Art style: Lo-Fi Anime. A spacious art studio in Sendai filled with the warm glow of hanging Edison bulbs. Large oil paintings lean against exposed brick walls. A wooden easel stands in the center with a canvas depicting a rainy landscape. The camera is positioned at a medium-wide angle from the side. Deep blues, rich browns, and warm golden light dominate the palette. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image in the following art style: 16-bit pixel-art blended with modern webtoon comic illustration in a retro 90s anime aesthetic — crisp thick black outlines, cel-shaded coloring with flat colors and hard dramatic shadows. Gritty urban lo-fi hip-hop vibe. Moody atmospheric lighting with vibrant neon accents (purple, magenta, red) on dark backgrounds. Subtle CRT scanline overlay, glowing elements, expressive sharp anime-influenced features, streetwear clothing. Every surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in this idiom. Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly): - Sato: Strong rule: style --- Lo-Fi Anime ---. A Japanese man in his 40s–50s with a calm, intelligent, and artistic appearance. He has very short dark hair with slight gray at the sides, a neatly trimmed mustache and beard, and round thin-framed glasses that give him a thoughtful look. His facial features are sharp but gentle, with observant eyes and a quiet expression that feels mature and composed. He usually wears simple dark comfortable clothing, fitting the lifestyle of a painter who spends long hours working in a studio. His presence feels peaceful and grounded rather than expressive or loud. He listens more than he speaks and often looks like he is deeply thinking or observing small details around him. In the anime story, he is an oil painter from Sendai who creates realistic city landscapes, rainy streets, portraits, and warm evening scenes. He has a soft-spoken personality, patient mannerisms, and a subtle sense of humor. Around his wife, he becomes gentler and warmer, often quietly watching her take photographs while turning those moments into paintings later in his studio.
