Art style: Anime. A medium shot of Leo standing in the hallway, facing Jax. Leo's expression is calm and neutral, his eyes steady and unfazed by the insult. He holds his backpack strap with one hand. Jax is partially visible in the foreground, his back to the camera. The atmosphere is tense and confrontational, with a palette of muted greys and vibrant blues. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 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: 2D anime cartoon animation — cel-shaded illustration, bold clean black outlines, flat anime shading, hand-drawn anime look with anime facial features and stylised non-realistic rendering of objects, food and environments. NOT photorealistic, NOT live-action, NOT a 3D render, NOT real footage. Every surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in this idiom. Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly): - Leo: 17 years old, lean athletic build with subtle muscle definition, messy dark brown hair that falls over his forehead, deep-set calm brown eyes, and a small faint scar on his left eyebrow. He has a humble but confident posture, often standing with his hands in his pockets. His expression is typically neutral and observant. The background is a soft-focus school hallway with rows of blue metal lockers. Lighting is natural daytime light filtering through high windows, creating a slightly moody and cinematic atmosphere. - Jax: 18 years old, broad-shouldered athletic build, platinum blonde hair styled in a sharp, trendy undercut with shaved sides, piercing arrogant blue eyes, and a perpetual smug expression. He has a dominant and aggressive posture, often leaning against walls with crossed arms. His jawline is sharp and prominent. The background is a bright, modern school gymnasium with polished wooden floors. Lighting is harsh and direct overhead fluorescent light, highlighting his sharp features and creating high-contrast shadows.
