Grey mono for English glosses.\n- Set Japanese headlines vertically (writing-mode: vertical-rl) in Shippori Mincho B1 800; one word or phrase per scene.\n- Pick a BPM, define B = 60 / BPM, and place every cut and hit on multiples of B.\n- Chapter cards (其ノ壱, 其ノ弐 …) are one beat long on vermilion.\n- Pair each Japanese line with a small English mono gloss so it reads globally; keep copy real and short.\n- Finish with a hanko seal (完 or the brand initial) stamping in with power4.in and a tiny shake."
