Art style: Anime / Manga.
The elderly inmate looks at Sergey with a hint of a sad smile. He takes a sip from his mug and calmly looks into the young man's eyes. His expression shows wisdom and experience. The background is slightly blurred, focusing all attention on the inmate. Dramatic portrait lighting.

FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt):
Render this image entirely in "Anime / Manga" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Anime / Manga". Keep the subject, composition, camera angle, lighting direction, and colour palette from the description above — but EVERY surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in the "Anime / Manga" idiom, not in any other medium.
Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- INMATE: An elderly man of about 60, with a long gray beard and wise, tired eyes. He has many tattoos on his arms. He is dressed in a worn prison robe. He sits calmly, observing the newcomer with interest.
