That's also part of the problem, yeah communication problems exist irl, but it's frustrating when authors exaggerate a lack of communication to absurd degrees and all because the series continuing entirely hinges on that concept. I know some people love it, but for me while a series with many communication issues can still be fun...it often doesn't feel like good writing when communication issues are repeatedly used to drag out issues and stretch the story. The characters could communicate, still have character flaws and personality problems, and then drama comes from that. I think it would at least be better than an absurd lack of communication.
I totally get whatcha mean. Sometimes it can just be too much, it breaks the suspension of disbelief... though I DO think people can really be THAT bad with communication sometimes lol
I also wanna note, the art in this is really nice. I like this artist's style.
