The image above is from the manga, Death Note. To read it the proper way you must start at the top right corner and then end at the bottom left. Start by reading the very first panel at the top from the far-right speech bubble. From there read right to left. Then move on to the diagonal panel to the right . Read the panel below that one. Repeat those steps for the rest of the panels. Reading a Japanese comics comprises of reading right-to-left and top-to-bottom.
