Art style: Anime. Full-length view, the entire figure visible from head to feet, standing upright and centered — Kenji, a middle-aged Japanese master chef in his early fifties, tall and lean with broad shoulders and a calm, grounded stance. Square-jawed weathered face, warm tan skin, faint smile lines, steady dark eyes radiating quiet focus. Close-cropped salt-and-pepper hair tied under a folded white cloth headband, neat trimmed grey-flecked beard. He wears a crisp double-breasted white chef's jacket with rolled sleeves over a navy indigo noren-style apron tied at the waist, loose dark trousers, and simple black slip-on kitchen clogs. One hand rests on a well-worn yanagiba knife at his hip. Behind him, a traditional Japanese open kitchen: wooden counter, steaming pot, hanging utensils, soft warm lantern light. Poised, meditative expression, hands precise. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 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.
