Don't forget, with Japanese books you turn the pages the opposite way, starting at the "back" of the book. When they started the Japanese version, they probably had no idea they would move into the Western market with an English version.
The Japanese have a lot of nifty devices that are only sold in Japan. I have a great little Panasonic laptop with a 10 inch screen that only weighs 2.2 lbs and has a battery life of nine hours. Not sold here.
