Create a photorealistic, cinematic nighttime street scene at the location of{argument name="city and district" default="Shibuya, Tokyo"} The setting is that Japanese culture is stuck in the 1990s, but technology has advanced to {argument name="future year" default="2026"} A parallel universe: no smartphones, no modern minimalist LED lights, only flip phones, pagers, taxis, buses, analog-era nightlife, and dense Showa- to Heisei-era style signs beneath newly built high-rise towers. The perspective is from a wet pedestrian crossing after the rain, looking towards a crowded neon-lit entertainment district, with dazzling reflections on the black pavement. The frame must include four prominent vehicles: a red and white taxi in the lower left foreground, a city bus with its headlights on in the center background, and two dark-colored sedans in the midground traffic. It includes numerous commuters and nightlife pedestrians dressed in 1990s clothing; in the foreground are two key figures with their backs to the camera: a young woman with long hair and a shoulder bag on the left, and a young man in a denim jacket and carrying a shopping bag in the center. The architectural style should blend the 2020s-scale skyscrapers in the background with 1990s Japanese commercial buildings covered in vertical signs, karaoke ads, nightclub notices, CD shop-style posters, pachinko machines, and entertainment billboards. It includes three core billboards: a curved building on the left with red Japanese characters and a large faded screen; a central billboard {argument name="central billboard text" default="Blue Wind"} The billboards feature blue idol group advertisements, and to the right, a tall, cylindrical billboard with striking red Japanese lettering and retro anime-style female illustrations. All signs use Japanese, but the font should be slightly imperfect and atmospheric, rather than a uniform layout. Lighting should create a somber, damp, and cinematic atmosphere, incorporating amber taxi lights, cyan signs, red neon lights, halo effects, deep shadows, visible grain, slight lens soft focus, and a nostalgic 35mm film feel. The composition should resemble a documentary photograph of a fictional historical Tokyo—crowded, vertical, striking, and realistic, presenting…{argument name="weather mood" default="Rain-soaked streets and damp night air"} .
