| Yes, that's exactly why. |
A stupid thread deserves a stupid answer!  |
| Yes, they're too used to inferior comic books which have alot of action and simple paneling so they can't handle the sudden upgrade. |

| The more you read the more you get used to the way you do it. I myself am sometimes confused while trying to read comic panels from right to left. :s |
 |
| The worst was when I worked at a comic book store and I would go back and forth between comics and manga. After a page or two of either I'd realize I was reading them backwards. Someone mention the paneling in comics vs manga but I don't think that crosses most people's minds. Just the concept that they read the opposite way then English is enough to turn people off. There are a lot of people who can't even conceive that is a thing. Also, a lot of people just won't read anything in black and white. Not just manga but America comics too. There was a dude who really wanted to read the Walking Dead but when he realized it was in black and white he balked. Finally after a few months he decided to give it a shot and in the end he said it didn't bother him at all while reading it. But he had to mentally get past it first. |
| People don't realize that after a few pages you're used to it already. |
 |
| they're morons who want to fuck with you, I had read western comics for years before even touching a jap comic and was able to read it just as good |
 |
| I read a lot of american comics as well, and am constantly going back and forth between reading left to right and right to left. It's not super confusing, but occasionally I'll forget I'm reading a manga and try to read it from left to right. It usually only takes a few panels to realize I'm reading it backwards though. |
| I remember reading my first manga and it was really confusing. After a while along with some help from others telling me that it's read from right to left, I got the hang of it. It isn't a problem for me at all now Although sometimes the mangaka is bad at transitioning dialogue from panel to panel, so that could be another reason. |
| Probably because it's a new aspect to them. It isn't hard if you're used to it. |

  "With all due respect, if you keep running your mouth, I'm gonna lose it." |
| Guess so. I remember trying to read it from the left. I don't mind as I'm used to read fron right to left (my mother tongue is Hebrew). But there are some people who can't figure the order of squares. |
 |
| I guess when you are not used to it is... It is for the beginners... Yep that counts me as well |

| Lol it's totally easy. It even feels better doing right to left eye movements. It may be cause I'm used to reading l to r so this feels adventurous :D Don't know but maybe everything would be better right to left. |
 |
| I've never understood it either, honestly speaking. People are always surprised when they see manga in my home for the first time, and usually are like, "wow, and you seriously read it backwards??", like it's something absolutely unbelievable. And it takes literally two seconds while reading first page to get a grasp of it, lulz. |
