I live in Thailand and, yeah, I notice that. It seems to be mostly relegated to various formats.
Haven't noticed it too much with Asian movies. Manga, of course.
But actually, alot of European books seem to do this. Especially older titles. English, too.
I just took a glance behind me at my video game collection, and didn't notice any that were inverted this way. I'm pretty sure I have _one_... maybe an old GB game.
To anyone thinking my knickers are in a twist, please just laugh and relax. It's mostly a curiosity.
Not sure my OCD can survive, tho!
Egads!
