Copy-ready prompt
A dark, resolute, cinematic anime poster, adopting the style of a historical youth comic book cover, inspired by {argument name="series title" default="VINLAND SAGA"} The composition is vertical and dramatic, featuring a figure that closely resembles {argument name="character name" default="THORFINN"} A panoramic view of a young warrior's back, standing on jagged black rocks by a stormy seashore. He wears a weathered brownish-grey hooded robe or cloak with rough fur trim at the collar, a belt around his waist, dark trousers, and worn leather boots. His posture is tense and contemplative, his right hand gripping a short sword pointing downwards, facing the surging waves and spray under a cold, cloudy sky. Behind him, occupying the upper half of the image, is a large profile of his head and wet, disheveled blond hair, rendered with thick ink lines and painterly shadows to create a layered double exposure effect. On the left, there are four vertically stacked, embedded comic-style narrative panels: Panel 1 shows a close-up of the boy gripping the short sword; Panel 2 shows him with his back to a small group of armed men; Panel 3 shows a strong close-up of his eyes; Panel 4 shows him walking alone among tombstones or gravestones. Add a striking typography that blends seamlessly with the Chinese promotional poster: In the upper left corner, place small Japanese title text and the English text "VINLAND SAGA," with "YUKIMURA MAKOTO" below; near the lower left, place a large, distressed, blocky "THORFINN," accompanied by smaller katakana characters. Add multiple lines of white, vertical Chinese quotations on the left and right sides, one of which is emphasized with soft gold. Use desaturated charcoal black, slate gray, steel blue, dirty white, and faded brown tones with high contrast, fog, rain textures, rough brushstrokes, and an epic, melancholic atmosphere about abandoning violence and seeking peace. The overall look should convey the quality of a high-end character poster—emotional, windswept, somber, and richly detailed.
