Yes, manga is read from right to left. When translating to English the panels and speech bubbles are not rearranged.

Unless it was translated in the '90s and before. A lot of early manga translations, they just digitally flipped the pages so they were a mirror image to the original manga, then added English text in the bubbles, which were now facing left-to-right.

I specifically remember Ghost in the Shell and Akira were flipped for American reading order. Maybe Battle Angel Alita too? I bought the English-translated books, but had to find fan translations online to read it in its original orientation.

Fun fact: Ghost in the Shell (the first volume) actually had a couple pages of an explicit lesbian threesome on a yacht, which were edited to a few girls hanging out in bathing suits on a yacht for the American release. Too spicy for '90s American sensibilities.

Seriously what the fuck. What is ice cream?

What's ice cream? Well, you add flavour to cream and mix it while refrigerating it. It's a classic delicacy.

I had this problem all the time. My response was always "Dad told me to ask you." And next week on "How To Start an Argument Between Parents"...

To whoever goes by this comment, downvotes and thinks "yeah it is!" - you are wrong. It's an endless loop, where a condition to exit it is never met. Recursion is calling on the same function and it slowly getting you the answer. I.e. the task is - ask 15 relatives. To ask the next relative, you first need to ask the one before it. And then you need to ask an even further n+1 relative, till you reach the 15th. So then you meet the condition for the 14th, till you ask person 1 and then you can go for ice cream.

Have you met Japanese? They all look 12yo until they turn 25, then stopped aging again until 45, then 65, then 85.

Who fucking cares? If you're going to spout bullshit, at least be fucking accurate about it.
