Art style: Anime / Manga. A close-up shot of two hands holding a fish-shaped taiyaki pastry, steam rising visibly from the center where it has been pulled apart.

Dominant colors are golden browns, warm ambers, and soft reds. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image entirely in "Anime / Manga" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Anime / Manga". Keep the subject, composition, camera angle, lighting direction, and colour palette from the description above — but EVERY surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in the "Anime / Manga" idiom, not in any other medium. Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly): - Naoko: A teenage boy with a lean build and messy raven-black hair that falls softly over his forehead. He has deep, contemplative indigo eyes and a calm expression. He is wearing a traditional Japanese high school navy-blue gakuran jacket with polished brass buttons and a dark grey scarf. He carries a thick, worn sketchbook under his arm. The background is a soft-focus classroom with sunlight filtering through large windows, casting a warm glow. The overall energy is studious, gentle, and creative, rendered in a clean and detailed aesthetic. - Ryoko: A petite teenage girl with high energy and long, chestnut-brown hair tied into a high ponytail with a small yellow clip. She has large, sparkling hazel eyes and a wide, infectious smile. She is wearing a cream-colored school sweater vest over a crisp white collared shirt and a pleated plaid skirt. The background is a vibrant green park with blurred trees and blooming flowers. The lighting is bright, cheerful morning sun that creates a sparkling effect. Her vibe is bubbly, optimistic, and full of life.
