American comics could also be read in that order with such a difference in dialogue height. It's bad design, but it happens.
Like, sure, I'm a weeb, but I'm also a nerd, you ain't got shit on me, ya casual ass meme.
The text is also larger and the speech bubble closer to and more aligned with her mouth, in front of her body in the direction she's moving, and in a more visually interesting part of the frame. Additionally, the second bubble starts with an ellipsis (continuing the first's), indicating even subconsciously that you shouldn't start there.
The height, of course, is the main factor.
Yeah exactly. Reading top to bottom thw right box is so much higher you read it first.
The right bubble is a lot higher than the left one, you'd probably read that one first even if this layout was used in a western comic.
I always read top to bottom

Miss my trans-London twink.
It always shocks me to see a comic that is read left-to-right…I’ve forgotten how to read content in my native language!!
My school taught me some Hebrew so I sometimes read right to left :3

I am so used to it that when I read regular content it is an issue and I have re wire my brain back.
