Is there one? Or does it even matter? I personally start at the top and go
clockwise. Just curious.

**Update:** I realized the other day that the reason I start at the 12-o'clock
position and go clockwise is because this is the same motion (more or less)
used when writing あ, お, め, ぬ, の, etc.

question
kana stroke-order
Stroke order for han-dakuten
Well, a han-dakuten isn't a kanji, so I would say that it doesn't matter one
way or another. However, the actual kanji `〇` has a "stroke order" (stroke
direction?) of a single stroke starting at the top and going counter-
clockwise. ([Link](http://kakijun.main.jp/page/zero01200.html)) So, if `。`
does have one, my bet is that's what it is.

This [blog post](https://blog.goo.ne.jp/moonie-

book for the writing order of a 半濁点. It starts from 6 o'clock and goes around
clockwise.
