I dont get it. Is this read from left to right or from right to left? Manga typically reads from right to left, but judging from her reaction neither makes sense... She is not making a "wha-" expression, which indicates that it came before, but she is already turning her head, which indicates that it it came after. WHAT.

Yes almost perfect, but she is already turning her head in 2nd panel, but in 3rd panel she is looking in front of her. Perhaps copy pasting the 4th panel onto the 3rd but removing the text bubble. But then again, how does the original even work? It's flawed...incurable...better we stop now.

Left to right. The two big panels are the first and last panels respectively.

But her reaction on the last big panel is more in line with her initial surprise to what she said, not the shocked reaction after having said wha-

I think the intended idea was that she freezes mid-sentence in shock after fully comprehending what was said. Shrunken iris, mouth half open... I personally think the reaction makes sense.

Yeah, the comic adds absolutely nothing to this very tired "fun fact", it's not a successful meme format at all imo.

But look at her face. That's adorable.

Adorableness does not a quality meme make.
