Art style: Studio Ghibli. Full-length view, the entire figure visible from head to feet, standing upright and centered — Max, a young man of about twenty-six, slender and slightly weary in build, roughly average height with a gently rounded face, warm fair skin, and soft brown eyes that carry quiet longing. His dark chestnut hair is a little overgrown and tousled, falling across his forehead, with faint stubble along his jaw. He wears a faded olive-green canvas jacket over a plain cream sweater, worn dark jeans, and scuffed brown leather ankle boots, with a well-traveled canvas satchel slung across one shoulder. He holds the strap with one hand, the other loose at his side, posture a touch hesitant. He stands on a quiet cobblestone street at dusk, unfamiliar rooftops and distant lit windows behind him, a small suitcase resting near his feet. His expression is thoughtful and searching, homesick yet hopeful. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 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.
