A modern anime key visual: a young character in an orange jacket caught mid reaction in the foreground, hands raised, with a dense crowd and neon signage stacked behind them. Digital cel shading with sharp hard edged shadow shapes, hard rim light picking the figure out of the dark, saturated accent colours against a cool base palette. Detail concentrated around the face and thinning outward, cinematic framing, slight film grain.
