Art style: Studio Ghibli. A medium shot in a small, modest apartment living room during the blue hour of twilight. Akira stands by a low wooden table, placing a thick paper envelope filled with cash onto the surface. Hana stands several feet away in the kitchen doorway, her body angled away, looking at the envelope with a mix of confusion and deep-seated suspicion. The room is cast in cool blue tones from the window, contrasted by a warm, weak glow from a floor lamp. The atmosphere is heavy with unspoken tension and the smell of rain from outside. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 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: Studio Ghibli hand-painted 2D anime (Hayao Miyazaki look) — lush hand-painted backgrounds, soft watercolour-and-gouache textures, gentle pastel palette, warm natural daylight, clean confident line work, cel-shaded characters with simple expressive features. CRITICAL: EVERY element — characters, foliage, trees, animals, sky and the entire environment — must be rendered in this single consistent hand-painted Ghibli idiom. Do NOT mix in photorealism or 3D CGI; keep one cohesive 2D painted look across the whole frame. Every surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in this idiom. Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly): - Akira: A Japanese man in his early 30s with sharp but tired features, short black hair slightly tousled, and expressive dark eyes reflecting deep regret. He wears a clean but inexpensive white button-down shirt with the sleeves rolled up and dark slacks. His posture is slightly slumped, showing humility. He stands in a modest, dimly lit apartment hallway with soft shadows falling across his face. The lighting is a cool evening blue, highlighting the texture of his skin and the sincerity in his gaze. - Hana: A Japanese woman in her late 20s with shoulder-length straight black hair and a slender build. Her eyes are large and cautious, often looking down or away. She wears a simple floral print house dress in muted colors. She is positioned in a small, cluttered kitchen with warm light from a single overhead bulb. Her expression is one of weary hesitation, with her arms crossed protectively. The background features simple wooden cabinets and a small window overlooking a city street.
