This looks like it could be fun. Thanks for the chapter, and appreciate the notes at the end!

One small suggestion, if I may. For the pig latin, use a hyphen before the last syllable, so in this instance instead of 'overlay' it would read 'over-lay.' That helps show it's not necessarily the word it appears to be otherwise. The few times I've seen pig latin in print this is generally how it's shown.

Thanks for the chapter. It’s a really nice touch to keep that feel of the era and the work you did explaining the terms on the sides is awesome. I know it’s extra work but I appreciate it. Thanks again.

There's a lot of things about this that make me think I'm going to love it. Jazz, post-war Japan, messy interpersonal drama. Reminds me of my favorite of all time Kids on the Slope. But I also think this has a lot more violence and trauma, which I'm dreading.

My gut tells me her older sister was raped by American servicemen. And this grumpy bass player is pure jerk so far. I guess I'm hoping for a happy ending for Tora, and that I don't have to read too much horror.
