      “Don’t dead open inside” is a thing because they split the text vertically, with each sentence going down in a straight line from the starting point. This comic shares literally nothing in common with that and is in the same format that every Western comic, and book, is in.

      Drink more coffee

      Huh? Top to bottom, left to right, text is over the character saying it. I think that coffee hasn’t yet taken effect.

      As others appointed out, it shouldn’t be that difficult to read. But I would also like to point out that I find it kind of tasteless how often people accuse others of either giving them a stroke or having a stroke because they don’t like something online.
