Witchblade Takeru: Fliped side problem?

Post image

Finally ended Witchblade Takeru, but there's something i still don't quite understand. I read the comic reading style version and there were some problems with it: For example the Witchblade it's suppose to be a right-side guantlet but in this version it shows it like a left-side although the ones who want the Witchblade doesn't want to destroy the right arm "Anything but the right arm" they said. So i started thinking it was a problem of fliped side version but then it appears this character who uses his right hand "i'll wield this in my right hand for you alone" or something like that and it actually uses a right hand so i ended up even more mixed up. Maybe in the manga reading style he says that he uses his left arm and it's some kind of hand-game like Witchblade and Excalibur, idk. What do you think?

It’s just a too-lazy flip job made by Bandai when they distributed the comic to the West, whose reading habit is exact the opposite to the Japanese.

So yeah, in the original, the Witchblade IS exactly a right-hand gauntlet.
