I prefer the "free flow" dialogue text style in Manga. My first book got called out for some of the bubble designs. They said it would be easier for younger readers if the text were more consistent. LOL

That's interesting, Alina. For all I know, maybe manga for younger readers do have more consistent speech balloon designs? I'll have to look into that! :D
