FREE: Read This Book Backwards ~ DeathNote ~

The listing, Read This Book Backwards ~ DeathNote ~ has ended.

This Book Was Made To Be Read From What We Call "Back To Front" Instead of "Front To Back" !!!

Thats Right ! ! ! !
Start from the back & read to the front....Its Flip-Flop'd, But not as confusing as it sounds....

In keeping the original Japanese format, DeathNote is meant to be read from right to left, starting in the upper right corner. Unlike English which is read from left to right, Japanese is read from right to left, meaning that action, sound effects & word-balloon order are completely reversed...Something which can make readers unfamiliar with Japanese feel pretty backwards themselves.
For this reason, Manga or Japanese comics published in the US. in English have sometimes been published "Flopped" - That is, printed in exact reversed order, as though seen from the other side of a mirror.
By flopping pages, US publishers can avoid confusing readers, but the compromise is not without it's downside. For one thing, a character in a flop'd Manga series who once wore in the original Japanese version a T-shirt emblazoned with "MAY" (as in "The Merry Month Of") now wears one which reads "YAM"! Additionally, many Manga creators in Japan are themselves unhappy with the process, as some feel the mirror-imaging of their art alters their original intentions.
We are proud to bring you Tsugumi Ohba & Takeshi Obata's DeathNote in the original Unflopped format. For now, though, turn to the other side of the book & let the quest begin...!
