Art style: Lo-Fi Anime.
Richard's luxurious corner office, floor-to-ceiling windows with lake view, golden hour. Richard seated smug, sliding a paper across the desk reading 'FIRED. NDA.' Jake stands tall, calm, a slight confident smile. Richard's face going white with dawning panic. Cinematic power-shift composition, blood-red and gold accents.

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):
- Jake: 26-year-old man, white, tired hazel eyes with dark circles, short messy brown hair, light stubble, cheap grey hoodie early on then a clean dark tee later, lean build, subtle determined expression
- Richard: 52-year-old man, white, silver slicked-back hair, expensive navy suit, tanned, cold confident face, sharp jaw, faint smug smile
