panel 5 is a really cool line in the context of someone being extremely hosed up and possessive on purpose

so of course it's supposed to seem actually romantic

Nah, the suit man was just using full sentences one page ago. Having them suddenly start speaking in this clipped speech makes no sense and comes across as dumb. This sounds better.

Just add a few words to make these phrases less like a staccato.

Nah

Why have them speak english at all and not their native language? Why not have the page filled with some eldritch speech with a single english phrase "the trickster" in english since their language has no comparable phrase and just leave us to wonder what is being said and create a more intriguing atmosphere?

Nah

Like, everything sucks but their language getting all weird while the old guy naps off his tryptophan low is effective in a technical sense

paranatural can do it because zack is competent. also your example still has half of a coherent conversation from which we can infer strokes but not vital mystery details

strong female protagonist is not being made by competent people, so while they COULD have executed at a dramatically higher skill level than they currently seem capable of, this is the best thing they could've done

other people have already indicate that the kamen rider comparison falls apart because a webcomic doesn't have vocal tones or body language but i want to say it again just to have fun getting in the dog pile

But are you telling me that a comic book can't convey body language? That you can't give the reader contexts as to tone and subject matter through visuals?

SFP can't

Lord boy was where I realized the artist and the author were not communicating anymore. He was just filling in word bubbles to drawings she had emailed him while working on their other obligations.

that would be a better comic

imagine that comic where an artist is just drawing out a story and sending it to a writer and never ever checks on what the writer is writing
