Even though fonts similar to Anime Ace are classics for dialog, there are comics lettered in lower case as well.
For the purpose of this poll, just consider the speech bubbles and not the sound effects.

Which do you prefer as a reader?
Is it more nuanced, like all caps only for yelling, or lower case only for thoughts/narration?

Uppercase is easier to read when typography is not perfectly horizontal like books and comics never have it, so normal speech should be all caps.
Lowercase only for particular stylistic cases where it makes sense according to personal tastes.

Not me not realizing the text in the manga I've been reading for years was all caps...
