The reason it feels stiff is because it lacks gesture. You should always start with a gesture drawing to work out your pose, then add structure and anatomy. I did a quick sketch to show you what I mean.

I don't know anything about Manga, The characters feel alive to me, maybe a bit stiff, but I only say that is your work looks similar to mine, and stiffness is one of my issues. I also struggle with proportion... the character to the right, his rear foot is very small, also there does not seem to be a spring action to it. Overall, better than what I can do. Good job, keep going \m/

Thank you so much for the thoughtful feedback I really appreciate you taking the time to point all that out! I totally get what you mean about the stiffness and proportions; those are things I’m actively trying to improve too. It’s encouraging to hear that the characters still came across as alive, even if a bit stiff that gives me something to build on. And yeah, that rear foot… now that you mention it, it’s definitely off 😂 Your words honestly motivated me and excited to see your work!
