One of them is a lot higher up in the panel, so its to be expected either way.

Yeah, I would expect it to be read this way no matter if Japanese or not

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 5 months ago

Such a weeb thing to say.

The ellipsis locations are another giveaway. I noticed them before I read the rest of the text.

Cancel all my meetings, I need to stare at this Lemmy post for a long time.

"Filthy casual" tripped me up, but the rest was surprisingly easy to read

Would be a better point if you used a western-style drawing. Like, make Asterix say that kinda thing - that might actually sting a little!

Top to bottom, follow the ellipses, anyone would this read right

[–] Katzelle3@lemmy.world 7 points 5 months ago

Reading it the wrong way doesn't really change the meaning though.

[–] Bronzebeard@lemm.ee 4 points 5 months ago

The western world reads top to bottom in their comics, too.

You chose a poor example to make your point.

[–] lurch@sh.itjust.works 4 points 5 months ago

Guilty. I often struggle to find the right way tho, especially when it's colored.

Instinctually started on the left, but switched over when I saw the ellipses and second half of a sentence
