A beautiful Japanese teenage girl manga artist, standing in quiet desperation, lost in deep thought. She wears a loose white shirt stained with ink, a navy pleated skirt under a beige painter’s apron splattered with black, barefoot on a floor of torn manga pages. Her unkempt black hair tied in a low ponytail, soft blue ink streaks running through, strands falling over her face. One hand holds a snapped pen, the other a crumpled sketch page. She stands at the corner of an ink-drawn staircase in a surreal 3D manga world made of cardboard and comic panels, with walls covered in screentone textures. Dramatic spotlight mimics manga shading, soft shadows, Unreal Engine meets paper diorama style, cinematic storytelling, paper grain textures, melancholic manga atmosphere.
