Weird dialogue?

I like this story quite a bit, but had trouble following a lot of the text.
Did anyone else find the dialogue a bit awkward and confusing?

    ya, i found it confusing and choppy, but english isn't the translator's first language so i don't wanna be too harsh. it just kinda ruins the flow and plot of the story though.

    And that's why they're asking for proofreaders x)
    But is amazing tho, without being english their native language. I was expecting a worst work.

    Personally, I wasn't certain translation was the main problem because this wasn't anything like poorly translated mangas I've read in the past.
    The spelling and grammar were actually fine in most passages; it was the content and flow that seemed wonky.
    The text didn't appear to match the story in a lot of panels and often didn't make much sense, mostly because they were too vague.
    Basically, I was left wondering what the heck went wrong, as well as what the author originally meant to say.
    Still, I feel better knowing it wasn't just me because it seemed like I was going a bit crazy while I was reading it.
