,

and the bubbles in the

panels, from right

to left,

then drop

to the next

repeat.

It may

first,

but forcing your brain to

things backwards makes

smarter in the long

swear.
