Photorealistic Rainy City Manga Storyboard Masterpiece

Goal: Create a black and white manga storyboard / animatic reference sheet showing a quiet rainy night pursuit scene in a neon city, drawn as polished pencil art rather than a finished comic page. Canvas: Vertical page in a 2:3 aspect ratio, white paper background, arranged as exactly 6 rectangular panels in a clean 2 column by 3 row grid with thin black panel borders and narrow gutters. Visual style: Monochrome graphite pencil sketch with heavy cross hatching, soft smudged shading, realistic manga proportions, cinematic framing, wet reflective pavement, blurred crowds, glowing rectangular shop signs rendered only in grayscale, no dialogue balloons, no captions, no sound effects, no printed text. Setting: A dense Japanese style shopping street at night during or just after rain. The pavement is slick and mirror like, reflecting vertical neon signs and streetlights. Background pedestrians carry umbrellas and appear as soft silhouettes. The atmosphere is tense, quiet, and observational. Main subject: A young woman, {argument name="character name" default="unnamed girl"}, with long dark hair and a pale, serious face. She wears a soft newsboy cap, oversized sweatshirt, short pleated skirt, slouchy leg warmers, chunky shoes, a shoulder tote bag, over ear headphones resting around her neck, and a star pendant necklace. Her mood is distant, cautious, and slightly melancholy. Observer character: A second young woman with long dark hair, a dark beret, layered jacket or coat, and a shy hidden posture. She stands partly behind walls, doorways, or street columns, watching the main subject from a distance without approaching. Panel layout and required shots, exactly 6 panels: 1. Top left panel: Over the shoulder view from behind the observer hiding at the edge of a wall on the left foreground. In the mid distance, the main subject walks away down the rain glossed street, centered under glowing signs. 2. Top right panel: Wider street view. The observer leans against a wall on the left side in partial shadow, while the main subject walks in the right foreground toward the viewer, hands in her sweatshirt pockets, headphones and star necklace clearly visible. 3. Middle left panel: Similar stalking perspective from behind the observer on the left foreground, closer to her shoulder and hair. The main subject is far ahead in the center of the street, walking away through the wet reflections and crowd. 4. Middle right panel: Close over the shoulder view of the observer from behind, her dark beret and hair dominating the left foreground. The main subject is small and centered far down the luminous rainy street, emphasizing distance. 5. Bottom left panel: Medium portrait of the main subject walking toward the viewer, filling most of the frame from thighs up. Her cap, long hair, headphones, oversized sweatshirt, pleated skirt, tote strap, and star pendant are clearly drawn. The rainy crowd behind her is blurred and atmospheric. 6. Bottom right panel: Close portrait of the observer leaning beside a wall, looking sideways with a guarded, pensive expression. Show her beret, long hair, layered jacket, collar detail, and subtle jewelry; background is simple vertical wall texture. Composition constraints: Keep all six panels silent and text free. Use consistent character designs across panels. Emphasize cinematic storyboard readability, surveillance distance, wet reflections, and pencil line texture. Do not use color, speech bubbles, captions, modern UI elements, or watermarks.
