Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Beginning here!Miamaska, a webcomic by Jeinu, follows the story of a girl who wound up in another dimension after walking into a parking garage.The world into which Amity wandered has been dragging people from other dimensions into its own for as long as anyone can remember. Unfortunately, most don't live long enough to find their way back. Amity's lucky enough to have appeared in the world near a somewhat non-hostile resident, whose father takes her under his wing for the time being.Currently on indefinite hiatus, with the last update being in October of 2018.

Aliens Speaking English: Subverted. How is it that people from another dimension speak English? They don't. Otherworlders speak and understand all languages. The translation effect is part of what Aleco refers to as the the "miamaska", and either using it or listening to it can cause headaches. Amity hears odd echoes of different words at times, shown to the audience as overlapping word balloons with different text in them (revealed to be alternate translations and/or hidden intent, making the Miamaska an effective lie detector). After Kit and Ket talked to the Masked Man (who is an outworlder named Loric using an actual translator device, possibly indicating that the Miamaska effect isn't universal, since Loric evidently believes the translator is needed here) Ket comments that he didn't hear the Miamaska effect. Loric traverses worlds via technology, thereby circumventing whatever “natural” process endows the Miamaska effect.
