So you read the English words right-to-left? I don't see how you could get
anything but nonsense out of that. There can't be that many translators skilled
at writing everything in palindromes.

IOW: Try reading my original message again. This time for comprehension. I
never said it was impossible or even difficult to read manga right-to-left. I
said it was a less true to the artist's original intent.
