Urm.. how do I read right to left printed manga?

[LordJezo]

I just noticed I dont quite know how to read it..

You open it from the side that would be the back in the USA and read it going forward, but, are the panels also read from right to left or do you just turn the pages right to left?

Just got the first Trigun manga and I am a bit confused as to which way I go.

You don't.

Thanks for the non-answer.

Anyone else?

 

[nativesunshine]

if the pages start from right to left..then you read from right to left.

isn't that kinda obvious?

read the directions. if the manga is from VIZ or RAIJIN, they will tell you how you should read it.

Right to left... thats because Japanese is read like that... but it keeps the feel when in English even if a bit useless. 🙂

<-- this guy can.

So is that a yes? Do I go bottom to top?

It's a bit hard to change one's way of doing soemthing after 20+ years of conditioning.
